Features of Zotek8 PM Lite

See the same tasks in three ways.

• The Dashboard shows the progress of every project you have opened at once. Tasks and sub-tasks carry an estimate in days or hours, and the project name sits next to the logo so you can switch projects in one click.
• Sort by ID or start date. On the Gantt, Export copies the chart you are looking at (with your filters and sort) into a “Gantt” sheet of the master file: colour-coded day cells with progress shading, ready to share.
• Every task shows its #id, and all three views list tasks in id order.
• Board: drag cards between status columns.
• List: change status and assignee right in the row.
• Gantt: bars coloured by status, with progress, assignee and a “Today” line. Click a bar to edit it in a popup.
• Search and filter all three views by sprint, status, assignee, priority, type and due date.

Everything about a task in one place.

• Title, description, status, priority, type, sprint, assignee, dates and progress.
• Changes are saved automatically.
• Documents, sub-tasks and comments live on the same page.

Break work down by one level.

• Add a sub-task with the ＋ button on a Board card or List row, from the Gantt popup, or on the parent's page. A popup opens, so you never leave the screen you are on.
• The parent shows how many are done and averages their progress automatically.
• Sub-tasks follow the parent's sprint by default and are indented in the list and Gantt.

Plan iterations with a name, goal and dates.

• Each sprint has its own status (Planned, Active and Completed by default).
• A progress bar shows finished tasks at a glance.
• Each sprint has its own document folder.

Reorganise sprints without leaving the sprint page.

• “Add existing tasks” opens a searchable list; tick several and add them at once.
• Move a task to the backlog or another sprint from its row, or remove it with ✕.
• Tick multiple rows to move or remove them in bulk.
• Sub-tasks always travel with their parent.

A release note for every sprint, with no manual writing.

• Built from the sprint's tasks: completed work grouped by type, unfinished work as carry-over, and the contributors.
• Always reflects the current data.
• Copy as Markdown, download a .md file, or save it as a Google Doc in the sprint's folder.

Every task and sprint can have its own documents.

• A dedicated Drive folder is created when you add the first document.
• Create a Google Doc, link an existing file (added as a shortcut, so the original stays where it is) or upload from your computer.
• Removing a document from a task never deletes the file on Drive.

A shared library for the whole project.

• Browse the Shared Docs folder and its subfolders.
• Create folders and Google Docs, upload files or link existing ones.
• Open any item in Drive with one click.

Discuss right inside each task.

• The sender, email and time are recorded by the server from the Google account.
• Editors and admins can comment; viewers can read.

People hear about new work without you chasing them.

• When a task is assigned to someone else, they get an email (sent from the assigner's Gmail) and/or a message in a Google Chat space.
• The email language follows the assigner's interface language.
• If sending fails, the task is still saved and a warning is shown.

Start with any folder you can access.

• Browse My Drive or Shared with me, search by name, or paste a folder link.
• On first use the app creates _PM_Master, Docs and Shared Docs inside the folder.
• Shared drives are not supported yet.
