These are awesome for a kan-ban or agile board. They are quite wide, so you'll need a large board.
I love these...very easy to use. My whiteboard at work now looks so organized. It is much easier to write on 1 card (or make changes to) than to add/change something in the middle of the whiteboard.
Love them and there are a lot of them but the price is high. Kinda an impulse buy for me.
Good
It performs like advertised.
These work great I just wish they were cheaper.
We use these on several Kanban boards to track our work. They are great.
Innovative game changers! These are awesome for planning, process mapping, and diagramming to name a few purposes. I cannot even begin to think of all the uses for them. People at work always ask where I got them. They are a bit pricey.
I purchased these magnets a couple of weeks ago. As an author, I love finding creative new ways to plot my books. And I love to use color when I do so. These magnets are a perfect addition to my whiteboard. I can use the different colors for different plot threads and characterizations. But they have myriad uses--for students, teachers, crafts, etc.
The size is terrific. Enough room to write detailed information, but not so large that it takes up too much space. They stick beautifully. They clean well, though you might need to use a spray cleaner if the colors are dark and left on for an extended period. But one spritz and a wipe and it's good as new. I love that they come in different sizes and colors. I also picked up the black wipeable magnets. I needed to pick up a different marker for those, but I anticipated that since regular dry erase markers don't stand out on a wipeable blackboard.
The only con isn't truly a con. I tried to lift the magnets at the corner with my fingernail. I do NOT recommend doing that! The fingernail can slip between the magnet and the dry erase surface and cause it to peel. I contacted Agile Pack and they were absolutely amazing. They immediately sent me replacement magnets and told me the following: "Since the magnets have a strong pull force, if you get a nail caught between the top layer and the magnetic surface when trying to move the magnets, it’s possible this could cause them to separate. Since our magnets are flexible, we find the best way to pick them up is to make sure your nail is getting between the whiteboard or metal surface and the black magnetic layer of the magnets. Sometimes putting a little pressure and pushing in on one side of the magnet can make it bend a bit and this helps it release from the surface. Lifting at any of the rounded corners or the shorter sides of the card works best." I highly recommend you NOT lift from the corners, but from the shorter side of the card.
This is truly a wonderful product and I'm SO glad I purchased it! It works beautifully! I highly recommend it!
Works great for my scrum board. I hate wasting all those sticky notes. This is by far more efficient. I would recommend buying two packs if you create a lot of subtasks.
Item is as described. Makes a very clean and professional team board!
This is an excellent productivity tool! Although I'm all about automation and using technology, sometimes you can't beat what's written down in some sort of ink and always visible, without the need to powering-up a device.
I use a Top Priority column, General Tasks, In-Progress (Working), and In-Progress (Waiting). If a task is completed, then the pack gets removed from the board.
Great for project management in a common work area and for your own individual use. I'm about to order another set of packs for my home.
I LOVE these! They write/erase easily, have great magnetism, slide on the whiteboard for ease of organizing AND they are easy to cut to different sizes if needed. I’ve already ordered a second set!
We needed to get a team of 30 all on the same page with priority activities in a complex R&D project. We needed something more visual and dynamic than MS project or smart sheets. The multiple colors allowed us to identify the sub team respsoble, the magnetic aspect was great for use on our large whiteboard, and the dry erase aspect key for our dynamic work descriptions. I've typically used large postit for this type of efffort, and the glue on those is unreliable. These magnets stick. If you are looking for a very user friendly way to dynamically manage a complex effort with lots of dependencies this works nicely. Enough room to write a high level summary of the effort on the card.
Worked well in demonstrating Kanban boards in class. Reusability is via dry erase is perfect.
Product is as described and exactly what is needed for sharing project information.
These are great, and are easily cut if you need smaller strips. I created a system using a magnetic whiteboard where I drew out a calendar and other objective maps in Sharpie (not permanent – fully erasable with alcohol) and then use these as time slots. As ideas/needs come to mind I write them down and place them on my urgency map, then move them to the calendar when there's time.
It's so easy to move unfinished tasks to other days. The result is a perfect system of to-do, urgency, and calendar... all fluid and actually fun! I have tried so many apps in the hope of finding such a fluid system, but nothing has been as perfect as this. I'll try to post a pic to show what I'm talking about...
I bought these for my high school science classroom.
They are extremely versatile and easy to use.
The magnets also work well, which I was worried about before purchasing them.
Great classroom product and I highly recommend!
Products are well made and are very durable.
