JIRA is designed so that issues must be assigned to a single individual to prevent tasks from being overlooked. A team lead or manager should assign issues out to individuals, or your users will pick from a list of issues that they have the option to take on.

However, if you want to configure JIRA to allow issues to be assigned to multiple users there are a few option for doing so:

It is easy to still setup a queue the a group can pick from, or affiliate an issue with group in addition to having it assigned to an individual within that group:

Managing Issues via a Queue

You can configure your JIRA project to assign issues to an 'Unassigned' "queue" by default, which your users can then pick issues from.

To do this, set up the following:

• Configure your JIRA project to allow the 'default assignee' to be 'Unassigned' (see Defining a Project ).
• Ensure that 'Allow unassigned issues' is set to ON in your General Configuration settings ( Administration > Global Settings > General Configuration ).
• Set any issues that you want to be in the queue to be 'Unassigned'.
• Create a dashboard page with a filter that lists all 'Unassigned' issues, share the dashboard page and request that interested members of the group display the shared page on their dashboards. See Managing Multiple Dashboard Pages for instructions.

Managing Issues via Group Ownership

You can add a custom field to store which users and groups should be associated with a given issue. This is particularly useful for projects where a team owns all issues of a particular type.

• Add a group picker custom field to your issues.
• Configure an email notification in your project's notification scheme to be sent to the 'Group Custom Field Value'.

An issue can now be "assigned" to the group by selecting the appropriate group in the group picker. An email notification will be sent to the group.

Managing Issues via a User Account

You can create a JIRA user account to represent a group of people (e.g. 'developers') and assign issues to this user.

• Create a JIRA user to represent the group (see Managing Users ).
• (Optional) Create an email mailing list for this group (not a JIRA function) and set the mailing list email as the JIRA user's email address.
• Create a dashboard page showing issues assigned to this user, share the dashboard page and request that interested members of the group display the shared page on their dashboards. See Managing Multiple Dashboard Pages for instructions.

An issue can now be assigned the new "user" representing the group and your users can track the issues on their dashboards. If you have set up a mailing list, your users will also be notified by email.

Managing Issue via Sub-Tasks

If you have a task managed by different users then you are able to break the combined task into individual subtasks with their own single assignees.

How to Split the Same Task Between Jira Multiple Assignees?

Jira is a powerful project management tool used by teams worldwide to efficiently track tasks and projects. However, a common challenge many users face is how to split the same task among Jira multiple assignees effectively.

Jira is a powerful project management tool used by teams worldwide to efficiently track tasks and projects. However, a common challenge many users face is how to split the same task among Jira multiple assignees effectively. In this comprehensive guide, we will explore various strategies and best practices for tackling this issue. Whether you're new to Jira or a seasoned pro, you'll find valuable insights here to enhance your project management skills.

Why Split Jira Issues?

First of all, sometimes the task can just be complex for one assignee, so you need more than one person to finish it.

Secondly, team members can work on the same feature so they need to work together on the same issue.

Another case is that the workload of the assignee can be so tough, that she or he cannot complete the task without help and the Project Manager makes a decision to give this task to more than one assignee.

Typically, individuals generate sub-tasks to indicate various individuals responsible for a single assignment. Consequently, Jira becomes full of a multitude of tasks that essentially mirror each other, as it's possible to have three separate tasks for the same feature, each being a duplicated task with distinct assignees.

This influx of tasks and sub-tasks has led to a noticeable decline in Jira's performance, resulting in sluggishness, and has left users feeling disoriented in chaos, as it becomes increasingly difficult to understand who is handling specific responsibilities.

Jira split issues can lead to increased efficiency, as its multiple assignees can focus on their areas of expertise. Collaboration is key to project success. By assigning tasks strategically, you encourage collaboration among team members.

How to Assign Multiple Users to the Jira Task?

You can create custom fields to track Jira multiple assignees or contributors. These fields can be of type User Picker, allowing you to select multiple users. While the core assignee field will still represent the primary assignee, you can use custom fields to identify other individuals involved in the Jira split task.

Want to know how to split task in Jira? To add multiple assignees you just need to take a few actions:

Step 1: Open Jira Settings

Find "Jira Settings" in the top right corner and click on it. Choose the "Issues" tab:

Step 2: Find a Tab Custom Fields

Click on the "Create custom field" button:

Step 3: Find a “Multi-user Picker” Field

Proceed with Advanced Custom Fields and search for the "Multi-user Picker" field:

Name it in the field's configuration and save it.

