Kanban Boards and Tasks Shared in Google Workspace

I love that it's showing directly in the main menu in my Gmail interface!! The real-time sharing feature works really well, making it easy to keep the whole team aligned without constant updates. Turning emails into tasks, using drag and drop, is simple and saves a lot of time when working from Gmail. One thing I’d love to see, is push notifications to stay on top of updates more easily.

I was looking for an alternative to a couple of more commercial Gmail-based Kanban boards and are very happy to have found this one. It's simple, the UI is clear and it just works.

Works slow but it's a little slow to load & servers sometimes crash for a few hours - not ideal if you have a team of people.

This plugin has been my go-to tool for managing and organising my work for a while now. The natively integrated boards are incredibly efficient—just drag an email to create a task, and manage all the details right within my Google Workspace (where I spent quite a bit of my time anyways). With the latest update, which includes shared boards and task assignments, I’ve integrated this into the product teams I’m working with. No more need for third-party tools!

Kanban Tasks is an indispensable tool for Google Workspace users seeking to enhance productivity and streamline their workflow. Its visual Kanban boards, extensive customization options, seamless integration with Google Workspace, drag-and-drop functionality. Task management experience is fantastic with Kanban Tasks.

I've been testing this plugin since its inception. Love how this integrates with the Google mail interface. Finally no context switching to other tabs and tools. The extension has been in development for a couple of months and I've seen great new features been delivered: task, team sharing/boards, dragging e-mails to task lists and it has an amazingly simple feature to show your current priorities called "getting work done". 5 out of 5 stars!

I've been hunting for a good-looking Kanban for Google for a LONG time. Mostly I've been using Trello, which is great. But having something built into my Google workflow is just brilliant. It's early days, and the app is free at the moment, so it's easy to recommend trying it. And the developer is open to feedback (built into the app!) so let him know what you're missing.

This extension is a game-changer! My Google Tasks are now a visual Kanban board, making it easy to visualize and prioritize. Drag-and-drop keeps me organized and motivated. Highly recommend!
