Likelihood to Recommend If other google products are already in use, it is very easy to get into Google Tasks as well and everybody probably has a google account, hence, does not need another account as well. It is helpful for simple to do lists, we would not recommend for larger project planning.
Read full review The best part about Meistertask is how dead simple it is, while still absolutely nailing what it needs to really get right. Meistertask makes task management dead simple for me and keeps the detail out of the way unless I specifically need it.
Read full review Pros The best part, Google Tasks is FREE. No paywall, no ads. Just pure productivity. I was looking for some task-management app which is free, since it was difficult to get a paid one. I found that this was the perfect solution for me. It's deeply integrated with other Google services like Gmail and Calendar. It can pick tasks with Gmail from emails, in the form of suggestions. It's up to you, completely. The tasks will appear in your calendar automatically, if it's time or date specific. It's simple and hassle free to insert tasks and complete them. The app loads fast and hardly faces any crash. I encountered no such crashes. It is present in multiple platforms. I would create a task in my phone, and would check it off on my laptop. It's hassle free to add and check off tasks. It was very helpful for me in college. Read full review The learning curve is really short compared to other software that is related to this. It is very easy to manage several projects at the same time, thus saving time in the work process. Managing the elements of the list is very comfortable since its interface allows everything to work in an orderly manner based on what I want to put as important for me. It has versions that are adapted to any type of company or if you want to give a personal use because it also has an option based on what you want to do with MeisterTask. Read full review Cons It may take some time & adjustments to build a workflow that covers your specific needs. Need a feature to hide tasks that are weeks or even months ahead into the future. Missing a full tab view where you can see all your different lists of tasks. Read full review Some detailed task definitions may be difficult to implement. Those using traditional project tools may find MeisterTask a little bit superficial and scattered. Often you may need additional tools to complete the inefficiencies of Kanban board (no analytics for team performance, lack of time planning, etc.). Reports and analytics are limited. Read full review Usability 1. It's very easy to use and very user friendly. 2. It has all the essentials of a task-management app. 3. It is free and there is neither any paywall, nor any kind of ads. 4. It's hassle free to add or to check off any tasks in this app. 5. There is solid integration between tasks and other Google apps like Gmail and Calendar. 6. Never crashed, very rare chances of instability. 7. Support is very poor, don't expect more from a free app. 8. Acceptable Natural Language Processing ability.
Read full review Support Rating Since the app is free, we can't expect to get a great support. 1. The app does not even have a dedicated forum where other members can help each other. 2. The app only has a feedback option, which I rarely think visits the team. 3. Even after sending many feedbacks, you can't expect a reply. 4. In a nutshell, if you face any problem, you can just wait. Nothing more than that.
Read full review Meister task is a great project management app. However, I moved to a move extensive project management tool for our growing team
Read full review Alternatives Considered Google Tasks is not necessarily better than its competitors and certainly not as robust or complex as most to-do applications and platforms available in the market, but because it is automatically integrated into G Suite services--our primary technology interface--this free option has precluded us from needing to explore other tools that are often "better" but not as intuitive when so much time and focus is already spent within the Google ecosystem.
Read full review Meistertask seems like it was made for work, and it doesn’t hide its features amid complicated menus. The Mobile experience is one of the best I have used in task management. It integrates with other tools more widely via Zapier and various built-in ecosystem connections within the Meisterlabs space. If you need to get started simplifying your digital life, this can help.
Read full review Return on Investment Personally, has managed over 1280 tasks for me in the past couple of years that I have been able to check off thanks to the app Has accurately allowed me personally to schedule out tasks into the future that I want to get done but don't have the mental space currently to be trying to remember or do Read full review MeisterTask saves me a lot of time in communicating about various tasks of a project. The activity chat feature lets me communicate with other members of my team without having to be in the same location as them, and increasing our productivity. It has caused me to use some additional time though, and create a Gantt chart myself instead of being able to use a built-in feature. MeisterTask is great for letting us organize and keep track of all aspects of a project and make sure each one gets done by its respective due date. Read full review ScreenShots
