Top Rated MeisterTask Alternatives
It’s designed beautifully and easy to use. The additions they did to the Kanban system especially with the addition of a to-do list inside cards and due dates are certainly very helpful. Although I do think some work needs to be done particularly on displaying them and making them work seamlessly (without having to click on the cards one by one to check).

1. Biggest pet peeve - it seems to be an Electron app and not a native Mac app. While usable, I don’t think there is advantage to using MeisterTask on desktop compared to iPad/iPhone - I personally think something could be done to make the Mac app more distinctive compared to the iPad/iPhone app.
2. Also, being a web app, it’s performance is wanting compared to native Mac kanban app. I would open my laptop from sleep, go directly to MeisterTask, click on a card and start editing something halfway until it refreshes to a blank screen and the card display reappearing without saving my changes. Accordingly it becomes unresponsive once my laptop is disconnected from the internet. I tried some native Mac kanban apps through the App Store and all of them - without exceptions - performs much, much better.
3. Pricing. There’s a large jump between USD per month to USD 8.25. For something that I use personally without any team members to manage my workflow, 3 projects in the free tier is not very workable. It’s a very small number. I don’t need the unlimited projects of the USD 8.25 either. Something right in the middle (for example, let’s say 50 projects) with a more reasonable pricing would work. It’s much more expensive than Trello without much of the advantages.
4. Speaking of the USD 8.25 pricing, the paywall. I believe there’s been a new feature locked only for the business/enterprise users...which the Pro users does not really have an access to. It might’ve been a useful feature for productivity, but there’s no option for the Pro users to say trial that new feature (if you want to move them up to the Business accounts) or add on top of their Pro subscription, which, for the price and the relative lack of meaningful update, is still a bit too expensive for me.
5. Relative lack of new features. I’m not really sure whether there is a roadmap of what would be introduced to the app (particularly for the non-Business users?) I do think that there’s a lot that could be worked on such as (a) displaying to-do items directly on cards, (ii) “nested” kanban (so that it would be possible to have a kanban for a general work overview and then another one for each card to manage the minute details of your work or (iii) column autosort based on due dates (I’m not sure whether this is already in?)
6. Adjustment for personal use. This is more about how I use MeisterTask but if you’re a personal user, you probably won’t need the “assign work” feature. It would be great if that could be switched off as the user badges kind of clutters the interface. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've been using MeisterTask for a few months now, and I have to say, it's a game-changer! The ease of use is phenomenal – everything is intuitive and straightforward. Implementing it was a breeze, and the onboarding process was super smooth.
One of the standout features is the highest data security, which gives me peace of mind knowing our information is safe. MeisterTask has truly simplified our project management. It helps in optimizing revenue by keeping us organized and on track. Plus, it boosts productivity by saving so much time on task management.
Overall, it's an excellent tool that I highly recommend for anyone looking to streamline their workflow and enhance their team's efficiency! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
While MeisterTask is fantastic overall, I do wish there were more customization options for the task boards and templates. Sometimes, the simplicity can be a bit limiting for more complex projects. Additionally, it would be great to have more integrations with other tools we use daily. But honestly, these are minor issues compared to the overall benefits.

None so Far. This application has been helpful in terms of managing task because with this we may assign tasks to specific team members and act as a task watcher to ensure nothingfalls through. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The program is visually elegant, simple to use, and has all of the features required to get started in the free edition. I really enjoy the fact that I can add comments, links, tags, and checklists to each task entry. I can divide projects and assign duties to team members. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
It would be wonderful to have an overview timeline for all team members in one account, similar to a monthly summary of the team's movement, so we can see what is going on and what is coming up for each team member. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The card system is easy. It offers the ability to add dates, share with others. Everything you'd expect. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I upgraded to a paid level because I wanted to manage more boards than the free version allowed. However, I learned after upgrading that EVERYONE collaborating with me had to be upgraded if I wanted to use the upgrade features in my boards. I contacted customers support and they refused to issue a refund even though it was less than a week after I paid. Disappointing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
The colorful kanban type interface, the multiple projects list you can have, colorful tags, integration from mindmeister, easy integration from other websites to spawn tasks. I use it on my phone, tablet, my ipad. Great looking dashboard too! I can use it as an engineer, or use it as a sales pipeline, manage work and play tasks...I use it as a notes database in my favorites, great search function, can assign tasks to my wife and others si she can execute things on my behalf Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
This is an awesome tool in my opinion. I cannot fault the features I use. Its available on my phone, ipad and windows 10 so my tasks are always available. I probably take on too much work because the tool makes it look easy to accomplish. :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I like the ability to change the status of tasks and assign them to team members. Though not all team members were advocates of this method of record-keeping, I found it a useful way to organize my thoughts and keep the project on task. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
I can't say there is anything that I dislike about it. I only used the free version so there may have been a lot more features that I could have taken advantage of. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
