Avaza vs. Microsoft To Do vs. TickTick

We are a pretty unique business because we deal with bookkeeping, marketing, and HR and across all 3 departments, we have been able to successfully use the tool. Other software we have tried usually caters to one industry at a time.

I think Microsoft To Do is helpful for people who don't need a lot of customization in a task manager. I prefer using 3rd party task managers that allow me to create projects with tasks and subtasks. But for a team that already uses Microsoft products and doesn't want to learn or invest capital in another task manager, Microsoft To Do covers the basics and syncs with your calendar.

Very well suited: 1. Small organizations and businesses ( 50, I don't think Ticktick is the best tool for that... Ticktick is excellent for keeping oneself accountable and on point with one's task. There should be an inherent sense of ownership from the user because an app can only do so much. It is not well suited for big organizations with more than 50 people, where visibility of stats is required on an admin or higher level. Plus, collaboration will become a lot clunkier as the number of team members increases. Knowledge management will also be an issue.

• It switches between Kanban view, List view, and Gantt charts which fits varying preferences!
• It helps us work smart by creating dependencies and linking tasks to calendars
• It has a clean, intuitive dashboard that's very easy to navigate

• Wunderlist is what you need for your to do lists. It's really simple to use.
• Allows you to set due date to your lists, share them with your team and/or create a folder to divide and organize all your list set
• Also, Wunderlist is compatible with all platform and devices. So you can always be updated on your list or work on them from wherever you are and with all the devices you have.

• Task management
• Daily/Weekly Planning
• Calendaring

• The interface and taxonomy could use an update, sometimes it's hard to figure out where things logically are or should be.

• Viewing more than one task at a time.
• Email forwarding tasks - sometimes can be buggy and not always smooth.
• Option to show more detail on a task without clicking task - example: being able to see attachment without clicking on task to view.

Incentivized

• The task reminders are in the form of a notification - it would be nice to have an email option.
• All tasks due on the same day/time show up as one notification versus separate - this can be hard to separate as far as task planning goes.

Because it has been amazing and easy to work with.

It's working, and doing precisely what we selected it for. The only hesitation is if Microsoft suddenly drops the platform.

So far it accomplishes everything I need it to without unnecessary complications. The only reason I can think that I wouldn't renew is if I was required to use something else.

Avaza is very easy to use, but the mobile app needs work.

Incentivized

User friendly, easy to configure, and VERY simplistic. I particularly use heavily the phone app feature. While others in the room are on social media, I am reviewing my tasks and this triggers other tasks I know I need to get done. I like the sense of accomplishment of moving things to the completed pile as well.

It is super simple in its set up and easy to learn to use. Many other apps are overly complicated which TickTick is not. It always depende on what features you are looking for but I did not even need to explain anything to those who struggle with newer technology

Incentivized

They are always available and open to doing a call or a shared screen to walk through the issues.

I have not had an issue where I needed to reach out to Wunderlist, but I know their contact and online chat is easy to access and feel confident that they would be helpful. My only worry is Wunderlist is becoming Microsoft to-do in May 2020, and I believe the app will become worse after that.

Incentivized

In all honesty, we have never needed to reach out to TickTick for support.

Wunderlist giving 100% work satisfaction for me and my organization

Avaza takes the easy of Asana and adds the invoicing and bookkeeping capabilities you need all in one place.

Incentivized

It's a small tool compared to bigger project management software, but we found that they work perfectly together. It helps you declutter the larger PM tools, keep your smaller tasks in-line and make sure they get completed. When you're working in a creative agency, ideas and tasks are flying around, so having a tool like this that keeps you accountable and reminds you of your tasks is a must!

Incentivized

TickTick has a better UI and UX compared to the other competitors, and the Quick Add feature from any window is a must for inbox task management!

• Avaza has made it easier to see how long I spend on certain types of projects and where I could be spending more time.

Incentivized

• Its affordable enough that the limited set of problems it solves are worth the investment.
• If you already have Office 365 it doesn't really make sense unless you hate the task app.
• With Microsoft acquiring Wunderlist I wouldn't start investing in this product. I would either choose Office 365 and go with TO-DO or use a free app.

Incentivized

• Effective tracking of my time and tasks; made me understand the value of my time.
• Had a streak of 62 days straight where I didn't miss a single planned task.
• It has become a repository of all the dead tasks, projects, and ideas I can pick up whenever possible.
