List, board, calendar, timeline: choosing the right task view

Kliently shows one set of tasks in five different views. They’re not separate lists — change a task anywhere and it updates everywhere. Here’s when each one shines.

Board

The default for most teams. Columns are your statuses; drag a card to move it. Best for daily stand-ups and seeing where work is stuck.

List

A dense, grouped view of everything. Great for triaging a big backlog when a board would mean too much scrolling.

Calendar

Tasks plotted on their due dates. Use it when deadlines drive the work and you want to spot a crunch week before it arrives.

Table & Timeline

Table is a spreadsheet — edit status, priority, and custom fields inline, or scan estimates and tracked time in columns. Timeline draws each task as a start-to-due bar, so you can see sequencing across a project at a glance.
