I can sort of all pending and completed tasks

5.0 2 years ago

Comments: With MeisterTask, we can manage and work on several projects at the same time, even if we are in separate places. Using this software has the added advantage of being simple, affordable, and widely accessible, all thanks to its cross-platform interoperability.

Pros:

With MeisterTask, customers may take use of this project management solution in a matter of minutes thanks to its simple and intuitive design. Managing many projects and sub-tasks at the same time is also a breeze. Good for teams/collaboration and excellent mobile applications. Kanban task management method. Exactly one year ago, I was searching for an alternative to Trello.

Cons:

MeisterTask does not include a workflow calendar, which would provide for a more full picture of the productivity of a project.

Thanks so much for taking the time to write such an extensive review, Shayla! It's always great to hear from users who've benefited from our collaborative Kanban-tool. :D I've forwarded your suggestion regarding a workflow calendar to our project manager, who is always happy to collect and consider user feedback. In the meantime, you might want to try out direct integrations with Google Calendar and iCal. We'd also love to hear more about your experience with MeisterTask, including any improvements or suggestions you might have! Please don't hesitate to reach out to us on Twitter at @MeisterTask if you have any feedback. Thanks again, Your MeisterTask Team

The most productive task / project planner

5.0 9 months ago

Comments: I’ve been using MeisterTask for a number of years now and it is my go to piece of software for managing all of my projects in one location. I can keep track of things on my iPhone and iPad as well as on my desktop.

Pros:

My hands-down, favorite part of this entire app is all of the automation tools. It gives you to help streamline your process and illuminate repetitive tasks.

Cons:

A better way to manage all of my tasks from multiple projects on a single dashboard. The agenda option that they give us and the pinning are a good start, but I’d like a little more flexibility and automation built into the agenda dashboard.

Alternatives Considered: monday.com, ClickUp and Asana

Reasons for Choosing MeisterTask: Initially, it was to have a Kanban on board but now it’s to stay because of all the automation

Switched From: Things

Reasons for Switching to MeisterTask: Very powerful and easier to use

A great tool for a long time on the market.

5.0 2 months ago New

Comments: The appearance and style of the tool is great and UX is slicker than Trello, the tool i used prior. The kanban boards look great and easy to share.

Pros:

The design of the tool felt better and more grown up than Trello and was easier to use.

Cons:

The pricing changed a lot since I implemented it and it became too expensive.

Alternatives Considered: Trello, ClickUp and Asana

Reasons for Choosing MeisterTask: Design. Meistertask always felt more "ready" than trello.

Switched From: Trello

Reasons for Switching to MeisterTask: Pricing and design.

Reasons for Choosing MeisterTask: Better and nicer user interface

Switched From: Trello Gamification

Hi Federico, thanks very much for reaching out! We're glad that you found MeisterTask to be both intuitive and beautiful, but sorry sorry to hear you were disappointed in the free version's limitations. Unfortunately, it is expensive to maintain our apps and websites, so we do have to charge for certain features. Be sure to check out our affordable tiered subscription services at MeisterTask.com/pricing to learn more about an option that best suits your team's needs. Best, The Meister Team

MeisterTask: Wish it gets better

4.0 3 months ago

Comments: Project managementTask management

Pros:

Ease of use ..Fast Deployment Multi-platform support.

Cons:

- Timeline: Horrible!- Colors and UI theme: outdated.- Reporting is very limited !! Should be highly customization -> Benfecial for reviews and team meetings .. as for customer-facing meetings and status updates.- The mobile view could be better. How do you mark it a success? If a user can use the mobile version independently - with no desktop or web - then this is a success.- Consolidated project view: missing. The agenda view is useless.- Drag and drop tasks among projects- Multi-task selection is not smooth- Time reminders are not fluid or practical enough- Automation needs many and many improvements --> Need to link a header with dates. Then if a task is created in this kanban, it immediately inherits this date .. Mapping a kanban to a calendar day (Sunday, Monday, .. etc) is gonna be very useful. We need to talk to explain this to you guys ..

Alternatives Considered: Airtable and Asana

Reasons for Choosing MeisterTask: The project management concept is missing from OmniFocus.

Switched From: OmniFocus

Reasons for Switching to MeisterTask: Simplicity .. Yet many features are missing (sorry to keep nagging).
