We pick solutions that are practical, purposeful, and can offer real value for the specific use case or business context we\u2019re covering \u2014 while also being justified in their pricing. Our methodology is transparent, clear, and available to everyone:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br><a href=\"https:\/\/cake.com\/our-software-review-methodology\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Learn more about our review methodology here \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"why-switch-from-any-do\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why switch from Any.do?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While Any.do is pretty useful for both personal notes and project management, it isn\u2019t without fault. You should think about switching if you\u2019re bothered by its:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Limited and unclear free plan<\/strong> \u2014&nbsp;Any.do\u2019s free plan is designed for individuals, which simply means you can\u2019t invite any collaborators. The pricing page and \u201c<em>Pricing and plans explained<\/em>\u201d page also don\u2019t offer a thorough explanation of the features you get access to in the free plan. I didn\u2019t even know I was on an automatic free trial until it simply expired, so I just lost all of my board data (and was forced to pay for a subscription to get it back).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Poor reporting options <\/strong>\u2014 Any.do\u2019s reports are severely lacking. The only insight you can get is a list of all completed tasks, with no option to group completed tasks by any field. Plus, it\u2019d be even more useful to get insight on <em>current<\/em> tasks, not completed ones.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Sparse collaboration options<\/strong> \u2014 The free plan only offers 1 collaborator, but it doesn\u2019t really get better if you upgrade. The Premium plan (next in line) still only offers 1 collaborator, the Family plan gives you 4, and only in the Teams plan do you get unlimited users. So, collaboration in Any.do is virtually non-existent until you fully upgrade.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Inability to support complex projects<\/strong> \u2014 Any.do\u2019s limitations, especially on lower-tier plans, can\u2019t sustain more complex projects due to its lack of reports, customization options for views, or interchangeable views on my tasks. These limits are frustrating when running multiple projects (or even just a single complex project), as you don\u2019t get any customizability in the way you approach work management.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>So, if any of these limitations annoyed you as much as they annoyed me, it might be time for a change. But, which tool is the best one to switch to from Any.do?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One that has a <strong>better free plan, collaboration, reporting, and is better-suited for complex projects.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I picked out and tested the 8 best tools that fit most, if not all, of these criteria.

This variety helps you plan your time with more flexibility and lets you easily coordinate schedules with your team.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Countdown<\/strong> \u2014 Countdown is a good tool for project planning because it allows you to strategize around important dates for your project. You can add custom dates that you want to keep track of, so you get a nice view of holidays, the end of project date, deadlines for <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/project-management\/deliverable-in-project-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">deliverables<\/a>, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"670\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-TickTicks-calendar-view-to-track-the-daily-agenda.png\" alt=\"Calendar view in TickTick\" class=\"wp-image-15285\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-TickTicks-calendar-view-to-track-the-daily-agenda.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-TickTicks-calendar-view-to-track-the-daily-agenda-537x300.png 537w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-TickTicks-calendar-view-to-track-the-daily-agenda-1110x620.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-TickTicks-calendar-view-to-track-the-daily-agenda-768x429.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-TickTicks-calendar-view-to-track-the-daily-agenda-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Using TickTick&#8217;s calendar view to track your daily agenda<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>But, TickTick runs into one issue that Any.do also has \u2014 a limited and unclear free plan. It only allows 2 collaborators (including you), and doesn\u2019t include the Calendar view, timeline field, or even board filters. Worst of all, there\u2019s no pricing table \u2014 so I can\u2019t easily compare the features I get in each plan, and have to dig around the website to get any clarity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even in the premium plan, you only get 30 collaborators. This is alright for project planning, but it\u2019s not as useful for actual work management with large teams. This means you\u2019ll probably end up planning in TickTick and using a different PM tool later on.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-ticktick\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in TickTick?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>TickTick recently improved their Pomodoro tracker feature, letting you manually add more focus time to your Pomodoro tracker, or stop it early, for more accurate results.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Countdown also received more customization options. You can now change how the countdown is displayed by years, months, weeks, days, as \u201cXX days until XX\u201d, and more. This lets you convert hard to calculate countdowns like \u201cin 70 days\u201d to \u201cin 3 months and 9 days\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Available for: <\/strong>Web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, Linux, PadOS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Plan<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Pricing<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$0, for 2 users<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Premium<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$3\/user\/month*&nbsp;<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*billed annually<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"3-todoist-best-for-work-communication\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#3 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.todoist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Todoist<\/a> \u2014 best for work communication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Todoist offers a blend of note taking and work management that lets you easily organize your team\u2019s tasks along with your own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"why-choose-todoist\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why choose Todoist?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Todoist is a solid option for project managers that need multiple options to collaborate with their team while taking notes (even when on the go).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8211; Multiple collaboration options<br>&#8211; Search board feature<br>&#8211; 100+ integrations in the free plan<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8211; Limited free plan<br>&#8211; No dedicated space for file sharing<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Todoist is another app whose UI reminds me more of a classic to-do list app. This makes it easy to navigate and relatively intuitive to use.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Compared to Any.do, however, Todoist offers much better collaboration options.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Each task has a comment thread where you can keep communication with your team organized.

