MeisterTask is a project and team collaboration management tool for working together as a team. Project dashboards and timelines help to keep an overview.\\
  
===== Access =====

Register with your university e-mail address at [[https://meistertask.com|www.meistertask.com]]. The basic account is sufficient to create and administer/manage three of your own projects.

If you need more projects, please contact us using the university e-mail address registered with meisterTask. As we only have a limited number of Enterprise licenses, please only contact us if you really need more projects.  

===== Projects and guest roles =====

  * Projects should be set to “[[https://support.meistertask.com/hc/en-us/articles/6347084566674-Private-Projects-vs-Team-Projects|private]]” (= default), otherwise all Enterprise accounts in the “**Jade University**” team will have access. 
  * Invite other project members as guests or members via their e-mail addresses ("**Project settings - Share**").    
  * People with a Basic license (free of charge) can create up to three projects and work on an unlimited number of projects, but without Enterprise functions (currently “**Timeline**”, “**Subtasks**”, “**Custom fields**”). An Enterprise license is therefore not required in most cases.

**Guest role**: Jade University only has a limited number of Enterprise licenses. It is often sufficient to grant guest rights to participants to work on projects. Users who are invited to a project as guests can access tasks that are assigned to them or in which they are added as an observer. 

**Member role**: Members can create, administer and manage an unlimited number of projects. 

Guests can access your guest tasks from their agenda.
