Ask HN: What tool do you use for Kanban?
2 points by knes on March 28, 2015 | hide | past | favorite | 8 comments
I'm shopping for one and being able to use Github issues and having swimlanes is a must.

What are you using at work?



Kanbanize. I also looked at LeanKit Kanban before. It seems to be almost similar, maybe a bit better, but a bit more expensive for our team. Not sure what you mean with Github issues, I don't think Kanbanize has Github connection but there is an api so you should be able to build one if you need it.



I'm personally not a fan of rally - I've seen it in some larger environments and it really was a bit of a pig that felt like it was there to serve project managers and not the users. it tried to do too much and the UX was quite poor, buttons everywhere etc... A bit like jira.


JIRA. It has a learning curve but I've found it to be extremely flexible. We use it for sprints as well.


Trello. Its flexible, powerful, and easy to integrate with other apps you use via Zapier and more (disclosure: I work on the Zapier team). I use that with OmniFocus' email drop to keep my todo list and due Trello cards synced, for instance.



Use waffle.io to visualize Github issues.


Trello is best
