    Streamline the work process and keep everything organized

    Date: Feb 15 2021
    Summary

    It has been possible to have a better efficiency with respect to that the employees fulfill their objectives in their determined term. MeisterTask has helped to optimize how the company works, thus being able to have more staff with high efficiency and also to maintain communication between us. This platform has been a participant in the changes by being able to successfully complete projects within the established deadlines, thus ensuring better performance and a structured organization, avoiding confusion or setbacks.

    Positive

    It has been very intuitive to work within this platform since it keeps the work team organized and attentive to the tasks that are assigned to them in order to fulfill them within the established deadline. I really like that it can be integrated with Slack in order to maintain a more direct communication between the entire work team and there is also clarity and transparency in the proposed objectives. I like that it can notify people by email that their task has not been completed or the task is about to be due. I can keep track of who has completed and who has not.

    Negative

    I have had a good experience using this platform to improve the organization of my work team by assigning specific tasks for Lara employee. However, I have noticed small problems such as sending comments that are not sent and I have to make several attempts, I have tried the internet connection and that is not the problem. Also sometimes the website tends to be a little slow making this not so effective for daily work, but this has not been an impediment to leave MeisterTask since they are small problems that sometimes arise.

    Organized platform that helps us to be more responsible.

    Date: Feb 19 2021
    Summary

    This platform has always allowed me to manage all my tasks, and it has also allowed me to complete my tasks thanks to group work. MeisterTask is the essential platform for any company considering implementing it, as it will improve productivity and allow employees to be more aware of the tasks that have been placed on them, along with the exact time when they must deliver it.

    Positive

    The administration of tasks is something completely important and that greatly influences our decision making and our group management for the development of activities. What I like the most about MeisterTask is that it not only works for managing scheduled and to-do tasks, but also allows me to perform tasks in a group. MeisterTask offers me a section in the panel where I can add the task that I will carry out, and I can also add the participants who will be participating in the task that will be carried out. MeisterTask is perfect for improving work productivity, as it allows me to finish my tasks faster thanks to the mutual support of colleagues.

    Negative

    I have never had any problems with MeisterTask.

    Multiple tasks that are organized with the exact capacity

    Date: Jul 02 2021
    Summary

    We have completed many tasks to improve the quality and fluidity of the work. We are extremely reassured that all activities are performed according to the project management planning. We have an extensive list of tasks that can be included in the target distribution. You will be able to have the workflow that you have desired so much with this program; it has been comprehensive in its features and has a lot of capacity to develop the project in the time you plan. It works easily.

    Positive

    Undoubtedly this software has given me an excellent performance to strengthen my project management capability. It has been essential to revive the quality of concrete tasks with a unique experience. I can add people who can participate in multiple projects.

    Negative

    I don't like the interface; it is a bit slow, it needs more fluidity and more customization in the functions. Also, some functions run slowly.

    Manage tasks simultaneously with colleagues.

    Date: Feb 25 2021
    Summary

    My overall experience with MeisterTask has been really good, I have been able to manage all kinds of tasks that we plan, and I have also had the ability to perform tasks online with the collaboration of my entire team. This platform has been totally easy to use, and I have quickly adapted to each of the functions. In addition, MeisterTask has an excellent notification system, which alerts us to the exact moment in which a new task has been placed, the alert system is very well optimized, and it also sends us very constant alerts to be more attentive to the exact date and time when the previously scheduled task is due. I am happy with the overall performance of MeisterTask, and we will continue to use it to manage all of our company jobs.

    Positive

    MeisterTask seems to me to be a very complete platform, capable of managing several tasks consecutively, and being able to connect several employees, to perform tasks as a group. One of the things I liked the most about MeisterTask was:

    1.- This platform has a fairly organized design, where the user can also decide the order of the sections as "pending tasks" or "completed tasks". In MeisterTask, the user is able to modify the entire panel design and make it more comfortable.
    2.- The progress of the tasks works in real time, as a percentage, which helps all employees to see if a task is about to be completed or how long one of their colleagues is missing to finish it.
    3.- MeisterTask has a section where users can place a specific task and integrate one of their colleagues, so that a good group work can be done and the task can be completed in less time.

