Todoist Erfahrungen

Vorteile

Gut gefallen hat die Zuordnung zu Projekten.

Nachteile

Die App hat nicht automatisch mit den Servern synchronisiert, allerdings keine Fehlermeldung abgegeben. Das hat nun dazu geführt, dass mein todoist Monate zurückgefallen ist und alle neu eingetragenen Aufgaben verschwunden sind. Laut Kundenservice gibt es keine Garantie, dass das in der kostenlosen Version nicht wiederpassiert. Damit schaffe ich die App ab.

Vorteile

Das einfache Design erlaubt das Fokussieren auf das Wesentliche

Nachteile

Kaum statistische Erfassung der Fortschritte

Vorteile

Die Aufgabe in Unteraufgaben teilen hat mir am besten gefallen.

Nachteile

Ich habe bisher nichts negatives festgestellt.

Vorteile

Man kann alle Aufgaben eintragen und sie werden Synchronisiert.

Nachteile

Die Software hat ein relativ teures Premium Abo.

Vorteile

Unterteilen in Projekte ist gut. Synchronisation zwischen Web und Mobile ist super. Sich wiederholende Aufgaben ist gut. Die Projektivitätsstreakanzeige motiviert.

Nachteile

Einige Funktionen harmonieren nicht so gut miteinander (Projekte und Filter&Label). Die "Aufgabe hinzufügen" buttons überall sehen hässlich aus und man muss immer manuell auf Abbrechen gehen, um woanders eine Aufgabe hinzuzufügen. Das umsortieren ist ein wenig clunky, weil man Aufgaben auch als Unteraufgabe einsortieren kann (aber eigentlich nie will). Man kann keine Aufgaben snoozen.

Vorteile

Ich habe mir viele Tools angeschaut, Todoist ist für mich das beste Tool um Aufgaben zu verwalten. Insbesondere schätze ich die Verbindung mit meinem Google Kalender und die sehr aufgeräumte Oberfläche.

Nachteile

Für mich ist Todoist perfekt, mir fehlt keine Funktion.

Vorteile

Man kann super die Aufgaben anlegen und sich auch benachrichtigen lassen.

Nachteile

Die kostenlose Version ist meiner Meinung nach zu sehr eingeschränkt, da ich viele Projekte auf einmal habe und man nur begrenzt Projekte erstellen kann. Ausschlaggebender Punkt wieso ich aufgehört habe Todoist zu nutzen.

Vorteile

Ich benutze das Tool um alle Aufgaben übersichtlich dargestellt zu bekommen und die Deadlines im Blick zu haben. Dies funktioniert einwandfrei

Nachteile

Das gemeinsame Verwaltung von Aufgaben ist zu aufwendig gestaltet

Vorteile

Todoist enthält viele Möglichkeiten aber leider ist es für unsere Hauptzweck die Verfolgung von gemeinsamen Projekten nicht so gut wie erhofft.

Nachteile

Nicht intuitiv bedienbar und recht starr in seinen Vorlagen

Vorteile

Todoist has simplified my work life - helping to organize all my tasks, projects, and meetings in a simple way that ensures no project is missed. While there is a bit of a learning curve to figure out how to best utilize & organize the platform, the simplicity of it's core features makes it easy for anyone to pick up and use. You are able to hop on their website or app and add a task in an instant; with the ability to schedule the due date, priority, and set it up in a specific project very quickly using their shortcuts. With their team collaboration features, you are also able to assign specific tasks to specific people, allowing for quick and ease collaboration and project management. Plus, Todoist offers numerous templates that help facilitate setup, and a very simple "Karma" rewards system that helps encourage use (and helps make you feel accomplished).

Nachteile

Todoist offers numerous systems, but unfortunately it can be a bit of a learning curve to learn all the shortcuts (especially when they change periodically) and an effective way to organize the projects & tags. As well, while they offer simple ways to import their templates and allow you to export templates of your own, they don't offer a simple cloud storage solution for those templates - so to load an exported template, you need to download it, keep it, and reupload it when needed. Lastly, they lack the ability to setup certain types of tasks; such as a task with subtasks that all repeat weekly - currently you can schedule them all to happen each week, but the subtasks end up getting listed as full tasks on the due date.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Todoist

Todoists simplicity & features set it apart above the rest

Vorteile

The best thing that i really like is it can be access from various device and no need to install the software into the device. I use it as my organizer to schedule, remind and organized all my daily task and to-do list, either for my work task or for my personal task. It is not packed with feature like other project management software, but still can get the work done.

Nachteile

It lacked of feature that i need and sometimes it is quite frustrating and i have to using other software to get it done. Other than that, It is very helpful in reminding and scheduling my day and not too expensive to subscribing its premium plan.

