About Zenkit

Overview

Zenkit is an all-in-one collaboration platform that brings project management, processes, communication, scheduling, documents, and knowledge sharing into a single workspace. It adapts to Agile, Scrum, Kanban, Waterfall, Lean, or custom methodologies, letting teams change workflows to fit their needs while keeping the interface simple enough to use without training.

A team at Axonic began building Zenkit in 2014, and the platform launched in October 2016. Data is stored on EU servers in Germany and the product is fully GDPR compliant.

Key Benefits

  • Adapts to any methodology, from Agile and Scrum to Kanban, Waterfall, Lean, or your own.
  • Offers multiple views including Kanban, Gantt, table, folder, mind map, chat, and calendar.
  • Provides 1-click migration from Trello, Asana, or Microsoft To Do.
  • Keeps data secure and GDPR compliant on EU servers in Germany.
  • Includes over 100 ready-made reports in a real-time dashboard.
  • Connects to 1500+ tools through Zapier integrations.

How It Works

Zenkit walks teams through five steps. Start by setting up the workflow and choosing how complex the system becomes for each user. Collaborate by keeping chat threads inside tasks, with audio comments and doodles. Manage resource workloads across projects and filter by task, project, or assignee. Generate live reports from over 100 templates, then migrate existing work from Trello, Asana, Microsoft To Do, CSV, or the API.

Use Cases

  • Agile teams run Scrum or Kanban boards while keeping a simple to-do view for non-technical members.
  • Bakery chains and retail owners coordinate headquarters and store operations in one platform.
  • Universities and public institutions share project status and organizational transparency across departments.
  • Healthcare organizations track medical resources in real time across their teams.
  • Project managers balance workloads with resource planning and Gantt scheduling.
  • Small teams start with to-do lists and scale up to enterprise-ready features.

Why Choose This Product

Zenkit distinguishes itself with adaptable interfaces for basic and power users, EU-based dedicated support that resolves requests within 24 hours, and a licensing model that grows in complexity only on the team's terms. Its EU data residency and GDPR compliance appeal to organizations with strict data protection requirements.
