# Managing Project Boards in OneSuite

Project boards in OneSuite give you a customizable way to organize your project, track tasks and see progress at a glance. They act as a visual roadmap, so your team stays focused on deadlines.

**In this guide you'll learn how to:**

- Open your project board
- Get a quick overview of your projects
- Choose between the Kanban board and the List view

## How to open your project board

Your project board lives inside each project.

1. Click **Projects** in the left sidebar.
2. Open the project you created.
3. Your dedicated project board is there, ready to be customized to your project's needs.

## How to get a quick overview of your projects

Open a project to see its updates and changes in one place.

When you have many projects, the updates and changes are shown as you open each one. This gives you a quick read on where every project stands.

## Should I use the Kanban board or the List view?

Use **Kanban** to see work move through stages, and **List** for a simpler view of your tasks. The choice is optional.

| View | How it works | Best for |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Kanban** | Columns represent task stages, for example "To Do", "In Progress" and "Done". | A clear visual picture of workflow progress. |
| **List** | A simpler list of your tasks. | A compact view of everything in the project. |

The choice depends on your project's nature and your team's preferences. Pick the view that best supports clear communication, task management and efficient project execution.

## FAQs

### Where do I find my project board in OneSuite?

Open the project from **Projects** in the left sidebar. Every project has its own board, ready to be customized to that project's needs.

### What is a Kanban board in OneSuite?

A Kanban board uses columns to represent task stages, for example "To Do", "In Progress" and "Done". It shows your workflow progress visually.

### Can I use a list instead of a Kanban board?

Yes. You can choose between the Kanban board and a simpler List view, depending on your project and your team's preferences.

### How do I get a quick update on all my projects?

Open each project. Its updates and changes are shown as you access it, so you get a quick read without digging through tasks.

### Can I just track project tasks in a spreadsheet instead?

You can, but a spreadsheet won't show stages visually or keep your team's updates next to the tasks. A project board shows progress and deadlines in one place.
