Notion template to solve painful problems of project management in Notion instead of looking beautiful. - Create & manage sub-issues - Auto-estimate due date - Track progress across projects, sprints & tasks - Suggest what to do - Smart outdated tasks
Hi ProductHunt community π,
I'm Minh-Phuc, I quit my 9-5 job 2 months ago to build 6 startups in 12 months.
Nora is my second product. It's a Notion template that solves painful problems of project management in Notion instead of looking beautiful.
I've tried many templates and rebuilt project management in Notion myself many times but many of them are just cool & beautiful but don't actually solve painful problems of project & task management:
- Couldn't move any task from In Progress to Done in a day because you got stuck to a too big task. Nora makes it super easy to create & manage sub-tasks for everything, including a task that is already a sub-task of other.
- No estimate system: having to actively think of due date for every task is overwhelming and as a project gets bigger and has more tasks & sub-tasks, manual estimate is impossible. Nora has an auto-estimate system that works seamlessly with the infinite sub-tasks system, allows you to see an estimated due date & progress of everything: projects, sprints, big tasks, small tasks, etc.
- No sprint tracking: if you want to do sprint tracking, sprint is simply a group of tasks with a deadline. Thanks to the estimate & infinite sub-tasks system, sprint tracking is available without any extra work, you'll see the total estimated hours & current progress of your sprint and its tasks.
- Your backlog has too many outdated tasks, sometimes you even avoid looking at it. Nora has a smart outdated task system that allows you to easily identify outdated tasks & get rid of them in <2 minutes.
- Sometimes you just look at your backlog and don't know what to do. Nora has a builtin tool that helps you find what to do based on your current energy level and what you feel like doing.
If any of these problems resonated with you, use PH50OFF to get 50% off of Nora and save hundreds of hours wasting on rebuilding or not knowing what to do with project management system in your Notion.
Thank you π₯³π
@phuctm97 Brilliant product! This is the ideal tool to simplify the process of project management. The up-to-date overview of everything is the perfect way to make sure everything is in check.
Congratulations on the launch!
I use Notion for documentation. This is one of the most comprehensive project management template that I have come across. Is it customized to both Agile and Waterfall ? I think some of my developer friend are already using it.
@amartya_bhargava It's customizable for both Agile and Waterwall. In fact, it does dictate the methodology you use, it just gives you the tools: projects, sprints, sub-tasks, estimate & progress. You can combine these tools to do both Agile and Waterfall. Even a mix of Agile & Waterfall (e.g. Waterfall for a task within an Agile project)
@sotak Thank you, Marek!
Great question, 2 biggest differences of Nora sub-task system:
- It's infinite: any task, even a sub-task of sub-task of sub-task can have sub-tasks. And if you change the parent of a task, all sub-tasks will move with its parent. In other systems, moving sub-tasks between projects is a pain and you can't really have sub-tasks within sub-tasks.
- It has due date estimate & progress built into it: sub-task hierarchy is at its best when sub-tasks contribute due date estimate & progress to its parent, without any extra work from you. If you add/update/remove sub-tasks in a project, the progress and estimated due date of the whole hierarchy will be updated instantly! This was not seen in any existing template.
@phuctm97 The focus on productivity is amazing. Also, I was pleasantly surprised by "what to do" suggestions - having to choose a task on your to-do list is a pain.
This is the most comprehensive project management template that I have come across. It's geared especially towards developers.
If you use Notion, you should definitely check this Notion template.
Congrats @phuctm97 for your 2nd launch and all the best.
@rbouschery Thank you, Robbie! Yes, that is one of the biggest differences of Nora, you can have sub-tasks for everything, even a sub-task of a sub-task of a sub-task.. you get the idea!
That means that you just start doing things instead of figuring out how to structure tasks the perfect way.
The whole estimate & progress system works seamlessly with this architecture too!
This looks fantastic! Congrats on the launch. I've seen you on Twitter as an expert on Notion for a while now, love that others will be benefiting from your extensive knowledge πππ
Congrats on launching, Minh-Phuc!
I've purchased Nora in the pre-sale and have been using it for the last couple of days to structure the todos for my side project.
Couldn't be happier with it - finally, a Notion template that just works. I didn't need to set anything up or learn a new method. Everything I needed came with the standard template.
What I love most about it, are the infinite sub-tasks. For me, that means that I can just start doing things instead of figuring out how to structure tasks the perfect way. Simplifies my working process so much!
Thank you for creating such an awesome product!
This talented maker KNOWS Notion inside out and his work always puts the user first. So impressed by what he's achieved and this product will go far simply because it was made by him. Congrats, Minh-Phuc!
