Freelance Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The best application" January 12, 2024 5.0 Great experience .It is one of the best applications that I have used in instant communication .And she's still like you Pros I like this application in terms of managing tasks and projects and simplifying project planning, scheduling and tracking Cons There are difficulties in the free version Review Source Benjamin D. General councillor Education Management Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "A perfect balance between utility, useability and design" September 25, 2019 5.0 I am collecting the workflows of all of my different personal and professional projects into different boards and then into one intgrated dashboard. The ultimate friendship between power and simplicity. And then it also looks very beautiful! I really can't work with apps on a daily basis of they do not look nice, so I am very happy to have found this powerful, flexible, and intuitive software that also takes the cake when it comes to aesthetics! Pros MeisterTask strikes, for me, the perfect balance between the different aspects of a task system. It has all the functionalities that I have been looking for, for my project workflow system. I can create multiple kanban (Trello-like) boards for my different projects, yet see all of my due tasks from all of the different boards on one single dashboard. This way I can keep all of my different tasks and workflows organized, yet consult only one place to decide on my next activity. It also functions in a very intuitive way, and looks just beautiful. I especially love the option to have a daily changing photo on the home screen. Cons So far there is nothing at all I dislike about this software, which is a huge surprise for me. I have been looking for "the perfect" project workflow system for myself, and MeisterTask might be the one I have been looking for for so many months. There is only one smal technical improvement that I would suggest to the creators, which is the option to automatically assign newly created tasks to myself, so that I don't need to perform that as a routine action. Switched from [Todoist](https://www.capterra.com/p/149339/Todoist-for-Business/) The kanban functionality and the ever-so-slighly better design (any.do also looks very nice) Review Source PP Patrick P. Consultant Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Product" March 9, 2021 4.0 Overall experience is good. Pros I like all features on MeisterTask in general. Cons I'd like to have a full list of features when right clicking Tasks. And to be able to create a task with some shorcut, and predefine where the new task goes, like in a specific column in first or last position. In MeisterTask app, i'd like to have a forcetouch button to press and hold on some task and open a full list of features to do with that task.

Review Source Response from Meister April 6, 2021 Hi Patrick, Thank you for your review. The offered features are placed in Project properties, in the Project sections as well as in the task itself - according to what unit of the project they relate to. I will however still forward your feedback to our developers to consider it for future updates. Best regards, Your MeisterTeam rA revel A. Linguistic Consultant E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Serves my purposes" March 3, 2021 4.0 I use Meistertask in two different jobs. One, with a team, to move individual participation in a larger project through a specific process. The other is to keep tickets on tasks with complex and repetitive "do lists" in order to move those tickets through a larger process involving registration and licensing of machinery. In both cases I am generally satisfied with the flexibility of Meistertask towards my needs and project management style. Pros It's not got a heady learning curve. It's pleasant to look at. New team members catch on at once. Cons Comments should be dated rather than "two days ago" for accuracy. Data export needs to be more agile. Task timing needs a label feature (identification of each time frame timed) Switched from [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) Meistertask was suggested to me by a friend on a complex project team. I found it to suit my needs better than Trello at the time. Review Source Response from Meister April 1, 2021 Hi Revel, Thank you for your review! When you hover over comments in the Activity and Comment section, the date and time when they were posted will be displayed. Point taken though, we may want to display it right away instead of "x days ago" - i'll forward your suggestion to our developers, as well as your further ideas. We appreciate the feedback :) Best, Your MeisterTeam Emily B. Project Manager Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A Great UX and Design" July 31, 2020 5.0 We have been utilized this took to build up our product for not many years. I incline toward it extensively. Effectively open usefulness, includes a "fair works" stream, many tweak capacity, extremely bright however during a gratitude to make the work simple and increasingly fun. Easy to utilize and a wonderful interface. Extraordinary on the telephone as well. Great to be prepared to connect errands up with individuals. Pros Helpful for picking various activities which for my situation includes housework likewise as work assignments. Incredible for arranging my work, especially during the composing upstage. At an extremely moderate cost, we get a superb arrangement of highlights and in this way, the devices permit our group to plan and oversee errands without any problem. The reconciliations are incredible as well. Cons Frenquently my telephone wouldn't tell me of an undertaking that was expected which nullifies the point of getting development in case I'm not helped to remember it! Has a few bugs! Now and again need to restart the product, or move out of an errand and back to it to embrace and acquire the development to enter appropriately or a title. Review Source Amanda B. B2B and B2C Marketer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: Less than 6 months ### "Quick and Easy Task Scheduling Platform" June 14, 2023 3.0 Not so great platform for overall grand scheme task managment. Better for summarised and on the go task noting. Pros Quick and Easy task scheduling for when you need to write it down, but not necessarily great for detailed activity scheduling. Better for task noting and scheduling on the go. It's summary dahboard makes it easy to summarise task requirements that are simple and straightforward. The colors are not the most appealing, neither is the dashboard the most satisfying or the most relaxing. It's still workable nonetheless. Cons Intimidating overly crowded dashboard. The elements are not properly aligned. Misplaced QR codes and annoying color scheme. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Account Executive Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Great for To-Dos and Project Management " August 26, 2019 5.0 MeisterTask is really helping me keep track of the many things I have going on and keeping them organized by project, with deadlines and action items. It's a free tool that gives me all I need in a task management system when other brands and systems have fallen flat. Pros I started using MeisterTask about a year ago to keep track of all my projects internally. To be honest, even though it's marketed as a teams system, I love using it for just myself. It's the only to-do list type system I've found that helps me keep track of where things are and keep them organized. I like how you can manually move tasks from start, to in progress, to finish. You can clearly indicate action items and next steps, unlike a lot of the to-do list apps I've found. I also love that I can use it seamlessly from my computer to my phone. Cons Honestly, it's kind of all I need in a to-do/project management software. I've definitely found some quirks and some things in the system I need to get used to. But, overall it has all the features that one would use for task management and the collaboration process looks like it could be easy as well. Switched from [Microsoft To Do](https://www.capterra.com/p/227173/Wunderlist/) I needed something more robust, with a more user-friendly approach. Review Source Oleg G. Head of SEO Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Good Kanban-style tool for agile management." November 27, 2021 4.0 Pros Good Kanban-style tool for agile management. Love MeisterTask for its integration with MindMeister. Cons Very slow support. Take time to understand all features of the service. Lack of time tracking tools like it is in Toggl. Lack of features to fully customize the design of boards. Lack of feature to make public boards like in Trello. Switched from [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) MeisterTask have integration with MindMeister Review Source Response from Meister December 17, 2021 Hi Oleg, thanks so much for reaching out with your review!

