"Simply put, Nifty is a fast and required software for everyone working on management"
What do you like best about Nifty?

It's easy to use and the UI is not messy, which helps me deliver my projects on time as I work on them in the app. I like that I can get feedback from all the team members and missing deadlines isreare while using this software, as it keeps everyone notified on time.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

The only thing I dislike is that sometimes I encounter some bugs but thankfully customer support has been responsive and has fixed them.

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

Some problems we are solving with Nifty are: -We are able to keep us focused and boosting productivity is something that everyone does because of the time tracking tool in the software. -Collaborating and integrating different apps into our work such as Google Sheets/Docs, with the integration features being wonderful and allowing us to do the job. -I can't stress enough how much I love the Zoom integration and how important it is for other softwares to have it, so Nifty allowing us to do calls via Zoom has been so beneficial .

"Helps you get tasks under control"
What do you like best about Nifty?

Nifty is an amazing alternative to other project and task management tools you've seen around. Prioritizing insights and customizing the way you view things that happen as you work is a huge advantage of this platform. It gives you everything you need to stay productive and monitor the progress the way you like it.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

I've been happy with everything that Nifty showed me - there's nothing to complain about and I could definitel work with it further.

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

Reporting for projects were the biggest issue. Project Home customization turned out to be a solid solution.

"Couldn't Image Project Management without Nifty"
What do you like best about Nifty?

1. Chat Feature 2. Time Tracking 3. Excellent Support (Which isn't found in big PM apps) 4. Google Sheets, docs integration. 4. Can view uploaded docs, sheets directly without downloading (Something which I have never seen on any other app) 5. It's a must have tool for remote team. We stopped using any other messaging apps to coordinate quickly. This tool is something which can crush all the competition if it reaches the right audience.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

1. Not able to sort Portfolios. 2. Mobile App still needs improvements which I'm confident the Nifty team is working on.

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

1. Working with remote team. 2. Keep track of time (No need of using another tool) 3. Superb track with notifications which are customizable to next level. 4. Much better project tracking with Milestones, Time tracking, project docs, chat feature & project discussion.

"Among the Best & Simplest Complete Project Management Tool - Nifty."
What do you like best about Nifty?

The Modern Interface is intuitive and "nifty" in getting to the granular aspects of your project and task management needs. The fast rollout on updates adds significant value to administration and communications without disrupting the work flows. The software keeps taking strides in improving the simplest to more complex project management needs with it's interoperability with its kanban, communication and reporting interoperability.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

Wish I had more graded privileges for admin user profiles along with additional seats (but I think that can/may be resolved with upgrades!) (:D).

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

- Task Management and Reporting / Communications; - Possible Client side insite to project progress and direct client task assignments; - Overall Project Management & Administrative needs.

"Amazing app and great usability. No brainer if you want to manage your team"
What do you like best about Nifty?

Easy to use, affordable and it has a lot of features. The most I love is: gant chart, communication chat, milestones integrated, and it is easy to change the view to kanban and list.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

The mobile app is not perfect, and should be improved. Also, it becomes hard to use in some cases, especially when you have a lot of areas and projects, which is my case.

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

Manage your team hours is so easy with Nifty. Also, you can communicate with then across the app. A lot of views such as gantt, list, kanban. A lot of ready to use templates for sales, marketing, project management.

"Best project management software for operation teams!"
What do you like best about Nifty?

I love the fact that Nifty is a truly cross-departmental software and enables the operations, legal and hr to all communicate and collaborate efficiently in one software we constantly assign tasks across departments and Nifty is much better for this than Asana and ClickUP. We have been hunting for tools that are super easy to use and cater to legacy employees and I can see that I have finally found it with Nifty!

What do you dislike about Nifty?

Nothing worth taking note of any issue I had was addressed and fixed by support in under an hour.

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

Nifty helped us collaborate more efficiently, manage tasks across the organization and the feature that I love the most is there tagging system that enables one to tag a document and have it reflect and attach to tasks this is super helpful for legal workflows.

"Finally found a software that does it all!"
What do you like best about Nifty?

My favorite feature on Nifty is the home screen it enables you to have access to all essential features - milestones, tasks, docs and files once I log in similar to my iphone home screen in a workflow tool.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

I have not had any issues so far and do not intent to nit pick to try and find problems with something that is working well for my company.

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

We had a lot of work that was falling in the cracks and not getting tracked properly, tasks let us really document everything we have going on internally along with custom fields to delve deeper and create reports.

