MeisterTask Reviews: 4.5/5 — Highly Rated

It is the most intuitive and simplest collaboration tool. I tried so many of these tools and most I tossed out before learning about all the features. I need something that I can start using as of today instead of investing time and time again to figure out the basic features. MeisterTask is super simple and the one you will figure how to use in no time.

Nothing. It is simple, so don't expect any wonders. The only thing I would change would be the interface colors once Tasks are opened.

I use it as my main collaborative and task tool (I others as well, preferred by other people). MeisterTask helps me organize my projects and daily tasks in a clear and simple and clear way.

The design is simple and effective but still attractive. Very easy to organize projects and tasks. Our office uses the free version and it works perfectly for us. I can only assume the higher tiers offer even more features.

I prefer the browser version to the desktop software. The desktop version seemed more clunky.

Teammates can see the progress of projects and tasks. Easy to share information across team and assign tasks. Can add notes and files to projects as well as archive them.

Meistertask's simplicity, both in design and usability, makes it a pleasure to work with. They are also constantly updating with new functionalities.

I don't like that you can't customize the color scheme.

We are using this to track workflows and to communicate with other team members about the status of tasks. This cuts down on a lot of e-mails and IMs we previously had been trading.

The interface is intuitive, clear and attractive. It offers kanban functionality and easy sharing for teams.

There isn't anything that I particularly dislike about the software. It provides exactly what is says on the box.

The organisation I work for needed a location for a log of incidents and MeisterTask provided a perfect solution. In addition, a very important major project for the company needed a project management record that could be reviewed by management. We will continue to use the product for future projects and logs.

Intuitive, smooth. Each project you set is customizable, and you can move tasks within the various projects you create. Archiving is handy for when you need to retrieve an old or completed task. Assiging tasks in easy, system doesn't get in the way of what you're trying to do. It doesn't fill up my screen, either, which I appreciate. No ads, simple and straightforward. Helps me keep track of my work.

The number of integrations available; it doesn't cover your basics, like Microsoft apps.

It's my task manager. I use it to keep track of my work, and meet deadlines.

I love that you can assign tasks to different employees and track time for each task all in the same system. It is very user friendly and easy to use for multiple tasks and jobs.

I wish the time tracking could flow over to other platforms as well as stay in meistertask to use for payroll reporting continuity.

Task assignment to employees as well as time management.

I love that I can keep track of my to-do list on meistertask

There is not much that I do not like about MeisterTask

We are able to create a work through by moving tasks to different columns assigned to different people. We are also able to keep tabs on our to-do list progress

I live in leister every day. It is my go to for my entire to do list, which is very well organized. The ability to customize project names, colors, icons, tags, etc really helps me bc I am more of a visual person.

The integration with freshdesk is lacking a bit. They have some bugs but support is amazing and they usually get them corrected pretty quickly.

Managing my crazy to do list. Managing my customer accounts (I have a huge call initiative going right now)

I love how easy it is to organize and keep track of projects with Meistertask. It is beautiful visually, which really helps. I appreciate the collaboration part of it - it's easy to keep track of my intern's work and see her progress on projects.

Sometimes it seems like you have to click a lot of buttons to get to a feature you want - like archive, or add notes. There's more than one way to get to certain features, and maybe it'd be easier if they were all accessible the same way.

This allows me to view all of my projects in one glance, which really helps me understand what my work load is like at any given time. I also like that I can add notes here and there, that i can refer back to when I'm ready to tackle the project.

The ability to drag and drop tasks from Open to In Progress to Completed. You also have the ability to create your own categories and can move them back and forth accordingly. Also having multiple projects created at one time is fantastic. Having daily emails reminding me of deadlines, and the integrations available to connect to slack and such are seamless.

It gets cumbersome to assign myself the task every time I create a task in one of my projects.

Not only is it fantastic for personal task management, it's fantastic for team task management, and project management with teammates who work remotely.

bright, easy to use, sensible design - amazing customer service

I wish there were more integrations to use.

