We considered how to visualize work processes in the daily operations of different companies and departments. Strangely enough, despite the diversity of companies and even industries, work processes are remarkably similar. These processes include task distribution, time tracking, file sharing, meetings, and phone calls—all of which are distributed among people with different roles.
At the same time, many participants in the process don’t need to see the entire workflow, as they are only part of something larger. According to our idea, all these processes can be connected, divided, and visualized in a way that allows any company to clearly see and understand what is happening at different stages of their workflows.
The entire process visualization happens on a board. Nodes are connected to each other, providing users or teams access to the content within them.
All tasks that appear during the visualization of processes go directly to your personal section with Kanban boards.
Since there are many events, meetings, and interactions in the processes, to prevent confusion about what’s happening and where, all events are displayed on a unified calendar.
All chats, regardless of the projects or node boards, are placed separately in a dedicated chat section for easy tracking.
Typically, many employees are involved in various processes, which can be hard to monitor. In Nodes, we’ve implemented a process to track employee workloads using Gantt charts.
Time intervals show the employee's full workload, as well as detailed information directly related to Kanban boards, tasks, and the calendar.
For easier file sharing, we developed a storage system. Teams and individuals can store various documents, share access, and attach them to nodes directly from the storage.
We thought about how to integrate nodes with familiar services and developed a plugin store for integrations. Here, third-party developers can upload their advanced functionalities to enhance nodes and process visualizations.
Creators can establish their own public profiles, collecting feedback on their technical solutions. They can also run their own blog, building audience loyalty.