"Great project and task management for creative agencies"
What do you like best about Nifty?

- Inviting clients to specific projects (especially useful for web bug and feature tracking) - Workloads area allows you to review overdue tasks (reallocate, schedule and manage as appropriate) - Chat & Doc features allow us to contain relevant client-facing information in one place - Ability to create multiple task lists within projects creates flexibility for different workflows depending on project - Continued product development of Nifty including regular release announcements encourages confidence in the product

What do you dislike about Nifty?

- Time tracking is a bit redundant for our use. The ability to manually add tracked time (e.g start, end dates and description) would help this feature. Equally - like that it remains in the background as it's not particularly necessary for us at this stage.

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

- Track client requests and allocate them to staff - Direct collaboration with clients on website projects (bug and feature requests)

"If you want to be in full control, this is your tool for project management!"
What do you like best about Nifty?

The ease to follow up with the team and tasks is possibly what we love the most. But we also have to highlight that you have multiple choice to view your project: As kanban tiles or list of tasks. Also you can setup milestones that are tied with other milestones and with their respective tasks. Notifications to your email and inside the platform give you full control of everything that is happening inside your company. And if you use google drive (GSuite) for documents, you will love the integration that Nifty has to see and edit the documents inside the platform!

What do you dislike about Nifty?

I haven't found anything to dislike, but I'd love to see email marketing in a roadmap so we can track and contact leads and convert them into new running projects for the company. Would that be asking too much?

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

We had a real problem following up with the tasks that had been done and the tasks that needed to be done. We used a range of apps including excel (man that sucked), Asana, Trello, MeisterTask, Wrike, and a great etc. They just didn't match with the way we worked and the number of users we had (we are a small company with lots of tasks, so the other solutions are too pricey or simply did not solve our problems). We have reduced our delivery times in more than 20% and we are currently delivering every task on time, early or just with a few hours of delay, versus what happened before where we just did not manage to get things done on time.

"The most beautiful management tool"
What do you like best about Nifty?

Aesthetics! Ease of navigation, intuitiveness, continuous product development. I believe Nifty would catch the ClickUp level someday for sure. The constant development of the tool is certainly a big plus. I get an e-mail about some new functionality practically every week. Nifty is a great tool for a freelancer or a small team. Privately, nifty is my basic tool for cooperation with clients and so far it works great.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

There are no options typical for CRM - budget management, cost estimation, billing hours, and so on. Surely, a little more integration could be needed as well. It's not bad, but it could be better. Another thing is the application - it is because it is, but somehow it is not useful for anything, or it is simply not very intuitive. Nifty also has some problems with notifications, because they either pop up double in the browser window and on the desktop, or they don't pop up at all (or I set something wrong myself, I don't know).

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

I took the management with small clients to a new level, and the aesthetics of the tool only helps in this, causing them very good results and impression.

"The next big thing"
What do you like best about Nifty?

The best thing about Nifty is the active team behind it. You get amazing news almost every week, not just a few bug and performance fixes but real updates that help streamline your workflow. The user interface is extremely easy to use and understand. You can create a new project and get started within seconds resulting in a much more agile workflow where it is possible to work with as many or as few projects as you like. Because of the intuitive templates, you can easily divide huge projects into more focused ones and keep your workspaces clean when still maintaining a great overall overview. Many other tools require a lot of setups resulting in projects that grow and last forever because setting up a new one is just too much hassle. Nifty solves that problem in a fantastic way.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

The feature set is still a little bit limited compared to some systems that have been around longer. A few sync features and more fine-tuned settings are yet to come but the team delivers excellent improvements every week. Still, I think Nifty will be the very best, maybe not today but definitely within a few months. Let's put it this way when betting on horses would you rather bet on an exhausted frontrunner or the energic horse slightly behind? Monday and Asana are ahead in some areas, no doubt about that - but Nifty seems to be releasing great new innovations regularly. So nothing bad really, but you have to expect some changes to the workflow in the coming months.

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

I am getting more productive because we can achieve better communication within our team. Nifty provides a clear separation between projects when also providing stats across them. It is much less overwhelming and so much easier to focus on what truly matters - the task ahead of you.

"A very useful tool to help us keep track of all our projects and tasks."
What do you like best about Nifty?

Project Management Features with its Project Structure capabilities

What do you dislike about Nifty?

Not much - it's super useful and is saving us time.

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

It gives us one place where we can create communication between our three team members. Instead of having to use emails which get lost. We can now track all the tasks we have to do. Nifty is streamlining our work flow and tasks are not getting lost like they used to.

