Likelihood to Recommend This tool enables the visual management needed in many offshore teams to easily and quickly see the pending work, work in progress and completed work.For teams that work with a waterfall methodology and do not have AGILE internalized, I believe there are other solutions from Planview or other providers.
Read full review There have been lots of times when we need to add a new habit into our daily work routines, and having the option to do so in the To-Doist app on the very first screen is incredibly helpful. It's a good reminder, and I believe that professionals who truly appreciate and properly value the implementation of good habits would be very grateful for this feature. It's also a time saver because you don't have to manually type it in every day/week / etc.
Read full review Pros Ability to color code cards based on type, giving better visibility to the variety of tasks a team handles Ability to set deadline dates and have those dates easily visible Flexibility in design the kanban board. It is easy to add a lane or make a change on the fly. Work doesn't have to stop and a long process created to make simple layout changes. Movement of cards is easy as well as the ability to connect cards to show dependencies. Read full review Free plan offers two viewing options and 4 color themes; paid plans offer more Can integrate with Google Calendar, IFTTT, and Zapier apps Viewing format is pretty uncomplicated, including sidebar, easy on the eyes Importable and exportable data, emails Optional beta testing opportunities (can opt in/opt out at any time) Read full review Cons Planview LeanKit currently can't or should not be used as a central spot for data and collaboration. Particularly attachments are not well-handled. The portable side of Planview LeanKit is really lacking. We would appreciate some options to group or stack cards. Read full review The Todoist application now works almost identically across all platforms. There is a minor improvement that I would like to see on iOS and that is the ability to show task count by custom filter. In Board view, I want to be able to easily add sub-tasks to a parent task. Besides those two minor improvements, I am extremely happy with the application. Read full review Likelihood to Renew Perfect tool to manage requirement backlog
Read full review Usability LeanKit isn't the best designed Kanban system I've seen, but overall it's pretty usable. The boards I've used are pretty complex, so it can be difficult to find things. I found that searching and filtering for specific cards was somewhat of a challenge. Dragging a card from one lane to another is kind of a fun way to get things done though.

Read full review Excellent features and concept, simple implementation, but the software is not very clear in training new users and communicating features. The occasional unexplained crash or freeze is not handled gracefully by the desktop software, requiring either the user or tech support to manually restart.

Read full review Support Rating It solves all our needs at this time.
Read full review I've used Todoist for about three years now and I haven't needed to contact support, which I'm considering a 10 out of 10. Honestly, their platform is so easy to use that I never had to look up a knowledge base or forum to be able to do what I wanted in Todoist. So I'm not sure what their support system looks like or how it works, but I do know that if I haven't needed support, that's also a good sign!

Read full review Alternatives Considered I think that LeanKit is very similar to
Asana 's Kanban feature and
Trello , but is much less sleek looking than
Asana .
Asana 's clean and sleek UI makes me enjoy project management much more than LeanKit. It might sound silly that the UI makes so much of a difference to me, but it really does.
Trello is also sleeker than LeanKit, but I still prefer
Asana because it has more customization options and a better interface. We are actually going to look into switching to
ClickUp because we wanted something with a better UI.
ClickUp seems to have a great UI with a lot of customization options.
Read full review [Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager] is significantly simpler and cheaper than most of the alternatives and doesn't complicate the management of tasks with a plethora of unnecessary features. While all the alternatives have strong feature sets, what Todoist does better than any of them is manage tasks, in theory the central point of them all.

Read full review Return on Investment Our team meetings are more direct and quick to get through thanks to the better visibility of the workload Easily being able to move cards between team lanes gives instant visibility to where the responsibility for the next step is needed. Read full review Location-based reminders ensured that my staff didn't miss things when they went onsite with a customer. This has led to renewals on a regular basis. Sharing of task visibility for managers with their direct reports has enhanced 1-on-1 meetings and ensured that field coaches kept focused The cost of Todoist vs. the value it creates is a huge selling point for the software. For the price per user, I've found nothing that even comes close! Read full review ScreenShots Planview AgilePlace Screenshots
