Overall Satisfaction with OmniFocus

As a film & TV composer, I often juggle many projects at once. I've used just about every task manager in existence in my 15+ years in the industry, and OmniFocus does the best job at keeping me organized, letting me know when things are due, and what I need to work on next.
  • Repetitive tasks
  • Organization of tasks by Folder and Project
  • Consistent updates and improvements
  • Most expensive task manager on the market
  • Can be daunting if you're a new user
  • Needs the ability to attach files and handle hyperlinks smoother
  • Saves time
  • Overall is cheaper than hiring an assistant to keep track of this stuff for me
  • Keeps me from forgetting tasks or missing appointments (calendar integration)
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.

Yes

Would you buy OmniFocus again?

Yes

OmniFocus is great for power users - if you're someone who's managing multiple projects at once, or a combo of work and home projects, it's the best at keeping you organized. If you're more of a daily task person, someone who just wants to know what has to be done that day and you don't catalog long term projects, then it's probably too much for you.
