Features

Organize. Collaborate. Streamline.

Issue Boards

GitHub Issues are the most flexible way to manage immediate priorities. ZenHub turns GitHub Issues into real time draggable cards on shared Boards with customizable pipelines - right within the GitHub interface. Use ZenHub Boards as lightweight kanban boards and share information on priorities across your team.

Use Issue Boards to: 
  • Track, manage, and share priorities team-wide
  • Prioritize and visualize your product roadmap
  • Lightweight Kanban boards for GitHub

File Uploads

GitHub only allows you to upload image files. ZenHub adds the ability to upload any type of file into issues and comments, transferring securely to Amazon S3. With this you can really take your workflow to the next level; try using GitHub for everything! Centralized collaboration and transparency are awesome.

Use File Uploads to: 
  • Share resumes and candicate profiles in an HR repo
  • Share large files for design or anything else
  • Centralize knowledge in a way that actually works

+1 Instant Feedback

ZenHub adds "+1" buttons at key places inside throughout the GitHub workflow, allowing team members to provide instant feedback on important issues, commits, pull requests, suggestions, or comments. Removes comment clutter and adds an exciting new dimension to peer feedback.

Use +1 Instant Feedback to: 
  • Focus discussion, declutter GitHub comments
  • Boost team spirit with positive feedback
  • Track priorities, votes, and opinions with less meetings
