Pros

“The way we use Jira is primarily for campaign builds: building websites for refresh tasks, email sequences, changing paid search stuff or the occasional client journey diagram.”
ET

Edward T.

Founder and Marketing Strategist

“What I like most about Jira is that it is a very useful and structured tool for organizing team tasks, managing requests coming from different departments, and keeping track of the progress of each activity.”
CR

Carmine R.

Software developer

“For the Agile teams it is the best tool to use as it offers backlog management feature and sprint planning also I can customize the workflow which suits me and my team.”
JP

Jonathan P.

Digital Content Specialist

Pros

“The standout for me is the keyboard-driven quick-capture shortcut on Mac: I can fire up a capture window instantly without breaking focus, which is huge for staying in flow.”
NK

Nathan K.

Founder and Owner

“It solved a real problem around fast, low-friction task capture — especially that quick-capture shortcut on Mac — and gives me confidence that everything I need to do is in one trusted spot.”
NK

Nathan K.

Founder and Owner

“Todoist has a good project structure with subtasks and priorities, and a really good reminder system to help meet deadlines.”
EB

Emma B.

Community Manager

Cons

“For new users, the platform can seem crowded with many menus, boards, filters, projects, and configuration options, so it takes some time to understand where to look and how to navigate efficiently.”
CR

Carmine R.

Software developer

“Some admin tasks feel more complicated than they should be, and the system can slow down if you’re working with big projects or lots of dashboard widgets. While the interface offers a lot, it can seem crowded at times, which can make it tougher for new or less technical team members to get started.”

Hadi B.

Product Coordinator

“I also remember encountering situations between 2023 and 2025 where I did not receive expected email notifications, and because of keyword-related rules, some tickets were missed. While these issues were not frequent, they could occasionally affect workflow efficiency.”
Verified reviewer profile picture

Komal G.

Process Associate

Cons

“It is a task management tool (a To-Do List), not a collaborative project manager. If I want to collaborate with a large team, track budgets, or design cross-functional schedules, Todoist hits its limits very quickly.”
AB

Andreja B.

Senior Platform Engineer

“As soon as you try to use Todoist for collaborative project management involving more than three people, the system shows its limits.”
HH

Heather H.

Marketing and Communications Executive

“When you have thousands of tasks in one project (especially large Web Dev projects that have a ton of subtasks), it can get extremely slow.”
