There is nothing I have disliked so far.

"Powerful Kanban Task Management tool"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

Kanban task management style, very flexible, good for teams/collaboration, fantastic mobile apps. I was looking for a Trello alternative when I found this tool a year ago.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I like their Grant chart feature, but it's on the expensive membership tier. Would be nice if they had local pricing for other country users. Sometimes I type Task Meister instead of Meister Task and go to another website :P

"My favorite task management app"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

The best of MeisterTask is that it is simple with a beautiful interface that allows me to get the most out of my work and tasks. From being able to add as many members as I want to managing a workflow that is flexible and adjusts to everyone’s schedule, I think MeisterTask comes with functional and capable features that make things easier. When it comes to communicating with other team members, it comes with an intuitive and modern platform in which everyone can communicate, share tasks, files, and discuss things that are in relation to the project we’re working on.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I have not found any dislikes in this app yet and it continues to work perfectly.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

From being unorganized to being extremely synchronized and delivering all of our deadlines in time, MeisterTask has succeeded in making us a very powerful team and helped us in improving the areas we were lacking in. The Kanban Boards have been of great help and its easy to identify all these projects with said boards located in a nice way in the app. We’re not a big team and still using MeisterTask has improved all our workflow methods and we are able to track tasks faster and finish things earlier.

"Great Product!"

The simple customization and ease of use.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

The limitation on the number of projects on the free accounts. It used to be unlimited, but since has changed to only allow 3 projects.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

Keeping organized is the biggest thing. Helping many people stay focused on what is important and seeing a task complete through from beginning to end and nothing gets missed along the way.

"Handy and clean Kanban solution"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

I like the simplicity of the user interface yet rich in features! Everything is on the tips of your fingers and I can have a good understanding of the big picture at a glance when reviewing the whole board. Also the dashboard is really helpful when you need to focus on specific tasks between multiple projects.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I would have liked the free version to supprot multiple checlist on one card but I guess this is a just tradeoff.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

Organizing long and multitask projects collaborating with other peers.

"MeisterTask is an excellent kanban board platform"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

The UI is intuitive and easy to use. Setting up boards for project management is straightforward. I have used Trello and find MeisterTask to be easily as good.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

There isn't anything I dislike. It is a clean interface and does what I need.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

Planning complicated projects by separating into subject boards with tasks. It provides a good way to break big subjects into manageable pieces and gives a clear over view of progress.

"Using MeisterTask to streamline my game development"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

MeisterTask is very intuitive, the flow just feels right. I love that it syncs between the browser app and my phone app. I can be sitting on the thrown and have a task idea, write it down, and when I get back to my desk its waiting to be implemented. Using this app has breathed new life into my game development production flow.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

No complaints! Really its great. I Highly recommend it.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

MeisterTask helps me juggle all the ideas I have for my production. I used to get distracted with new ideas, and bounce back in forth trying to implement everything at once, but never really finishing anything completely. Now I can focus on one task at a time. And as new ideas pop into my head, I jump into MeisterTask, write them down, and then get back to focus on the task at hand.

"My right hand as a project manager"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

The to do-list on the front page helps me get an overview of what I have left that day, and what is to do tomorrow. It is easy to change along the way, and the feeling of ticking the "complete"-box when a job is done, is delightful. And the beautiful pictures and layout makes me enjoying making projects and I always have it in view on my screen.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I would like the completed tasks to jump below the not completed tasks, or jump to a "completed"-bar.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

To have control over the tasks that are due in the days to come. It is my memory so I don't have to remember it all.

"Great for helping you sort your life and your business tasks!"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

I like that it lets you customize your dashboard on the site and see your progress right from the main screen before you go into the project directly. I have convinced other people to use meistertask just by working with them and showing them how easily I could track the projects I was working on.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

The price is a little bit higher than I like sometimes but its affordable for what it provides. I have noticed a couple of times that if someone moved a task from a project I did have access to, to one I did not, it would show a weird error message.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am working as a consultant and tech for multiple companies that use meistertask. I also use it myself and it has allowed me to connect up projects to give me an overview to make sure I focus on the right tasks at the right time.

"Easy, user friendly and adaptable"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

MeisterTask helps organize multiple tasks both within your remit and across teams. It’s so easy to add, assign and share jobs.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

Sometimes the platform will not let you reorganize tasks to make the most important ones appear first.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

Sharing multiple jobs across different team Members, group communication and project management. It helps me and our team stay on target without confusion, and has been especially valuable during covid-19.

What do you like best about MeisterTask?

Keeps me on point to get stuff done. Plus great way to organize thoughts and ideas for projects.

