Considered Both Products
Any.do
Chose Any.do
Any.do is very easy to use, other application has similar experience, Asana has much more features that Any.do but it is meant for project management where as Any.do is the perfect reminder application. Other apps like Apple reminders, to do list also do the same but their user …
Chose Any.do
This app is very easy to use and has a very user-friendly interface. I am using it on my iPhone so I can use it on the go. It has a list view as well as a calendar view so you can choose according to your convenience. I can use it for personal and professional tasks and it …
Chose Any.do
Any.do has a key selling point for me and is the AI integration to read through your tasks and suggest calendar events, also user interface in the mobile app is quite friendly and comfortable for users. I like that it has a different option for grocery lists, it helps me …
Chose Any.do
As opposed to OmniFocus, which is a behemoth when it comes to task apps, Any.do is much simpler and in return, makes it easier to jump in and out of it as needed. This enables me to check things off quickly, or add something before I forget it without having to jump into a …
Chose Any.do
While they are certainly not a "one or the other" tool, Any.do is considerably cheaper and far less of a heavy lift when it comes to task management. Basecamp is more of an enterprise project management tool that does a lot more, if that's what you need. For task management and …
Chose Any.do
The syncing of Any.do is better and you can use it in more than one device at the same time, considering that you use the free version.The support of Any.do, including the community, is great. When you edit an item or note in Any.do, the font type does not change among devices …
Chose Any.do
Any.do is simple and easy to use. I'm huge fan of Wunderlist, but now a fan of Any.do too.
Stackby
Chose Stackby
Airtable is the "gold standard" when it comes to relational databases. SmartSuite is the "gold standard" when it comes to how nice a relational database can look. Stackby takes a cue from Airtable in how it delivers and interacts with data, and it offers a better cost …
Chose Stackby
Stackby was the best ROI compared to its competitors
Chose Stackby
As an Airtable user, I was glad to see an available alternative. Stackby has ticked the boxes and exceeded my expectations. They also continue to grow and improve the service, making it even more appealing and valuable. Support has also been responsive and consistent. I would …
Chose Stackby
The use case and feature set against airtable is equivalent if not better and the offer of LTD access as well as specific add-ons make Stackby the better choice every time.
Chose Stackby
We have been using Airtable so often but once your team grows it costs a lot of money, to be honest. Stackby could be a great fit for our team but of course, Airtable is a more mature tool. I'm really hoping that Stackby reaches the level of Airtable at some point one day. For …
Chose Stackby
I have also tried Ora.Pm.

Infinity has better graphical interface, but nowhere near as many features and the UI isn't as effective (i.e, moving around with keys).
Chose Stackby
Airtable - better all round than Stackby but way more expensive (actually not all round - Stackby you can actually backup unlike Airtable)

Infinity - bought this and wished we hadn't. Its data structures and terminology are super-confusing and it's really hard to set up
Chose Stackby
This is a legitimate competitor to Airtable! They are well on their way to meeting the feature set offered by this much bigger and older company. Stackby has done some amazing things with this platform, and I hope they continue their great work to keep improving and already …
Chose Stackby
I am a paying user of both Stackby and Airtable. I use both both as there are some shortcomings of both.

Airtable is more developed and useful on both desktop and mobile, whereas Stackby is not. Airtable has useful internal automations, dashboards and a huge online community, …
Chose Stackby
Airtable is more mature than Stackby and has more add-ons. I expect Stackby to continue updating the app so that will close the gap.
Chose Stackby
We chose Stackby over Airtable primarily because Airtable does not currently have the option to pre-fill default data in a cell. This feature alone is a huge time saver and allows us to skip cells that contain necessary, but redundant data.

Likelihood to Recommend
Any.do is well suited for anyone who needs help managing tasks and reminders for projects at work or at home. It's very easy to use and can be shared with others for increased collaboration. It will always run up against its greatest competition - pen to paper. It is less appropriate where specific project management tools are being used that Any.do doesn't integrate with.

Cons
  • Communication with users. I stopped using the app for a while due to the lack of a desktop app, and I didn't know there was a desktop app!
Read full review
  • Implement the same views available on desktop into the mobile app
  • Internal automations (like Airtable)
  • Ability to implement and display info as a dashboard (like Airtable)
  • Polish up the formatting of formulas, inputting them causes user frustration due to the formula input cursor jumping around
  • Better intelligence and ease of inputting data in bulk i.e have the fields automatically identify what data is being input and format appropriately (like Airtable does)

Usability
It is very very intuitive, I have been using the app since it was launched, started using it as a personal reminder, and then also recommended within the organization. The experience is very similar to writing on a pad and then when complete crossing it off. I love it's user experience.

Stackby is overall pretty easy to use, especially if you're used to something like Airtable or SmartSuite. Some of the pages seem like near exact clones (though they put their own creative spin on things). I'd prefer a slighty fresher interface (like SmartSuite), but I'm willing to sacrifice that for the better price and great customer service.

Support Rating
I have not needed to use support for Any.do at this point. Because the user interface is very easy to use, most problems can be figured out on your own. That said, I have been told that the support is efficient and helpful when needed. Answers are given in quick order.

Extremely responsive, helpful, and friendly support (unlike many other SAAS teams out there).

This app is very easy to use and has a very user-friendly interface. I am using it on my iPhone so I can use it on the go. It has a list view as well as a calendar view so you can choose according to your convenience. I can use it for personal and professional tasks and it keeps me organised.

I have also tried Ora.Pm. Infinity has better graphical interface, but nowhere near as many features and the UI isn't as effective (i.e, moving around with keys). Grist has a much more technical interface and it comes from being more of a database/interactive spreadsheet vs Stackby. Grist has much more functionality in terms of formulas, but is much harder to learn to use and less other functionalities. Ora.PM is more of a test at a task management app, and doesn't compare - Stackby is much better.
