I use KanbanTool at work and must say really impressed with the simplicity and visibility added to my day.
Analytics are great with multiple metrics for WIP limits like - estimated hours, tasks, etc. Cumulative charts are great too!
I would recommend this tool to anyone who is looking for simple and effective workflow, clean-UI, reporting tools, mobile-app without over-engineering the setup.
I use it for my personal Kanban too, it's got all the features that make it really useful for personal use as well as for teams.

You should probably try to figure out your team's work capacity (i.e. how many tasks can each member do per working day) - you don't need to have a solid number and, per my experience you should probably level by the lower numbers. After getting to an average you can adapt it just remember that people must stick to one task at a time (moving unfinished tasks to "on hold" before they can take on another responsibility. If you're looking for a kanban tool to help manage your processes I could suggest the one from the company I work at, Pipefy.
Hi
I'm the developer of https://metroretro.io which is a free retrospective app that gives you a free form canvas to layout sticky notes on as you see fit. It's primarily for retros but I also included two kanban templates as the tool is intended to be flexible beyond retrospectives. In fact, I manage my own backlog using these templates. There is a screenshot of my backlog in this blog post: https://metroretro.io/blog/how-we-use-metro-retro
You are free to create your own templates as you see fit using the "Build Mode" once you are on board. There is a limit of 50 zones (swim lanes) per board and no board limit per user. If you want something to simulate the simplicity of sticky notes on a whiteboard you might find it useful.
Planner is the worst application for instance.
Microsoft tries with Teams to compete with slack but in vain, now Planner compared to Trello is much less efficient and usable. It may be necessary to link it to Flow to make it a useful application?
we use airtable.com for my team and another one use kantree.io
