TickTick works well for personal use - managing daily and/or recurring to do's through a variety of lists. These can be renamed as needed. This has contributed to an increase in the completion of projects for me. TickTick also works well for collaboration on a list by list basis. Say that I have a project at work that I need to work with a teammate on - I can create the list and share it with my teammate. From there we can tag-team the project. There is the option for adding to-do lists inside of a top-level list and areas for commenting by the collaborators. This allows us to bypass unneeded meetings or emails to remember what needs to be done next on the project. TickTick may be less suited for situations where photos or files need to be shared for a project or for more complex project management.

The monthly calendar view gives me a broad overview of all the content we have in production.
The notes section within each blog topic helps me keep an organized list of items or links relevant to that topic.
The headline analyzer gives me another option to test my headline before publishing, to see how it scores.

Cons

Would like to replicate some of the functionality of Buffer (sharing other content easily from multiple sources) to consolidate our marketing calendar in one place.

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.

Based on 2 answers

I didn't have to use their official support, but I can say that they put out a lot of content online to help users. Their YouTube page has quite an array of tutorial videos explaining how things work and how to get the most out of their tools. If you're struggling, before picking up a phone or blasting off an email, try searching for your problem on YouTube or their forums.

CoSchedule provides collaborative planning of projects. The calendar view is very well designed. Meetings and tasks can be scheduled and tracked easily. Whatever is being done, no matter how big the task/project is, it gives a bird-eye view of everything. Additionally, it also integrated very well with WordPress. Their customer service team is also very helpful.

In researching options for our task manager, we chose to use TickTick because it was the most user-friendly. The platform made sense to us, is intuitive to use, is affordable for our needs, and has "smart" features that make our jobs easier. Trello is a great program and has the option for lists and things, but wasn't best suited for what we needed. There are a lot of other great features that Trello has that we don't need so chose to stick with a simpler program. We found Todoist after implementing TickTick and it looks like another great program but didn't have other things that we needed so we didn't consider switching.

Return on Investment

Probably too early to tell for certain but it is definitely value priced right now. Fully developed content management platforms are running in $15-$20k per year range and more. You can get into a CoSchedule solution for $
Team has found it easy to sign on and review tasks so this is a big time saver. More could be done to enable Guests easier access to content they need to review
It's way faster that other scheduling apps we have tried. The fact that it runs on a cloud based app or inside your Wordpress app is a real plus. Auto save feature also means you don't have to remember to save your content.

Our spaced out, recurring projects are getting done ON TIME instead of sporadically or not at all.
Our team is 20% less stressed about tasks because they are reminded of tasks and projects that need to be completed, instead of going off of memory. This has increased morale.
Ideas for business development are remembered and implemented more frequently because we have a place to write them down - instead of talking about them once and forgetting about it altogether.