    Negative

    I have no complaints about the services MeisterTask has provided me. This platform has been totally stable and consistent in task management, I have always been able to connect with my co-workers and we have been able to develop any planned task with the help of MeisterTask. I hope to continue having this very favorable experience, without any type of error in the operation of MeisterTask.

    Helps a lot in organizing tasks

    Date: Feb 23 2021
    Summary

    I went from a plane where disorder was prevailing within my company, there were jobs not done, incomplete tasks, uncontrolled schedules, etc. MeisterTask has been able to restore the order necessary to maintain a smooth workflow. The MeisterTask dashboard has improved our view of the things we need to get done to complete projects successfully.

    Positive

    Its interface catches my attention since it helps me to organize and order my workflow, I can also include my work colleagues to work collaboratively, thus being able to have more control over the schedules and assigned tasks. Its panel also gives me an overview of all the tasks in a single window so I can see or have a quick look at everything that needs to be done. At Meistertask I also have the ability to send files and chat with my work team about projects.

    Negative

    Website a bit slow, I don't have any other problems with this platform.

    Perfect control of all planned tasks.

    Date: Feb 17 2021
    Summary

    My overall experience with MeisterTask has been really good. For me, it is very important to keep a full control of all the details that a task has and what process will be used to complete it. MeisterTask has been a very good platform to help me get all those details, since it allows you to add notes to the tasks, in order to finish them faster. In addition, with MeisterTask I can carry out my tasks with the participation of my colleagues, thanks to the excellent panel it has, I can have group communication during the development of each task. This platform is amazing, it works in real time and allows me to know the real status of all the tasks in my company.

    Positive

    MeisterTask is too complete a platform for task administration and requirements management. What I like the most about MeisterTask is its UI, it is the best UI I have seen so far, for a task management service, because I can modify it, change the colors and move the sections of "pending tasks, tasks completed, tasks in progress ". Editing this UI is very good, as I can put these sections wherever I see fit, and I can have better comfort. I also like being able to see the progress of each task in real time, with MeisterTask I can see the percentage progress of my tasks in real time, and also the progress of the tasks that my work colleagues are doing.

    Negative

    I have never had any problems while using MeisterTask, I am very grateful to have this platform in my work sector because I have been able to keep a total control of all the tasks that are sent to us and I have also been able to know the exact date I must deliver them. MeisterTask has never been faulty, we have always managed our tasks with this platform smoothly and we have always been able to perform tasks as a group without any interruption.

    So important for my task management!

    Date: May 07 2019
    Summary

    I am so happy with this product. It has helped me sort out my ADHD brain into a clean, manageable list of priorities and tasks to be completed. I am so glad I found MeisterTask. It's truly life changing!

    Positive

    As an independent contractor I am so grateful they have a version of this I am able to use on my own. So many products don't allow you to even try, and it's too expensive for one person. But I have been using the free version for a couple of years just by myself and it is life-changing!

    Easy to use. Love the UI. The due dates, the prioritization, the visually appealing design and layout. Basically everything about it is fantastic. I have tried many other task management services, but NOTHING COMPARES to MEISTERTASK.

    Negative

    If I didn't like it, I wouldn't use it :) Truly, it's fantastic.

    Lean and Mean

    Date: Jun 18 2019
    Summary

    For my needs this has timetracking, due dates and simple project/client navigation. Suits me perfectly.

    Positive

    I've tried out and worked in a lot of software and this is the best I've worked with and as a freelancer this is the one I've stuck with the longest and plan to continue to use it. I'm really happy with the level of projects that can be created and a timetracker. I use this just for myself and know I could add on other members if I want to but I don't think I need to. I'm really happy with it and I can't see a reason to move on.

    Negative

    I've been using it for about a year and I don't see anything that nags at me.

    Date: May 12 2019
    Summary

    Very nice tool I like a lot! Using it almost daily now.

    Positive

    It is flexible to set up according your needs. It has the management of breaking things down already built in (relations). It's intuitively usable. I can use it on PC and iPhone.

    Negative

    I'm missing the capability to paste pictures into a task's notes and it will get automatically saved as attachment. And I'm missing to move around between the sections by clicking and dragging.
    ...and what I really hate: hidden scroll bars! Please show them! At least at the bottom of the client area.