Vorteile

Todoist has a clean and intuitive interface that makes it simple for users to create tasks, prioritize them, and track their progress. This means that we can start using Todoist without any prior training or technical knowledge, making it accessible to everyone. Secondly, Todoist allows users to organize their tasks into projects and sub-projects, which makes it easy to manage large and complex tasks lists. This helps users to focus on the most important tasks, prioritize their workload, and avoid feeling overwhelmed by a long list of tasks.Another great aspect of Todoist is its collaboration features. Users can share projects with team members, assign tasks to each other, and add comments and attachments to tasks. This makes it easy for teams to work together on projects, delegate tasks, and stay updated on progress. Todoist also integrates with a wide range of other tools, including Google Drive, Slack, Zapier, and many others. This makes it easy to integrate Todoist into an existing workflow, and to automate certain tasks, such as creating tasks from emails or adding tasks to a project automatically when a deadline is approaching.

Nachteile

One of the limitations of Todoist is its lack of advanced project management features. Todoist is primarily designed as a task management tool, and while it has some basic collaboration features, it is not a full-fledged project management tool. For example, Todoist does not have a Gantt chart or a resource allocation system, which can make it difficult for teams to manage large and complex projects. In addition, Todoist does not have a built-in time tracking system, which can be a problem for teams who need to track their time and bill clients for their work.

Vorteile

I like Todoist because it allows me to work and organize my day to day, with this software I can have control of my things, giving me the opportunity to do my tasks and projects that have more priority for me at work, with Todoist I can make my tasks larger in small tasks with the option of subtasks likewise I can do the same with the projects, in this way I can make my work less complex to elaborate, in addition to that I can set a due date to deliver a project so I do not delay in a task or project.

Nachteile

Todoist has its flaws; for example, I don't like how I frequently get notifications about repeating tasks; this isn't a constant problem, but it is annoying because it disrupts my flow of work.The Windows app and the mobile app both suffer from the same bug, making synchronization difficult and time-consuming.The paid version doesn't seem to offer much more than the free one does, as the only differences I can see are minor tweaks like the addition of Reminders and roles.

Vorteile

Todoist is a fantastic task management tool that helps me to stay on top of my various tasks and projects. The intuitive UI is easy to use and the cross-platform compatibility gives me the freedom to access my tasks from anywhere.

Nachteile

The biggest downside to Todoist is that it lacks some advanced features that I need for more complex projects. Additionally, the free plan has a rather limited feature set and may not be enough for some users.

Vorteile

Todoist is a great task management tool that I really enjoy using. I like that it allows me to easily organize and prioritize tasks and projects, so that I can focus on the most important tasks first. It also has a great user interface that makes it easy to add tasks, set due dates, and assign tasks to other people. I also appreciate that it can integrate with other tools like Google Calendar, and Slack, so that I can stay on top of my tasks no matter where I am.

Nachteile

The pricing can be a bit high for some of the features and the free version has quite a few limitations that can make it hard to use for more complex tasks

Vorteile

Todoist is a fantastic tool for staying organized and productive due to its user-friendly interface and a wide range of useful features. The app allows me to effortlessly create tasks, assign due dates, and even delegate tasks to others. I also appreciate the convenience of being able to view my tasks in a calendar format, along with the ability to attach notes and files, and assign priority levels and labels. Additionally, the app enables me to sync my tasks across all my devices, share tasks with colleagues, and move tasks between different projects. Finally, the app offers a range of customization options including themes and colors, making it a truly personalized experience.

Nachteile

The lack of options for adding tasks, like specific due dates and recurring tasks, can be limiting and inconvenient.

Vorteile

The best for me is how easy is to learn all the functions, as Todoist guides you through them. Also, the great amount of projects that I can run in paralel amazes me. Other people usualy are impressed of how I keep track of everything and never forget nothing.

Nachteile

It is very economic, but I have seen other simpler projects cheaper or free.

Vorteile

Everything you would need to get done with the free mode is awesome, labels, priority.. to be honest that’s all what you need and the best part its freeee…

Nachteile

To be honest there are no cons for me, as I said everything you need to do on a daily basis u can do it with the demo it’s super packed

Vorteile

🔸It gives you many choices🔸A very important feature is setting priorities🔸The design is great🔸I love android widget

Nachteile

You have 5 projects for free plan, whereas you need to pay to have more

Vorteile

Todoist has keyboard shortcuts down. That makes it easy and fast to navigate once you are familiar with it. Quick entry is easy and fast. The app gives you lots of ways to slice and dice your todo list, such as favorites, different priority levels and lables. Different views, such as a Kanban type of board can help organize and manage your task list. One thing that makes Todoist especially easy to use is that you can add tasks by email, you can add attachements (the word doc you need to read is right there).

