- the board overview page (landing page) with the nice welcome message which changes every time

- sync between mobile and web of your boards

- time tracking for each task

- a large variety of icons for your sections

- ability to import my trello project to this one (unless it was a really large project - in that case i got an error) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

- not as many options as trello which comes with a variety of plugins (chrome extensions) for burndown charts, assigning story points to tasks, etc

- the fact that you cannot assign more than 1 person to a task

- encountered issues while trying to search for particular tasks in a large board

- the fact that you can only move a task from one section to another via drag and drop - this can get hard on a board with multiple sections and each section with multiple tasks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MeisterTask?

MeisterTask allows the project to include the best practices of a kanban style task manager. It is a Management system with automation and delegation across integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

Many items such as Categories and people, once set up in one project are not transferable as a template to the other projects and must be input manually. Importing and exporting these would save setup time. A simple example would be to have a Project template for Agile Methodology with Scrum/Sprint selections that sets effort, duration and estimates as task goals. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MeisterTask:

A Fast way to get projects under control and integrate with the best tools for automation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

Having a single list of my organizations tasks with due dates and responsibilities gives oversight and the ability to set and adapt priorities. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MeisterTask?

I like that it has the timer feature to track how much time I spend on projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

Sometimes the timer has been buggy. I also wish there an easier way to break down tasks into even smaller categories, and then also view those smaller broken down tasks more easily, since those are typically the tasks that will actually get checked off throughout the day. Having small things to check off would help to feel more productive. I should not I don't use the default columns "open", "in progress", and "done". I find I need to categorize my tasks so I use those columns for that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MeisterTask:

It takes a bit of experimentation to find an organization system that suits your personal flow. Try it with and without the default project categories of "open", "in progress", and "done". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps break tasks down into categories, and easily assign them to others. There is also room for commenting, which helps with collaborations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MeisterTask?

MeisterTask is visually appealing. I can invite an unlimited amount of members to join a project. I like that I can add checklists and due dates to each card on a project, similar to Trello. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I was hoping that MeisterTask would provide various ways to review a project because it is so visually appealing. It would be nice to see an overview of tasks for a project in a calendar mode, for example, or to see all tasks that belonged to a certain "tag" or category. Users who don't want to be limited to a kanban system may want to look elsewhere. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MeisterTask:

I recommend properly exploring your options. You won't know what features MeisterTask has available if you don't take the time to find out what works best for you and your team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

MeisterTask has helped me organize my projects and break them up into easy-to-manage tasks. I am better able to see the big picture and how to get there. I can keep checklists, notes to myself, and assignments all in one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MeisterTask?

I like how the free tier has lots of very useful options: multiple projects. It can handle fairly complicated projects with lots of cards. I'm a freelancer, so I just need to keep all my business projects straight and don't need to collaborate. Perfect for this purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

I wish that it accommodated code a little better as I have many cards that have different code snippets and there isn't a native way that I've found to keep those straight. So for using much code organization, you'd be better off with a tool like bitbucket's code snippets. I still find myself storing little bits of code in Meistertask when it's something directly related to a specific item in a specific project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering MeisterTask:

Try it out. It has a great free tier so you can put it to work. I tried it out and haven't looked back cause it's always doing what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use it every day to keep 20+ different projects and clients straight each one of those projects having multiple columns of tasks. It's great. I archive when done so finished projects aren't clogging up the display but there's a global search so I can access past projects if/when needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about MeisterTask?

I found MeisterTask whole looking for accessible project management software for our upcoming office move. It’s simple, fairly intuitive, and with the free version, all managers have the ability to add, delete, and modify tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about MeisterTask?

Although it’s *fairly* intuitive, there are some things that could be improved. I would like to be able to make a sub list for multiple step tasks that are grouped with other like tasks. The ability to check off without crossing off. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is MeisterTask solving and how is that benefiting you?

We needed an inexpensive, simple solution to organize tasks associated with moving a business with internal resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