Step 4: Add Custom Field to Jira Screens

After saving don't forget to add this field to all Jira Screens:

That's it! Now you can add multiple collaborators to your Jira tasks:

This alternative offers a partial improvement to the situation but falls short of a comprehensive solution. Professionals in that particular domain will still face challenges in identifying tasks assigned to them. Accurately tracking time spent on the issue becomes problematic, and it becomes challenging to gauge the individual contributions of multiple team members.

There are third-party plugins available in the Atlassian Marketplace that can extend Jira's functionality to support multiple assignees and help with advanced resource planning.

For example, the ActivityTimeline is a resource planning and time tracking add-on for Jira, that facilitates resource and task management with the help of the user/team timelines and allows you to assign multiple people to a single issue.

Split Jira Task with ActivityTimeline

This app provides a special planning board that contains all Jira projects with tasks, teams, and timelines and is built like a calendar. Users can assign tasks directly on the dashboard by simple drag-n-drop, track user activities, and understand who is doing what and when it will be done.

ActivityTimeline planning dashboard

When tasks are divided using ActivityTimeline, the extra assignees will be visible in the Jira task within the "Issue Collaborators" field. This process works both ways, so if users designate individuals in the custom field within Jira, the task will be automatically reflected on the dashboard.

Simply select a task,  allocate it among multiple users, and specify the desired estimates for each user, and you'll promptly see the segmented issues displayed on the Timeline.

You can split tasks on a Dashboard : drag and drop the task on a Dashboard by keeping the Shift key pressed.

Or from the Left Panel : drag-n-drop the task from the Left Panel to the Dashboard by keeping the Shift key pressed.

Split a Ticket for Different Days

Jira issue №1 with the original time estimate of 16 hours is scheduled for asignee for Wednesday and Thursday.

Suddenly another issue of tip priority appears and is scheduled for Thursday, and Bob cannot continue on issue №1, he can only finish it on  Friday.

Task №1 will have to be split into Wednesday and Friday. As a result, we will create two issue parts – the first one for Wednesday and the second one for Friday.

The estimate will also be split (16 hours of remaining time = 8 hours on Wednesday and 8 hours on Friday)

Manage Estimated Time

You have the ability to control the allocation of hours for each part of the issue within the "Manage Issue Parts" feature:

• Select any of the issue parts to make modifications or manage them.
• Click on the "Manage Issue Parts" button.
• Adjust the number of hours allocated to each part and then click the "Update" button.

As a result, the system will automatically recalculate the remaining time estimate for each part and update the total remaining hours for the Jira tickets.

Mastering the art of splitting tasks among multiple assignees in Jira is pivotal for seamless project management. You can effortlessly create Jira multiple assignees for the same task within the platform but in order to make the picture of your resources comprehensive you may try planning tools for Jira like ActivityTimeline. Forget about duplicate tasks and sub-tasks, assign one issue to multiple users with a few clicks!

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you allocate tasks to multiple assignees in jira.

Yes, Jira allows you to assign tasks to multiple assignees, but it doesn't provide tracking features for them. To track such tasks and Jira multiple asignees you'll need the help of planning add-ons like ActivityTimeline.

What is the process for assigning multiple individuals to a ticket in Jira?

You can assign multiple individuals to a ticket in Jira by creating sub-tasks or using custom fields to designate additional assignees.

Jira Multiple Assignees

Updated April 3, 2023

Definition of Jira Multiple Assignees

Sometimes we need to work together to achieve a common goal. At that time, we need to assign a single issue to multiple team members. But one of the important things is that we cannot assign a single issue to more than one team member, because of the Jira principle. It is against the principle of Jira operation. When we try to assign a single issue to more than one person, then we cannot define the responsibility of the issue or we can say it is not clear. But till we are required then we need to do some additional configuration like a mail group that consists of a group of team members.

What is Jira multiple assignees?

Many times teams have a need to cooperate on a similar errand. For instance, a product group makes another component, and the Designer, Developer, and QA ought to be relegated to a similar undertaking. Jira doesn’t uphold different appointees, so clients habitually request how to allocate one issue to numerous clients?

