The problem with Slack and the like is that it's communication based, not work based.
The problem with Todoist and Wunderlist and the like is that it's work based, not communication based.
Slack is awesome at communicating. But it has no checklist, no todo, no collaboration tools that fulfill most needs. They're all half baked.
Wunderlist has checklists and todos and can be used to track collaboration efforts by linking Google Docs or Sheets to a task for example, but communication is still horrible. It's nowhere close to being a main communications channel.
So most end up using a combination of apps.
But this is also one of the greatest detriments to productivity. Having to juggle apps.
- tertius 9y agoIt looks like this is about a new app from the Todoist guys, not Todoist specifically. Disclaimer: I love and use Todoist religiously and agree that it's not great at collaboration.
- ferentchak 9y agoI was building an app that worked like this on top of Flowdock when I used to work for Rally. Fully integrated work management communication application. If you have a small collaborative team it was awesomely powerful we had used it on the team that built it for about 6 months before the project got cut. If someone wants a tester or feedback on something they are building I'd love to help. I badly miss that thing :(