Or add them through integrations, like sharing your schedule through Google Calendar.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s also a board-wide comment thread, so instead of just commenting on specific tasks, you can share and discuss information about the whole project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, what I like most about Todoist\u2019s comments is that you can add them over email. Enabling this option gives you an email address for that specific comment thread, and any email you send to it gets added as a new comment on that thread. This is great for users who need to manage projects on the go or use email frequently (talking with clients, stakeholders, etc.).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"988\" height=\"1200\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-board-wide-comment-thread-in-Todoist.png\" alt=\"Comment thread in Todoist\" class=\"wp-image-15286\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-board-wide-comment-thread-in-Todoist.png 988w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-board-wide-comment-thread-in-Todoist-247x300.png 247w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-board-wide-comment-thread-in-Todoist-843x1024.png 843w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-board-wide-comment-thread-in-Todoist-768x933.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-board-wide-comment-thread-in-Todoist-10x12.png 10w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 988px) 100vw, 988px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Using the board-wide comment thread in Todoist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Todoist\u2019s advantages over Any.do go even further, with features like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>The upcoming tab<\/strong> \u2014 This view functions as a Kanban board, but tasks are grouped by deadlines.

So, you avoid wasting time trying to find a task or even trying to remember its name.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>100+ integrations<\/strong> \u2014 Todoist offers 100+ integrations right in the free plan. These include calendar apps like Google Calendar, messaging apps like Teams and Slack, productivity tracking like Beeminder, etc. If your team has a tool they use frequently, they\u2019ll probably find it in this list.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"598\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Todoists-integrations-page.png\" alt=\"Todoist's integrations page\" class=\"wp-image-15287\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Todoists-integrations-page.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Todoists-integrations-page-602x300.png 602w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Todoists-integrations-page-1110x553.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Todoists-integrations-page-768x383.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Todoists-integrations-page-18x9.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Todoist&#8217;s integrations page<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Like most other tools, the biggest issue I had with Todoist was its free plan. For starters, it only allows 5 collaborators, but it also limits the deadline field, calendar view, and shared team workspaces. Like with TickTick, you only get more collaborators on the highest-tier paid plan \u2014 but Todoist still limits this number to 500.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But I was more bothered by the missing features \u2014 like the lack of a dedicated file sharing tab. The only way to share files is by sending them through comments, so this is a big dent in Todoist\u2019s otherwise good collaboration capabilities. This way, the more comments you send, the harder it is to find past files.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p><strong>\ud83d\udca1Plaky pro tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If Todoist also isn\u2019t your cup of tea, and these limitations bothered you as well, check out some great Todoist alternatives here:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/todoist-alternatives\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Top 10 Todoist Alternatives for Daily Task Management in 2025<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-todoist\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in Todoist?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Todoist most recently published a new feature in beta \u2014 Ramble, which lets you add tasks by simply speaking, or more accurately, rambling.

