I really love Notion. It's like a bunch of popular tools such as Trello, Evernote, Google Calendar and more combined into one, except everything supports live collaboration. This is an amazing tool and you get basically everything for FREE. I can see from other reviews that the free tier was limited... it is not so anymore.

Manuela Bárcenas · Answer

Fellow is the best tool for meeting collaboration.

-Assign action items as your meetings evolve and add them to your centralized action item/to-do list.
-Write talking points and meeting notes simultaneously.
-Keep teammates accountable by following up on their assigned tasks.

Oh... And it integrates with your Google Calendar and messaging apps like Slack to send you smart insights and reminders 👌

I'm a huge fan of Asana. I've tried lots of different project management tools and to-do apps, but Asana is by far my favorite. The free version has a ton of features, so many that we haven't even upgraded our team to the paid version lol. You can create projects in both a Trello style layout and a list layout. It also connects with G-Suit and Google calendar. They also have pre-made project templates that you can use. Check out the On-Boarding Asana template, it helped our team rapidly onboard the tool. :)

Josh Lee · Answer

Our team launched a new team collaboration hub to help you manage your conversation as well as tasks more efficiently every!

We used to be heavy users of most of the products mentioned above. Our team had used most of them for more than 5 years, integrating many apps. But all we could do with those integrations is just to receive un-contextual text-based notifications into selected channels. Also, there are too many overlapped features with no interaction among exiting single-function products.

So, we realized this disjoint multi-app environment reduced our team productivity and created more communication overhead.  So, we started to build Swit, using our technologies and previous experience of backend-integrated app building platform and many enterprise softwares.

Our primary purpose is to give today’s professionals, millennials or X, Y, Z more freedom from too many integrations or app hopping through Chat, post, file managing, various task managements (kanban, gantt chart, calendar), and still emails. You will never have to sacrifice interaction in the name of integration now with Swit!

One more thing. We believed there has been no innovation in the mobile Enterprise environment, for mobile devices don’t support APIs or Bot-based integrations. So, the most important features in Team collaboration such as file managing, not just sharing, notifications, and search engines are still left behind, at least in the Mobile section of out-of-office productivity apps.

Try Swit, the taste of teamwork. Swit will turn your words into trackable action!

Stowe Boyd · Answer

I'm burned out on work management that is 99% lists of tasks. I now favor context-centric tools, like Paper. It seems more natural to me to create topic- or project-oriented documents that include tasks embedded in them. Paper is good for that. And the 'Things To Do' tab allows me to find tasks across all docs, assigned to me, or to filter just those in the currently open Paper doc. Very nice. And this is all taking place in a shared, commentable, co-editable document system.

Shamit Khemka · Answer

It's basically a task management app that gives you a great overview of what is being worked on and who is working on it.

zioneyemedia · Answer

I also recommend Trello, at least to a certain degree. The free version works well for basic PM work, but to make the most of the robustness of the platform, you have to pay -- which is good or bad, depending on your preference. With the paid version, you can increase the level of integration and collaboration within teams. You'll be able to have more tools at your disposal, but note that some of the tools are both free and paid, so it's an extra cost.

I'm a marketer, but I deal with lots of non-marketing folks (designers, developers, business, product teams, finance), and Trello makes it easy/simple for lots of skill sets to collaborate.

Hi! Outplanr was built to turn a simple to do list into a real work plan and it's focused on collaboration. But it doesn't have connections with google apps, except Google Calendar. Give it a try and see if it fits you 😀

Darryl Pinto · Answer

I use (also work at Flock) its in-built to-do app for managing personal as well as work tasks. Works perfectly for me since it enables to turn my conversations into actionable to-dos. What most to-do apps  lack is the instant messaging capability. Flock overcomes this snag since the nimble to-do app built over its chat platform.

And yeah, it's free!
