Updated: 04 September 2024

Programa’s Project Management system offers three distinct views—Board, List, and Timeline—each designed to provide a unique perspective on your workflow. These views allow you to manage your projects in the most efficient way, depending on the stage or nature of your tasks.

Board View: Visualize Your Workflow

The Board View offers a Kanban-style layout that brings your project tasks to life visually. By moving tasks across columns like “To Do,” “In Progress,” “In Review,” and “Done,” you’ll find it easier to manage your workflow and keep things moving forward. Key benefits include:

  • Instant Project Status: Get an immediate sense of where tasks are and spot bottlenecks before they impact deadlines.
  • Effortless Task Prioritization: Simply drag and drop tasks to reorganize priorities based on urgency.
  • Workload Overview: See who’s working on what at a glance, promoting better workload management and accountability.

This view encourages a shared understanding among team members, reducing the need for constant status updates or meetings.

List View: Dive into the Details

The List View is designed for when you need a deeper dive into the specifics of your project. It presents tasks in a structured, easy-to-scan format, making detailed reviews and planning effortless. Here’s what you can expect:

  • Comprehensive Overview: See essential task information, including the task name, phase, assigned team member, due date, and accumulated time.
  • Sorting & Filtering: Quickly find tasks that are overdue, upcoming, or assigned to specific team members.
  • Time Tracking: View how much time has been logged on each task, making it easier to manage budgets and resources.

This view is perfect for thorough project reviews, ensuring that no task or deadline is overlooked.

Timeline View: Strategic Project Oversight

The Timeline View offers a high-level overview of your entire project, mapping out tasks and phases along a customizable timeline. This view helps you plan with long-term goals in mind:

  • Align with Broader Goals: Easily sync your project timeline with overall business objectives or external deadlines.
  • Anticipate Conflicts: Spot overlapping phases or potential bottlenecks before they become issues.
  • Informed Resource Allocation: Make strategic decisions on how to allocate your team’s time and resources based on workload distribution.

This bird’s-eye view allows you to manage projects proactively, ensuring that you stay ahead of potential challenges.

Seamless Integration for Holistic Project Management

The real strength of Programa’s Project Management system lies in the seamless integration of these three views. Switching between them offers you a complete picture of your project’s status at every level:

  • Board View for daily task management, keeping your team agile and focused.
  • List View for detailed reviews and tracking key information.
  • Timeline View for strategic oversight and long-term planning.

Together, these views create a fluid and dynamic project management experience, allowing you to see the right details at the right time—without added complexity.