But, I do like how you can toggle these fields from appearing on the card cover (I just wish I could do this for all fields).<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"676\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Trellos-simple-and-neat-UI.png\" alt=\"Trello's UI\" class=\"wp-image-15288\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Trellos-simple-and-neat-UI.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Trellos-simple-and-neat-UI-533x300.png 533w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Trellos-simple-and-neat-UI-1110x625.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Trellos-simple-and-neat-UI-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Trellos-simple-and-neat-UI-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Trello\u2019s neat and simple UI<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Even with its simplicity, Trello has plenty of options that overshadow Any.do, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Collaboration<\/strong> \u2014 Just like the rest of the app, Trello\u2019s collaboration is simple, but effective. You can comment with various options (images, @mentions, code, quotes) and have a separate files field. I especially like that added files can become a card cover, so you can let someone know files are on the card, as soon as they load the board.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Planner and inbox<\/strong> \u2014 These features add a small \u201cnote-taking\u201d feel to Trello, which Any.do users will find welcome. With the inbox, you can add tasks on the go, as you think of them, by simply sending an email and then sorting them into your board of choice later. Planner lets you connect a calendar app, so you can organize your schedule easily.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Power-Ups<\/strong> \u2014 Since Trello\u2019s functionality is simple, it allows users to add more complex features as they need them through Power-Ups. If you need time tracking, for example, you can add the <a href=\"https:\/\/clockify.me\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Clockify<\/a> integration, and avoid looking for a tool that has built-in time tracking, along with a bunch of other overbearing features you don\u2019t need.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"796\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-Power-Ups-to-a-Trello-baord.png\" alt=\"Trello's Power-Ups\" class=\"wp-image-15289\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-Power-Ups-to-a-Trello-baord.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-Power-Ups-to-a-Trello-baord-452x300.png 452w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-Power-Ups-to-a-Trello-baord-1110x736.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-Power-Ups-to-a-Trello-baord-768x509.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-Power-Ups-to-a-Trello-baord-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Adding Power-Ups to a Trello board<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>However, I\u2019ve found that Trello\u2019s focus on Kanban view results in one key fault \u2014 all other views in the app are rudimentary, and honestly, poorly developed. The timeline and calendar view have no settings and can\u2019t be customized, which is especially disappointing considering the Kanban view\u2019s visual personalization is very detailed. I\u2019d say it\u2019s a shame the timeline and calendar are not available in the free plan, but I probably wouldn\u2019t use them anyway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another feature I dislike is Trello\u2019s reports \u2014 yes, they\u2019re better than Any.do\u2019s reports, but that\u2019s not a high bar to cross. You can only get task counts based on members, dates, lists, and labels. Other than this, charts can\u2019t be customized or re-colored. And, you don\u2019t even get access to them in the free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-trello\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in Trello?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Trello\u2019s last update I could find was earlier this year, and it includes the inbox and planner features we talked about earlier. With them, Trello brought a new layer of organization in its app.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also added an AI feature in Trello, which can perform various actions, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Help you write comments,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Parse through forwarded messages from Slack, Teams, email, etc., or<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Generate descriptions and brainstorm tasks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Available for: <\/strong>Web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Plan<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/plaky\/trello-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Pricing<\/strong><\/a><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$0, for up to 10 users<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Standard<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$5\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Premium<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$10\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Enterprise<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$17.5\/user\/month* (however, this price varies by user count)<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*billed annually<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n<div class=\"container plaky-gradient-landing-1 pt-5 ps-lg-5 z-0 mb-5  \" >\n    <div class=\"d-flex flex-column flex-lg-row align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-between gap-1 gap-lg-5\">\n        <div class=\"banner-text text-center text-lg-start text-white\">\n            <span class=\"translation-block lh-1 fs-16 text-white\">\n                Feeling limited?            <\/span>\n            <p class=\"translation-block mw-300 fs-12 mb-2\">Plaky by CAKE.com offers more in its free plan than any other task management app!<\/p>\n            <div class=\"cta-btns pt-4 d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-start gap-4 mb-4 mb-lg-0\">\n                <a aria-label=\"Sign up\" href=\"https:\/\/app.plaky.com\/signup\" class=\"btn rounded py-1 px-2 fs-12 btn-light\">\n                    Sign up                <\/a>\n                                <a aria-label=\"Learn more\" class=\"text-white px-2 fs-12\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/compare\/trello-alternative\">\n                    Learn more                <\/a>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <picture>\n            <source srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/landing-1@2x.png 2x\" alt=\"Plaky logo\" media=\"(min-width: 998px)\" \/>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"max-w-350 img-fluid \" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/landing-1.png\" alt=\"Plaky screenshot\" \/>\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n    \n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"5-clickup-best-for-project-reporting\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#5 <a href=\"https:\/\/clickup.