About

About Favro

Favro is a planning and collaboration tool made by Favro, whose holding company is registered in Sweden. Teams organize work as cards on boards and group related boards into collections.

Written by lean-stack from Favro's public pages. Vendors can replace it with their own description by claiming this profile.

Features

What Favro offers

01

Kanban boards

Work items are cards that move across columns on a board. This gives the team a visual board for daily stand-ups.

02

Card limits

A vendor article covers card limits and flow optimization. Limits on columns put WIP limits, a core Kanban practice, into the board.

03

Collections

Help articles describe collections, which group related boards. A department can see the work of several teams together.

04

Collaborative planning

Vendor articles describe planning across teams in Favro. This supports joint planning and dependency talks between teams.

05

Slack integration

Help articles cover a Slack integration that shares Favro updates in Slack. The team sees card changes without leaving chat.

06

Zapier and identity tools

A help article covers a Zapier integration for automation. Okta lists Favro in its integration network for identity management.

07

Mobile app

A help article covers the Favro mobile app. Team members can check and update cards away from a desk.

08

Game studio guides

The vendor publishes many guides for game development teams and studio leaders. It also has an industry page for SaaS teams.
