We’re focusing our efforts on exploring a best-in-class, native task management experience within Mattermost using message properties that allows for dynamic integration of cards across the platform that will eventually replace the Boards plugin.
This shift reflects our commitment to improving how teams manage work in a deeply integrated, efficient manner within Mattermost. We will provide updates well in advance to help users plan for any future transitions.
If you’d like to review early draft concepts and share your use cases with us, please contact your customer representative or reach out to us at product@mattermost.com.
To give us time for this exploration, we won’t be adding new features to the Boards plugin, and the plugin has been removed from the in-product App Marketplace. We will continue to deliver critical bug fixes and security updates to ensure a reliable experience for Mattermost Enterprise customers.
New self-hosted Mattermost customers can upload and enable Boards manually, and Cloud customers can contact their Mattermost representative for assistance.
The open-source Focalboard project is available as a standalone solution for task and project management that doesn’t require a Mattermost server or an Mattermost Enterprise license.
