Use Cases and Deployment Scope

This is our favorite to-do app! Our entire team uses it. Although we're using other project management tools in order to run our business, Wunderlist is used for small tasks that would fall through the cracks without it. For example, action items from meetings, quick tasks that come up during the day etc.

Pros and Cons

Segmenting your to-do's in separate lists
Having notes with each to-do
It has notifications feature as well as due date

I'd love to see integrations between Wunderlist and tools like Slack or Drive

Return on Investment

It helps our team complete tasks on time, securing better ROIs.
No tasks are being forgotten, leading to better client retention.
The team is getting serious momentum from being able to see and finish the tasks. We even applaud every time we hear the little "ding!" when the task is completed. :)

Alternatives Considered

Basecamp and Teamwork Desk

It's a small tool compared to bigger project management software, but we found that they work perfectly together. It helps you declutter the larger PM tools, keep your smaller tasks in-line and make sure they get completed. When you're working in a creative agency, ideas and tasks are flying around, so having a tool like this that keeps you accountable and reminds you of your tasks is a must!

Other Software Used

Basecamp, HubSpot, Teamwork Projects

Likelihood to Recommend

It's such a simple and effective tool! If you need an app to safely store your To-do's and make sure you stay on top of things, this is it. You can divide tasks lists into folders (like "home" and "business"), share the lists with co-workers, set notifications, even mark items as a priority. It's great for smaller, day-to-day tasks but if you need something to manage a bigger project or a team, you should look into more robust project management tools. Although this is a great app, it cannot replace tools like TeamWork, Basecamp etc. But they work great together!

Great tool to make sure you get everything done!
