Comparison of Project Management features of Product A and Product B
Service AutoPilot is a fantastic system for client service tracking and scheduling. While there are a few features and details I would personally like to see changed or added, the ultimate purpose of the system is well executed, fairly simple to use, and easy to understand. My recommendation would be to add more specific details such as canceled or closed clients and closed/canceled service history on active clients to remain permanently.
There have been lots of times when we need to add a new habit into our daily work routines, and having the option to do so in the To-Doist app on the very first screen is incredibly helpful. It's a good reminder, and I believe that professionals who truly appreciate and properly value the implementation of good habits would be very grateful for this feature. It's also a time saver because you don't have to manually type it in every day/week / etc.
when closing/canceling a service completely from a clients account it would be nice to still have the history to see what they had done in the past incase they change their mind later and wish to continue the service
cancel/closed client historys would also be nice as if someone sold their home, it would be nice to be able to see what was done on that property prior to inform new owners, etc.
The Todoist application now works almost identically across all platforms. There is a minor improvement that I would like to see on iOS and that is the ability to show task count by custom filter.
In Board view, I want to be able to easily add sub-tasks to a parent task.
Besides those two minor improvements, I am extremely happy with the application.
Service Autopilot has a versatile set of features that we use across all facets of our business. We use it for history tracking on clients properties, notes specific to the service and/or the client, as well as pricing details
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.
I've used Todoist for about three years now and I haven't needed to contact support, which I'm considering a 10 out of 10. Honestly, their platform is so easy to use that I never had to look up a knowledge base or forum to be able to do what I wanted in Todoist. So I'm not sure what their support system looks like or how it works, but I do know that if I haven't needed support, that's also a good sign!
We use the two systems collaboratively. Both systems offer different features which we use bits and pieces of what we need from each to make the system work for our needs.
[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 of them is manage tasks, in theory the central point of them all.
Location-based reminders ensured that my staff didn't miss things when they went onsite with a customer. This has led to renewals on a regular basis.
Sharing of task visibility for managers with their direct reports has enhanced 1-on-1 meetings and ensured that field coaches kept focused
The cost of Todoist vs. the value it creates is a huge selling point for the software. For the price per user, I've found nothing that even comes close!