For the most part, individuals make sub-undertakings to show different chosen ones of a similar assignment. Therefore, Jira becomes packed with a huge number of errands that are essentially something similar, in light of the fact that you can have 3 undertakings for a similar element, which are basic copied assignments with various assignments. Jira is getting extremely sluggish, because of a major measure of errands and sub-assignments, and clients become derailed in this presence, as it’s difficult to comprehend who is doing what.

To show individuals that are chipping away at the undertaking, you might make an extra field “multi-client picker” and afterward demonstrate your extra chosen ones there.

Assignments in Jira are utilized to circulate various errands in a group. You dole out an undertaking to a representative (appointee).

However, now and again allocating an issue to various assignees can be useful.

For instance, assuming an errand is dealt with by various workers since it requires more information and assets.

Herefore, it is helpful to allot this errand to every mindful worker, as they share equivalent obligations, so they can design their run all the more effectively and don’t need to make individual tickets.

We show what prospects and workarounds exist to relegate an errand in Jira to different assignees.

Jira service management - multiple it teams.

I’m currently trialling Jira Service Management for an ITSM environment with one IT team split into multiple disciplines.

Apparently the supported way for this scenario is to have a project per sub-team. This seems unwieldy as issues will frequently be moved across teams for escalations etc and it sounds like a lot of upkeep is required with fields, portals etc.

Is there a way to achieve this with one project and queues instead? The way we currently work is to assign a ticket to a team/queue, rather than an individual and each sub team manages their own ticket allocation.

Thanks in advance.

• Auto assign issues in Jira with automation

Auto-assign issues in Jira

When a Jira issue gets created, often it does not have an assignee by default. With this template, ensure that issues are assigned to whoever created them.

The automation recipe

Step 1: Choose your trigger

The trigger kicks off your automation rule. In this case, the trigger is when: ‘Issue Created’ . This means that whenever an issue is created in Jira, automation will start listening.

Step 2: Add your condition

A condition refines the rule so it won’t act too broadly. For this rule, we are going to use the ‘ User condition '.

In the dropdown box under ‘field’ choose ‘assignee’. In the dropdown box under condition, choose ‘is empty’. If you ever get confused, just say it aloud. “ If the assignee is empty .” You can get much more granular with your conditions but we will keep it simple for this example.

Step 3: Add an action

Every rule finishes with an action. This is what actually executes the rule and does something in Jira (or externally).

In this case, choose the ‘ Assign issue ’ action. The default setting for this action is to assign to whoever triggered the event so we leave it as is. However, you could specify a person, group, field or more.

Step 4: Test it!

Now you can simply go into a sample project, create a new issue and automation will assign it to you. Many people have personal Jira instances or projects to test their rules first. You can follow everything that happens in the audit log. Give it a go now!

Jira Resource Planning Tips: How to Manage Work Overload with ActivityTimeline

How to Track Project Teams in Jira?

How to display additional assignees in jira.

'. get_the_title() .'

Very often team members have a need to work togethe r on the same ta sk. For example, a software team creates a new feature, and Designer, Developer, and QA should be assigned to the same task. Jira does not support multiple assignees, so users frequently ask how to assign one issue to multiple users?

Usually, people create sub-tasks to show multiple assignees of the same task . As a result, Jira becomes overcrowded with thousands of tasks that are basically the same, because you can have 3 tasks for the same feature, which are simple duplicated tasks with different a ssignees. Jira is getting very slow, due to a big amount of tasks and sub-tasks, and users become lost in this chaos, as it’s hard to understand who is doing what.

In order to show people that are working on the task, you may create an additional field “multi-user picker” and then indicate your additional assignees there.  

Here is how you can quickly do it:

Open Jira Settings > Choose Issues 

Find a Tab Custom Fields > Create New Custom Field

Proceed with Advanced Fields > Find a “Multi-user Picker” Field

Add Custom Field.

This option improves the situation a little bit, but not completely. People in that field w ill not see that the task is assigned to them, it will be impossible to track time spent on issue correctly and hard to see the efforts of every member.

In order to get a clear picture, you can use ActivityTimeline app , which will help you to get it, as the application supports a multi-user picker and allows to split tasks between users on the Timeline. Just choose a task, split it between several users, set the desirable estimate for every user, and split  issues will appear on Timeline.

When you split tasks through ActivityTimeline, those additional assi gnees will appear on the Jira task in Issue Collaborators field. Also, it works vice versa, so if users specify people in the custom field in Jira, the task will be automatically split on the dashboard. It is easy to track who is working on that task and users can log time.