I can't say there is much I dislike about Meister Task. There is a little learning curve to be able to take advantage of all the features.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

We buy and sell homes and use it to keep up us on task for all the things involved. Also, like it for To-Do items and setting and achieving goals.

"Favorite Task Management Tool!"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

Kanban-style task management is great. As my day-to-day priorities change and shift, so can my tasks. I have always loved writing down tasks and checking them off, but utilizing Meistertask is a much more productive use of my time.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

My only request is that I'd love to be able to set recurring tasks, similar to Wunderlist. When I complete the task, I check it off, and it gets shifted to another list or due date. You can also title each section whatever you'd like. I'd like it to be more intuitive. I typically title them by date or priority. I'm sure other people do the same, so it would be cool if it could recognize some often used titles.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I save a lot more time by utilizing MeisterTask rather than hardcopy checklists. It also helps to avoid allowing things to slip through the cracks.

"So versatile! Makes being organized easy!"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

This tool has made it so easy to get organized. It is very easy to learn and use. I have been able to customize all of my workflows to correspond with how the work is actually happening. I also keep a personal "To-Do" workflow that I customize and just have fun with. Having everything I need in one place has eased my stress level considerably.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

The only option I think is missing from MeisterTask is the ability to shrink a Kanban board to fit the screen. Having to scroll across to see all of the columns can make things more challenging.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I have become much more organized. I can respond more quickly when there are questions related to a project and I can show others how the project is progressing. The visual aspect of MeisterTask makes it easier to communicate with others who are affiliated with a project. It is also so easy to assign work to others as well as to know when work is completed or a task is needed from me. I especially love that every step is tracked and time stamped. Overall, I am able to complete project more efficiently and with significantly less stress.

"Immeasurably valuable for productivity"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

The ease of use, the GUI and the functionality it provides. The app provides so much functionality that is unavailable on comparable software also I've found that the free version is incredibly generous with the functionality provided. I love how you can customise the columns, it feels like a nice place to work out of.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

Some times it can be a little slow when you're dealing with a board with thousands of cards. Other than that it's incredibly user friendly and helpful as a productivity tool, there are so few negatives.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

We're able to keep track of prospects for our business in a super detailed and organised fashion, it has solved a huge problem of keeping track of our business and sales process. We use the cards to track each prospect and use the columns Kanban style to move them through each stage of our sales process. We're also able to add due dates on to each one, write important notes and add checklists for each prospect also. Incredibly useful for managing prospects and tracking your sales funnels.

"This has kept me sane and organized"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

Being able to assign tasks to individuals in my house hold and separate by progress and due date has made all the difference in the world. Being able to drag and drop tasks is great

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I would like to run administrator reports to see projects due under each individual but on the same page

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use a lot of software, trellis, process st and Asana but task MeisterTask is amazing. And visually the easiest.

"My perfect partner for project management"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

A like it's simplicity and availability on any platform. I run a lot of projects simultaneously and Meistertask makes it realy simple to have an overview on all of them. Inside each projects I set a lot of tasks and use Kanban to see the progress of each task, I track time for each task and I use time tracking for reports to my customers.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

There si not much to dislike. Maybe the pricing for the Timeline (new Gannt chart like) feature. It looks awesome but I am not sure it is worth 12.5 € more per month. I am considering to upgrade to see if this is something that really helps to have a clear and better overview on our projects.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it mostly for Project management. I am co-owner of digital marketing agency. As a web developer I use it for projects, tasks and due dates. A also like to use time tracking for myself. In the future we plan to use it for task assignment with all my colleagues. For a project like building a online store I use tasks and Kanban and track all of the tasks to see if I am in the timeframe as planned. Inside tasks I use checklists to have all tasks structured as good as possible.

"Excellent Task Management for small teams"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

The simple, esay-to-navigate UI and ease-of-use of the app is a huge plus. The native desktop versions mean I don't always need a web browser open and it's super-quick to learn and start boosting productivity. Drag and drop to new columns is great and being able to set due dates and assign tasks is invaluable. Colour palette is kept to a minimum making navigating and working with tasks a more pleasant experience. There is little clutter in the app; nice icon set and the app design is consistent throughout. Being able to keep comments within the app is good, it means that email threads are cut down to a minimum and all communication can be kept in one place. Instant notifications are great as you can know straight away of a change to a task or if a task has been assigned to you. Being able to tap your avatar and only your tasks appear on the Kanban board is a nice touch, again getting rid of the clutter and helping you focus.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

That timeline isn't available on the free version. Would be nice to have even a stripped-down version of this!

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

As a designer, Meistertask helps massively. Clients can post requests into a project, I get notified and get started all with a few clicks/taps. This means a smoother workflow, higher productivity and quicker turnaround for clients.
