Task managers

Whether you need to organize your personal tasks or the work of a whole team, task trackers come to the rescue. Among popular solutions made in Russia are Weeek and Kaiten (aka FlowFast). Both are based on kanban boards, but also include additional features, such as analytics, reports, calendars, etc. They work smoothly and do wonders when it comes to project management. You can learn more about the services here and here to see which one is more suitable for your needs.

Graphic editors

AliveColors is a great software for photo editing with a wide range of functions, from color adjustment and built-in filters to graphic design tools, that will help you create neat illustrations and mockups. It’s available for free with limited functionality or for a one-time payment of $55 for the full version (for private users). 

In case you prefer tools available online, give Supa a try! Using its simplistic interface, you can create designs for social media and other purposes, as well as edit videos.

Spelling services

If you ever had to write something in Russian, you know how challenging it can be. That’s why even native speakers utilize online spelling services, such as text.ru and Orfograf. They are free and can help you check your writing for typos, missing or extra commas, and other mistakes. English interfaces are not available, but the idea is pretty simple: insert your text, click “Проверить” (“Check”), and the program will highlight the errors.

Quiz makers

As we’ve already mentioned, we have a soft spot for quizzes. To create one, you can use a service developed in St. Petersburg – myQuiz. If the number of participants is less than 35, it requires no payment. A great solution for a trivia game at your next event!

Those in need of a more business-specific quiz-making tool can opt for Marquiz. It’s popular among marketing specialists for lead generation and includes a bunch of ready-to-use templates that can help you get started.

That’s it for today! To learn about even more useful services, see our story Must-Have Apps in Russia.
