One of the aspects that I liked about Swit is how it provides a tutorial that explains the features that are available, how to use them, and what value they provide. This made the onboarding process easy(even if Swit’s UI is intuitive and easy to navigate). The drag and drop feature was very effective as well because it allowed my team members and I to share files, allocate tasks, and keep everyone coordinated towards the common goal. In addition, Swit is a great tool to intuitively visualize project progression and task progression of all my team members. The project box allows me to know what task I am exactly working on, which part it is in the entire project, and also the team members who are working on tasks closely related to mine.

The collaboration tools that I am currently using are Asana and Slack. Both softwares have strengths and weaknesses, but I think the most significant weakness is having to use both softwares separately. Swit seems to be the solution to this issue, which is why even if it is difficult to implement new software, it made me want to switch to Swit right away! The task management aspect of Swit is much more intuitive than Asana. Especially the feature of being able to easily drag and drop tasks from the kanban board makes project management so much easier. I always found it inefficient having to create and manage tasks on Asana, then communicate with team members about tasks in more detail(coordinate as well) on Slack. Whenever a task is created, completed, or altered by my team members or I, I would be notified on Slack, but since this is happening on two different platforms the visibility of task management is not efficient. However, Swit shows all of this information on a Kanban board, which is a much more efficient form of communication.

The best aspect about Swit is its intuitive user interface that is very easy to navigate. As a product designer myself, I am obsessed with designs that are intuitive and easy to follow, because I believe that is one of the crucial factors that prevent churn by early users. Swit also increases productivity greatly by integrating chat and task management together. Previously, I had to always move back and forth between Slack and Asana. I realized that most of the time the conversations going on Slack and the actual tasks and projects on Asana are not in sync. Moreover, having to update tasks manually on Asana made the experience very inconvenient, which os why only a part of my team members use Asana. However, Swit found the perfect fit between chat and task management, creating an environment that provides consensus to the entire workflow.
