Considered Both Products	Function Point Productivity Software Verified User Anonymous Chose Function Point Productivity Software We have not looked into other productivity software platforms, we found Function Point and were sold on the capabilities and customer service aspects from their team. Incentivized Helpful? Scott Millen Managing Director & Creative Principal Chose Function Point Productivity Software Function Point is a semi-integrated systems that plays well with QuickBooks as a standard. It is more difficult to implement than Freshbooks and Teamwork, but more robust and feature rich. Its interface is a decade or more behind these tools however. Function Point does much … Incentivized Helpful? Adrienne Mansfield Straub Director of Integrated Strategy Chose Function Point Productivity Software Workamajig was NOT a good fit, after over a year of back-end setup. FunctionFox didn't have the financial integration capabilities we needed, but we used it for years and were happy with the service and support. FunctionPoint brought together the 30,000-foot view of the … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Function Point Productivity Software We previously used Workamajig and have found Function Point to be superior in every way. Function Point is mobile friendly, web-based, does not use flash and is much more intuitive than Workamajig. We are able to much more easily get the data we need from the system and our … Incentivized Helpful? Julia Gould Account Executive / Digital Media Strategist Chose Function Point Productivity Software When looking into other companies, we found that many either offered not enough or too much for what we needed. While Function Point can be expensive and the onboarding is somewhat intensive, the overall payoff was worth it. Customer service was also EXCELLENT. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Function Point Productivity Software We were drawn to FP for the ease of estimate to task to billing process. Previous solutions were very manual moving between each of these steps. SmartSheet was a glorified Excel document for tracking time that simply allowed multiple users to edit in a single place. Harvest was … Incentivized Helpful?	Microsoft To Do Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do I choose Microsoft to do because is easier and is on the job email, but Clickup is more handful and Google Tasks its in my personal email, so its more convenient. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Microsoft To-Do simply put just does to-do lists very well. I don't want the visual components of software like Trello or ClickUp, and I had used Asana in previous roles and just found it to have too much going on. I also didn't like the notification system of Asana, constantly … Incentivized Helpful? Quratulain Habib, PMP Partner / Director / Head of Projects Chose Microsoft To Do I am a fan of to-do lists. Previously they were all pen and paper though, which is fine for chores but not so much when you consistently receive emails and chat messages with various tasks mentioned in there. To Do helps keeping track of them. Incentivized Helpful? TK Thomas Knight Product Manager Chose Microsoft To Do The main alternative that I've used is Todoist. Todoist is better at auto-detecting dates and tags, and I found it easier to assign items to other people using Todoist. I think the big benefit that Microsoft To Do has is that it is more integrated into existing Microsoft … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do The biggest selling point of Microsoft To Do is that it's free. We were able to jump in and start learning it without having to worry about making up for the cost of the software. We liked the idea of using all Microsoft products in hopes of some of our older employees being … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Its the only tool I use to manage my to dos and daily tasks Incentivized Helpful? AM Alejandro Montes Team Lead Chose Microsoft To Do I selected MS To-Do because is easy to use, has a pretty UI and in my organization is free to use. Amazing to schedule your work, meetings, to-do list, prioritize task, etc, but is not like other software like Evernote that have more functionalities like a diagram, … Incentivized Helpful? YL Yuen Liang Enrollment and Marketing Consultant Chose Microsoft To Do To be honest, I loved Wunderlist, and so just moved over to Microsoft To Do out of inertia. Also Trello is more Kanban than a to-do list, so not exactly what we needed. Todoist might be more what we need, but we were already using Wunderlist, so we didn't want to take the time … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do I prefer Microsoft To Do because of it's amazing app. It seamlessly integrates with mobile so if you're on the go or need to set a reminder, you can very easily take care of it. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Trello Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Compared to in-built apps from Microsoft or Apple, Wunderlist is far better. It is incredibly hard to collaborate on both Outlook, Gmail, or Apple calendar/reminders. I wouldn't suggest any of those for team projects. Additionally, Wunderlist allows me to separate your work and … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Wunderlist is overly simplistic and a bit outdated compared to competing tools. Trello and Microsoft To-Dos and Planner accomplish the same things better. Incentivized Helpful? Nicholas De Salvo Chief Executive Officer Chose Microsoft To Do I started using Wunderlist purely to keep track of my to-dos and organize my time around the general tasks I have to complete. Attempts I have made to extend Wunderlist into project management or other broader tasks have been largely unsuccessful because it feels like there … Incentivized Helpful? Joel Tanzi Business Owner Chose Microsoft To Do Both Trello and Remember the Milk offer their own value in managing tasks and projects. Wunderlist is the best simple task manager I've come across in that it focuses on the critical features you'd want in a task manager - great interface, ease of use, and accessible anywhere. … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Tried Google Tasks, and Microsoft To-Do (before its integration with Wunderlist) and they didn't quite serve the purpose we were looking for. Incentivized Helpful? Paul Weber Manager, Digital Media Services Chose Microsoft To Do Wunderlist was a good starting point, but we now use Todoist, and I definitely wouldn't look back. It is more complicated, but with that comes much more control than you get in Wunderlist - rather than simple search tags you have filters that can run across projects, human … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do I have tried numerous programs in the past, this one, in particular, has an easy interface and almost anyone can use it. One of the most recent programs we have tried is Microsoft To-Do and it does not even compare. We have created access databases specific to do this type of … Incentivized Helpful? Mark Cohen President Chose Microsoft To Do Any.do had a nicer interface but was not as easy to use as Wunderlist. Incentivized Helpful? Anna Jacobs Project Coordinator Chose Microsoft To Do It is more simple, direct, and easy to manage. Also, the price point is much less than most, if not all CRM's on the market. Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do While I have tried a number of other to-do lists, Wunderlist is easy to use and free. Most other to-do lists that I have tried I have used for a day or two and the have deleted and returned to Wunderlist. Part of it is that I am used to this tool, but I think it is also just … Incentivized Helpful? Tish Cator Office Manager Chose Microsoft To Do I think they merged or something—I don’t remember—but it was not as easy as this one was. We love that it is simple and easy. Incentivized Helpful?

