Questions people ask
Is Ettex a good Asana alternative?
Ettex Board covers the work people use Asana for — Kanban boards with columns, cards, assignees and labels to move work forward — and it sits inside a suite of 19 apps, so documents, mail, chat and the rest are one click away instead of one more subscription.
How much does it cost compared to Asana?
Board is $4 per month on its own. If you need more than one app, a suite bundles every app for one price, and there is a free tier plus a 14-day Pro trial that does not ask for a card.
Can I move my work over from Asana?
Yes. Ettex works with open formats — DOCX, XLSX, PDF and CSV — so you can bring existing files in and take everything back out whenever you want. Nothing is locked to us.
What happens to my data?
Ettex is local-first: your work is stored on your own device and synced when you are online, so it stays readable even without an account or a connection. Desktop builds run fully offline.
