Shortcut is a project management platform designed for software development that unites issue tracking, sprint planning, roadmaps and goals. Formerly known as Clubhouse, Shortcut is headquartered in New York City.
Shortcut is very useful to organice your teams, we use it for Devs, Sales, Marketing and Customer Support areas. Each team has different objectives but the topics where 2 or more areas are involved, is when it shines with the categorization, sub-stories and story relationships. Everyone can see the updates and progress of the stories and receive notifications so the communication between the teams flows naturally
It's great for everyday use, whether you adhere to the GTD regimen fully or just need a way to quickly capture and sort your tasks. However, it may be less suited if you're looking for a task manager that lets you collaborate with others or if you want to visualize your tasks in other ways, like a Gantt chart.
As I said before Shortcut helped us to implement the SCRUM Methodology in our company we are using it since it was known as Clubhouse.io, the user-friendly interface and flexibility is great
The interface of Things was good 10 years ago, and has been refined ever since. It's lightweight, while still being readable and showing just the information you need to see. Also, something I haven't seen in any other (of my) app(s) is the keyboard shortcut/launcher, where you start typing a letter, and a dropdown menu lets you quickly jump to a view.
Shortcut is a more robust platform to organice our teams and, it uses the "kanban model" as trello but the customization and the organization via stories and epices are preferred by our devs
I've tried numerous to-do apps, some that never even go out of beta. But I kept returning to Things, mostly for the user experience. It's unobtrusive and fast to use, and it looks fantastic, which is more important than I first realized. To become more organized, my app of choice needs to look organized. Also, many competing solutions are trying to force you into one way of using their app, while Things feels more open to letting you define your way of working with task management.
