# What software did you find useful outside of work?

##### Post Metadata - Posted at: over 1 year ago - Author title: Owner of TORO RANK - Net upvotes: 3 ## Comments ### Comment 1 <p>Outside of work I LOVE using Trello as a travel planner. I use the free version to create the bare bones of the trip and then before we go, I subscribe to the paid version to get extra features like locations etc, to further enhance my Trello board and finish adding details and filling in everything I plan to do each day. Each board is a city I have gone to or am planning to go to, and the columns are days of the trip and then cards are activities, meals, travel info, and more. I’ll never travel without it again. </p> ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: over 1 year ago - Author title: UX copywriter, End-user support - Net upvotes: 2 #### Reply 1 <p>That's awesome, never thought of this :D </p> ##### Reply Metadata - Posted at: over 1 year ago - Author title: Owner of TORO RANK #### Reply 2 <p>Love this use case!</p> ##### Reply Metadata - Posted at: over 1 year ago - Author title: CTO - Growth Marketer full stack #MarTech | ⚡️ SaaS Advisor #### Reply 3 <p>Wow, I thought I was a thorough planner with my Google Sheet.

Microsoft To Do is as useful for shopping lists as it is for work tasks. I find relational database tools like Stackby, Grist, NocoDB, and Notion to be powerful for organizing ideas and information for personal projects as well as work. Notion is my personal journalling platform and web clipper, too. I've been experimenting with replacing it with Anytype. I'm not quite ready to make the plunge.</p><p>When we learn to use tools at work, it trains our minds to approach problems in certain ways that have lots of applications in personal life.</p> ##### Comment Metadata - Posted at: over 1 year ago - Author title: Project Manager at Faith Builders Educational Programs - Net upvotes: 2 ### Comment 4 <p>I've found password managers to be really helpful in personal and work life.
