Read full review I don't know anything about pricing, but if Taskworld were an inexpensive choice I would say it works fairly well for small to mid-sized companies with complex workflows. It's great for managing tasks that move through multiple-stage pipelines that aren't necessarily linear. However, depending on the price it's not worth the spend for all the technical difficulties it brought. Our company was relatively small (60 employees) and yet we constantly faced "server issues" and bugs and even software-wide crashes that seriously impacted our ability to do business. If you choose to go with Taskworld, be sure you have a solid disaster-management plan in place just in case, because chances are you'll experience bugs on a weekly basis
Read full review Pros Provide a roadmap of all epics Provide a backlog in which you can see all the possible work to be done to create your sprint plan Have all our projects within reach Have a dashboard with editable columns to manage your work Be able to filter by person Be able to see past sprints Read full review Task Management - It's super easy to track progress on Taskworld. If your team keeps up with it, you'll never wonder where in the project someone is, because it's marked. Project checklists - Having these to organize out smaller portions of the tasks makes everything so much easier and helps keep track of progress. Read full review Cons More clarification on where to find useful tools and resources for new users. Breakdown of Projects, Tasks, Sub-tasks, bugs is hard to follow and cannot be changed once created. The ability to customize the dashboard/home page to fit the needs of individuals could use some work. Read full review Taskworld crashed ALL THE TIME. It was so frustrating. You'd notice certain functions not working (like adding an additional location or reassigning a task) and then the whole thing would go down. We lost at least 3 individual business days due to Taskworld acting up. We often requested features and bug fixes that took forever to be resolved. Taskworld staff was responsive, but issues took too long to resolve. As a small example, the GIF functionality of chat and task communication was down for weeks with no explanation. Small glitches were frequent and obnoxious. We had to clear caches all the time in hopes that we'd be able to use Taskworld the way it was intended. There were many times employees didn't get notified of their "@ mentions" or weren't seeing notifications at all. It was a nightmare of death by a thousand cuts. Read full review Support Rating I can't say too much about the support we've gotten from Taskworld, because we haven't needed it. There haven't been any issues we've to have to reach out about because it works too well. Given the quality of the application, I'm sure the quality of the support follows.

It has made the life of project managers easier to track the resolutions and efforts which was utilised for completing the task. It also provides the feature of attachment where users can attach their testing result/progress in the ticket created in Jira.

Basecamp very briefly before switching over to Taskworld.
Basecamp wasn't nearly as dynamic as Taskworld and served more as a static archive than an active workflow software.
