    Nifty
    I've found myself recommending Nifty to other business owners as well as for personal use. I've personally found it to be invaluable when it comes to:
    • Daily / Weekly / Monthly / Quarterly recurring tasks
    • Creating templates for company processes such as new product creation, marketing strategy, on-boarding, quarterly goals, content management
    • Having forms zapped into a new task from multiple locations ensuring they're never overlooked
    • Having clear milestones and timelines for projects
    • Communicating on projects, tasks, and just in general
    • Assigning different components of projects to different people
    • Creating prior requirements that must be completed before completing the task

    Spike makes it simple to remain in touch with your peers and teams. It is simple, and searching for team members in the search tab is quick. Moreover, this tool makes screen sharing easier for presentations. The software is incredibly user-friendly and simple to use. Spike's versatility is enhanced via instant texting through this app. The visual and audio call quality is outstanding. Except for cloud storage, Spike does not connect with other applications. While there is a solid rationale for this, since everything - calendar, notes, tasks, team communication - can be made in the app, it loses some value if you prefer, for example, Microsoft To-Do and OneNote or Google Projects and Keep to organize your tasks and notes. I'd like to see a less costly email, calendar, and contacts-only subscription for solitary users.

    Cons
    Nifty
    • Time Expense could be improved since we cannot edit the previous/past time logs entered.
    • Lacks expense management and Purchase order management functionality
    • Newest product updates are not always stable and I had to reach Nifty's support team a couple of times in the past to fix the issues with new updates e.g. our document management and meeting integrations had to be re-authorized

    • I wish the calendar was more robust and provided a comprehensive look. I'd also want to have multiple windows open.
    • The inability to sync settings across devices. Configuring several devices with the same settings takes effort, particularly when it comes to custom IMAP.
    • Email Signature in HTML is still not taught as the capability, which I'd love to see.

    There's no comparison. Nifty does what all of these do all in one place (with the exception of Slack's community aspect with hashtagging - not sure if Nifty can do this, never tried) Nifty even has the ability to import directly from many other platforms - I've personally imported projects from Trello and Asana, saving tons of time in migration.

    The first one to use after google calendar is spike, after all the features that I've already mentioned,like the possibility to send a voice message, videos,photos etc... And the possibility to chat in real time and a good organization and planification and the priority feature is my favorite

    • However, the app is too tiny to accurately quantify its return on investment (ROI).
    • Multiple times, I've gotten to zero emails in my inbox.
    • It was easy to communicate without exchanging long texts.
