GitScrum Multiple Projects Boards

Managing Multiple Projects with Multiple Boards

GitScrum's Multiple Projects Boards feature allows you to create dedicated spaces for organizing tasks based on specific workflows or categories. Each board represents a distinct aspect of your project, such as "Development," "Marketing," or "Support." This structure helps teams manage tasks more efficiently, maintain clarity, and keep the project on track without cluttering a single board with too many unrelated tasks.

GitScrum Multiple Boards

Even though each board is tailored to a specific focus, all boards within the project can share the same columns and workflow (e.g., Todo , In Progress , Testing , Done ). This consistency ensures that team members follow a uniform process across all boards while still benefiting from the separation of concerns.

Why Use Multiple Boards?

Task Segmentation: Break down complex projects into manageable components by dedicating boards to specific areas of focus.

Improved Focus: Teams working on different aspects of the project can concentrate on their respective boards without being distracted by unrelated tasks.

Consistency: By sharing the same workflow and columns across all boards, teams maintain a standardized approach to task management.

Scalability: As your project grows, you can add more boards to accommodate additional workflows or categories without compromising organization.

Practical Examples and Use Cases

Software Development Project

Boards: Create separate boards for "Frontend Development," "Backend Development," "Quality Assurance," and "Deployment."

Workflow: All boards share the same columns: Todo , In Progress , Testing , Done .

Use Case: The "Frontend Development" board focuses solely on UI/UX tasks, while the "Backend Development" board handles server-side logic. Both boards follow the same workflow, ensuring consistency in task progression. Meanwhile, the "Quality Assurance" board ensures that all tasks pass rigorous testing before moving to "Done."

Marketing Campaign

Boards: Set up boards for "Content Creation," "Social Media Management," "Email Marketing," and "Analytics."

Workflow: Each board uses the same columns: Todo , In Progress , Review , Published .

Use Case: The "Content Creation" board manages blog posts, videos, and graphics, while the "Social Media Management" board handles scheduling and posting. Both boards follow the same workflow, ensuring that all content is reviewed and published consistently.

Event Planning

Boards: Dedicate boards to "Venue Setup," "Speaker Coordination," "Promotion," and "Logistics."

Workflow: All boards share the same columns: Planning , Execution , Review , Completed .

Use Case: The "Venue Setup" board tracks tasks related to decorations and seating arrangements, while the "Speaker Coordination" board handles presentations and schedules. Both boards follow the same workflow, ensuring that all aspects of the event are planned and executed seamlessly.

Product Launch

Boards: Create boards for "Product Development," "Market Research," "Packaging Design," and "Customer Feedback."

Workflow: All boards use the same columns: Idea , Design , Implementation , Launch .

Use Case: The "Product Development" board focuses on creating prototypes, while the "Market Research" board analyzes target audiences. Both boards follow the same workflow, ensuring that the product is developed and launched according to plan.

How to Use Multiple Boards Effectively

Define Clear Categories: Identify the distinct areas of your project that require separate attention and create boards accordingly.

Standardize Workflow: Ensure that all boards within the project share the same columns and workflow to maintain consistency and avoid confusion.

Assign Ownership: Assign specific teams or individuals to manage each board, ensuring accountability and focused execution.

Regular Sync Meetings: Conduct periodic meetings to align all boards and ensure that dependencies between them are addressed.

Leverage Cross-Board Visibility: Use GitScrum's features to view progress across all boards at once, helping you identify bottlenecks or areas needing attention.

Benefits of Using Multiple Boards with Shared Workflow

Uniformity: A shared workflow ensures that all teams follow the same process, reducing discrepancies and improving collaboration.

Flexibility: While the workflow remains consistent, each board can focus on its specific tasks, allowing for specialized management without sacrificing standardization.

Transparency: Team members can easily understand the status of tasks across all boards, fostering better communication and coordination.

Scalability: As the project expands, you can add more boards while maintaining the same workflow, ensuring that the system remains manageable.

Practical Examples and Use Cases

Example Scenario: A Software Company

Imagine a software company working on a new application. They decide to use GitScrum's Multiple Projects Boards feature to organize their work:

Board 1: Frontend Development

Columns: Todo , In Progress , Testing , Done

Focus: UI/UX design, frontend coding, and user interface testing.

Board 2: Backend Development

Columns: Todo , In Progress , Testing , Done

Focus: Database management, API development, and backend logic.

Board 3: Quality Assurance

Columns: Todo , In Progress , Testing , Done

Focus: Bug tracking, performance testing, and user acceptance testing.

Board 4: Deployment

Columns: Todo , In Progress , Testing , Done

Focus: Server setup, deployment scripts, and release management.

All boards share the same workflow, ensuring that tasks move through the same stages regardless of their category. This consistency makes it easier for cross-functional teams to collaborate and understand the overall progress of the project.
