Zenkit 3.0 is a new way for users to share their work online with published and embedded collections, a documented API, new integrations, brand new mobile apps, and more (for free!)
Hi Product Hunt! 🎉 We’re so excited to announce the release of Zenkit 3.0. Over the years we’ve worked hard to make Zenkit the most flexible, easy to use project management tool any team could ask for. This update marks another step in that direction. Here’s some of what we’ve included in this release:
🎉 Published collections: make any Zenkit collection public on its own webpage
✨ Embeddable collections: visitors can interact with collections on any website
🎨 A redesign based on the new Zenkit design framework
🤓 A publicly documented API
📱 Multitasking support for iPad
😎 'Assigned to me' filter for My Calender
👨👩👧👦 MS Teams integration (coming soon)
📅 iCalendar subscriptions to sync with any calendar app
We’re most excited about the new published collections - you can use them to easily share project updates with clients via a link, publish a roadmap online, or embed calendars to publicize events. They’re also optimized for search so anyone can find your collections in seconds (and you can add meta descriptions!).
If you’d like to give it a try, you can sign up for a free Zenkit account today 👍 If you’ve been with us for a while, tell us what you think! We’re excited to see what you’ll build and share with Zenkit 3.0

I love Zenkit. At first sight, it looks like an easy to use tool but if you have worked with it for a while it's getting better every minute. It got so many features and possibilities for your business.
Pros:
Awesome Design and a powerfull tool for your business.
Cons:
It needs a bit of time to get to know all possibilities and features in Zenkit.
Thank you so much for sharing your feedback, Jessica! We're working on making it easier for new users to learn how it all works, so you won't run into this issue in the future 😊
This looks really good, congrats on all the progress!
Would love to learn more about the new Zenkit design framework that you mentioned. Is this something that's publicly available or just a better way for your team to build consistent experiences across platforms?
@einkoenig Hey Jan! That's a great question, thank you 👌
Building a consistent experience accross platforms was our main motivation for building the new framework, however it's also totally changed the way we develop. Now any developer on our team, front-end or back-end, can implement features they build immediately without having to send it all over to a designer. It also means that whenever a new feature is released, it's already optimized for each type of device 😎
We are considering releasing it in the future, but we're not sure when or how, so it may take a while if we do decide to publish it.
@lulu_93 Great question Lulu! We don't have that option for published collections yet - once they're published, anyone will be able to find them. We're considering adding a password option in the future, but the best thing to do for now is encourage the people you're sharing with to sign up for Zenkit 😉

The Zenkit product is, in my opinion, THE leader in this 'getting work done collaboratively' world. I work for a large company which is moving forward with AGILE techniques so Kanban and concept maps thinking are comfortable here. However, the corp standard is not as nimble as Zenkit, so I still find myself leaning on it in order to run my strategies and tasks without leaving anything behind.
The move toward being Microsoft-friendly is huge! Thank you.
Keep up the great work.
@karl_guenther1 Thank you for your kind words, Karl! 🙏 We're so glad to hear you love Zenkit so much, and that it helps you run your projects more nimbly. Thanks for sticking with us!

Pros:
It really helps keeping on track with my business and personal tasks.
It's a great tool for working together in a team.
Pretty flexible and powerful
Nice UI and UX
Cons:
It takes quite some time to fully unlock the potential of it
I am the CTO of a startup and since we stared using Zenkit for our development processes it really improved our workflow!
@yojota Thank you so much Jota! I'm so glad to hear that you and your team work so effectively with Zenkit 😎

Thanks a lot for the update! Just a quick question:
According to your roadmap, a Gantt chart feature is in the works. When will you be releasing it? Would be nice to get an answer!
Best Regards
@matthias_binder Thanks Matthias! We're so glad you like the apps 🙌

Awesome product! Been using it for maybe 2 years after switching from Trello for personal projects and organization, and I wouldn't swtich back. The biggest things for me are the ease and power of tagging and filtering and the ability to switch between views.
A few things on my wishlist: app data could be quicker to load (I don't want to wait for network), I want the ability to create a field on a single card (not across the whole collection)
@tyler_couto1 Thank you so much Tyler! We're so glad you've been with us for so long 😊 I've noted your feedback and sent it along to our dev team. If you'd like to expand on how you'd use single fields, I'd love to know more!
