Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Remember the Milk is used to manage all tasks, both personal and professional, keep notes related to those tasks, and set reminders. We can add tasks directly from Gmail without leaving the inbox at all. The added tasks can include a link back to the original email, and of course, you can add the due date, add to an appropriate list and tag the task. A really useful time-saver.

Pros

  • Mobile App
  • Quickly enter new tasks
  • Reminders

Cons

  • More native project management features - replace our project management apps

Return on Investment

  • Saved multiple hours each week per user

Lots of features for this task manager; great if you need them, but might be overwhelming if you don't.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Remember the Milk is a great way to track personal and professional tasks, as well as lists. It is a great brain dumping tool and is helpful for when I want to remember many different things, maybe even across multiple projects. I like how there is a mobile app as well, so I can add to it on the go.

Pros

  • Mobile app
  • Assign tasks for others
  • Lists as well as tasks

Cons

  • Some features locked behind a pro account
  • Maybe be a lot of features for someone who just wants a simple task app
  • Sometimes easy to confuse task item with list items

Return on Investment

  • Allows me to see my tasks at a glance easier and stay on top of things
  • Lets me manage my personal and professional lists easier
  • Allows me to share or delegate tasks to others when necessary
