Compare Kerika vs. Microsoft Planner

Kerika is an easy-to-use task management tool that works seamlessly with Google Apps. Its flexible, scalable boards can be customized for each project with its own workflow and team. Users can create boards using templates or from scratch. They can even create their own templates. Kerika works seamlessly with Google Workspace and Box: you can create new Google documents or Box Notes from inside the app and have them shared automatically with your board teams. All the admin work related to file sharing is handled by Kerika. Other apps flood you with notifications; Kerika's unique design highlights exactly what you need to catch up on, making it perfect for remote and distributed teams. (Due dates even automatically adjust for each user's timezone!) A unique Highlights feature makes it easy to handle very large boards, while the Dashboard provides a real-time view of everything that's going on, across all your boards. (Which means: no more writing status reports!) WIP Limits help avoid bottlenecks for Kanban-style work; Search works wonderfully; and there's a built in Whiteboards feature. Kerika is used worldwide by governments, nonprofits, global companies, startups, schools and colleges.

Streamline collaboration with Microsoft Planner, transforming disorganized teamwork into efficient productivity! This tool simplifies the process for teams to initiate plans, allocate and organize tasks, share documents, engage in discussions about ongoing projects, and monitor progress updates. You can easily access Planner via the Office 365 app launcher with just one click.

The My Tasks view offers a detailed overview of all your assignments and their current statuses across every plan you are involved in. When collaborating on a project, each team member has clear visibility into who is handling which tasks.

Additionally, the intuitive interface encourages all users to stay engaged and informed as projects progress.
