Everything work touches, in one system

No more a Kanban board in one app, a timer in another, and a spreadsheet for capacity. Tasks, status, time, and schedule all live in Toggl.

One Kanban tool for planning and progress

Create tasks, move them across columns, assign owners, and track time without leaving the board – the same tasks show up in List, Calendar, and Timeline.

Custom statuses that match your workflow

Rename defaults or add stages like Briefed → In production → Client review → Done. Status changes are workspace-wide so everyone sees the same flow.

Task cards that carry context

Assignees, priority, estimates, dates, tags, projects, subtasks, comments, and attachments sit on the card — context stays with the work, not in a side channel.

Time that travels with the task

Start a timer from the card, compare estimate vs. actual, and feed the same data into reports and capacity — so the board isn’t just visual, it helps you plan better.

Assignees, priority, estimates, dates, tags, projects, subtasks, comments, attachments.
Filters and saved views

Group by status or date
Classic Kanban by status, or date columns (Overdue, Today, upcoming days, Later, No date) for deadline-first planning.
Time on the card
Start/stop timers from tasks, log work against the same card you move, and keep estimate vs. actual visible.
Connected views
Flip to Calendar, Task list, or Timeline without rebuilding the work — same tasks, different lens.
Capacity-aware planning
Approved time off, working hours, and estimates feed capacity and Timeline so the board’s “in progress” work has a real resource picture behind it.

How does Toggl’s Kanban board work?

Set up your statuses

Define the columns that match your process — To do, Doing, Review, Done, or any custom stages.

Create tasks on the board

Add work with project, assignee, estimate, dates, and priority. Break larger work into subtasks.

Organize with drag and drop

Move cards across columns as work progresses; optionally group by date when deadlines matter more than stage.

Filter, save and pin your view

Narrow to your team or projects, hide unused columns, and save the board layout you return to every day.

Track time without leaving the board

Start a timer or log hours on the task so status and effort stay together.

Plan capacity next to delivery

Use Timeline and capacity views to see who’s overloaded before you pull more cards into “In progress.”

FAQs

What is a kanban board?

A kanban board is a visual way to manage work, where columns are stages and cards are tasks that move left to right as work progresses. In Toggl, each card also carries time, estimates, owners, and project context, so the board doubles as your tracker.

What is the best kanban board software?

If you want status and time in one place, Toggl offers the board, timer, estimates, and capacity together. Trello and Jira are other popular options with less of an emphasis on time tracking and capacity planning.

What is the Toggl Kanban board?

Board view is Toggl’s visual workflow for tasks: columns are statuses (or date buckets), cards are tasks, and every card can carry time, estimates, owners, and project context — in the same product where you track hours and plan capacity.

Is the Board view a separate add-on?

No, you don’t have to buy Kanban boards separately. Advanced planning (Timeline, multi-assignee, capacity) and reporting sit on paid plans.

Can I customize the columns?

Yes. Create and rename statuses for your workspace so the board matches how your team actually delivers (e.g. Briefed → In production → Client review → Approved). Changes apply for everyone in the workspace.

Does moving a card update other views?

Yes. Board, List, Calendar, and Timeline share the same tasks. A status or date change on the board is reflected everywhere.

Can I track time from the board?

Yes. Start a timer or log time against the task on the card. Estimates live on the task so you can compare plan vs. actual without a second tool.

Can more than one person own a task?

Yes – tasks support multiple assignees (with estimate split options).

How do I get started?

Sign up for Toggl, open Board view, set your statuses, and create or import tasks. Same account works on web, desktop, and mobile for day-to-day task and time work (Timeline/Reports remain web-first).