"Great for my remote team"
What do you like best about Nifty?

I Nifty for keeping our projects organized and on track. It's easy to create new projects, tasks, milestones, and make updates as projects move along. As a company that does a lot of custom projects, it's easy to work from a template and adjust as needed. I also really appreciate the transparency in their development priorities and the obvious dedication to making consistent improvements to the platform. It has been worth every penny.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

I wish the workflow and calendar views were more visually intuitive - I'd love to be able to color code or tag items in a calendar since our projects all have tasks that are repeated, and it's not easy at all to look and see what specifically someone is working on or what task is due for what day in the calendar.

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

Nifty is helping keep everyone on my team on the same page, especially those that don't touch the project every day - it helps keep them in tune to what is going on and when they will be needed to come in. I have also realized that I'm just less mentally taxed trying to remember everything that needs to be done for each project, it's all right there and easy to see what I need to get done every day. Nifty has replaced my various to-do lists, evernote sheets, and post-its.

"Nifty is now an essential part of my business"
What do you like best about Nifty?

Organization. Having tasks order by date and priority helps my team know what's going on. The schedules change on a daily basis. It's an invaluable tool. You think as a business owner you know how to organize efficiently, but when Nifty came on the scene, you realize that's not the case.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

Unless I'm mistaken, I would love to receive notifications with tasks I'm working with, without having the need to tag people. Tagging is simple, yet if you need to use it for every message to "get the message across" so to speak, it's a 2 seconds "wasted". Nitpicky I know!

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

I receive over 200 emails a day, a good percentage require placing into a uniformed task with start dates, end dates, screenshots and more. Nifty handles all of that with ease. Nifty helps us not forget about tasks and keep on track. It's perhaps the easiest and cleanest and well as stylish platform out there.

"One of my most important tools for keeping organized"
What do you like best about Nifty?

I really like using Nifty. It's powerful but it's also fun to use. There's something about the layout and how easy it is for me to keep my work in order that is incredibly satisfying. The support team is great too. Fast, friendly, helped me learn how to use the platform effectively. I've used other tools like Asana and Trello in the past but Nifty is my preferred and I've moved all my PM work over to them.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

Nothing really. It integrates very well with Google Docs, easy to keep organized, lots of features. I don't have anything bad to say.

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

Keeping organized!! Especially when it comes to keeping my docs in one place. For example, I use multiple Google Docs for each client to track onboarding, web pages to be developed, etc. I can easily link those docs into Nifty within my projects. Then I don't have to figure out where in Google Drive my files are, pull up those screens and all the juggling act. Everything I need is within one platform.

"Nifty is nifty!"

"Simple yet robust. The UI and features are well considered."
What do you like best about Nifty?

Every time I try another feature, it seems to work exactly like I want/expect it to. I'm able to track my time in a simple and intuitive way that let's me look back and learn from past projects. I like that I can put all the info for a client in one place; files, images, agreement contract, internal wiki (docs) and the milestone view is the best gant-like UI I've seen.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

I wish there was a feedback button right in the main UI so I could suggest tiny UI improvements. Would like to see some more drag and drop functionality in the various views. Scroll bars should expand 2x-3x on mouseover depending on screen size.

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

I'm able to track time on multiple tasks on multiple projects for multiple clients and get clear visualizations of what's next across the projects or within just one. It's suddenly so much easier to just answer the question "what's next?"

"I've tried them all...this is the one!"
What do you like best about Nifty?

Being able to communicate on the same project platform in a chat format is indispensable. Not only can I chat in context within projects and tasks but I can WhatsApp style message remote individuals and teams as needed without having to resort to a different communication platform.

What do you dislike about Nifty?

Haven't currently found anything I dislike, it's quite literally got everything I need.

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

Managing remote VA's and what they are doing has become so much easier. Also being able to keep a track of progress so easily with milestones! I've always found it difficult to track project progress easily in many other platforms as it makes it too complex for what I need. Nifty wins hands down with it's powerful simplicity.

"Best PM software i've found!!"
What do you like best about Nifty?

NiftyPM is very easy to use, even if you're not familiar with Project Management software. It's interface is very intuitive and a pleasure to use

What do you dislike about Nifty?

I've not yet found anything to dislike about the software - There are a few features that I would like to see added though such as CName integration for white labelling.

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

I've used various PM tools before and none of them had every feature i needed so often had to use 2 tools such as Trello and Asana to manage everything. NiftyPM is the only solution I've found that has everything I need
