Considering my plans with zCasting 3000, collaboration is a selling point, but for my personal task management I’d like a native and well designed app. I give Todo Pro that it has collaboration. When I use the app it feels great, but then there are so many small things that don’t work as I intend them to, or are awkward, or just plain ugly. The app is feels at home on iOS and OS X, but there are so many rough design edges. ![]() I highly recommend you check out Todo Pro. The free version has so many features that I barely have a need for a subscription. ![]() Todo Pro is native, it has a lot of features, the basic version is free, and there’s more to it that I loved. A third-party app named Hill88 makes up for the disappointing iPhone app created by Asana. The lack of a really good iOS app is also a downside for me. With Asana there’s a limit to how deeply nested lists can go. It’s easy to just take one of these lists and drag it to the sidebar to create a project out it. With Asana I can create multiple projects and manage subtasks inside, but what I like about OmniFocus is that I can have lists within lists within lists within lists. It’s web based, which I just explained why this is a general downside for me. Asana comes pretty close to a wonderful GTD app, but it’s lacking in so many ways. I use Trello for certain projects now, and I play with the idea to use it for zCasting 3000 in the future, but it is not the tool I settled with, for me personally. When I want to compare whether project A or project B needs more love, I need to open two boards in two tabs and move the windows around and whatnot. I know their keyboard shortcuts are extensive, but when I use Trello, I click more than I would like to. What I also don’t like is that Trello is a web-based app. By personal I mean personal more in the context of “me personally”, which includes my professional as well as my private life. While Kanban is great for team work, I find it not as appropriate for personal task management. Kanban is interesting, but it’s just not for me. Trello is great because it follows a different approach than Getting Things Done. ![]() I’ll briefly explain why these are my favorites. I was wondering what the competition was doing and so I looked for alternatives. A paid upgrade, which caused me to question whether OmniFocus still is king of task management. I did the same thing last year, when OmniGroup released a brand new version of OmniFocus for iPhone. Gabe has posted how he revises his approach to task management, which I would have ignored, if not Sven pointed it out. Text Post How OmniFocus Almost Lost Me (A GTD App Comparison)
