Task management
Task management. Everyone sees the same work.
Team task management for businesses of any size. Put each client project on a board, a list, a timeline or a calendar. Everyone sees the same tasks, who has them and when they are due.
- No per-seat charges
- Unlimited teammates
Task management
A kanban board for each project
Every task is a card in a column such as To Do, In Progress, In Review or Done. Drag a card to the next column when the work moves, and the whole team sees it at once.
Drag a card to move it
Move a task between columns, and its status changes with it.
Tags and priority on the card
See what is urgent, what kind of work it is and who has it, without opening the task.
Progress from the subtasks
A card with subtasks shows a bar that fills as each one is done.
Task management
The same project as a list
Some people work best from a list. The list view groups a project by status and shows each task with its priority, owner and due date on one line.
Grouped by status
Each status is its own group, so you see what is waiting and what is moving.
Read it at a glance
Priority, owner and due date sit in columns, so a late task is easy to spot.
Subtasks counted
A task with subtasks says how many it has.
Task management
A timeline for the whole project
See every task as a bar from its start date to its due date, with milestones across the top. You see what overlaps, what runs long and what the team finishes this week.
Milestones along the top
Mark the days that matter, such as sign-off and launch, and tick them off when they are done.
Color shows the state
Open work is colored by priority. Finished work turns green.
Today is marked
The current day stands out in the grid, so you see at once what is behind.
Task management
A calendar of what is due
Switch to a month view to see what lands on each day. Tasks sit on their due dates and milestones on theirs, so you see a busy week before it arrives.
Month by month
Use the arrows to move through the months, and press Today to come back.
Milestones on their days
Each milestone shows on its date, beside the tasks due that day.
A dot for each status
The color of a dot tells you whether the task is waiting, moving or done.
Task management
Break a task down, and say what it waits on
Split a large task into subtasks with their own owners and dates. Give it an estimate in hours. Link it to the tasks it waits on and the tasks that wait on it.
Subtasks with their own owners
Each subtask has its own status, priority, owner and due date.
Estimates in hours
Say how long a task should take, then compare it with the time tracked.
Tasks that wait on each other
Tie tasks together, so nobody starts work that waits on something else.
Task management
Track time, then see where it went
Start a timer on a task, or log the hours afterwards. The time report adds them up by project and by person, so you know what a piece of client work took.
A timer or a log
Start and stop a timer, or add the hours you worked afterwards.
Billable or not
Mark an entry as billable, and see the billable hours apart from the rest.
Download it as a CSV
Export the report to a spreadsheet for your client bills.
Task management

Open My Work to see your tasks from every project, grouped by project and sorted by due date. You do not need to visit each board to find what is yours.
Only your tasks
The list is filtered to what is assigned to you, across all your projects.
Personal tasks too
Keep a task that belongs to no project, such as a reminder for Monday.

Tasks tied to people

FAQ
Task management questions
Task management is how a team organizes, assigns and follows its work. Each piece of work is a task with an owner, a due date and a status, so everyone sees what is done, what is moving and what is late.
Project management looks after a whole project: its goals, its dates and its budget. Task management follows the single pieces of work inside it. In WebNesting a project holds the tasks, and you see them as a board, a list, a timeline or a calendar.
Make a project, add your first tasks and invite your team. Open the board to move work along, or the list to read it. To start a new project from an old one, clone it.
