A fantastic Kanban tool for multi-team coordination.

Kanban Zone is extremely intuitive and easy to use and has incredibly responsive support. The “mirror” feature is a powerful way to show what another team is doing. Highly recommended!

It’s simple to set up and change. They have plenty of templates, and you can set your boards up almost any way you like. I’ve been in process improvement for quite some time. This is the first product I would endorse.

I love that they’ve kept the UI simple and very easy to use. It promotes accountability and reduces the team friction caused by vaguely assigned tasks. Kanban Zone has helped me become organized without even trying hard :)

Frequently Asked Questions

Do you only provide services online or also in person?Dimitri Ponomareff2024-10-21T05:37:24-07:00

Do you only provide services online or also in person?

Our services can be delivered online or in person. We have found that the level & quality of engagement and participation is quite comparable. However, services that can be provided virtually are much more cost effective. It eliminates the time and cost of travel, which would be billed to customers, and increases the amount of time a coach is available to work directly with a customer. For example, when coaching virtually we can quickly schedule or join a session with little lead time. This permits us to be there when we are most needed, instead of just when we are physically there in person.

What is the cost of professional services?Dimitri Ponomareff2022-04-09T02:24:52-07:00

What is the cost of professional services?

Our rates are based on the type of services and the level of seniority of the assigned coach. Since professional services are customized for each customer, we provide the flexibility of working from a set of billable hours or a monthly retainer model. Once we confirm the ideal program for our customers, we provide a Statement of Work (SOW) and track all deliverables in Kanban Zone. For Kanban Zone enterprise customers (200+ licenses), professional services and software subscriptions can be combined in a custom plan.

Do you include free coaching with your Kanban Zone software?Dimitri Ponomareff2024-10-21T05:34:35-07:00

Do you include free coaching with your Kanban Zone software?

Yes. The level of free coaching provided is determined by your software subscription. Also, our support team is always ready to help and can request a coach to work directly with our customers when needed. You may also submit a request to our support team to work with a coach.

Do you only provide professional services on your Kanban Zone software?Dimitri Ponomareff2024-10-21T05:36:49-07:00

Do you only provide professional services on your Kanban Zone software?

No. We always use our Kanban Zone software to track and deliver our services. However, some customers may already have multiple tools in place and only need us to coach and train them using their current platform. Although we strongly believe that Kanban Zone is the ideal software, we focus on the mutually agreed goals of the engagement. Switching to Kanban Zone may or may not be part of the solution. If not, then we ensure that the customer has the resources to implement what’s needed on their current platform and only use the Kanban Zone software to model the ideal solution.
