Love the simplicity
After using Notion for quite a while to plan new business together with my husband, I could work with it even though it is overcomplicated. My husband clearly hated the setup, so I presented Kan to him. We decided to buy the highest tier. I am still setting things up, but I really love the simplicity. The UI looks great too!
There are a few things that could improve my experience:
- More workspaces! We have 4 right now, which covers the businesses we run + one personal workspace. I wish I could have my personal workspace in Kan as well. But the best option would be to create about 20 workspaces, or unlimited workspaces with a storage limit, so that I could invite my clients to a dedicated workspace for their design project.
- Board covers, we are visual people running photography, art and design businesses. Plus, I would love to use Kan for stuff like a personal Goodreads, so adding book covers and having them show in the board would be very useful
- Lastly, a timeline view would be awesome but not a necessity at this point.
- I can't wait for dedicated apps for our Macs and iPhones.
I hope Kan will develop further, but keep it simple!

Edited Jun 15, 2026Hey Nicolet,
Thank you very much for the kind words, I'm really glad to hear you're both enjoying Kan!
I've spent a lot of time in Notion too and I agree, like Trello it's become bloated and complex over time. Keeping Kan simple is something I care a lot about, so that's great to hear it's also important to you.
- More workspaces: I haven't got anything to share just yet but if there's enough demand we may create a tier with more workspaces. Stay tuned!
- Board covers: this is something we're exploring at the moment, will share more details soon.
- Timeline view: I'm really keen to add myself - it's not on the roadmap just yet but will be coming shortly after the calendar view launches. You can track progress on that here: https://kan.bn/kan/roadmap/oio9drg4fd6n
- Native apps: me too, I'm really looking forward to launching mobile and desktop apps for Kan!
Thanks again for taking the time to leave a review!
Cheers,
Henry
