Let us take a quick look at how task management and collaboration simplifies our work

Robust Project & Task Management

Sitting around the table or across the globe, task management, collaboration and communication is just the same.

  • Task Groups

You can break your projects into multiple Task Groups. And each of your task groups will have unlimited tasks, sub-tasks and sub sub-tasks. Task Groups allow you to break your project into smaller manageable chunks with detailed tasks breakdown.

You can use Task Groups for:

  • Very large complex tasks involving multiple teams
  • Modules or phases of your projects depending on specific project needs
  • Sprints if running Agile Scrum Project Management

 

  • Task Types and Labels

Proper classification of tasks is very important when running projects. There is also an added complexity when you have specific project types with tasks related to finance, research, content, ideas, issues, billing, design, quality assurance etc.

Over time this could be very confusing and tasks may fall through the cracks. Custom Task Types and Labels allow you to create as many categories and tags as you need to ensure smooth task execution.

Tips: – You can filter by task types and labels from your task list to focus on what you truly have to!

 

  • Project Templates

Work smarter with Project Templates in Orangescrum. Most projects we run have a significant tasks overlap and it is frustrating to create the same set of tasks repetitively.

Create pre-defined templates for your most common project types once and reuse them forever. Just apply them on the “Create Project” form during project creation and you get all your task groups, tasks, subtasks created with a single click.

Learn how you can save time and be efficient with Project Templates.

 

Tip: – You can create unlimited project templates within Orangescrum.
