Navigation

How to find your way around SixGrid.

SixGrid has two levels of navigation:

System Sidebar

The sidebar is always visible on the left side of the screen. It contains your main navigation links:

Link What it does
Dashboard Your personal home screen with to-dos, milestones, projects, and org overview
All Projects Browse every project in your organization
All People See everyone in your organization
Groups Manage the groups that organize your projects and people
Reports Organization-wide data, financials, and breakdowns
Settings Organization branding (logo), billing, and subscription management (Owner and Admin only)
+ Create a new project Start a new project with the guided wizard

On mobile devices, the sidebar is hidden behind a hamburger menu button in the top-left corner. Tap it to open, and tap anywhere outside to close.

Project Tabs

When you're inside a project, you'll see a horizontal tab bar across the top with these tabs:

Tab What it shows
Charter The project charter, metrics, and notes
Financials Benefits, costs, and net financial impact
To-dos Actionable items and milestone tracking
People Team members and their project roles
Files All project files in one place, plus upload general project files
Report Final Report narrative and PDF generation
Settings Project name, dates, status, group, activity log, and delete

The active tab is highlighted with a blue underline so you always know where you are.

Organization Branding

SixGrid ships with the SixGrid logo in the sidebar by default. Organization Owners and Admins can replace it with their own logo to brand the experience for their team.

Where to manage your logo

Go to Settings > General (click Settings in the sidebar). The Organization Branding section shows your current logo and provides controls to upload or remove it.

Uploading a custom logo

  • Click Upload Logo on the Settings > General page (Owner/Admin only)
  • Select an image file (PNG, JPG, SVG, or WebP, max 2MB)
  • The logo appears immediately in the sidebar for everyone in the organization
  • Recommended: a wide-format image (e.g. 400×80px) with a transparent background works best

When a custom logo is active

  • The custom logo replaces the SixGrid logo in the sidebar
  • A small "Powered by SixGrid" link appears at the bottom of the sidebar
  • On the Settings page, you can click Change Logo to replace it or Remove logo to revert to the default SixGrid branding

When no custom logo is uploaded

  • The default SixGrid logo is shown
  • "Get Projects Done" appears at the bottom of the sidebar as a link to sixgrid.com

Tip: Clicking the logo in the sidebar navigates to the Dashboard — it does not open a file picker. Logo management is always done from the Settings page.

This feature is especially useful for consulting firms and training providers who want their clients to see their own brand when using SixGrid.
