Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I'm a Director at our company and have a ton of different tasks to do during the day. Todoist is easy to use and great when I need to make tasks on the fly and remind myself to do things. I can use Siri and computer shortcuts to easily mind dump my thoughts into a task to look into later.

Pros

  • Keyboard Shortcuts
  • Dictating to Siri to add a task
  • Adding tasks directly to my calendar

Cons

  • I'd like to see sub-tasks handled a bit differently. It's tough to see the breakout of tasks right from the page.

Likelihood to Recommend

I've used a few different systems, and I've found this one to be the easiest to pick up. I find other systems are overkill and offer a wide variety of features that are good in theory, but never get utilized. Todoist keeps things simple for me.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Todoist in our organization helps with efficient planning, tracking and solving tasks. Compared to other solutions, its big advantage is the integration with other systems (Asana, Outlook), a light application and the possibility of entering tasks and deadlines using natural language. For the entire time of using the program, we are delighted and have no significant reservations.

Pros

  • Task tracking
  • Task planning
  • Desktop app

Cons

  • Mobile app

Likelihood to Recommend

Todoist is a simple tool to learn and use effectively, and it's reasonably priced. It helps to monitor progress in tasks together and work effectively in a team.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Todoist is a wonderful tool to use for our organization's HR department as we have many moving parts to our day to day operations. In order to keep organized and complete long term projects at their calendared completion, I use Todoist as a task tracking by priority. Each day to day items is created as to keep a record, and "one-off" tasks are thrown into Todoist when approached to me via e-mail, word of mouth, or hand-written messages. Todoist is used as a tikler for Biweekly, Monthly, Quartley, and Yearly items that are of the upmost importance to the business and our department. Aside from work, Todoist is a great tool to use for home, especially if you are a full-time working parent with young children.

Pros

  • Task Managment
  • Organization of Priority of Tasks/Items
  • Peace of Mind (that everything has been touched on)
  • Record of completed tasks (in case of an audit)
  • Can make notes/updates for tasks
  • Can easily modify/edit a task
  • Can change a Due By date
  • Can set a recurring Tasks
  • Visually Pleasing and User Friendly

Cons

  • Integration with other Todoist Accounts
  • Does not update to current day sometimes
  • more capabilities with free option

Working at a school, some times of the year are busier and crazier than others. During a hectic time of year, Todoist acts as a "second brain" for all of the small tasks that need to be completed, alongside the larger projects that are taking priority at the time. For example, Open Enrollment is a crazy time of year and in 2021, we changed providers completely. This meant that instead of the easier, "passive enrollments", we were bringing on an entire new book of information for our employees. Many had questions and concerns that required our investigative work with our Brokers to find the best answers for our people. Todoist was a life-save for me as to not loose track of questions to ask or ongoing issues that are awaiting resolution. Because of the wonderful way to document in Todoist, I was able to pull information that an employee approached me with but did not fully remember she did so.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Todoist to communicate with my contract graphic designer. This keeps track of project threads and file uploads. Much better then dealing with this through email alone. Search feature is great too.

Pros

  • Quick Project setup
  • uploading and downloading files
  • Email notifications
  • Quick at a glance review of all projects

Cons

  • would be cool to 'complete' projects and delete them as well through email.
  • I've experienced issues with outages before which really messed things up. Rather it just be offline then online and not function properly such as missed messages.
  • Would be great to 'mark up' pdf and other files right through the app.

Likelihood to Recommend

Great for small teams and straightforward file transfers and communication.

Probably not as good for larger teams, but i'm not sure.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Todoist has proven to be an excellent tool to help me stay on track with my many responsibilities. It can help me organize my progress with recurring tasks, one-off items, and long-term projects as well. To do this helps me meet deadlines and present a responsible face forward to my clientele.

Pros

  • Task management
  • Project management
  • Accomplishing goals
  • Maintaining professionalism

Cons

  • Teamwork coordination
  • More sub-folders
  • Could be easier when it comes to de-cluttering one’s project list

Likelihood to Recommend

Todoist is excellent if you find yourself consistently falling behind schedule or at a loss at how to prioritize and juggle your many tasks and responsibilities. If you find yourself consistently failing to meet deadlines, or you have an employee who seems to struggle with prioritization of responsibilities, then this is a great tool to use.

Todoist - My go-to list and task manager.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Categorize by project and manage all my official (& personal) To-Do's in one location. The widget on my iPhone home screen provides me with a clear view of the upcoming items for the day. The ease of adding new items and setting due dates in conversational terms and especially directly from an email makes this an indispensable tool.

Pros

  • Forward an email to a project and convert it into a task.
  • Assigning due dates and recurrences.
  • Very useful iPhone widget.

Cons

  • A plug in for Safari browser would be useful.

Likelihood to Recommend

Mails that used to sit on my mailbox because they had a "to-do" in them now get into a prioritised list and onto my calendar.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I am using Todoist for my business and personal life. It handles all of my important tasks and project work. It keeps me focused and is my most used productivity tool. It organises all of my important tasks. It stops me from missing deadlines and losing track of my key projects.

Pros

  • Organises tasks and projects
  • Repeating and regular task management
  • Easy to use interface

Cons

  • Seriously, there isn't anything I could think of to improve with this app

Likelihood to Recommend

Todoist is great for anyone who enjoys being organised and productive. Everyone needs to manage tasks, it's a part of life! It comes into its own when you're juggling many balls. Being able to set a task in the future and be reminded of it at the right time is a priceless thing.

Task management tools aren't for everyone. If you're more creative or left-brained then this might not be suitable for you.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

To-Doist is used to prioritize tasks. This job, by nature, has many moving parts across separate domains, and prioritizing every bit of information can be very challenging. It addresses problems such as Forgetfulness, and looming deadlines. Things are no longer late, but rather right on time. I'm personally grateful that it is so easy to use, as a software or application that takes too long to learn how to use would have been quickly discarded, as time is very valuable.

Pros

  • Prioritization
  • Reminders
  • Deadlines

Cons

  • Voice Command option to add tasks
  • Seamless integration with Business Calendar 2
  • Different color themes

Likelihood to Recommend

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.

  • Serves as a extremely good reminder basically taking over majority of the functionality of both Google Canlendar and Google Task
  • Easy for collaborating with teammates, family memebers on different project; great structure and organization.

Cons

  • Come out with a calendar feature which will give user overall view of month or maybe year.
  • Write more documentations and tips and tricks to use the app for both new and seasoned users.
  • Keep improving and be inovative to make the app even better.

100% recommended even for the paid version; this app will change your life in ways that you won't expect. This app is orders of maginitude better than Google Task or Google Keep.