Managing projects can be a complex task, especially when coordinating between different team members, tasks, and deadlines. This is where one can put their entire trust in Jira. It is a powerful project management tool that simplifies this process by providing a platform that helps teams plan, track, and manage work efficiently.

Whether you’re working on a software development project or managing tasks for a marketing campaign, Jira can help you with both for seamless project management.

What is Jira?

Starting Price

$ 7.16      

Jira is a project management tool that is popularly used to help teams plan, track, and manage their work. It was originally designed to track bugs in software development. However, now it has grown into a versatile platform that supports different types of projects.

Apart from that, Jira allows teams to break down tasks into subcategories called issues, assign them to individuals, and track their progress. It lets teams customize workflows to match their needs, whether they follow Agile methods like Scrum or Kanban or have their own processes. Jira also integrates with tools including Slack, Confluence, and more. This makes it a central hub for project management.

Navigating the Jira Interface

When you first open Jira, the interface might seem complex to you, but it’s straightforward once you get used to it. The main dashboard gives you an overview of your projects and tasks. On the left, you’ll find a navigation menu with options like Projects, Issues, and Boards to help you manage your work.

The top search bar helps you with locating specific tasks or projects. Jira’s boards visually display tasks in columns like To Do, In Progress, and Done. You can also customize your dashboard to focus on the information that is most important to you. This makes it easier to track progress and stay organized.

Customizing Dashboard in Jira for Maximum Productivity

Customizing your Jira dashboard can boost your productivity by displaying the most relevant information at your fingertips. Start by adding gadgets that show key details like your tasks, project progress, or team updates. You can easily add these by clicking Add Gadget and selecting the ones that suit your needs.

Arrange the gadgets in an order that makes sense, and choose a layout that fits your workflow, whether it’s a single column or multiple columns. You can even create multiple dashboards for different purposes, i.e., personal tasks and team projects.

Regularly update your dashboard by adding new gadgets or removing outdated ones. Keeping your dashboard updated ensures you always have the most important information.

Selecting the Right Project Template Using Jira

When choosing a project template in Jira, consider Scrum or Kanban based on your team’s needs.

Scrum is perfect for teams that work in fixed intervals, or sprints, to manage and review tasks. It helps with planning, tracking progress, and continuous improvement through regular sprint reviews. In short, select Scrum for structured and time-bound work.

Kanban, on the other hand, suits teams that handle tasks continuously without set intervals. It uses a visual board where tasks move through stages like To Do, In Progress, and Done, focusing on workflow and task management. One can select Kanban for flexible and ongoing task management.

Configuring Project Settings in Jira

To make the best out of Jira, you can follow the steps mentioned below:

• Start by setting up the project details like name and description.
• Customize issue types (e.g., tasks, bugs) to match your workflow.
• Configure workflows with steps like To Do and Done and set permissions to control who can access different parts of the project.
• Adjust notification settings to keep your team informed without spamming them.
• Add custom fields to track specific information and set up automation rules to handle repetitive tasks.

Inviting and Managing Team Members in Jira

To invite team members to your Jira project, go to the project settings and find the People section. Click Add People, enter their email addresses, and assign their roles, like Project Manager or Developer.

Manage team members by updating roles, adjusting permissions, or removing people from the project in the same section.

Then. set up notifications to keep everyone informed about important updates and changes. This ensures your team is well-organized and stays updated on project progress.

How to Create, Assign, and Track Issues in Jira

• Create an Issue: Click Create on the top of Jira, fill in details like the issue type and summary, and then click on Create to add it to your project.
• Assign an Issue: Open the issue, find the Assignee field, and assign the team member responsible for it.
• Track Issues: Use the Issues section or project board to view and filter issues by status or priority. Check the issue’s workflow to see its progress from To Do to Done.

Creating Custom Workflows Using Jira

In Jira, you can create custom workflows to align with your team’s way of working. For that, follow the below-mentioned steps:

• Select a template and then customize the statuses like To Do, In Progress, and Done.
• Set transitions to control the movement of tasks between statuses. Add automation to reduce manual work. You can automate moving a task to Done when a related action is completed.
• Test the workflow to see if it has been customized as per your requirements.
• This helps streamline your project management and keeps everyone aligned.

