## Key features

- **Switchable views:** The same items can be shown as a table, Kanban board, Gantt chart, list, mind map or calendar, and a tab bar switches between a project's views.
- **Gantt chart:** Projects are scheduled on a timeline with lag and lead, milestones and critical path. The plan comparison table lists advanced Gantt features from Business.
- **Global Kanban and calendar:** A global Kanban board gathers tasks from every project in one place, and a global calendar does the same for events and dates.
- **Custom fields, formulas and references:** Text, number, date, label and formula fields describe each item, and references link items across collections like a relational database.
- **Automation:** Automated actions run when tasks or data change. Monthly runs are capped at 300 per seat on Plus and 3,000 per seat on Team and Business.
- **Offline mode and desktop apps:** Zenkit can be used without a connection, including in the web version, and has apps for macOS, Windows, Linux, iOS and Android.

## Good for

- Teams that want one dataset as a board, Gantt chart, table or mind map
- Organizations that want project data kept on servers in Germany
- Linux users, since a Linux desktop app sits beside macOS and Windows
- Teams moving over from Trello, Asana or Microsoft To Do

## Worth knowing

- No free plan is listed: after the 14-day trial, access is restricted, usually to data export, unless a subscription is activated.
- Plus is capped at 10 users, and the comparison table shows Gantt chart, custom fields and user roles starting on Team even though the Plus card lists a Gantt chart.
- API access, SSO (SAML) and SCIM provisioning need the Business plan.
- Prices exclude VAT, and every organization member, including owners and administrators, counts as a paid seat.