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ClickUp<\/a> \u2014 best for project reporting<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>ClickUp is a highly customizable project management tool that\u2019s a viable option for complex projects or managers who need to run multiple projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"why-choose-clickup\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why choose ClickUp?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ClickUp\u2019s reports are a good improvement over Any.do\u2019s reports \u2014 with detailed customization options and plenty of different reports.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8211; Detailed reporting<br>&#8211; Various views<br>&#8211; Comprehensive customization<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8211; Difficult to use<br>&#8211; Limited free plan<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As soon as you log into ClickUp, you notice how detailed and comprehensive the app is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With its extensive set of features, you can easily run large or multiple projects. But if you\u2019re in that position, you\u2019ll need detailed insight into the projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That\u2019s when ClickUp\u2019s various reporting options come in handy. You can access them in the Dashboard view, where you get various reporting cards, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Charts,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Calculations,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Docs,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Portfolios,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Notes, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, you can resize and rearrange each of these cards until you get an overview you like. You can also change the type of chart you add in ClickUp, which includes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Pie,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bar,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Line,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Battery, and more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Then, you can customize each chart by measures, groups, and coloring \u2014 plus, you can filter data sources, to make sure your charts don\u2019t pick up unnecessary or irrelevant data.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"676\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-dashboard-view-in-ClickUp.png\" alt=\"Dashboard view in ClickUp\" class=\"wp-image-15290\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-dashboard-view-in-ClickUp.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-dashboard-view-in-ClickUp-533x300.png 533w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-dashboard-view-in-ClickUp-1110x625.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-dashboard-view-in-ClickUp-768x433.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-the-dashboard-view-in-ClickUp-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Using the dashboard view in ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>However, ClickUp\u2019s large number of options doesn\u2019t end with reports \u2014 you can also get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Custom fields<\/strong> \u2014 Choose from a <em>wide<\/em> array of custom fields to add to your ClickUp board.

Like with the fields, some of the views I find useful (workload and Gantt views), but some just feel incomplete or underdeveloped (e.g., team or mind map view).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Subtasks <\/strong>\u2014 Subtasks in ClickUp are a good way to divide your tasks into more manageable chunks, while keeping everything organized. I like that the subtasks aren\u2019t a simple checklist, but instead have their own fields and field values.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"700\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-custom-fields-to-your-list-in-ClickUp.png\" alt=\"Custom fields in ClickUp\" class=\"wp-image-15291\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-custom-fields-to-your-list-in-ClickUp.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-custom-fields-to-your-list-in-ClickUp-514x300.png 514w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-custom-fields-to-your-list-in-ClickUp-1110x648.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-custom-fields-to-your-list-in-ClickUp-768x448.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Adding-custom-fields-to-your-list-in-ClickUp-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Adding custom fields to your list in ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>With this many customization options, however, you\u2019ll quickly realize how much time it takes to create and personalize a ClickUp board. The sheer amount of options puts you in an indecision loop \u2014 when you have the ability to create a \u201cperfect\u201d option, it\u2019s hard to figure out which option <em>is actually perfect.<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I had a tough time even creating a test board for an imaginary project \u2014&nbsp;I can\u2019t imagine how much time an actual, fleshed out project board would take. Plus, with so many options, it\u2019s easy for your boards and dashboards to become cluttered, which will just harm your day-to-day work.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, even though ClickUp\u2019s free plan is better than most due to unlimited users, it still limits the amount of spaces and lists you can make. Plus, there\u2019s a limit on custom fields that locks you from creating items once you reach it \u2014&nbsp;however, the pricing page doesn\u2019t state what that limit is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-clickup\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in ClickUp?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>ClickUp has very frequent updates \u2014 and often adds small tidbits and new options that broaden the capabilities of the app (or just clutter it more).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>One addition I like is customizable icons for board views.