Using Filters and JQL in Jira for Advanced Searches

Filters and JQL in Jira help you to find tasks more easily, especially when you are working on large projects. Let’s understand Filters and JQL in more detail.

• Filters: Create and save searches based on criteria like task status or assignee. Access these saved filters anytime for quick results.
• JQL: Jira Query Language allows you to perform advanced searches by combining multiple conditions. For example, you can find tasks assigned to you that were created in the last week.

How to Integrate Jira with Confluence, Slack, and GitHub

• Jira and Confluence: Connect Jira to Confluence to link project tasks with your documentation. Use Jira macros in Confluence to display issues and project updates directly on your Confluence pages. Set up the integration in Confluence’s settings.
• Jira and Slack: Integrate Jira with Slack to get real-time updates about your projects. Install the Jira Cloud app from the Slack App Directory and connect your Jira account. Choose the notifications you want to receive in Slack channels.
• Jira and GitHub: Link Jira with GitHub to track code changes related to your tasks. Connect your GitHub repository in Jira’s settings to see commits, branches, and pull requests linked to Jira issues.
• These integrations help keep your team connected and informed, improving your workflow and project management.

Streamlining Workflows with Automation and Third-Party Apps

Jira’s automation features allow you to streamline repetitive tasks, such as assigning issues or sending notifications. You can also enhance Jira’s functionality by adding third-party apps from the Atlassian Marketplace. These apps can help with reporting, time tracking, and more, making Jira a more powerful tool for project management.

Creating Custom Reports and Dashboards in Jira

In Jira, custom reports and dashboards let you track and visualize project data.

• Custom Reports: Create reports tailored to your team’s needs by selecting data fields like issue status or assignee. Save and share these reports to keep everyone updated on the project’s progress.
• Dashboards: Build dashboards by adding gadgets like charts and issue lists to display key metrics. Customize them to focus on specific areas like task status or sprint progress.

These tools ensure that everyone has access to the information they need to manage their projects.

Jira is a versatile tool for managing projects efficiently. By learning to navigate its interface, customize dashboards, and select the right project templates, you can tailor Jira to your team’s needs.

The Art of Effective Project Management at University

• By Howie Jones
• Last updated August 20, 2024

When you have multiple projects for college, they can feel like a dozen plates in the air at once. If one crashes to the ground, the others will follow. But if you can master keeping them all afloat, your academic life will be a breeze. Here are five pieces of advice from top essay writers to help you manage multiple projects and keep your GPA high and anxiety low!

1. Prioritize

Not all assignments are equal. Some will affect your final grade more than others, and some will take more time or resources to complete. First, you should determine the percentage each project contributes to your final grade, its difficulty, and when it’s due. Then, it would be best to map your workload’s terrain. After you have identified your assignments, prioritize them. Working on the most important projects first will help you focus your energy where it matters the most to your grade and can often lead to higher-quality work on the things that matter most.  Hire the  best essay writing service to aid with the most important tasks if needed. This will ensure that your key assignments are handled, greatly reducing your academic stress.

2. Create a Master Schedule

If you’re juggling several deadlines at once, you need a sort of master schedule – a list of all the project deadlines and key milestones. It’s a good idea to see your entire workload in calendar view, which will help you avoid the common error of overbooking yourself and anticipate potential conflicts early. The birds-eye view of your commitments allows you to break down time blocks into individual tasks. This way, you might set aside three-hour blocks over several days just for writing reports, for example, and allocate the other blocks for other tasks.

3. Utilize Project Management Tools

Utilize technology to stay on top of your projects. There are countless free project management tools with which you can track the progress of each project by setting up a board for each task. Here’s a list of top project management tools:

• Trello – Visual board-based tool for organizing tasks.
• Asana – User-friendly for tracking work and team collaboration.
• Monday.com – Customizable for various project needs.
• Microsoft Project – Comprehensive for complex project planning .
• ClickUp – All-in-one tool for task management and planning.
• Smartsheet – Combines spreadsheet interface with collaboration features.
• Basecamp – Simplifies workflow with integrated communication tools.
• Jira – Supports agile methodologies, ideal for software projects.

With such solutions, you can create steps, track your progress, and set deadlines to remind yourself of upcoming tasks. This removes the need to remember everything and keeps you focused on your tasks with reminders and progress bars.

