### "Simple yet very powerful task organizer"

March 19, 2025

5.0

Amazing, simple to use, very usefuel for simple every day productivity.

Pros

I love the "My Day" feature. The simplicity of the user interface. very straightforward direct and simple software, which is great.

Cons

While the simple things work great, it would be awesome to have more features. Also, there is something about the my day feature where it would be great if it was easier to rollover unfinished tasks from my previous day.

### "Microsoft review- Coordinator"

November 6, 2025

4.0

Overall, I love using Microsoft and will continue to use it to help keep me organized at work, especially since it is convenient and automatically pulls things from Outlook.

Pros

The thing I like most about Microsoft is that it allows a space on my computer for all of my Outlook calendar events to be laid out in a neater/easier way to see and understand.

Cons

Sometimes I experienced minor lagging/ glitching, which could get annoying. Although, these glitches never lasted very long and they seemed to fix the problem as soon as it was reported.

I made the switch because the Monday website became too expensive and didn't allow me to organize my tasks as I wanted to.

### "Never forget any tasks again "

August 31, 2026

4.0

Pros

Microsoft To Do is great platform for management features and is worth every penny. It allows scheduling tasks through which user can set reminders for important or upcoming dates and events which makes tasks clutter free. Collaborating with teams is also easy with Microsoft To Do as it offers sharing and tracking collaborated work. The interface is easy to use which makes task completion quick.

Cons

Microsoft To Do is a good tool to remember little things and set the reminders that helps in organizing life.

### "A Beginner Tool for Task Management with Noticeable Limits"

July 18, 2025

3.0

When I first started using MTD, I found it to be an intuitive tool for project management. I liked the ability to organize tasks into categories and to have access to these via my phone. However, once I graduated to larger project management across multiple software ecosystems, the limits of MTD became abundantly clear. If one needs it for small project management, I think it is a better piece of software than its immediate competitor (Google Tasks).

Pros

1) It has a low learning curve and is very easy to use right out of the gate. The navigation is intuitive. 2) If all you need is a basic task manager that works with the Microsoft ecosystem, it is perfectly suitable for that task. 3) Within the Microsoft ecosystem, it does a solid job provide reminders and notifications, connecting to your calendar, etc. The mobile app is also, in my experience, perfectly usable. 4) For most basic task management needs, To Do's features make it perfectly suitable. When I first used it for a single large project, its features let me differentiate types of work, steps, and due dates.

Cons

1) If you need it to interact with anything outside of the Microsoft ecosystem, I found that you needed to use a third party service as a router between Microsoft and the other ecosystem. For me, this would have required navigating two different ecosystems and manually moving things from one to the other. 2) It is not feature rich. The features it has work great for small project management or general to do lists, but beyond that, it lacks some of the common features of its competitors. I won't fault it too much for this because it is a free piece of software. 3) It isn't, in my opinion, well-designed for managing large projects or multiple projects. The features it has could technically do this work, but I found that this created more confusion and mental drain than a more feature rich alternative. This might not be an issue for someone who does not manage multiple projects which run regularly and all year. 4) Some integrations between To Do and other Microsoft software either isn't possible or requires a third party solution. This is unfortunate.

### "Simple and Reliable Task Management for Everyday Use"

June 12, 2026

5.0

My overall experience with Microsoft To Do has been very positive. The platform is easy to learn, and the simple layout improves EASE OF USE for both personal and work-related task management. It works well for PROJECT MANAGEMENT by helping organize deadlines, reminders, and daily priorities in one place. TEAM COLLABORATION is helpful when sharing task lists with others, especially for small projects or group planning. CUSTOMER SUPPORT resources and Microsoft help pages are useful when troubleshooting problems. I have experienced only minor BUGS AND ISSUES occasionally, like syncing delays, but overall the app runs smoothly and reliably.

Pros

What I liked most about Microsoft To Do is how simple and organized it makes daily planning. The layout is clean and easy to use, so it doesn’t feel overwhelming when managing multiple tasks. I also like the My Day feature because it helps prioritize what needs to get done each day. It is great value for money!

Cons

I can’t think of any cons when it comes to Microsoft To Do. It is good software with minor bugs and issues.

### "Great multi device organiser"

February 19, 2025

I think it is a fantastic way of keeping myself organised on the go. If I am out and about, it means I can plan and update projects on the fly.