Textile Artist Arts and Crafts Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "At Last I've Found Something That Really Works" May 23, 2019 5.0 I am professional artist so I'm using it for art projects - the creative and marketing tasks involved are generally the same - I've used the task template function to save time with all the to do's - it's provided me with more structure and consistency and has jogged my memory so many times and kept me on track. It makes managing so many subtasks so much easier - and seeing them laid out in a visually pleasing and easy to access way makes for a calmer mind and less stress. I have one renovation project which has a huge number of tasks and sub tasks. Previously I had written lists which were ok, but using Meistertask has made it so much easier to manage them, as well as giving me somewhere to record my thoughts in the comments under each task so that thinking through problems and making decisions can sit in the same place. When I get a random thought or a link related to a task, I can add it via the app and it's not lost in the maelstrom. I'm using the free version which gives so much value, I'm considering using a paid version just so I can access the stats and see my progress but that is just icing on the cake really. I absolutely love, love, love Meistertask and highly recommend it. It's changed my life and I enjoy using it every day. Pros It's visually pleasing to work with, you can colour code projects and add coloured tags which makes it easier to see what is going on. You can build custom task lists to reuse that saves a lot of time. You can put things into "focus" and add deadlines. Adding in links, files and comments makes tasks easier to think through and access reference material within the context of planning. There is so much functionality even with the free version. Cons There is no calendar function without integrating with another app. It would be awesome to be able to see scheduled tasks laid out in a calendar. I've sometimes had difficulty visualising overarching goals and tracking habits (I'm using the free version so there are no stats available). Review Source Max B. Business Consultant Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Best way to organize your business projects and stimulate co-workers to submit ideas " January 6, 2021 5.0 Overall this software is user-friendly and easy to implement within an organization. Every member of our company is able to make use of the software without any explanation from an administrator or trainer. I would recommend it to every organization that works on a project base. Pros The fact that there's a possibility to shuffle projects into different coloms. For example a colom named 'under consideration' and 'ready for use'. The different colors and tags make it easy to track the progress of a project. Cons My organization has limited paid accounts. That means that I have limited access to several project boards. I can read them but I'm not able to edit projects and submit ideas. Review Source KS Ken S. Creative Director Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Preferred alternative to Trello" February 19, 2021 5.0 I use MT mostly for managing to-do lists, mapping out project plans, and scheduling tasks. Pros MeisterTask suits me better because it is more visual - other products in this category value function over form, but that leaves them harder for me to use. MT has a better UI experience - colors works better, functions are in the right place, and actions are more intuitive. The Dashboard view is the best part, makes all the difference for me. Cons I still find myself choosing the wrong buttons - like completing a task vs just closing a window, but these are trivial. Switched from [Todoist](https://www.capterra.com/p/149339/Todoist-for-Business/)[Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) Better UI and experience. More visual, easier to see what's important. Dashboard view is so useful. Review Source Philippe B. Marketing Director Mechanical or Industrial Engineering Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Game changer" March 21, 2023 5.0 Another great feature of MeisterTask is the ability to create different projects and boards. This has allowed us to organize our tasks in a way that makes sense for our team. We can create different boards for different campaigns or initiatives, and it's easy to switch between them to see what we need to be working on. Pros One of the major benefits of using MeisterTask is its user-friendly interface. It's easy to navigate and use, even for team members who may not be tech-savvy. Cons Having the option to put the task in "waiting" mode instead of only have the option for Completed and Archive. The task would automatically go into the WAITING list. Review Source Cristian M. Founder Management Consulting Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "The best Kanban UX you will get in the web." February 16, 2022 4.0 I´m really happy with the tool. Specially the UX that i consider a key feature for itself. Is fast and i can use it everywhere, literally. Pros The UX nail me. Is really an important subject to attend. I try to use Microsoft Planner once, and even do the same things, in term of Kanban Board, the UX was the point of decision here. It really make the difference. Cons Would be great to have more pro features under lower tiers. If you work with teams, the Pro version is the one that can handle all, but it comes with a high price. Review Source Response from Meister February 24, 2022 Hi Cristian, thanks so much for reaching out. Great to hear that you've found the MeisterTask UX to be both intuitive and powerful. This is one of our most primary goals! I've forwarded your feedback regarding our tiered subscription system to our pricing team. Thanks for your response!

