Considered Both Products
ElaBoard
Chose ElaBoard
ElaBoard stands out among other similar products due to its integrations with a range of services and applications, as well as its range of pricing options to suit different needs and budgets. Additionally, ElaBoard has a user-friendly interface that makes it easy to use, and …
Chose ElaBoard
Trello and ElaBoard share the feature of allowing users to organize and collaborate on projects, tasks, and events. Both allow users to create boards to store and organize information, as well as add notes, files, tags, and comments for each item. It offers us a series of …
Chose ElaBoard
Interface of Ela Board is better and user-friendly. It is dependent on the G Suite and may not be considered as an independent Whiteboard. Very limited tools available. Media tools are not available. Being a google product, the we were not confident on the security front. …
Chose ElaBoard
I think Miro offers more features and faster performances when it comes to those features, but ElaBoard is better for our size organization (small to mid). We don't necessarily need a lot of the offerings in Miro, so ElaBoard suited our budget better.
Chose ElaBoard
We went with ElaBoard because of the pricepoint, but I have used several other similar tools, and I think it's pretty comparable.
Chose ElaBoard
Honestly, I like using both products (Miro and ElaBoard). I think Elaboard is a little easier to use and implement. They are similar, but Elaboard is a little more user-friendly. I do wish Elaboard had the variety of templates Miro offers.
Chose ElaBoard
While I think Miro is a great platform, Elaboard offered better integration with the other software we use in the organization.
Todoist
Chose Todoist
Notion and ClickUp are pretty similar. I find them useful for an entire team, and for creating docs and things like that. For a basic task management system though, it's overkill and I would lose tasks constantly (not be able to find them). Trello is better for a flow with …
Chose Todoist
Compared to other tools, Todoist offers a stronger focus on completing tasks compared to more complex project systems. We chose a combination of Asana (projects) and Todoist (more detailed task tracking), mutual integration and synchronization works flawlessly. We have …
Chose Todoist
Todoist is better than Asana for the reason being that it focuses on task management rather than projects. If a task that is in Todoist suddenly becomes a project or more of a long term thing, then I will duplicate the task in Asana as to track it's progress, stay on time, etc.
Chose Todoist
No inline due date creation in To Do is a huge issue for me, hence why I still use Todoist
Chose Todoist
At one point, I used both Excel and Numbers to help keep track of my to do list… They were effective and so so far as it goes, but Todoist, in general prove to be the more superior program. The fact that I could easily color code and reassign tasks, and also the satisfaction of …
Chose Todoist
Ease of use, interoperability between platforms, and ease of integrating directly onto my calendar.
Chose Todoist
I've tried using project management software and other task management tools in the past but I have always come back to Todoist for its ease of use and simple yet effective functionality. It does a specific thing and does it really well without trying too hard or overextending …
Chose Todoist
Todoist is more focused on its goal than Google Keeps and is far more intuitive to use. For example, with just a click we see immediately that Todoist provides a way to distill tasks so that we only see what's immediately pertinent to us, via the Filters (which can be …
Chose Todoist
If I were to choose mutually exclusively, I would rather have Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager than all those 3 Google apps combined; but if Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager come out with an in-house calendar, then it would be super awesome.
Chose Todoist
[Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager] is significantly simpler and cheaper than most of the alternatives and doesn't complicate the management of tasks with a plethora of unnecessary features. While all the alternatives have strong feature sets, what Todoist does better than any …
Chose Todoist
Todoist: [To-Do List & Task Manager] is easier to use and makes it easier to assign owners and determine a due date. I feel more confident that I know where and how a task will be tracked when I use [Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager] versus any other similar software[.]
Chose Todoist
Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is much more simple with the ability to remove tasks from a single list rather than moving the item. The price point is very low and even the free features of often enough for my needs. The ability to quickly add items, have them synced to my …
Chose Todoist
Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is great for individual and personal use but isn't the best for team projects. It's too difficult to set up project tasking across multiple users with multiple tasks and multiple due dates.
Chose Todoist
Slack has a lot of options but was not what we needed. If we would go back to a more detailed tool we would use Ryver as that has more functions we would actually use. TickTick is great but somehow Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager worked out better for us, but that is a very …
Chose Todoist
Todoist: To-Do List & Talk Manager is so much better than Google Tasks for one simple reason: nested project folders. There's also the smart text recognition when entering tasks in Todoist that makes it so much easier.
Chose Todoist
I prefer Todoist over Microsoft Notes. Todoist offers reminders and such to make sure we are not forgetting to do something that might've slipped off our plate. Microsoft Notes is simply just a great way to take notes. Using both is great, but we mainly stick to Todoist because …
Chose Todoist
Todoist has a number of undeniable advantages over other solutions in its class:
  • It is much simpler than a Jira.
  • It is a little more comfortable than Trello.
Chose Todoist
Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is a more focused to-do app than monday.com or even Trello. It is simple yet flexible. However, Kanban power users will be underwhelmed by the limited functionality of the new board view. I hope that Doist will keep up the rapid pace of …
Chose Todoist
I like Todoist better than Asana, Slack, and Boardable, but it may be simply because I don't use Todoist as a shared SaaS. Airtable serves a different main function (project management database), but inherent in it is the possibility of a large shared to-do list. Both Asana and …
Chose Todoist
There are so many task managers out there that it comes down to business needs and user preference. I selected Todoist because, for our particular business setup, it checked all the boxes. It's flexible, it's not limited to one ecosystem, and the price is exceptional. It can be …
Chose Todoist
I found that Todoist was the easiest way to organize all my tasks in multiple ways. I could be organized by date, priority, create sub-tasks, larger "areas" to keep things sorted. Others have a lot of the same options but not as good. I also really like how the app works on …
Chose Todoist
Asana is more project oriented and I really did not use it much, We used Trello with our team and while I liked it for projects, it really did not work for me with tasks. I have used many task managers over the years, and none can stack up to Todoist: To-Do List & Task …

