Considered Both Products	Google Tasks EW Ethan Whitted Project Manager Chose Google Tasks Google Tasks is much more lightweight and better for personal task management, which other software like ClickUp is too overbearing and clunky for.

AK Ann Korb Administrator Chose Google Tasks We switched from Google Tasks to Todoist as we like the layout and the functions more, even though we still use all the other Google programs.

Verified User Employee Chose Google Tasks I will give a edge to Google task as being more compatible and easy because of free tool with reupdated image in the market. The Microsoft Planner will come with little cost. Google task will help you to create multiple lists, change the order of tasks and sort your to-do-lists. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Manager Chose Google Tasks It's better than Keep notes in some areas but worse in others. Mostly just this: you can search.

Shachar Tal Founder Chose Google Tasks Almost all of the to-do apps try to have a "must have" feature that will draw users to it.

Likelihood to Recommend	Google 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. Incentivized AK Ann Korb Read full review
Pros	Google 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. BD Bigneshwar Das Student Read full review
Cons	Google 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. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Usability	Google 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. BD Bigneshwar Das Student Read full review
Support Rating	Google 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. BD Bigneshwar Das Student Read full review
Alternatives Considered	Google 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.

Return on Investment	Google 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 Incentivized EW Ethan Whitted Project Manager Read full review