Director Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "LOVE Meistertask!" June 24, 2019 5.0 Pros I manage several grant projects at a time with several staff members working on each grant. I used to have a GIANT white board in my office where I would track the progress on grant deliverables and staff assignments. At the end of every day, I would spend 30 minutes to an hour erasing and updating the white board. Now, with MeisterTask, that task is cut down to 10-15 minutes. What's even better, is now I can just go ahead and assign people tasks right within MeisterTask and we can have whole conversations about tasks without ever leaving the program. IT IS A LIFE CHANGER for me. Beyond the features, it's also incredibly easy to use. Our staff was able to dive in and get acquainted with the program very quickly (and we aren't always the most tech savvy.) I HIGHLY recommend trying it out. I've started using MeisterTask for personal projects as well. Cons I wish there were better data tracking features. Like when you archive a task, it would be nice to be able to go back and see what got done in a single day. We also do a lot of data tracking for grants. We explored using Custom Feilds to record the data we were tracking. It worked great in the program, but did not download cleanly at all into a CSV which we needed for reports to our funders. If Meistertask could build some more robust data tracking into the program, it would be even better! Review Source BD Bronson D. Site Reliability Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Meistertask got me a promotion" May 5, 2022 4.0 Pros Easy Kanban features, smooth integration between platforms, great UI Cons Would love having a multiview option for the same tasks (multiple boards where columns can be mapped to different fields), better task labeling (it is terrible to have to enter one individual task to create a new label) Alternatives considered [Todoist](https://www.capterra.com/p/149339/Todoist-for-Business/)[Asana](https://www.capterra.com/p/184581/Asana-PM/)[Notion](https://www.capterra.com/p/186596/Notion/) Reason for choosing MeisterTask Better looking, easier to use, UI is less crowded Review Source Response from Meister May 10, 2022 Thanks so much for reaching out, Bronson - we're thrilled to hear about your promotion! Congratulations! We're also happy to hear you found MeisterTask's UI to be both intuitive and beautiful - this is one of our most primary goals :D I've forwarded your feature request to our product team - be sure to follow us on Twitter at @MeisterTask as we implement new features and updates!

Customer and Communications Strategist Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Maximizes Your Time, Minimizes the Learning Curve" June 10, 2019 5.0 Overall, the experience is wonderful. It relives stress rather than adding the stress of learning a new tool. I highly recommend it. Pros Unlike other project management platforms, Meistertask is not only affordable, but it allows you to do more with their basic features which only amplify with one of the paid versions. Meistertask is not only a great tool to help speed up workflow, it is also highly intuitive. Even if you haven't used the platform before, you most likely will be up and running within 30 minutes. It's drag and drop interface is incredibly fast, east, and straight forward making it ideal for beginner and advanced users. Cons The only issue that I have with the software is the lack of list view for the project workflow. I also would like to see calendar view of the current projects and not just in reporting view. Alternatives considered [Planning Center](https://www.capterra.com/p/76708/Planning-Center/)[Asana](https://www.capterra.com/p/184581/Asana-PM/) Reason for choosing MeisterTask It beautifully combined the core features I needed into one place.