It is visually appealing and any user may fall in love with the interface & overall design of the application. It is light and fast. It is a breeze for the organizations with remote team so that they can colloborate and discuss different things on the same page. Drag and drop features add value and easy of use. Creating and discussing the points is easy with Colored Markets and drawings. It helps to make the boring meetings, more productive, effective and fun.

[Todoist: To-Do List & Task Manager is] fantastic for small teams or for personal use. Really simple and easy to use so requires very little in the way of onboarding and gets people engaged quickly in the tasks they need to complete. May not be perfect where more complex usage is required but integrates with other tools so time tracking and other add ons are more than possible through other tools.

Pros
  • I like that we can collaborate all in one place without the need for multiple different windows or applications of different products to view necessary documentation across teams.
  • I love how easy to use it is and it took hardly any work at all to set up.
  • The use of templates really helps speed things up, so we're not left trying to assemble things all on our own.

  • Being able to manage tasks across multiple devices and platforms is absolutely critical to me. If I am out of the office, the tasks will be on my phone. But they are also readily accessible on the web, on my desktop, and on my iPad.
  • There are several ways to organize your tasks... via Projects, Labels, Boards, Lists, etc. that allow users to use Todoist to fit their productivity workflow. I use them all and I have been delighted to see how Todoist has continued to improve and advance the Todoist application over the years.
  • I rely extensively on recurring tasks which allow me to never forget a birthday, monthly submission, chore at home, etc. Todoist offers many ways to manage recurring tasks, such as, "every week", "every April 8", "every fourth Thursday in November", etc.

Cons
  • They need more templates! There are only a few options and they aren't very creative or helpful. Need more variety.
  • Wish you could import and integrate with Miro boards.
  • Sometimes the drag and drop has glitches when using it.

  • Task Dependencies - Particularly for business projects, I'd love if we could make one team member's task dependent on another's where we could say "do this task 3 days after another one is complete"
  • No Two Factor Authentication - For me personally, I like to keep all my passwords secure and backed up by two-factor authentication. Just wish this was something Todoist offered!
  • Adding Start Date & End Date - Sometimes I set an end date farther in the future, but I'm not alerted that I need to be working on it before then to achieve that due date. If I look at the "Next 7 Days" section, I can see upcoming tasks, but ideally, I'd love to be able to set a start date and an end date so it could appear in today's tasks without needing to be completed today.

Usability
I gave ElaBoard an 8 rating for its overall usability because it provides an intuitive and user-friendly platform for teams to collaborate on a variety of tasks. The kindergarten management system was a great addition, as it allowed us to keep track of the kids inside the home or in the kindergarten. Additionally, the library of educational resources and games was also very useful. Furthermore, the platform is easy to set up and navigate, and the customer service team is responsive and helpful. Overall, ElaBoard makes it easy for teams to work together and efficiently get things done.

Excellent features and concept, simple implementation, but the software is not very clear in training new users and communicating features. The occasional unexplained crash or freeze is not handled gracefully by the desktop software, requiring either the user or tech support to manually restart.

Reliability and Availability

Alternatives Considered
Trello and ElaBoard share the feature of allowing users to organize and collaborate on projects, tasks, and events. Both allow users to create boards to store and organize information, as well as add notes, files, tags, and comments for each item. It offers us a series of advanced features, such as version control, change tracking and integration with other applications. The main difference between Trello and ElaBoard is that Trello focuses on collaboration while ElaBoard focuses primarily on project management and organization.

Todoist is more focused on its goal than Google Keeps and is far more intuitive to use. For example, with just a click we see immediately that Todoist provides a way to distill tasks so that we only see what's immediately pertinent to us, via the Filters (which can be customized and set to various priority levels). Also, Todoist's project board is something Google Keep doesn't even offer, it really can't even compete with Todoist simply because Todoist does so much more and was obviously designed with the business professional in mind.

Scalability
I gave ElaBoard a rating of 9 out of 10 for scalability because it is designed to be flexible and easily configurable, allowing organizations to quickly and easily adjust the system to their needs. Additionally, the product can be easily deployed in a variety of environments and scales to meet the needs of the organization. Furthermore, ElaBoard provides a wide range of features and tools that make it easy to integrate and manage data from multiple sources, as well as to create custom visualizations and reports. All of these features make ElaBoard an excellent choice for organizations looking for a highly scalable solution.
