Overall Satisfaction with Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager

Our organization is large enough to allow individual teams to choose how we do task management. We have worked between Microsoft Planner and Todoist. They both have their ups and downs but Todoist and their small team of application developers have allowed for multiple incredible increases in feature set which I really appreciate it feels fast and agile compared to a bloated large multi million dollar organization like Microsoft.
  • Flexibility.
  • Tracking and reminders.
  • Team communications.
  • UI can feel cramped sometimes.
  • Tagging is not my preferred method of task tracking.
  • Not 100% great for super large task lists.
  • Assignment.
  • Reminders.
  • Lists and projects.
  • Lost time for “I forgot” has decreased.
  • Easier to inspect progress for my teams.
  • Team meetings have track ability now.
We have been back and forth with these two pieces of software through the years, Microsoft Planner ultimately is ever chosen for its integration with other Microsoft accounts and software. Todoist is ultimately the more flexible and better for smaller teams or projects. Anyone who is in the Mac ecosystem will likely see this as a no brainer to choose Todoist.

Do you think Todoist delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Are you happy with Todoist's feature set?

Yes

Did Todoist live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of Todoist go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Todoist again?

Yes

I think it is great for inbox management and smaller to mid sized lists of tasks. For larger projects I’ve found the kanban style and integration with Microsoft teams of Microsoft Planner to be very helpful for our team.

Each team and person is different. So I think a lot of the decision making process is to how YOUR team communicates best.

Todoist is very flexible however so hopefully they will work for you.