But, if you have (plenty of) time to dedicate to building a board, completing that process is honestly satisfying.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"674\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Scrolling-through-Notions-long-list-of-blocks.png\" alt=\"Blocks in Notion\" class=\"wp-image-15292\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Scrolling-through-Notions-long-list-of-blocks.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Scrolling-through-Notions-long-list-of-blocks-534x300.png 534w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Scrolling-through-Notions-long-list-of-blocks-1110x623.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Scrolling-through-Notions-long-list-of-blocks-768x431.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Scrolling-through-Notions-long-list-of-blocks-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Scrolling through Notion&#8217;s long list of blocks<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Just having more customization than Any.do isn\u2019t enough, though \u2014 so Notion has even more improvements, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Board views<\/strong> \u2014 Boards in Notion are called databases, and they work as a collection of pages. Notion then lets you customize this overview with view types we mentioned above, settings, and filters, so this personalization is even more comprehensive.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Board templates<\/strong> \u2014 To mitigate how hard it is to set up, Notion offers a wide selection of templates. However, similar to block options, there\u2019s a large number (over 30,000 community-made) of templates to scroll through before you get the perfect one.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Task card templates<\/strong> \u2014 Since tasks in Notion need to be made from scratch, you can set a task you created as a template. This way, any time you need to create a new task, even on a different board, you can use this template to set it up quickly.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"672\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-Notions-timeline-view.png\" alt=\"Timeline view in Notion\" class=\"wp-image-15293\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-Notions-timeline-view.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-Notions-timeline-view-536x300.png 536w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-Notions-timeline-view-1110x622.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-Notions-timeline-view-768x430.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Using-Notions-timeline-view-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Using Notion&#8217;s timeline view<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s an obvious downside to this amount of customization options, though \u2014 the time it takes to set up a Notion board. With so much to personalize, you\u2019ll be scrolling through these lists of options endlessly before your board is fully prepared, which\u2019ll severely delay your project kickoff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another issue I personally had with Notion is its AI assistant. I found it too unreliable for any question or task I had for it. For example, I tried to ask for help on finding a way to comment on tasks \u2014 and it kept giving me options that don\u2019t exist in Notion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-notion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in Notion?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In its most recent update, Notion improved the capabilities of its AI agent \u2014 it can now take meeting notes and parse through comments or Slack messages, while understanding context. Now, I didn\u2019t get to test this agent on the free plan \u2014 but given my experience with Notion\u2019s AI, I\u2019m staying reserved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>There\u2019s also the addition of a new <em>Meetings <\/em>tab in your sidebar, which organizes all of your meetings in one place. This way, you should have an easier time remembering or finding meetings when they\u2019re needed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Available for: <\/strong>Web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Plan<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/plaky\/notion-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Pricing<\/strong><\/a><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$0, for up to 10 users<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Plus<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$10\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Business<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$20\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Enterprise<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">POA<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*billed annually<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p>\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Plaky Pro Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Interested to see how Notion compares to other popular project management tools out there?

I am, so there wasn\u2019t much difficulty figuring out how to use this tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, Quire has a rare feature&nbsp;\u2014 collaborative docs. This is a special view that lets you create a document you and your team can edit together.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These documents give you plenty of options to add to them, like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Text and headings,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Formatting options,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Code and code blocks,&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Bulleted, numbered, and dash lists,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Images,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Formulas,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Charts, etc.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>In my opinion, there\u2019s just the right amount of options in Quire\u2019s Docs. Any more would risk cluttering your screen and making it difficult to set up \u2014 this way, you get exactly what you need and nothing more (though I can see this being a downside for users who have more time to set up the <em>perfect<\/em> project doc).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I also like that it&#8217;s built on real-time collaboration, so working on these Docs with your team lets you plan work or brainstorm together and draft documents like strategies or <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/project-brief\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project briefs<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"673\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Creating-a-collaborative-KPI-tracking-Doc-in-Quire.png\" alt=\"Creating a collaborative KPI tracking Doc in Quire\" class=\"wp-image-15294\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Creating-a-collaborative-KPI-tracking-Doc-in-Quire.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Creating-a-collaborative-KPI-tracking-Doc-in-Quire-535x300.png 535w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Creating-a-collaborative-KPI-tracking-Doc-in-Quire-1110x623.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Creating-a-collaborative-KPI-tracking-Doc-in-Quire-768x431.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Creating-a-collaborative-KPI-tracking-Doc-in-Quire-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Creating a collaborative KPI tracking Doc in Quire<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Even as basic as Quire can be, it has more significant advantages over Any.do, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Custom fields in the free plan<\/strong> \u2014 Quire has a good selection of fields, but you can also create custom ones from general types like selection, checkbox, formula, etc. I was also pleasantly surprised that custom fields are available in the free plan, unlike with Any.do.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Reports and charts <\/strong>\u2014 In Docs, you can add various reports and charts, like line, area, pie, bar, nested donut, and more. All of these have plenty of settings to customize with, like data sources and values, which you can use to get detailed and specific insight on project progress and results.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Time tracking<\/strong> \u2014 Quire has integrated time trackers on every task card, so your team can easily add time they spent on that task.

