📝 I GOT AN APP, REVIEW US!

Looking to get your app reviewed?!

My policy is simple. Let me know about the app on email or in Twitter DMs, and I'll take a look. Give me time to explore the tool, and I’ll get back to you about an honest review and whether it fits our content schedule here at Keep Productive.

British term of the week: "been around for absolute donkeys", love it! Francesco's videos are always so well prepared and informative, but I could listen to them just to hear his accent!

[supersproodle]

We evaluated several of these including Trello, MeisterTask, Clickup, Monday, Teamwork, and Asana. Each has strong attributes but we found that Asana provided the most value for our small team.

[justinoneill]

FAVRO is the absolute best. His review does not do it justice. I can assure anyone watching this that it can be used for small teams on up to large scale. The power is it's flexibility

[injcksn]

Cesi! great video. I was looking at programmes for production line management and you popped up in the suggested videos!

[Taskade]

Hope to see Taskade included in the next list :)

[doesexistthisname]

Thanks, very good!
very interesting. I would like a video dedicated to freelancers who work with a variable number of people and from whom they cannot ask to pay to improve our work organization
Basecamp has a flat price, but 99/month in not so low... alternative?

[morganellis]

Restya is a better choice. It is easier to understand and free for most users.

You should also take a look at Jira cloud, The company is adding lots of features that is friendly with non software dev people. They also announced free plans for their suits. Definitely worth checking out.

[thomasryeeriksen]

It is so hard to pick one...

We are a team consisting of 6 full time workes and another 6 part time workers. Not within IT-business and some of the members has limited digital skills. I need something intuitive, visual and flexible for a small team. Any suggestions would be appreciated!

[MikeAzul]

Awesome information thanks a lot for the list

So you mention Atlassian's Trello, but you skip their Jira, which is actually often preferred by enterprises along with their other products. Why such an arbitrary decision to omit this? I had hoped for a comparison against Trello, and to see if other people also dislike their laggy and cumbersome UI for any purposes other than very simple coarse-grained task planning. Either way, this analysis felt like an average advertisement, where you randomly highlight some features without really judging them from any viewpoint of real use-cases, so this approach of "this is good for medium teams" "this is also good for medium teams" was quite pointless in my opinion. Also outside the manager's point of view of project planning for the purpose of reporting the task state, I'm not quite convinced that any of these tools really provides any greater value than keeping a simple spreadsheet file (with a primitive WYSIWYG editor in one description field) when it comes to actually multi-tasking and keeping track of any complex scenarios, as all of the complexity stays on your side.

What I struggle with is dealing with 3 external agencies all on JIRA and our internal projects and how to manage all of them.

JIRA seems fine for web dev and sw Dev stuff but normal projects are better handled on more traditional PM software.

What I would love is a way to show all of them or manage all of them on one platform. Does such a option exist?

How are others doing it?

[nikoc]

Correction needed: Trello was not created by Atlassian but "acquired" by Atlassian and that too much later than 2013

What are the best project management apps for individuals? there are many apps out of your list, like Mindjet, MS-projects, Clarizen, etc. I think Notion shouldn't be included in the list of project apps, it is more an Office App.

[carolynberry]

Restyaboard is my favorite PM software in 2020.

Hi, thanks for the video. If you change your first timestamp to 0:00 then the chapters will show on the video timeline bar

[neithanm]

Thank you for this, I got a couple of good leads. As a constructive critique, please, learn how to use "but." You use it wrong almost all the time, and it doesn't help your speech at all. As conjunction (is what you are trying to use it for):
*"Used to introduce a phrase or clause contrasting with what has already been mentioned."*
e.g., "he stumbled but didn't fall."

For example:
7:40 -> "It was previously called Dapulse, BUT it's been around since 2012" ¿? It makes no sense to join those two statements with "but."
8:43 -> "It's more for startups and small teams, BUT it is a rising star for entrepreneurial types." What do you mean "but"? Again, there's no "but" there. Startups are by definition for entrepreneurial types, there's no contrast here.

Those two are the ones I bothered to quote for you, BUT trust me, there are more misuses, which spoil your performance. While on the subject, if you want to say something about pricing, please forget the word "reasonable." In your opinion, prices are either "reasonable, " "fairly reasonable, " "very reasonable, " "so reasonable, "...

Honestly, not trying to offend. *But* if I were to upload videos of myself talking, I'd grab a dictionary and polish my communication abilities.
GL buddy.

[jorgeosorio]

Excellent video thanks so much for the very useful information.

[sortff]

I am surprised that Ganttpro is not in the list. sure that it's better at least than half of the tools in this video.

Which one can do resource levelling automatically, just like ms project does ?