Pros

The ease of use, flexibility to use on multiple devices. Great that I can have it on my work phone, tablet, laptop and PC, all synced together with notifications on every device when needed.

Cons

the amount of tasks in my to do list, that isn't Microsoft's fault though!

### "As with most Microsoft products, there's a lot to desire. "

March 7, 2025

I liked that it is working as it should, but the lack of important integrations made me switch to another product.

Pros

It is easy to use, and reliable, and there isn't a steep learning curve for new employees.

Pros

Project management can be made easy if utilizing the Microsoft To Do Program. Working and collaborating with a team on projects makes tackling tasks like scheduling are simplified for ease of use.

Cons

There are not many negative aspects with the Microsoft To Do Program however if something has to be noted it would be ease of use for non-tech savvy personnel.

### "Microsoft to do - helping me stay organised!"

December 22, 2025

5.0

Great I’ve had no issues with it. Easy to use very clean look to it. Simple but effective way of organization. My team like it as they are operationally focused and have a lot of fact finding within their roles so they will flag an email add to the to do and then go back to it once the task is complete.

Pros

It is a free list tool to keep track of my daily lists. I like it due to its clean look and the fact you can link it to the flagged emails, as I work off multiple devices at once and have to move around offices multiple times a day coordinating with multiple teams to meet with different stakeholders it keeps me on track of my own work as I add to it.

Cons

Could have more deeper team sharing ability. To be able to link projects into this on greater detail would be good

Pros

I like that it is very simple and easy to use. It helps me organize my daily tasks fast and I can access it from different devices. The integration with Microsoft account is very useful.

Cons

Sometimes it feels a bit limited for more complex projects. I miss more advanced options for tracking progress or working with bigger task lists.

### "Simple and Easy"

July 18, 2025

5.0

I was able to download app fast and get started right away. Has a nice simple layout which I like. No overwhelming information. I love it is isn't clustered with to many things. Right at the top is My Day label to click on and see the days task I have saved and planned ahead for. Nice picture background on my day too. I can make my task ahead of time so that makes it easier to do other things without having to mark a task everyday.

Pros

Easy to get started with the app as soon as I downloaded it. Quickly and easily add task I want to do. Can mark the ones that are important to do before other .

Cons

So far I haven't found anything that I don't like or that I would change. Nothing wrong with the app.

Pros

Microsoft To Do is a very user-friendly to-do list software. I love how you can create different sections and lists for organizational purposes

Everyday, I wake up and check my Microsoft "To Do" list. This instantly helps me wrap my head around my daily task at hand. And as I gain future tasks I add it right to the to-do list.

Pros

I like how Microsoft To Do helps me manage my "To Do" list and track my progress. It really helps you stay organized.

### "Great to keep you on track and organized!"

March 13, 2025

4.0

I use it daily. It helps to keep me on track and reminds me of items that I have coming up as I set them up to do so. Which sometimes is hard when notifications don't come through as you expect them to.

Pros

I like this feature a lot. It is easy to set up and accessible straight from my Outlook main screen.

Cons

I wish that I could open them in a separate window so I can work out of my to-do list and read emails simultaneously.

### "Managing multiple task is super easy with this tool."

February 21, 2025

5.0

Microsoft To-Do helped me stay organized and productive. I used it to plan a big event and breaking down tasks into subtasks made sure nothing fell through the cracks. It’s a powerful tool for both personal and professional task management that is deceptively simple.

Pros

One thing I like is that Microsoft To-Do works closely with other Microsoft 365 apps including Outlook and Teams. For example, I used it to organize tasks for a group project, and the ability to create shared lists meant everyone could be on the same page. The “My Day” feature is also excellent for focusing on daily tasks.

Cons

No advanced features, such as time tracking and Gantt charts, which restricts use for complex projects. On the other hand, the task views could be customized only to a limited extent in comparison with other task managers.

Pros

Microsoft To Do can easily take notes without open note software manually. It is very simple and cloud base platform. I usually take my task in browser. And then we can integrate with outlook and other Microsoft apps. And then can also set the task remainders.

Actually, I don't have many things least about Microsoft To Do. It cannot enjoy for everyone. But, If you are using Office 365 suites, It is the best.

Serves its purpose very well, the flagging of Junk mail is a very unwelcome characteristic of the app.

Pros

Cons

Junk email get flagged to review; this translates to junk mail getting flagged as relevant on your dashboard. Duplicates are created, creating a monstrosity unimportant information...rt. at your fingertips. :)
