MeisterTask Reviews & Product Details - Page 7

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 like the customization and colors!

I've introduced this tool to my teammates at work and we use it to organize events, projects, and more. No more spread sheets, no more printing things out. We just pull this up and assign tasks!

You can also easily create multiple boards and attach files and more. I think there is a limit to free versions, but working for a nonprofit means we try and utilize as many features as we can.

I've tried multiple things, but this was my favorite and integrated with Microsoft Teams, too. Other apps may also have, but this was the one I've been using now for a while. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only downside is that some features are behind a paywall, but most of what you need can be found for free. But integration and a few other features may be worth getting once my team gets a bit of a budget. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If you're a list person, then you're going to love Miester Task! It has so much functionality, and helps you keep your projects organised in a beautifully visual way. Its super easy to use and very user intuitive. I would, and already have recommended this tool to my colleagues and clients alike!

There are various ways in which you can setup Miester Task to deal with your day to day tasks, or you can sync together with others to make a project. There is also a lot of different ways in which you make it your own, such as adding your own icons to projects, adding columns specifically related to tasks and much more.

The mobile app is also very slick, enabling you to track your tasks on the go, and updating if needs be. I would highly recommend using it with the app as it makes you look really efficient if you know what tasks you've got to do on the go!

Another great feature is that it can be accessed from anywhere, so if you've got to pull up some information it is always readily available for you to find more information. It's eye-catching, easy to use and packs a ton of features, which makes it my only tool of choice for project management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some more icons to be implemented making it easier to check things at a glance.

Improvements to the hours spent to pull a report or something similar

Very minor issues as its AWESOME! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MeisterTask is a software that not only gives me complete control over my projects, but also finds a way to make them more entertaining and stress-free. Its interface is what I would define as cute, and it has a very aesthetic visual to it that makes it possible for me to complete all my assignments in time. Because it’s cloud-hosted, it’s useful for all my coworkers that need to access information regarding a project and not have to ask someone else since we all can share the same files automatically.

Regarding the communication levels, MeisterTask provides me a way to keep communicated at all times with my team to be able to discuss everything, from tasks and projects to deadlines and ideas. One of the things I find very useful from this program are the Kanban boards, which can be customized and displayed in individual and organizational levels. It’s a smart way to view all the tasks that are completed and the ones that need to be done, and get daily reports to see how the organization is doing in general terms.

I can’t remember anything right now. MeisterTask is a software that is very helpful and I don’t think I’ve experienced any inconveniences with it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Keeps me on point to get stuff done. Plus great way to organize thoughts and ideas for projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I can't say there is much I dislike about Meister Task. There is a little learning curve to be able to take advantage of all the features. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As I look for a task list that provides UI to create a task very quickly and manage my task easily. I tested numbers of tools and finally stick on Meister Task. This is very fast, very easy, and can share your list to other team members Kanban UI And the best part is these features are available in the free version. The Pro version is something that will fulfill every need from task management apps. I'm using it for more than 6 months and it's awesome. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Should the option to delete tasks in bulk. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the simplicity of the user interface yet rich in features! Everything is on the tips of your fingers and I can have a good understanding of the big picture at a glance when reviewing the whole board. Also the dashboard is really helpful when you need to focus on specific tasks between multiple projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would have liked the free version to supprot multiple checlist on one card but I guess this is a just tradeoff. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that there are multiple categories and I can move a task from one section to another. I helps me keep track of where a task is in the workflow. Setting due dates and keeping track of everything I have going on is easy. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish there was more on the main dashboard. It seems very empty. I would like to keep more notes there. Though I do like that it complies all my tasks that are due soon. It would be nice if I could move my checklist over into its own column. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

MeisterTask helps organize multiple tasks both within your remit and across teams. It’s so easy to add, assign and share jobs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the platform will not let you reorganize tasks to make the most important ones appear first. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being able to assign tasks to individuals in my house hold and separate by progress and due date has made all the difference in the world. Being able to drag and drop tasks is great Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to run administrator reports to see projects due under each individual but on the same page Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