Nachteile

I am not a fan of subscription services. The free version is great to test the service but too limited to use as daily driver. If you are ok with paying a monthly fee, then the 4$/month (3$ if you pay for the whole year upfront) is a reasonable ask. This and the sheer number of functions steered me towards an alternative as I was looking for something simpler. In my experience, more features just meant more distractions from actually checking off items on my task list.

OmniFocus und Things

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Todoist

In the end I chose an alternative to Todoist, as I am no fan of subscription services and rather pay once for a product, knowing I can use it as long as it still works with the OS I am using. But had it not been for that Todoist would have beat out Things by Cultured Code. The reason being that there are some more functionalities and the ease of use with keyboard on a computer is the best I know of.

Vorteile

I've tried dozens of systems for my day-to-day tasks, and finally landed on Todoist a couple years ago. The natural language processing for entering in tasks makes it easy to type something in using the iOS app and pick up where I left off later on my Mac. Typing in a date automatically adds the date information, which means I can just type "add photo to new blog post tomorrow" and have the task on tomorrow's list without having to fiddle in menus.

As they say, it just works.

Nachteile

Things that "just work" tend to have their little nuances that mean sometimes it doesn't just work. Todoist is constantly pushing out updates behind the scenes through their server back-end, which means you're always on the latest version of the software even if you don't update the client software. Sometimes that means they move too fast and break things. There have been multiple occasions where the software suddenly doesn't work as expected and I have to wait a couple hours for them to push out a fix. Perhaps their testing procedures will meet enterprise expectations eventually, but this is normal for cloud services these days...

Vorteile

While I was using this software, I really liked the sleek and modern interface to add new tasks. It was quick, easy, and the UI was awesome. I wish all task management apps had an UI like Todoist. The tagging feature was also super quick to add, which saves me time adding tasks.

The feature to reschedule tasks I didn't do based on the load for my week was good, not as good as Skedpal (which is why I switched) but better than I've seen in other task managemetn apps I've tried and used.

I also really liked the minimalism of the screen, I never felt that it was too clunky or too many options being displayed at once and overwhelming me.

Nachteile

The reason I switched is because I had so many tasks added in I became overwhelmed. This isn't necessarily the apps fault, I should add time in my calendar to do a weekly review, etc... but it just wasn't happening. I switched to SkedPal because it schedules the tasks for me on my calendar, ensuring I get them done. With ToDoist, if something didn't get done, I would have an overdue task, and then need to schedule it into my calendar myself and spend time figuring out what time slot, etc..., then go back to Todoist if the time didn't work out, etc... it wasn't flexible enough to auto schedule and place it on my calendar with the option to roll over to the next day if not completed. (At least at the time that I used it). If it's not on my calendar, it doesn't get done because other things will fill my calendar and then I'm out of time and my Todoist tasks are not completed.

Vorteile

Todoist is very easy to use. I like that I can create a task and add as many notes to it as I need. When I don't have the time or brain power to finish a project at the end of the day, I create a task in Todoist so I can pick up where I left off the next day. It's easy to move the due date on any task if anything changes. The most significant way I use Todoist is to fill in the gaps on any work processes that are not fully automated. I set tasks out in the future all the time to make sure the final step is compete. Without Todoist I would be at a loss!

Nachteile

The only thing I don't like about Todoist is it doesn't always log my completed tasks immediately. When I mark a task as completed, it should disappear from my list right away, but sometimes it doesn't update until I have refreshed the page. I'm guessing this is an issue that will be solved by the Todoist team soon.

Vorteile

The Projects Feature is the absolute best part of Todoist! I was working between a few different programs (Outlook, Google Tasks, Google Notes, Smartsheet and Evernote), and needed one central place to keep notes and to-do lists for my personal and professional life. The collaboration tools allow me and my coworkers to share notes and to-do lists on joint projects, and me and and my husband to share home renovation punch lists and store to-buy lists, all in one central place. My life feels so much more streamlined since making the switch!

Nachteile

Since I've worked with so many different programs, I do miss certain functionalities of other programs: the Gantt-style like Smartsheet offers, the ability to sync with my email as seamlessly as Google and Outlook, and task contingency so that not all "to-dos" are shown at once, but overall I landed on Todoist due to it's simple interface and introducing any of the those features would take away from that.

The one thing I would change for new users is that it's simple, but not intuitive to schedule recurring tasks. I had to Google the answer, and while it's easy (simple typing "every Monday" after the task does the trick) it seems like putting an icon would have been a no-brainer.

Vorteile

Todoist has really improve my effectiveness in managing my to-do-list and recurring daily task in my schedule. Its board and card layout is easy to drag around and i really like this style of task management because it is easy to see my overall task.

Nachteile

There are not much feature and tools that i can use to build a more complex or project with detailed resource. Todoist will constantly sending me a notification for unfinished task and sometimes it is a distraction that i don't need.
