"Excellent Product"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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

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

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

"Finally a task management system that makes sense"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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.

"Really good alternative for Trello"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

- 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)

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

- 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

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

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

"The Sexier Sister of Trello"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

The look and feel of this software is outstanding!

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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.

"Excellent Task Manager For Projects"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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.

"Excellent and free!"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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!

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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!

"Amazing app, changed our team working habits"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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 :-)

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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

"Best planner and work streamliner"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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

"Task Management"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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.

"Project deployment and assignment made simple"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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.

"Clean, simple and intuitive project management solution"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

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.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

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.

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

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.

"MeisterTask"
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

It allows for you to manage, assign activities and monitor the improvement of the work environment of yours. It's helpful capabilities like folders, subgroups and tasks, along with a small staff at the office is actually certain to find the summary of wonders helpful, combines all of your issues well and describes anything obviously, it is an excellent set of small notes and sticky notes and diaries. The capacity to synchronize emails and jobs is actually great, particularly if nearly all of your projects comes from email.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I do not that way you cannot alter the application format. It is a little issue, though it will be good in case you might resolve it.

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

I believe the list of wonders makes me much more successful and also enables me to follow what must be completed.

"Great tool very intuitive."
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

Meistertask emphasizes me a lot since it contains a short learning curve, to learn to manipulate the software in an appropriate way, being quite simple and easy when implementing the system on any platform, as it is very versatile, in the same way I love it because it is extremely feasible when it is required to manage several projects at the same time, thus saving time in the work process, this tool helps a lot in performance, guaranteeing a better flow in different ways.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

It contains several intermittent aspects, which can be annoying when carrying out the work process, after loading a file in a task it cannot be downloaded immediately, congesting delays, especially when it comes to business level, this happens since Meistertask it is not fully optimized, as it has to process the order very slowly within the cloud storage with little capacity it has, highlighting that an update for a mobile application integration makes day-to-day development immensely easier.

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

Meistertask was implemented in the platform of our organization to support project management and team collaboration, all our staff use it, since it covers our needs with most of its multifunctional tools that it gets designed in its programming, offering us Likewise, a fantastic productivity, since on the other hand of its use in the company, it allows us to write several tasks that we need to do, in order to assign them correctly to the powerful and most loyal clients of the system.

"O Maistertask combina os campos de trabalho como o principal gerenciador de tarefas."
What do you like best about MeisterTask?

É impressionante, pois é uma das ferramentas de gerenciamento de tarefas mais intuitivas da Web, sendo um dos softwares mais usados ​​por diferentes empresas. Adoro o Meistertask devido aos painéis de projeto flexíveis que o tornam adaptável De uma maneira eficaz para o fluxo de trabalho da equipe, é muito fácil gerenciar vários projetos ao mesmo tempo, o que faz com que o processo de fluxo de trabalho economize mais tempo devido à velocidade do seu sistema operacional ao executar sua função projetada.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

Possui preços diferentes devido às várias versões do software, cada uma obtendo características funcionais diferentes, tornando-o mais caro que o outro, dependendo das atualizações mais avançadas que cada um adquire, neste caso, algumas definições detalhadas de tarefas eles podem ser difíceis de implementar na plataforma; em outras particularidades, é peculiar, pois não possui um gerenciamento de tarefas pendente para executar, o que requer uma atualização para integrar ferramentas mais intuitivas.

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

É realmente usado na minha empresa por suas virtudes digitais que este software contém, mencionando as ferramentas que nos ajudam a obter um desenvolvedor melhor em termos de gerenciamento de tarefas forçadas, o que nos ajuda a gerenciar projetos e atribuições em toda a organização, destacando sua capacidade de criar implementações inovadoras e compartilhá-las e, em seguida, executá-las, trazendo benefícios econômicos, tudo devido ao Meistertask que melhorou nossa organização devido à sua variedade de funcionalidades.
