- Smart Task offers great variety of common and most useful Project Management tools

- Extended features like Time & Budget Trackings as well as detailed Task Analytics Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartTask?

- One of the suggestions for improvement would be the connectivity. The ST connectivity is great, but sometimes (ususally couple of times per month, I would say on average 1 to 3 times per month) the servers seem down and it takes some time to be able to reconnect (it ususally does not take long however, maybe 30 mins tops)

- I would love to have the ability to delete tags, as once created they are there to stay Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about SmartTask?

I like how tasks are displayed for everyone to view. It really holds my team accountable when everyone has complete visibility to each other's tasks. Automated check-ins are great too. I can schedule a notification to hit my team members to log and update their tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartTask?

Not much to dislike honestly. I think this is a great product if you don't have Microsoft 365, or if you're working with a third-party that doesn't have it. But the thing you'd miss is the reporting. This is a very simple platform, but if you're trying to manage a project just with this, it isn't going to work well. It's great for tasks and getting things done. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SmartTask:

If you're having a problem with people forgetting their tasks, or just plain under performing, take a look at SmartTask. It makes the life of a PM much easier. It's super easy to use, and you won't get a lot of complaints from your users. The reporting is also great for management and project sponsors. It gives everyone more of a picture where the project is at, and what needs to be completed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We needed full visibility with my team on tasks. This has saved about 10 minutes from my daily standups. Instead of reporting on tasks, we all review SmartTask prior to our meeting, and then we can ask questions if we have any. It saves time, and makes everyone accountable for their work. Great tool for a project manager. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SmartTask?

SmartTask is the best, most user-friendly, and easy-to-use software to manage your entire work process. A huge number of features at a pocket-friendly cost. SmartTask improved my productivity, Team management, and work management. I am very happy with the entire team of SmartTask. Especially my little friend Ishaan and Abrez from sales for understanding my requirements and delivering to me what exactly I need. Deepali for making my onboarding journey and setup process so easy as playing Super Mario. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SmartTask?

I enjoy how versatile and user-definable the software is. The capability to define when tasks need to reoccur whilst also being able to define when reminders need to be sent out is a key feature that I really love in SmartTask. Smart task excels in being able to have tasks under tasks whilst keeping each task and sub-task separate so they can all have their own respective comments and details.

Smart Task also has an incredible team behind the software. Looking aside any timezone differences, their customer service is impeccable. Often I have mentioned features that have been listened to by the support staff and then implemented the next day. This is one of their best features because even if the software lacks in a certain area, it is fixed based on user feedback incredibly well. It also makes it easier to communicate considering the SmartTask team, unlike other organizations, is always happy to instead have a conversation with you over a call rather than back and forth in a messenger. I found this to be incredibly useful as a support member of SmartTask was able to directly walk me through an issue i was having in a fraction of the time that talking through a messenger would be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartTask?

SmartTask although great software does have some downsides. The downsides of this software are though not comparable or significant enough to be worth not using this Software.

Firstly, I dislike the fact that all reminders are sent out to users on a SmartTask-defined template. I would love the ability to have access to the fluid data that you input with each task to then create your own HTML notification template in which you can display this data in whatever way you would like to. This I find to be restricted as I would love for notifications to be able to show different data for different tasks as sometimes in my usage a one fit all does not apply.

Secondly, this is not so much an issue but more of a personal preference for my own applicability, but when creating a task that reoccurs, it does not automatically reoccur after creation. For the task to be re-created in the future based on a reoccurrence variable, it must be marked as completed first. This means that we cannot plan a year ahead and always can only be 1 step ahead. If we were to create a task 1 year in the future it then would be 2 separate tasks. I have not communicated this dislike with the SmartTask support team yet, but I feel based on their previous actions that this may be solved by the time this review is live.

The last dislike I have that has also not been communicated is inside different project views. The maximum zoom-out for viewing tasks is by month. I would love to see a yearly view so i am able to see exactly when things need to be completed in the years ahead. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We as an organization are using SmartTask to manage properties and tasks that are required to take place within those properties. We use SmartTask to keep track as well as remind us of things relating to the property and when they are due. SmartTask's versatility in doing multiple things has been great for us to manage countless different properties with varying levels of tasks required for each, Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SmartTask?

Smarttask was very useful for us as we handle multiple short-duration projects with a lot of tasks assigned to a number of staff/contractor.

It ensures that we do not miss any tasks as thats critical in our field.

More than anything what I was amazed was the support I received to setup and get smarttask running.

The live chat is a lifesaver when you are stuck and have a doubt about how to proceed.

Had sessions with Dipali who helped clear clarifications I had on some setup issues.

Overall I am very pleased with smarttask and would recommend it to anyone who needs to manage projects/tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartTask?

No Issues as of now. I would recommend smart task to any one who is looking for a project/task management tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Project management, Portfolios (Handling multiple project views) , Handles checklists. Track effectively using custom fields. Track leads till they are won/lost, which helps us a lot in Marketing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SmartTask?

Can't wait to uncover all its other features, such as CRM, portfolio, advanced search and many more, to improve my productivity. OrganizingInitially I did not know how to use this tool. But now, no worries because I know the features very well, and their regular updates help me immensely. Your work and team will also determine how the tool will help you. All devices serve only as a medium, but how the agency will be a game-changer in how you leverage and use it! I just wanted to thank their support team and hope to grow together with the success of SmartTask. Hope this helps. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about SmartTask?

The support is amazing. There is a live chat and there is always someone available to help. They are friendly and go out of their way to explain things and find solutions for your specific and unique needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about SmartTask?

Timetracking is not available on mobile (yet). Sometimes the software does not log your changes on the server and you have to re-enter details to tasks, or sometimes entire tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering SmartTask:

SmartTask is a great tool that has combined many functions in one place. You have full control of how you apply the software, per project. This means you can set it up differently for different uses. If there is lack of a function, there is most always a workaround to achieve what you require and the support team is extremely clued up and helpful to make it happen. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Our team collaboration is made simple and we find everything in one place. Time tracking, project and task collaboration, allocation and dependency. We always know where we are and what needs to be done in order to get where we want to be. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We are able to track the breakdown of the bigger task, and it also helps in tracking the team's activities and the time they are taking to finish the tasks, and the time log they introduced recently helps us to track the work of the external interns/freelancers we hired.