Owner Financial Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Best Project Management Tool for My Business" March 22, 2023 5.0 Highly recommend. Pros Ease of use for beginner and advances users. Clients enjoy seeing the transparency in project management. Cons Some glitches at times. Comments get lost. Review Source SB Stefan B. Geschäftsführer Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Unser Flexibles Tool für (fast) alles" May 22, 2023 5.0 Wir nutzen Meistertask für sehr viele Tätigkeiten:- Projektmanagement- Teambeards- Als "Handbuch"- Für Notizen Pros Die Einfache Bedienung, ein Design, das spaß macht, die Flexibilität, die Möglichkeiten der Kollaboration Cons In großen projekten wird die Oberfläche manchmal langsam, die Terminierung in einem Gantt-Chart ist nur in der großen und teuren Version verfügbar, die Suchfunktion ist verbesserungswürdig. Alternatives considered [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) Reason for choosing MeisterTask Meistertask war das hübschere Programm und für uns absolut perfekt in seinem Umfang. Wir haben Trello gar nicht mehr getestet. Review Source ED Elisa D. Prestadora de Serviços Management Consulting Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Muito bom, recomendo" November 26, 2024 5.0 Atende as necessidades, fácil apredizagem, plataforma bem elaborada. Pros Níveis gratuitos sempre são satisfatórios, ainda interagem com o e-mail. Cons Nada a reclamar, pois está atendendo as minhas necessidades. Review Source Jed S. General Manager Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Simple Easy Task/Project Management" December 29, 2020 5.0 MeisterTask is great for task management, and to a lesser extent project management. One nice feature that has been added is mind-maps. It's a separate software, so you have to switch between mind maps and the task manager app, but it's a great addition. Pros I like the desktop interface for MeisterTask, first of all. It's strikingly beautiful and designed very well. Besides the first impression, the main screen has quite a bit of important information displayed that the user would need to access right away. All the features of the software are very quickly accessible from the main screen - high marks for ease of use. Cons I've been using the free version, so I understand that I would have to jump through some hoops now and then, but that would be my only negative. Occasionally, it will bring you to the purchase screen when you first log in. You have to select 'stay on free version' to proceed to the software. Reason for choosing MeisterTask Ease of use, and ability to stay on free version for as long as you like. Review Source AN Alexandra N. Deputy Head of Radiochemistry Lab Chemicals Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Enables a great overview & isn't too complicated" April 21, 2020 4.0 Pros It looks really nice and allows us to have a much better overview over the multitude of tasks we need to keep track of. Also, my non-tech-colleagues can use it easily as well. We use the "kanban board" in a slightly different way - using columns for different task groups like "quality management" or "orders" and subdivide it into the tasks that need to be finished. Being able to see how much of a task is done and who is currently working on it is also very nice. Cons We purchased an upgrade, but when we weren't on time for the payment it was confusing to get back to the basic version. Because that was so intransparent we're currently using the basic version although we've payed for the upgrade. Also, that bar you use to scroll - especially at the bottom of the screen to side-scroll is tiny - we often use Meistertask on a 13" screen, so if you could enlarge that, it would be great. Assigning multiple people to one task would also be a nice improvement. And do you have more colors? Alternatives considered [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) Reason for choosing MeisterTask \- Data Protection - the server must be in Germany, or our company will not allow its use - Data protection - no tracking of employees - easy to use Switched from [Microsoft Excel](https://www.capterra.com/p/176574/Excel/) Cause using an Excel Spreed sheet for Task Management is not efficient... Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Creative Director Design Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A great tool for a long time on the market." October 9, 2023 5.0 The appearance and style of the tool is great and UX is slicker than Trello, the tool i used prior. The kanban boards look great and easy to share. Pros The design of the tool felt better and more grown up than Trello and was easier to use. Cons The pricing changed a lot since I implemented it and it became too expensive. Alternatives considered [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/)[ClickUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/158833/ClickUp/)[Asana](https://www.capterra.com/p/184581/Asana-PM/) Reason for choosing MeisterTask Pricing and design.

Programmer Analyst Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Extremely Helpful Application" June 24, 2022 5.0 My experience has been excellent so far. The software is very functional and reliable. Pros The program was easy to set up and functions exactly as I need it to. Cons It would be helpful to enable custom fields; nevertheless, I have been able to work within the existing structure well. It would also be helpful to add vertical rows. As I have it configured, each column represents a stage in the task process. In my line of work though we migrate changes between domains, which means the process repeats for each domain that we migrate to. Vertical rows would represent the progression through the domains. Switched from [Businessmap](https://www.capterra.com/p/148476/Kanbanize/) I wanted to install the software on my Mac laptop.

Some command is different than a generic keyboard. It would be great if the command on the keyboard is the same. Such as I can use ctrl+A to select all or simply copy a sentence by crtl+c, etc. Alternatives considered [Miro](https://www.capterra.com/p/128955/Miro/) Reason for choosing MeisterTask easy to use for the task management Review Source Response from Meister July 26, 2021 Hi Priscilla, thanks so much for your feedback!
