Project Management Software That's Great, But Also Glitchy AF
Pros
- Taskworld is really good for managing projects with many moving parts. The column-task setup lets you organize things visually very well, and the drag-and-drop functionality is great.
- Chat is set up well and offers all the functions you might want. Direct messaging, team messages, locked/private channels, custom channels, etc.
- Each task can live in multiple locations and be assigned to multiple people all at the same time. Great for teams with many moving parts.
Cons
- Taskworld crashed ALL THE TIME. It was so frustrating. You'd notice certain functions not working (like adding an additional location or reassigning a task) and then the whole thing would go down. We lost at least 3 individual business days due to Taskworld acting up.
- We often requested features and bug fixes that took forever to be resolved. Taskworld staff was responsive, but issues took too long to resolve. As a small example, the GIF functionality of chat and task communication was down for weeks with no explanation.
- Small glitches were frequent and obnoxious. We had to clear caches all the time in hopes that we'd be able to use Taskworld the way it was intended. There were many times employees didn't get notified of their "@ mentions" or weren't seeing notifications at all. It was a nightmare of death by a thousand cuts.
Return on Investment
- This would be really hard to measure from an employee standpoint. Not sure!

TaskWorld for all your task management needs!
Pros
- Task Management - It's super easy to track progress on Taskworld. If your team keeps up with it, you'll never wonder where in the project someone is, because it's marked.
- Project checklists - Having these to organize out smaller portions of the tasks makes everything so much easier and helps keep track of progress.
Cons
- UI - If you're coming from another project management software, the UI may seem a bit complex at first. It takes some getting used to, but it's worth it.
- External app integration - If your team likes to integrate your project management software with other tools, you may find yourself a bit limited.
Return on Investment
- Efficient task assigning and management
- No stories left behind! It's too easy to track what's been worked on.
