Work your way: How Bitrix24 lets you take the lead on task management

You don’t need another to-do list. You need a system that adapts to your style and maybe even thinks ahead for you. Bitrix24 understands that “productivity” looks different for every team. That’s why it doesn’t push one workflow. It gives you options. Loads of them.

Whether you like your tasks color-coded and cascading across a Gantt chart, or locked into a sprint in Scrum, Bitrix24 doesn’t just tolerate your process…it thrives on it.

Gantt charts, Kanban boards, and the freedom to choose

Some platforms are one-trick ponies. Bitrix24 is more of a Swiss Army knife. You want big-picture planning? Fire up a Gantt chart to map dependencies and track deliverables from start to finish. Prefer to knock out tasks one card at a time? Kanban view makes it easy to drag-and-drop to manage your flow without losing momentum. There’s also Scrum for agile teams, a classic list view for checklist lovers, and a personal Planner board for solo operators juggling multiple workstreams.

No one view is treated as the “real” one. You can toggle between layouts with a click, and your team sees the same project data from whatever angle makes sense to them.

Let the robots handle the rinse-and-repeat

There are two kinds of tasks: the creative, strategic ones you want to spend time on, and the repetitive admin that makes your eyes glaze over. Bitrix24’s task automation is built to handle the second kind.

You can set up triggers to auto-assign follow-ups, change task statuses, or ping someone when a due date is slipping. Need a teammate to review every proposal before it goes out? Automate it. Want tasks to generate every Monday with a fresh checklist? Done. It’s like having a project manager who never forgets, never naps, and definitely doesn’t lose post-it notes.

Meet CoPilot: Your AI project assistant with no ego and zero burnout

CoPilot is Bitrix24’s AI assistant, and it doesn’t wait around to be asked. It’s ready to generate task descriptions, break down goals into checklists, or help you structure a sprint in seconds. Just give it a prompt, and it spins up a full task brief without burying you in AI jargon.

Say you need to launch a summer campaign. You can type, “Create tasks for launching a summer promo, including design, copy, social, and email,” and CoPilot breaks that into actionable subtasks. Need it in Scrum format with story points? Just say so. Want it all summarized as a status update for the exec team? It’ll whip that up too.

CoPilot isn’t flashy. It’s the kind of quiet coworker who takes notes in the background and somehow knows what you were going to forget.

Schedule smarter, not harder

You can’t conjure extra hours in the day, but Bitrix24 makes it feel like you did. The built-in planner helps you book time slots for focus work, auto-align meetings with your availability, and even block time for tasks based on priorities.

And because it’s not just a calendar but part of a larger ecosystem, you can link tasks directly to your schedule. That “Write Q3 strategy memo” task? Slot it into your Thursday morning focus block and get a gentle reminder when it’s time to stop tinkering with slide layouts and start writing.

Reports you don’t dread

KPIs and progress updates don’t have to mean spreadsheet doom. Bitrix24 collects task data across your projects so you can generate reports on deadlines, team performance, and time spent — without resorting to copy-paste gymnastics.

You can filter by assignee, project, status, and timeline to see what’s working (and what’s stalled). And if you’re mid-project, CoPilot can offer insights like “Tasks in the design phase are averaging two days longer than projected” so you can course-correct early.

All-in-one, but not all-up-in-your-business

Bitrix24 lives in the background until you need it. It’s not noisy or clingy. You won’t get 12 pings for moving a task from “In Progress” to “Done.” But when you want to take a pulse on your project, switch views, or get CoPilot to sanity-check your workload, it’s right there.

More importantly, Bitrix24 doesn’t ask you to relearn how your brain works. It supports the messy, nonlinear, sometimes chaotic way real teams get work done.

The best task manager is the one you don’t have to fight. Bitrix24 gets that. And with AI that quietly adds lift instead of friction, task views that speak your language, and automation that trims the busywork, you might actually have time to stop working and start thinking again.