Great way to organize projects, tasks and assignees - in a custom brand-centric format.

I immediately loved how it has pre-built lists for "Open", "In Progress" & "Done". It's exactly how I would label other lists in alternative task managers. My favorite thing about MeisterTask is the UI/UX. It's absolutely beautiful, intuitive and simple to use. Great background imagery, and the daily quotes are a clever little addition too.

I wish that when I created a task card it would auto-assign it to me. It would be okay if this was a setting I had to toggle to activate but it gets very tedious when I need to assign several cards at once. I also would love to be able to filter due tasks with a pop out calendar.

I run my own marketing consultancy so I have a few clients and my own business tasks to track. MeisterTask allows me to set up boards by client, and share boards individually, either with clients or other people I contract to help me. All the other boards are kept private for my own use.

I like that you can assign tasks, and also assign a due date.

I don't love the lay out/interface. It's hard to see everything all at once.

We are solving collaboration problems. We used to have meetings with action points that would never get done. Now after a meeting, people are able to be followed up with and held accountable to complete their task.

I like how the free tier has lots of very useful options: multiple projects. It can handle fairly complicated projects with lots of cards. I'm a freelancer, so I just need to keep all my business projects straight and don't need to collaborate. Perfect for this purpose.

I wish that it accommodated code a little better as I have many cards that have different code snippets and there isn't a native way that I've found to keep those straight. So for using much code organization, you'd be better off with a tool like bitbucket's code snippets. I still find myself storing little bits of code in Meistertask when it's something directly related to a specific item in a specific project.

I use it every day to keep 20+ different projects and clients straight each one of those projects having multiple columns of tasks. It's great. I archive when done so finished projects aren't clogging up the display but there's a global search so I can access past projects if/when needed.

- the playful interface - customization options for each board - the board overview page (landing page) with the nice welcome message which changes every time - sync between mobile and web of your boards - sync with the mind mapping app - mindmeister - time tracking for each task - a large variety of icons for your sections - ability to import my trello project to this one (unless it was a really large project - in that case i got an error)

- not as many options as trello which comes with a variety of plugins (chrome extensions) for burndown charts, assigning story points to tasks, etc - the fact that you cannot assign more than 1 person to a task - encountered issues while trying to search for particular tasks in a large board - the fact that you can only move a task from one section to another via drag and drop - this can get hard on a board with multiple sections and each section with multiple tasks

- task management for small teams - management of personal projects and tasks - introducing new teams to the kanban workflow

meistertask is the leading project management tool in the market, I have been using it for the past year and it's just flawless. I wish I had another way of rephrasing these words.

I haven't found anything yet. the platform is just the best of out the best

project management

The look and feel of this software is outstanding!

Lack of native calender view like that of the Calendar power up on Trello and you can’t configure an end time on due dates.

Managing my business on a daily basis as I have got busier has been getting increasingly difficult. MeisterTask has helped me to keep up with both daily tasks and projects with a beautiful UI which is a joy to use.

It is easy to use. The color coding, due date assignment, and subtask features really help manage workflow.

I don’t really dislike anything about MeisterTask. I just wish I knew more about some of the features before I began using it.

I use MeisterTask to organize checklists and manage agendas for tactical meetings.

Meistertask has a nice and clear design. It is easy and intuitive to use. I can use it on my computer or on my phone anytime and anywhere. This allows me to respond to changes, comments etc. very quickly. It helps to stay organised and is perfect for day to day operations.

If you are offline, changes won't be saved.

It is really great for personal tasks and small projects. I also use it for taking notes.

The ability to customize each project and each category within the project. I can add sections in each category, if I want an Idea section I can add it, color code it and much more. This gives you the ability to make Meistertask anything you want it to be, and make it work for your needs. The Free features are all you need for basic needs, but the Pro features are also a nice add-on for advanced workers.

On the Free version, you are only allowed to use 2 plug-ins in each project. So you would be limited to Slack & GitHub and not be able to add Office 365 or another plug-in that the software offers. The lack of wallpapers for the dashboard is the other problem, Pro users can use their own backgrounds but Free Users are limited to solid colors or a mix of all backgrounds.

