1) Great for managing your work and personal activities. 2) One of the best implementations of the Getting Things Done method. 3) Not really suited for collaborative work management; OmniFocus is managed on a per-user basis so you can't share/assign tasks.

It does well as a CRM for a company to see all of their candidates or clients or whatever they are tracking. The sorting and grouping ability as well as the inclusion of many formula integrations is also helpful to organize content more meaningfully. If you don't have a lot of information that you need to track, this might have more than you require but it is still a great software to use.

Ease of viewing what tasks need to be done at the present moment and the sorting of those tasks by availability, due date, start date, needed resources, and project.
The visual interface is really nice to work with, the UX/UI is intelligent and intuitive.
It's the most extensible software I've used. There is a community of people that publish compatible scripts for Omnifocus at no charge.
The code is robust and I've almost never had a bug or a glitch that resulted in issues.
The software syncs in the cloud between MacOS and iOS seamlessly and faster than other To-Do software. The sync aspect is available free of charge.
The development team at Omnifocus is on top of bugs and they have been adding releases regularly to increase functionality and performance.
While OmniFocus adheres to the GTD (Getting things done) principles, it can be used in almost any manner and you aren't stuck with just that methodology.

I would really like to see graphic presentations of how I allocate my time, what categories of tasks don't get accomplished, etc.
I would like to see OmniFocus include Gantt chart functionality, such as allowing me to see how long it took me to accomplish a task from start to finish. Allowing me to actually input time spent, and seeing it on a Gantt chart, would be icing on the cake.

SeaTable is a young company, and I have nothing to criticise, for now. - No solution will fit all use cases, in any event. --- I have found this one to be the most adaptable and complex on the European market. Due to the data location, I am reassured on the subject of GDPR compliance.

OmniFocus has excellent user forums. They're active as well as mature, since the product has been around for years. I've never needed to actually contact customer support because OmniFocus is popular enough that I've always been able to find an answer in the forums, or in an article, or in a YouTube video.

OmniFocus is built for the user with a lot going on - consequently, it does a great job at organizing lots of things in a manageable workload. It's perfect for taking a project and breaking it down into small tasks for yourself or teams. Once you get past the learning curve, it's quick at adding new tasks. Overall, it's an excellent product.

For the value, you get much more with SeaTable including the statistics and the number of records that can be utilized on the free version. I also thoroughly enjoy the ease of adding formulas and having the reference right inside of the platform to ensure the selection of the correct formula to meet your needs.

OmniFocus keeps our tasks moving forward. Using a free script you can search all your current projects for projects that have no next step assigned to it to ensure nothing falls through the cracks.
When we serve our clients, the attention to detail we are able to give them comes from accurate tracking of what we need to deliver.
We complete projects 25% faster than before and we can see where the bottlenecks are immediate. We have also been forced to document tasks in a more concrete manner which allows for better execution.

Positive: Savings in administrative staffing needs.
Positive: Customisation allows for real-life workflow management
Positive: Automation is a goal that SeaTable supports very well.
Negative: Not many people are familiar with solutions like SeaTable. They are used to working with inflexible (and often not-fit for purpose) administrative systems. They are adept at finding ways to circumvent the issues by using secondary tools, or they wait passively for web developers to deliver the functionality they need. - It is quite difficult to convey the opportunities that SeaTable offers to people who have not used it before. SeaTable cannot be blamed for this, but it creates work in needing to convey this to the organisation's stakeholders. --- I would recommend one person to be assigned the role of SeaTable specialist in an organisation, so that any issues can be quickly resolved.