4. Set Realistic Goals

It is good to be ambitious, but you will only be disappointed and stressed if you set impossible goals. Set realistic, measurable goals for each of your projects. For example, if you need to write a 20-page paper, break it into smaller parts and set a goal to accomplish one or two pages daily. Not only will this reduce the feeling that the task is overwhelming, but you will also be able to celebrate completing each small part of this assignment. This will help you stay motivated, making large-scale projects more manageable.

5. Learn to Say No

Saying ‘No’ to invitations to social events, other commitments, and even additional projects is among college life’s most difficult time-management demands. Your time is limited, and protecting it often means saying no. Protecting your time is crucial to project management: guarding it from demands that might spread you too thin.

Mastering the Art of Multiplicity

It’s less about magical multitasking solutions and more about strategic planning, pragmatic tools, and realistic expectations. Setting priorities, leveraging technology to manage details, taking a realistic approach to goal-setting, and protecting your time is how you can survive – and even thrive – in the juggling act of college life. The bottom line is this: you want to learn how to make your academics work for you to get the grades you want and achieve your goals while maintaining mental health. If you follow these tips, you’ll be on your way to becoming a master multitasker!

Goodbye Distractions, Hello Efficiency: The Best Team Collaboration Tools of 2024

The best team collaboration tools minimize distractions and boost productivity.

By the team at Slack August 23rd, 2024

Team collaboration tools can make a world of difference when it comes to work productivity, project efficiency, and employee satisfaction. In fact, workers with access to digital collaboration tools report being 17% more satisfied with their workplace culture than those who do not use them.

But how do you even pick the right tool with so many contenders on the market? You could research team collaboration apps for days on end and still have trouble narrowing down your top picks. The options are simply overwhelming.

If you’re suffering from decision fatigue in your search for the perfect team collaboration app, you’re in the right place. Here’s what you should know about these tools, including must-have features and how to measure an app’s true impact.

What is a team collaboration app?

Team collaboration apps facilitate communication, cooperation, and coordination among employees. These tools enable messaging, video conferencing, file sharing, and project management, allowing teammates to work together efficiently from anywhere.

Why team collaboration tools are important for business

The right team collaboration software helps employees communicate more efficiently and ultimately boosts productivity by reducing the time they spend in meetings and scrolling through complicated email threads. Here’s how:

• Team members can leverage real-time messaging and video calls to resolve issues quickly, move projects forward, and minimize unnecessary back-and-forths and misunderstandings.
• Asynchronous features such as shared documents , dashboards, and project management interfaces let users access critical information at their convenience and make informed decisions independently.
• Workflow automation , optimization, and integration capabilities streamline processes and eliminate bottlenecks.

Team collaboration apps provide centralized knowledge-sharing platforms , which can help speed up onboarding and smooth transitions when employees leave or move into different roles. These tools encourage team members to share their expertise through discussion boards, knowledge bases, and collaborative documents, fostering a culture of continuous learning and improvement.

Tools for team collaboration support remote and hybrid work by providing virtual workspaces where users can collaborate seamlessly as if they were in the same physical office. The flexibility helps organizations tap into a broader talent pool so they can attract and retain the best employees and stay competitive and relevant.

How IBM uses Slack to boost team collaboration

IBM uses Slack as its work operating system to enhance internal communication and collaboration. The company’s more than 250,000 employees send an average of 9.2 million Slack messages daily to make their work happen.

Since 2015, IBM has installed more than 3,500 off-the-shelf and custom apps, and it uses 3,400 automated workflows monthly. Integrating Slack with tools such as Google Drive and Jira helps streamline workflows and boost productivity. Meanwhile, transparent communication allows users to find the right information for fast and accurate decision-making.

Key features to look for in team collaboration tools

Here are the must-have features your team collaboration tools should bring to the table:

Real-time messaging and communication

Instant messaging allows team members to communicate in real-time for timely decision-making without a formal meeting. Group chats help keep multiple stakeholders in the loop at once, while notifications and alerts encourage prompt responses by letting team members know as soon as they have new messages, mentions, or updates.

Audio and video calls

When the written word won’t quite cut it, your team collaboration platform should facilitate audio or video conferencing for real-time virtual huddles and meetings. Whether you’re hopping into a spontaneous call or scheduling a more formal, structured meeting, make sure your team collaboration software is up to the task.

File sharing and document collaboration

Your team collaboration app should allow users to easily share documents , images, videos, and other files within the platform. It should also provide version control functionality to ensure that all stakeholders have access to the most recent version of each document, including the ability to track changes and revert to previous versions.