For my business, I have a set-up of LocalHost, App & Main Website. From each Project I am able to create an Idea section, Working On section, Complete section and others. This helps us take tasks from the very beginning to the end, get feedback from our staff on each stage of the progress as well. It makes running our projects more reliable and quicker from start to finish.

When looking for a free solution to our project management woes, we ran across Meistertask. We collaborate with a contracted grant writer who regularly needs information, documents, etc on top of the need to manage more than 50 grants effectively. This tool has been great for us, easy to use and of course... free!

It would be great to be able to sort tasks by date due. Currently that function is not available, but it is not too hard to organize them. If this was added, I would say there would be very little to criticize about Meistertask.

We are solving project management issues when not all team members see each other frequently. It's great to all be able to be on the same page! We use it for our contracted staff to keep in touch with our on-site salaried staff... it works like a charm!

Since we started with MeisterTask we have developed a much more agile communication. Email exchanged dropped to almost zero on some projects run on MeisterTask. We can now have an overlook of the status of each project and how is in charge for what. This guys made a great job and it works seamlessly on every platform. Couldn't live without :-)

Could have more integration. Could do a gant chart view.

MeisterTask is the one stop shop for project management and daily operations. With new add on integration's and its already powerful setup its a one stop shop!!

Removing users from projects is a little tedious but you can get it done.

Project Tracking, Employee Task Tracking, Office Communication and file transfer, It has made us work more productive and make sure balls don't get dropped

I liked the assigning and time allotting thing in this, and the notification structure is very nice. it always gives you an update when anything changes at task. And the things Meistertask is giving at free, most companies asking loads of money for that.

I have been using this for about two months, I have not disliked it for now. I may haven't used every feature of this platform, but yeah I didn't disliked anything.

planning, task management, and streamlining works. I really appreciate what meistertask is offering without even buying it, great work team !

It is for organizing and management of task in a customizable environment that adapts to our individual needs because it creates stream lined workflows being done together.

None so Far. This application has been helpful in terms of managing task because with this we may assign tasks to specific team members and act as a task watcher to ensure nothingfalls through.

Collaborate on tasks and share ideas in one central location. Create a list of tasks to complete. Access your team’s projects and tasks straight from your desktop with the MeisterTask apps for Windows and Mac.

The program is visually elegant, simple to use, and has all of the features required to get started in the free edition. I really enjoy the fact that I can add comments, links, tags, and checklists to each task entry. I can divide projects and assign duties to team members.

It would be wonderful to have an overview timeline for all team members in one account, similar to a monthly summary of the team's movement, so we can see what is going on and what is coming up for each team member.

MeisterTask simplifies project management. We can arrange crew deployment and issue post-production work in a more organized manner, especially when working with several deadlines.

MeisterTask has a clean and user-friendly design that enables users to leverage this project management solution remarkably easily. Also, it's pretty straightforward to manage several projects and sub-tasks at the same time.

One feature that I feel is lacking on MeisterTask is a workflow calendar, highlighting scheduled and completed tasks daily, allowing for a complete picture of job productivity.

We can create, manage, and work on several projects simultaneously with MeisterTask, even when working from different locations. The more significant benefit of using this software is that it is straightforward, reasonably priced, and widely available due to its cross-platform compatibility.

Based on the prices, this software maintains options with different functionalities in each of the versions it offers, which sometimes most of these tend to have high prices, and likewise can be a little difficult to choose the appropriate extension for the work environment of the company that requires these solutions, being a problem, since mostly several of these are needed for a good job, making the cost rise unwisely.

We chose to work with this software, because its functionalities are essential in great amounts, since its rate of success to culminate with the daily work, daily, is elevated, being of great importance to fulfill our work thus to arrive at the predicted objectives and to make concrete the statistical and economic results that are so hoped for in our organization, compiling the flows of work based on all that has to execute this one day, confirming an increase in the collaboration between teams and of equal way the productivity.
