Design principles
If you find something Itemize can't do, it might not be a
bug! We've found that a good process should support rather than
dictate a team's work, so we built Itemize with a few key limitations:
-
List items aren't "assigned" to anyone. We believe that task assignments
should arise from a conversation among team members,
not from a one-line item name on a computer screen. Itemize
is designed for remembering tasks, not for
assigning them.
-
Itemize doesn't track time or provide detailed scheduling functionality.
Lists in Itemize tend to be quite granular, and
you would never be able to schedule every individual
task accurately. We recommend creating general schedules
with other tools (like our own Chronolog™ Capacity
Manager)
and then sending your team members to Itemize for their
specific task lists.
-
Itemize doesn't send any email reminders. We assume that everyone
is doing as much work as they can, and when they're ready
for more, they can check Itemize to see which task they
should do next. Of course, project managers can monitor
a project's process and follow up with team members directly
if they are falling behind.