Real-time editing capabilities allow multiple users to collaborate on the same document simultaneously, boosting efficiency and reducing the amount of time spent on revisions. Additionally, integration with cloud storage services such as Google Drive, Dropbox , or OneDrive enables seamless access to files and documents.

Project tracking and task management

Pick a team collaboration tool that lets you assign tasks to specific team members, set due dates, and send reminders. Your chosen platform should also support visual aids such as Kanban boards, Gantt charts, and progress bars to help you monitor projects’ status and progress.

See that your software uses labels and tags to help you prioritize tasks, categorize work, and help team members focus on the most critical items. You should also be able to use comments, attachments, and mentions to facilitate discussions about individual tasks and make relevant information available in one place to minimize delays and errors.

How to choose the right online collaboration tool

What should you consider when selecting an online collaboration tool? Follow these steps to cover the essentials.

Assess your team’s specific needs

• Determine the core functions your team needs, such as messaging, file sharing, task management, and video conferencing.
• Address how your team members communicate and whether they prefer to work synchronously or asynchronously.
• Consider your team’s size and structure: does it include sub-teams or remote members?
• Evaluate team-specific tasks, work volume, and cross-departmental collaboration.
• Your teammates should be technically proficient enough to use your chosen tool effectively.

Consider project requirements

Evaluate your projects’ complexity to determine whether a team collaboration tool can support your specific workflows and processes. Consider whether you’ll need advanced project management features, such as Gantt charts and resource allocation. Your team collaboration tool should also provide sufficient document management capabilities and meet security standards to comply with company policies and industry regulations.

Compare pricing and scalability

Review pricing plans to find an option that meets your budget. Some team collaboration apps offer free plans with limited features, so compare free options versus paid ones to weigh the costs and benefits of pricier subscription tiers.

Consider whether your chosen collaboration tool can scale to support your team’s growth. For example, you should be able to add users, increase storage, or upgrade features as your needs evolve. Also, sign up for free trials to take the apps for a spin before committing to a purchase.

Evaluate integration capabilities with existing tools

See if your top-choice team collaboration app can integrate with your team’s current tech stack, which might include CRM systems , email platforms, and file storage solutions. App integrations can help your team streamline its workflows. You may also consider the pros and cons of pulling together multiple tools to get the functionalities you need rather than using one all-purpose platform, for simplicity and cost savings.

The best team collaboration tools

No one can be an expert at everything. Similarly, we can’t expect any one team collaboration tool to excel in every aspect. Even so, you can still have your cake and eat it too: Slack readily integrates with more than 2,600 apps , allowing users to access their favorite tools directly from Slack to minimize context switching and increase productivity .

Check out these top-notch collaboration apps, all of which integrate seamlessly with Slack’s work operating system:

• Best collaboration app for team chat: Slack allows you to organize communication via channels and threads .
• Best collaboration app for video conferencing and screen sharing: Slack huddles supports on-the-spot video conferencing, audio calls, and screen-sharing capabilities.
• Best collaboration app for online whiteboarding: Miro makes it easy to orchestrate brainstorming sessions with remote teams.
• Best collaboration app for mind mapping: Forky is a distraction-free mind-mapping tool for real-time collaboration.
• Best collaboration app for screen recording: Loom allows you to share your screen and record a message with or without a talking head.
• Best collaboration app for project management: Asana ’s intuitive dashboard helps you keep track of projects without leaving Slack.
• Best collaboration app for shared digital workspaces: Google Workspace includes cloud computing, productivity, and collaboration tools.
• Best collaboration app for AI meeting assistance: Fireflies automatically transcribes meeting notes and creates summaries and recaps.
• Best collaboration app for file storage: Google Drive offers a centralized repository for files and documents.
• Best collaboration app for automating workflows: Slack’s Workflow Builder enables less tech-savvy users to automate processes without writing code.
• Best collaboration app for knowledge sharing: Notion makes it easy to build searchable databases so you can track and manage projects.
• Best collaboration app for security: 1Password offers easy management for passwords and payment details.

Measuring the success of team collaboration tools

Investing in the right tool is just the first step — measuring the impact is just as, if not more, important. Here are some tips for measuring the success of whichever collaboration tool you choose.

