I just dont have to worry if I am doing the right thing at the righ ttime anymore. Set and forget and get on with your life. It provides real freedom Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

ONly features that I think it could benefit from which I sure you are workign on - like being able to set a day as a particular context (ie in office) and it only shows taks from that context or workspace. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing. I have been unable to use the platform and they will not engage me about an inaccurate charge that they made after I had appropriately cancelled my free trial. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I signed up for a free trial of Motion on Monday, 8/5/24, excited about potentially using the platform for my leadership team. However, after reviewing its features, I canceled the trial on Thursday, 8/8/24, when my IT team denied my request to integrate Motion with Microsoft Teams. Without this integration, the platform would not meet our needs. After canceling, I received a cancellation confirmation screen, though no email was sent to document this.

Despite my cancellation, on Monday, 8/12/24, I was charged $784.80 for a one-year subscription, including five enterprise licenses. I immediately contacted Motion’s customer support team about the error and followed up two additional times. However, I have yet to receive any response or acknowledgment of my messages.

I warned Motion in writing on 8/13/24 that I would be disputing the charge if they did not resolve the situation. Yet, I have still not heard back from anyone at the company. To make matters worse, when I log back into Motion, I am unable to manage or cancel the subscription—my account reflects that I am only a user with no admin rights and no access to make any changes.

I am extremely disappointed with the lack of response from Motion. The combination of this unauthorized charge, the inability to manage the account, and the total silence from their customer service team is alarming. I cannot recommend Motion based on this experience, and I strongly advise others to be cautious when dealing with this platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love using Motion because it automatically schedules my tasks around my existing meetings. It's so easy to connect multiple calendars and have Motion do the heavy lifting to figure out when I have time for my tasks. I also love their new project workflow templates and the ability to create a project workflow with AI. This app has seriously saved me so much time and the annoying effort of manually rearranging my tasks throughout the day and week. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can take a little bit of time to import all your tasks and set up projects in Motion to get the full benefit of the auto-scheduler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Motion helps me to keep all of the tasks I have at hand on my calendar. I'm not always able to get to everything but Motion will reschedule it for me. I'm also able to look at my calendar to see if there is just one more thing I can do in a day instead of mindlessly trying to figure out what to do or quitting early.

I don't have any real dislikes. It might be nice if it were a bit cheaper. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Motion daily, both at work at at home.

I love the fact that the developers are constantly upgrading or creating new ways of project and task management so that the program can be used on a personal level, or on a professional setting.

The tutorials as new features come in are a great help and easy to find again when I want them as a reference. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would love integration into my smartwatch or a way to switch between personal tasks and work tasks/projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Prioritizing, automation and the team use for projects which helps with our turnaround times..

Integrating our process with Motion has been super easy when compared to other programs we've tested and given up on. It is now used on a daily basis across our whole sales team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

nothing really, but perhaps it would be ideal if you could send out meeting invites from Motion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is good. When I do use it dilligently, it helps me plan tasks and stay ahead of schedule. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes I find it lacks certain features such as thorough integration with my Calender. Also, if/when I do not actively follow it and mark tasks as complete when they are finished, it's usefullness is rendered null. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that I can put in all my tasks and rank them. The more detail you give, the better the app does at prioritizing your tasks. As a digital advertising consultant with many clients, I have found so far that it really is helping me to stay organized and avoid forgetting important to dos.

Sometimes the app is too quick to move tasks around or if you want to put a task at a permanent time every day - suddenly it will jump back to moving that task to when it fits in your calendar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

If I don't complete a task, the task doesn't go away, but it gets re-prioritized on my calendar. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Nothing so far! I really appreciate how much more productive I'm becoming with Motion. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Motion keeps my tasks in front of me and helps arrange them around my schedule according to priority and projected time length. Really helpful for anyone who deals with lots of tasks and needs assistance with deciding what to do next! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My biggest complaint at the moment is that it constantly switches to the week view in the calendar instead of the daily view whenever the program refreshes, which is highly annoying. It's a known issue and they're promising to fix it, so we'll see.

Other than that, there's a bit of a learning curve to make it really effective and set it up, but there are some good videos to help with that, if you take the time to watch them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
