"very intuitive and feature-rich task manager"
What do you like best about Todoist?

I love how you can quickly create a task with many properties just by writing a single phrase like "follow up with Mark tomorrow @30min p1 +Paul". I also like how you can create group tasks just by dragging it to the right. Overall it's very intuitive and guides user along the way.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

Sometimes organization can be a bit confusing, especially when hundreds of tasks are created. This could be more of a problem of process than Todoist's fault.

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

We use Todoist in the Product Management team to keep track and collaborate on our individual tasks. It helps us keep ourselves and team-members accountable and moving the right direction.

"Useful for organizing continuous items"
What do you like best about Todoist?

For items that appear regularly in my schedule, it helps keep it organized and gives the satisfaction of checking off each item every day. It also offers reminders for items which were incomplete the day before.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

It requires manually inputting items instead of synchronizing with apps already in place.

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

It has increased efficiency and decreased the amount of incomplete items on the docket each day.

"Great organization for everyday tasks"
What do you like best about Todoist?

Todoist makes it easy to sort my tasks into different categories and the fact that you can link your Wunderlist tasks to here makes the transition smooth and easy.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

You have to get premium to be reminded automatically of due dates and tasks and you have to manually backup your tasks in case something happens, unless you pay for Premium.

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

I have been able to stay organized with Todoist and have not missed any due dates so far. I can also plan farther into the future for things due in the long run, which is nice in case I forget things that don't need to be completed yet.

What do you like best about Todoist?

Todoist es uno de los servicios de tareas más completos y que ofrecen compatibilidad con más plataformas, el uso de las extensiones da un nuevo impulso a nuestra productividad al permitirnos consultar las tareas o añadir nuevas desde el centro de notificaciones. Además están trabajando en mejoras importantes como la integración con IFTTT. el plan de pago de Todoist no es demasiado caro.

Todoist es una gran herramienta para la gestión de tareas. Después de darle la oportunidad y estar probándolo durante días no sólo es una aplicación muy buena sino que nada tiene que envidiar a alternativas más populares. Además, la sincronización es prácticamente perfecta.

Sometimes going back into the app to check things off is less convenient than a normal paper list and interrupts my work flow.

"Great for Mac Users"
What do you like best about Todoist?

Todoist is a great tool to use to stay on top of your own personal workload. I'd normally be a post it user but this is much less wasteful and easier to manager. For me I always have to open it in my browser to be able to see what my tasks are but if you can get the extension to download this is a much better alternative.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

Todoist isn't great for PC users. On a Mac you can easily download the tool and it pop ups as it's own software. This should probably be possible for a PC but the download has never worked for me. Instead I need to keep a tab open in my browser at all times to be able to use it.

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

Todoist is great for tasks that don't require an assignment in your operating system. I use it a lot for person to do's, such as follow up with a client or creating meeting invites. I also like that you can create tasks for other people or not. There are options on share-ability. Personally I used it to only help organize my own time.

"Great app for basic to-do list needs! "
What do you like best about Todoist?

As with many mobile to-do list apps, there are very few features that set them apart. Todoist

What do you dislike about Todoist?

The free version lacks a lot of features that would make this app more versatile.

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

Because I work on various projects, the ability to draft numerous lists and have sub-headers while receiving comprehensive updates is extremely helpful for my overall workflow.

"Easy to use product and increase productivity!"
What do you like best about Todoist?

I love how easy it is to separate personal to-do's from professional ones. ToDoist makes it easy to categorize my priorities and it's incredibly easy to set things up. I also really like that it reminds me when tasks are overdo.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

The email reminders when a task is not completed are great, but are slightly annoying. I'm not sure if I missed it, but it'd be awesome if there was a way to change the settings as to how frequent those emails are sent.

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

I can be a lot more organized with Todoist and the categories are life savers. Rather than having all tasks in one place, I can easily determine what's personal and professional. The email reminders for overdo tasks are good for people like me who have a million things going on at once.

Better than Google Keep IMO. Tasks are assigned to a day and dates are simple to adjust when needed. When daily activity goal is reached, you get notified - which is a motivator for me.

"Great to-do tool for personal items"
What do you like best about Todoist?

