Does Kanban Tool have a Sprint feature? Can it support a Scrum process?

While there is no dedicated sprint feature in Kanban Tool, it’s not uncommon for users to implement sprints regardless. There’s some freedom in how to approach this.

The easiest way is to make one of the backlog columns a current sprint column. From that column on, work progresses through all other stages, until the sprint column is empty. Meanwhile, any tasks for future sprints can be added to the backlog stages preceding the current sprint column.

Other successful Kanban Tool sprint approaches are:

  • Using a new swimlane for each sprint
  • Tagging tasks related to one sprint with a specific tag
  • Assigning a set card color to cards within a set sprint.
  • Creating a tree of dependencies between cards within one sprint.