Track user adoption

Collect user engagement metrics and track daily, weekly, and monthly active users to understand how your team uses the tool. Analyze this data to see which features are most popular and which are underutilized. You may also conduct regular team surveys to gather feedback, understand users’ challenges, and inform targeted improvements.

Calculate cost savings

Measure how much time your team collaboration tool saves users on emails, meetings, document searches, and other relevant tasks. To assess whether your tool of choice has boosted productivity, track and compare project completion times before and after implementation. Calculate the ROI by comparing the cost of the tool against the financial benefits gained from increased efficiency and reduced operational costs.

Measure employee satisfaction and retention

Survey team members to see if they’re satisfied with your team collaboration app. Monitor employee retention rates pre- and post-implementation, and see whether the tool contributes to a more positive and efficient work environment. Also, establish feedback channels to understand the app’s impact on team members’ daily work and see how the tool improves flexible work arrangements .

Maximize team collaboration with Slack

Effective team collaboration involves many moving parts. You can build a solid foundation by fostering a supportive culture, setting measurable goals, and tracking team members’ progress after implementing new collaboration software.

If you use Slack as your team collaboration platform, our work operating system makes it easy to establish clear communication channels so teammates can focus on productive interactions and feel empowered to provide feedback in real-time.

At least 5 Secret Service agents have been placed on modified duty after Trump assassination attempt

• Copy Link copied

At least five Secret Service agents have been placed on modified duty after the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump in July, a law enforcement official told The Associated Press.

They include the special agent in charge of the Pittsburgh field office and three other agents assigned to that office, which was responsible for the security planning ahead of the July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, according to the law enforcement official who had direct knowledge of the matter. One of the five agents was assigned to Trump’s protective detail, the official said.

The official was not authorized to publicly disclose details of the personnel investigation and spoke to The Associated Press on condition of anonymity.

The agents are on administrative leave, meaning they cannot do investigative or protective work.

Multiple investigations have been launched as officials probe a complicated law enforcement failure that allowed a man with an AR-style rifle to get close enough to shoot and injure Trump at the rally .

Trump was struck in the ear but avoided serious injury. One spectator was killed and two others were injured.

The shooting was a devastating failure of one of the agency’s core duties and led to the resignation of the Secret Service’s then-director, Kim Cheatle.

At a congressional hearing after the assassination attempt, Cheatle acknowledged that the Secret Service was told about a suspicious person two to five times before the shooting. She also revealed that the roof from which Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire had been identified as a potential vulnerability days before the rally.

Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe Jr., who took over after Cheatle’s resignation , has said he “cannot defend why that roof was not better secured.”

Houston Astros Activate Past World Series Champ Amid Multiple Roster Moves

Brad wakai | aug 24, 2024.

• Houston Astros

Coming into their contest on Saturday, the Houston Astros will have to flush what happened on Friday night when they held what felt like a commanding lead before their bullpen gave it up late in the eighth inning.

Things like that happen throughout the long season, but it never feels good to give away games against other top American League contenders that could have seeding ramifications when it comes time for the playoffs.

Ahead of the third game in this important series against the Baltimore Orioles , some roster changes have been announced by the Astros that includes officially activating their past World Series champion, Hector Neris, who they were able to reunite with early this week .

ROSTER MOVES: The Astros have signed RHP Hector Neris (#50) to a ML contract. Neris will join the club today in BAL. To make room for Neris on the active roster, Houston optioned RHP Seth Martinez to Triple A Sugar Land following last night’s game. Houston also designated IF… — Houston Astros (@astros) August 24, 2024

The star right-hander will hope to regain his form in Houston after he struggled with his command during his stint with the Chicago Cubs .

He was coming off a career year in 2023, so if he can channel that type of performance, then he will become a major weapon for this team down the stretch.

In other moves, Seth Martinez was optioned as a corresponding action related to Neris's activation.

This could be seen as an interesting decision considering he's putting together one of the best performances of his career with a 3.04 ERA through 42 appearances so far. However, his last seven outings have seen him begin to struggle with five earned runs allowed on 11 hits in 7.1 innings pitched.

Bringing in a proven arm like Neris will allow Martinez to work on some things in the minors with the opportunity to rejoin Houston for the final part of the year.

Jacob Amaya appeared in one game before getting designated for assignment, and with Kaleb Ort getting reinstated from the paternity list, the Astros also optioned Shawn Dubin to their Triple-A affiliate.
