Currently, there are hundreds of these programs on the market, ranging from basic free online programs all the way to highly complex products that allow the user to manage every aspect of the venture from lead generation all the way to final payment. In order to help you navigate this complex market, we wrote this buyer’s guide in order to improve your understanding of the functions, features and buying decisions that need to be considered when you assess your options—and there are many.

Microsoft initially released Planner in 2016 as an alternative to its decades old, separately sold, and more complex project management tool known as Project.1 Following the blueprint established in other project management web tools such as Trello, Asana, and AirTable, Planner builds its project management and organization framework from the Kanban board, a workflow visualization tool much like a whiteboard covered in Post-It notes. The main differences between Planner and its sibling web tools is that each tool uses different terminology to describe how its virtual whiteboard works, and while Trello, Asana, and AirTable have free versions and subscription versions, Planner only comes bundled in a subscription package.

  • How to Setup Infrastructure for Your Project
    How to Setup Infrastructure for Your Project Introduction Once you’ve selected a project to work on and you find yourself part of a project team, many of the most important aspects of making your project a success have nothing to do with implementing data science algorithms. Setting up an effective system of communication — both within your team and between your team and the other essential partners in your project (your Teaching Fellow, Pavlos, and the client) will more than anything else determine the extent to which you succeed. In AC297r we’ll be helping you with all aspects of managing an successful project. We’ve already made available to you some other resources for managing the client relationship (see Isaac’s wonderful presentation), and your teaching fellow and Pavlos will mentor you through maintaining effective communication strategies with the AC297r staff. In this document I’d like to focus on some strategies and suggested software to help you setup an effective inter-team communications workflow. Basic Workflow Overview You want to think of a communications infrastructure as helping foster workflows to support some of the basic modes of communication you’ll engage in within your team. What are some of these modes of communication? They vary from team to team, but in small semi-distributed software and scientific teams we’ve found that the following modes or patterns frequently repeated Synchronized non-memorialized and urgent (phone_text_video) Asynchronous, memorialized (email) Synchronous, memorialized, group (group chat) Organizational, accountability (task/project management) Strategic, collaborative (documents) File management (files) VCS (repositories) Not all of these modes are needed, and all of these modes can be managed via work-arounds without the need of infrastructure support, but we’ve found that setting up the right infrastructure can really boost team productivity and the overall likelihood of project success.

  • The Ultimate Guide to Remote Teamwork … Checklists & Hacks for Teams Working Virtually
    The Ultimate Guide to Remote Teamwork … checklists & hacks for teams working virtually © Henry Rose Lee - May 2020 Working from Home (WFH) Checklist Getting yourself organised and prepared to do effective WFH: Part 1 • Workspace: Create an efficient, dedicated workspace with great lighting, robust internet, and limited distractions. Where possible use the same space every day to create a positive work anchor. • Work Preparation: Get up at the same time each working day. Get dressed in “work” gear (i.e. not pyjamas) and create a routine. • Work List: Plan every day what you’ll be doing, ahead of time. At the end or start of every day, have a TO DO list – and build in 30% flexibility to cope with unexpected interruptions. • Working Hours: Set up “office hours” and do work you would normally do then. Focus guilt-free on personal actions during “after office hours”. • Time Management: Avoid too many work calls/meetings by scheduling meetings/working hours into 120-minute chunks of time. • Breaks: Take a break from work (and screens) every 120 minutes for 5-10 minutes to relax and recharge. And have a full lunch break. • Personal Rhythm: Do the important and urgent work at your best time of day. Could be morning, afternoon or evening. Your choice • Blocked Out Work Time: Schedule 1 or 2 days a week without calls or meetings to focus on projects, urgent/important deadlines or tough tasks. • Calendar Etiquette: Clearly schedule each diary element such as call, meeting, lunch-break, strategic work, project work etc. • Distractions: Shut down social media/other tech and focus on work completion.

  • Task Management/PM Software Comparison ASANA
    Task Management/PM Software Comparison By Mark Gerow and Kate Armstrong This PDF is a comparison of a collection of tools available for task and project management. The opinions expressed below are solely of the two authors. We hope you find this informative and useful! Tools Covered: Asana Excel Projects Online RealTime Board SharePoint Smartsheet Teams + Planner Trello ASANA General Interface Design In this review I looked at the free version of Asana. The paid version offers more features that I did not test. Overall, the UI is very simple and intuitive. Everything centers on simple task lists: General Usability Clicking on a single task brings up a form that allows you to add a description, assign the task, set a due date, and add comments. You can also duplicate tasks. Unlike some other tools reviewed, Asana does not allow you to add custom fields to tasks or projects. Use of Common Terminology No jargon used here. Asana keeps it very simple: project, task, Due date, Comment, etc. Visualization Capabilities The basic version comes with three views: List (shown above), Calendar, and Conversations. A timeline and progress view is available in the paid versions. You can also see all files uploaded for a project. It’s pretty clear that the free version is intentionally limited, and offers to upgrade to “premium” popup regularly. Flexibility with Customizations There does not appear to be much customization that can be done in Asana. With Asana you create projects, add members, add tasks with basic tracking data, and your done. In this respect I would place Asana somewhere between Microsoft Planner and Smartsheets – more powerful than the former, but not as flexible as the latter.