Todoist has a chrome extension, so you can easily access your tasks. The tool gives you an option to sort your tasks into different projects or into your general inbox. The tool gives you "karma" for completing tasks and it motivates you to move tasks forward.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

No place to put task details or notes within tasks. Comments are only for premium users. Additionally, tasks cannot be shared by others.

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

I'm using Todoist to track my own tasks for work, projects, and personal. It helps to be able to separate these out.

"Awkward but useful once you get the"
What do you like best about Todoist?

First of all, the best thing about this app is being able to separate tasks by project! This is so incredibly helpful to me as a Program Director. I always have many project going on at once and being able to look at the next steps by project is invaluable! I've not purchased the premium version, so I can't attest to the labels feature, although that seems like it would be helpful, but for $29, it isn't worth it for me to find out. I wish they had a trail for the premium version so you could test it out before committing to $29 bucks.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

I get what they are trying to do with the text shortcuts, and it is a really great idea and probably really useful for people who think in a way that revolves around hashtags and at symbols, my mind jus does't so, even though I want to use this feature, I never do.

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

I've used ToDoist, and will use ToDoist again when I have multiple big new project going on at the same time, otherwise the awkwardness is too great for me to use it every day.

I love the ease of use and the ability to move things from day to day and set recurring tasks.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

The UI is a bit simplistic; slightly more complicated scheduling of tasks would be helpful.

I use it for my management to-do list - keeping track of recurring and one-time tasks. It's the only way I can keep track of everything I need to do - it's so helpful!

"Why I Use Todoist"
What do you like best about Todoist?

I love this task management app! I use it for work and in my personal life! Very simple and the minimalist appearance is appealing. Very clear and easy to use. Love that I can use it on my phone and on my work computer.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

I dislike that tasks disappear about you finish them. Personally, I would prefer they get a strikethrough but still remain visible so I can keep tracking what I have finished.

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

In my job, I keep track of 110 high school students academics, extracurricular activities, and college applications. Todoist makes it very simple and easy to know what I need to do and when I need to do it.

"Gives a big help at all my task."
What do you like best about Todoist?

Wonderful that I can get access to tasks from everyplace. Also, I can work on joint tasks with more opportunity. Reach more by breaking important tasks into the smaller task. The nice way to get notified by e-mail or push notifications as large changes occur.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

During the all working process, I just had one issue with the adding it is was very slow. Now it works much better. I'm glad that I'm working on this solution.

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

Gives the ability to share projects, tasks and argue details on any electronic device or platform. We have the opportunity to use sync of information in real time. We can add as many details as we like using comments. It is wonderful to attach PDF files, spreadsheet and pictures.

"Great lightweight Task management"
What do you like best about Todoist?

It's a good task manager that is highly portable (even has a web interface) and has good connections to services that allow for task automation.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

It's not as powerful as something like Omnifocus and I'm not the biggest fan of the interface. In addition, the apple watch app in particular was running into some issues. Also, it doesn't have any understanding of contexts or other GTD-like features and getting more complicated than a single-context list can be difficult.

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

I primarily use it to sort a list of tasks or other items I want to keep track of on my apple watch on the fly.

"Simple, complete task management"
What do you like best about Todoist?

Todoist works on every platform: web, Android, iOS, Mac, Windows, everywhere. Complete set of functionalities even in the free version. Perfect solution to handle task management and to-dos. Full API set to integrate it with other softwares.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

Almost nothing. The only thing that I would change is improving the way priorities can be edited on a single task (now user must open the task, click on "edit", change priority and then save). Expecially on mobile, gesture-based priority editing system, such as the one to schedule tasks, would be better.

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

Todoist helps me organizing my daily task, both in business and personal life. Collaboration in shared lists is great (can be used as shopping list, wishlists shared with parents and family, and so on), and adding/completing task is fast and easy.

"Great pro version, limited free version."
What do you like best about Todoist?

The Design. It's simple, easy & clutter free.

What do you dislike about Todoist?

Less difference between the Pro and Free version.

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

I use Todoist with other PM tools. Todoist is where I split a task into smaller tasks so that I can lookup what I'm working on / next task easily without opening the other PM tool. Apart from work, I also it for personal tasks.
