Getting Started with Chronodesk
Welcome to Chronodesk — your all-in-one platform for project management and service desk operations. This guide walks you through setting up your workspace so your team can hit the ground running.
1. Create Your Account
Visit chronodesk.io and click Start Free. Enter your work email address and choose a password. You’ll receive a confirmation email — click the link inside to activate your account.
2. Set Up Your Workspace
After activation, the workspace setup wizard opens. You’ll be asked to:
- Name your workspace — this appears in your URL and in notifications
- Invite team members — add colleagues by email address
- Select your timezone — this ensures due dates and calendar events display correctly
3. Create Your First Project
Once your workspace is ready, click New Project in the left sidebar. Fill in:
- Project Name — keep it short and descriptive
- Description — briefly explain the project’s goal
- Start date and target end date
- Team members — assign people who will work on this project
Click Create Project and you’re ready to start adding tasks.
4. Add Your First Tasks
Inside your project, click Add Task. Each task has a title, optional description, assignee, and due date. You can also set task dependencies — useful for work that must happen in sequence.
