Track Your Projects with ProjectFlow!
ProjectFlow is a new project tracking tool that helps you get a clear, big-picture view of all the things you’re working on. It’s the latest project from Barrel, the NY-based digital agency that brought you Launch Effect. We’ve been using ProjectFlow to organize and track new features, marketing initiatives, and performance tweaks for Launch Effect.
Here’s a detailed look at the Launch Effect ProjectFlow board:
We divided the Columns into six phases: Ideas, Planning, Design, Development, Testing & QA, and Marketing.
Columns are editable and moveable—just drag and drop!
For Block Content (the rectangular units on the board), we added “Project” and “People” and disabled the Second Level settings (“Client”) since it wasn’t applicable to our needs.
Note: You can opt for a tall view of your Board by resizing your browser window. This is optimal for tablets.
Click on the Board Settings icon to customize the Board Name, Board Content, and Block View.
Since we’re constantly getting new feature requests from our users, the Ideas Column is a nice bucket to keep track of the requests.
To add a new project, simply click on the Add New icon on the top header and a pop-up modal will prompt you to fill out the details of the new project.
Once we’re done with a project, we move it to the Success modal so that it gets archived.
All successful projects are viewable by clicking on the Success icon on the top header.

While it lacks the rich features of a Trello or Pivotal Tracker, we like the simplicity of ProjectFlow and love seeing the colors. We think it can be a very useful tool for web designers and developers who’re juggling a number of projects and need to get that big-picture view to get a nice visual of their full workload.
