The user interface is beautiful, love dark mode. You are able to customize this completely to help you organize all areas of your life.
My biggest complaint is that it has no format for texts.
I love the clean, modern design aesthetic and usability of the software. I also love that despite this visual simplicity, there is a lot of power and flexibility under the hood.
My wife can sign into this, but then she is subject to all my stuff, which she does not need, and there is no way to turn off lists per device or hide various items.
The interface is so polished, so fast, and super intuitive. I've been in love with the latest version of Things since its release.
Using Things, or any GTD app really, requires constant maintenance. If I spend a couple days outside the app, I'll end up with lots of stuff on my "Today" list, which can feel overwhelming.
It is the best organizer money can buy on the Apple Platform, also it is actually worth it. This app is completely supplied with the necessary features and abilities by thoughtful developers.
The biggest down side is the lack of sharing. I cannot share a task with someone else or give task to particular people.
I love that it allows multiple people to see what we are working on. It's great for a variety of functions like mind mapping, brainstorms, and flow documentation for applications.
I've watched people click and move things in the wrong places, edit the wrong areas, or generally mess up a board. No integration with wider ecosystem eg Microsoft/Google suite of tools.
I love that it is so free hand and real time that it feels as if we were doing this physically. It also results in a good progress being seen throughout and that is is accessible to all anywhere.
Literally the only thing I can think of is that you can't pay for it without a credit card, which is a pain for me.
The templates are also an amazing feature that take the work out of setting up an activity and can even be a good source of inspiration if you're out of interesting meeting ideas.
Some editing options for different tools are limited and it can be a little bit frustrating.
I appreciate Miro's fun and creative features that make collaboration engaging and dynamic, fostering a more visually stimulating work environment.
Sometimes I get lost with the layers or locking content. I feel that this feature could be set differently.
Danny D.: Hi, my name is Danny, director of Website Development. I would rate Things a 4 out of 5 stars, and if you want more reviews like this, click the link below. Before Things, I was using, gosh, probably every task manager you can imagine. The most recent one was Todoist that I tried before Things and I just felt it somewhat more restrictive compared to Things. The tagging system and all the categorization felt very hierarchical and very linear, whereas Things tends to be a little bit more flexible. We also chose Things for the organization because of the pricing structure. There's just a one-time fee per device as opposed to a monthly payment structure with Todoist. So that was something that drew our organization to Things. Getting started with Things was very simple once it was purchased. When you open it up, there's this nice onboarding that they give you to teach you. It's slightly different from some of the other task management programs, but that's what drew us to it, was the flexibility. So they had a good onboarding that popped up on the screen and walked you through it, and that was super helpful for the initial setup and trying to get to use a task manager that was slightly different from others that we had used in the past. For anyone thinking about switching to Things, I would say just do it. The pricing structure, the onboarding, just the flexibility. It also integrates with calendars so you can link your calendars into your to-do list, which is almost magical to have that integration. I feel like having them separate was a challenge for us in the past and Things helped us to give this bigger picture look into the to-do list, as opposed to having it separate from the calendar. So that was something that drew us to it.
Angelina S.: Hi. I am Angelina of Angelina's Arts and Crafts. I make cards of all occasions and jewelry. My rating here in DC is four by Miro. I was using the Square payment along with PayPal, Google, and Windows. I found the Miro I had to get rid of Square because it became too complicated to keep track of payments, names, numbers, emails, and Miro just made it easier. Got rid of Square, got rid of PayPal business, which was also a headache, and Windows. Miro has made my business so easy, so when I need to get my products out, it's a one, two, three, done. I don't have headaches. Go into my computer, if I sell a item, it's just taken off. I don't have to go in and look at a number, find the item or anything, it's just take it off, it's sold. Thank you. I don't have to stress anymore. Thank you, Miro. Very easy. I mean, follow the directions. If you can read, if you can read, you can do it. Miro is easy. I got my sister and one more friend of mine who has a business and she switched from what she was on to Miro's. If you're in a small business, it's very good to start with Miro's. Don't go to Square and don't go to PayPal business, use Miro.
