What task management software are you using?
by•
Over the years working for agencies I've become quite familiar with tools like @asana and @Jira , also with @Trello for personal projects. But I was wondering, are these the most used or are these just the ones I've been exposed to? Are there better options? Would love to hear your thoughts down below!

@alan_rivera, I've dabbled with Asana, Notion, Trello, Monday... but @ClickUp has become my go-to. It's got a bit of feature bloat, but it just blew the others out the water for me... it's really so dependent on your style of management, though, and what automations you need.
@alan_rivera ignore the pun, but I just clicked with it. I haven't really thought it through much. I really do like their integration of AI - it works well and is almost integrated at a foundational level, rather than being an add-on like in Asana. But more simply, it just made sense to me. I saw it and understood what to do - that's why I think it's such a style-dependency thing
currently - Obsidian for both tasks management and content. used to use Jira at work and Trello at work and for personal stuff.
@taniabell eyy let's go! haha finally another obsidian user! You're tech stack is pretty much the same as mine.
@alan_rivera lfg. Obsidian all the way. love the tool, the ethos and their community. supper cool and inspirational
For personal projects, I always use Brisqi - it's an offline-first personal Kanban and task management app. A little biased as I built it :)
@alan_rivera haha thanks! Feel free to provide any unfiltered feedback.

Jira, Trello, Asana, Apple Reminders – personally love reminders the most! :)

Jira or Trello are for the work tasks while Apple reminders serve for my also for my personal tasks or as "reminders" of my work tasks too :D
Product Hunt
We use @Linear and Notion at Product Hunt, and while sometimes the handoff between the two can be a little bit messy, I like the flexibility of @Notion . As things get closer to being actually built, I like the structure and process that @mikekerzhner has set up in Linear, and how focused on engineering issue tracking it is.
For personal task tracking, I've tried various systems, but I tend to come back to a very simple markdown text file approach. For personal projects, I'll usually use @Bear .
Product Hunt
Since i have used all at different point so, i used Asana for mostly handling marketing teams and Jira for technical (cs projects) side.
@ajay27324 I always found Asana more intuitive and just an overall better experience but my team uses jira so not much I can do there! Will probably start using Asana for my start up though we'll see.
DrawKit
I have a bit of a small ecosystem going:
@todoist for personal tasks
@Linear for work tasks
@Akiflow to stitch everything together and assign each task a day and a time block
@jamesdaly90 Hadn't heard of akiflow seems super useful and interesting might give the free trial a go!
Used Monday.com, ClickUp, Trello, and Asana. For my needs (simple task management and organization), Asana's the top choice.
@mewdoro none other :)
@mewdoro @mia_k1 hahha tried the mewdoro extension just a few days ago definitely the cutest pomodoro timer I've tried.
@mia_k1 @alan_rivera meow :) maybe you have some suggestions?
@alan_rivera I also personally use the tools you have provided in your question. The only task management tool that I also like to use is @Notion for more complex projects, since it allows me to have more formatting options and tools.
I see quite some advertisements for Motion, this is an AI-tool that manages your tasks and calendar. This one can be an interesting one for you to look at. However I have not used this one myself!

At the moment for all the startups that I am working with @Notion and @Asana.
@rubenlozanome if it ain't broke don't fix it! Seeing everyone using notion is making me fomo no obsidian lovers here haha
