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

Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is my task and project management software for every task of my company. It provides a robust and flexible framework for structuring projects, recurring tasks, managing deadlines, and setting up filters and saved searches, among other features.

I also happen to rely on Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager for personal and household task management.

Pros

  • Accessible from any platform
  • Excellent iPhone app
  • Fast task entry with smart interpretation of dates, projects, and other metadata
  • Undergoing rapid iterative development with a responsive support team and excellent "Ambition & Balance" blog from the company

Cons

  • Mac app (my primary platform) is lackluster; it seems to be a wrapper to the web interface. They should have a native app to compete better with Things 3 on a Mac
  • The new board view (Kanban view) is great, but it's brand new and could use some enhancements to catch up to Trello, monday.com, etc.
  • The completed task log is really slow
  • I wish the sync, security, encryption, and privacy features were clearer, better, and more transparent
  • Sync across multiple devices
  • Flexible today, upcoming, and filter views
  • Intelligent task entry for frictionless open-loop capture
  • Increased efficiency
  • Negligible marginal cost for Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager Premium
  • Best-in-class task management for getting things done
Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is a more focused to-do app than monday.com or even Trello. It is simple yet flexible. However, Kanban power users will be underwhelmed by the limited functionality of the new board view. I hope that Doist will keep up the rapid pace of development to make the board functionality even more useful.

Did implementation of Todoist go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy Todoist again?

Yes

Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is a flexible tool for solo or team use, to-do list/GTD mavens, and (more recently) Kanban enthusiasts. However, Kanban pros coming from Trello might be disappointed by the more limited functionality of the brand-new board features. The free version of Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager gives you a lot of what you might need indefinitely, but I quickly upgraded to the affordable premium subscription to take advantage of the complete feature set.