Sarah Lightman Singer/Songwriter Chose Microsoft To Do Google drive is another helpful way to share to-do's with other parties and help share ideas. It can help share goal lists. I also use notes on my iPhone and it's been great too, but I really like Wunderlist because if I'm making a list and sharing it, it's pretty … Incentivized Helpful? Verified User Anonymous Chose Microsoft To Do Both products are pretty comparable. I prefer the Wunderlist app because it was just a bit easier for me to use. Incentivized Helpful? Anthony Zurica Owner Chose Microsoft To Do Wunderlist has a much simpler layout than the other software we have tried. Others are too complex when reminders and note-taking should not be this complex. Their homepage layouts are even more convoluting and unnecessary. Simpler is normally better for something like this. … Incentivized Helpful?

User Testimonials
	Function Point Productivity Software	Microsoft To Do
Likelihood to Recommend	FunctionPoint (FP) is great for agencies performing any type of task oriented work. If your workflow cannot be broken down into a set of outlined and easy to define tasks (even if the output of the task is abstract) then FunctionPoint would be difficult to implement. FunctionPoint is fantastic at defining scope in an engagement and forcing those who execute the work to stay within that scope if tasks are well-defined. If your work requires a lot of group collaboration and sharing of tasks, you may struggle with FunctionPoint's inability to share a single task simultaneously Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Wunderlist is a fantastic task management system, not the best project management system. For a long time, I tried to use Wunderlist to plan large events with multiple users and it wasn't as effective. But, once we simplified our desired outcome to accomplishing tasks that repeat or are unique to a given work-week, we had much more success. Now my assistant can manage her weekly tasks and give feedback through this app. I can also add tasks, assign them and see what is being accomplished Incentivized Brian Spatz Staff Pastor - Students Read full review
Pros	Financial analysis and reporting is one of the tool's primary differentiators Function Point has tremendous support and is very helpful when we have questions or issues Time tracking and project management is also very solid Estimating, statements of work and new project setup is very easy Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Smart due dates are the greatest thing about Wunderlist. I can tell it to "print past due reports on Monday" and then set that up as a repeating event. It's clutter free. When I'm creating or assigning tasks I like to have a distraction free area to think, and the simplicity of Wunderlist gives me that. The fact that I can look at it on my phone, on the web, and on my PC and it always looks the same is great. I can always tell what I'm doing b/c of their consistent design choices. Incentivized Jeremiah Alexander Systems Manager Read full review
Cons	Reporting- FP offers many pre-loaded reporting functions but sometimes all of this amounts to our job summaries and not specifics. Employee calendar/scheduling- FP does a lot for us and streamlines our processes but one of the main aspects it's lacking is the ability to use the system for employee management like PTO requests, Out of Office, Working Elsewhere, etc. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	Sub-tasks should have their own separate due dates The main list needs some more intuitive tools to sort the list in any way I choose Hovering over links should show a description of how to use it. For example, it would have been nice to know right away that double-clicking on a task is the way to open the details list. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Likelihood to Renew	No answers on this topic	I believe Wunderlist is the best to do management app on the planet. So far we are extremely satisfied with the performance. Incentivized Mohammed Anzil Founder and Chief Editor Read full review
Usability	No answers on this topic	The actual user interface and the way to navigate around the app is very intuitive and easy to learn/use which would make me give it a high ranking, but the syncing issues drop down my rating because there are times where you add an item to the list and then it just disappears. Then when you add it again the sync will happen and now you have duplicates. The other negative with the usability is adding extra information to an item, such as files or comments or assignments. You can do it but it's difficult to tell which items have this information from the main screen. You have to click on them individually. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Support Rating	The support team is one of the friendliest and most responsive I've ever worked with. They are hobbled, however, by a software implementation backlog, buggy software, and a pricing structure that will drive you away. Incentivized Scott Millen Managing Director & Creative Principal Read full review	I have not had an issue where I needed to reach out to Wunderlist, but I know their contact and online chat is easy to access and feel confident that they would be helpful. My only worry is Wunderlist is becoming Microsoft to-do in May 2020, and I believe the app will become worse after that. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Implementation Rating	No answers on this topic	Wunderlist giving 100% work satisfaction for me and my organization Incentivized Abdul Hakkim Founder Read full review
Alternatives Considered	We have not looked into other productivity software platforms, we found Function Point and were sold on the capabilities and customer service aspects from their team. Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review	It's a small tool compared to bigger project management software, but we found that they work perfectly together. It helps you declutter the larger PM tools, keep your smaller tasks in-line and make sure they get completed. When you're working in a creative agency, ideas and tasks are flying around, so having a tool like this that keeps you accountable and reminds you of your tasks is a must! Incentivized Verified User Anonymous Read full review
Return on Investment	Function Point helped us move from separate systems into one semi-integrated system, proving that integration was efficient and important. Function Point was so bug-riddled that it cost us days and weeks in lost productivity. Incentivized Scott Millen Managing Director & Creative Principal Read full review	We reduced the number of meetings of teams and companies by 5 times because now all participants have access to comments and know at what stage the project is located. Simple to use common to-do lists allow you to manage the projects of the group and give all its participants a clear idea of who is responsible for each task. There is no need to waste time explaining the business processes and responsibilities of team members Wunderlist for business stores all group correspondence together with tasks. This is convenient for all participants and for management because sometimes important moments are lost in other messengers or chats. Now you can do everything in one application.