The free plan only allows for 10 collaborators and 4 projects. You also don\u2019t get access to most views or time tracking without subscribing first. This way, if you have a small team and can\u2019t afford a paid plan, your management is quite limited.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Quire\u2019s handling of views especially bothers me \u2014 in the free plan, you only get the List and Kanban views. Plus, there\u2019s no dashboard or chart view to get clear access to reports. Instead, if you want to check on project health, you need to add charts to a Doc, which just risks unnecessary clutter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-quire\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in Quire?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Quire\u2019s recent updates include the addition of task times in the calendar view, so aside from the date, you can also see the exact time of your deadline. This helps improve task scheduling, and makes your team avoid <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/missed-deadlines-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">missed deadlines<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also improved the comment notification panel, so there\u2019s less of a chance that your team will miss important updates.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Available for:<\/strong> Web, iOS, Android<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Plan<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Pricing<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$0, for up to 10 users<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Professional<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$7.65\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Premium<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$13.95\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Enterprise<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$19.95\/user\/month*, or POA for a more customized plan<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*billed annually<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"custom-btn\"><a href=\"https:\/\/app.plaky.com\/signup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Keep management flexible with Plaky\u2019s views<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"8-superlist-best-for-working-on-the-go\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">#8 <a href=\"https:\/\/www.superlist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Superlist<\/a> \u2014 best for working on the go<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Superlist is an AI-powered note-taking app that lets users manage personal and business tasks in the same place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"why-choose-superlist\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Why choose Superlist?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to its mobile app and some useful features, Superlist is a fine pick for managers who need to stay mobile, and can\u2019t be tied down to a computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Pros<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Cons<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8211; Good mobile app<br>&#8211; Subtasks with infinite nesting<br>&#8211; Team spaces for sharing lists<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">&#8211; Limited task management&nbsp;<br>&#8211; Limited free plan<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In my opinion, the best use of Superlist is with the mobile app. It\u2019s just as easy to use as the web app \u2014 but it\u2019s a bit smoother, and it reminds me of classic note apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s easy to create task lists, update tasks, and customize your workspace with emojis and list covers (which, while not particularly useful, is fun and adds a bit more visual clarity). So, if you need to work on the go and save time, the mobile app lets you quickly manage your project, wherever you are.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I especially like the voice notes feature \u2014 it lets you talk about the tasks you want to create, and then makes them for you.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example \u2014 on your way back to the office from a client meeting? Create tasks based on it with voice notes while the memory\u2019s still fresh.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, this feature isn\u2019t available on the free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The mobile app also comes with mobile widgets, so you can quickly create and add tasks to your lists. One widget lets you manually create a task or list, or do the same through a voice note. The other widget just lets you create a task \u2014 so it\u2019s not surprising that I ignored that one.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"534\" height=\"1086\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Managing-lists-in-the-Superlist-mobile-app.png\" alt=\"Managing lists in the Superlist mobile app\" class=\"wp-image-15296\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Managing-lists-in-the-Superlist-mobile-app.png 534w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Managing-lists-in-the-Superlist-mobile-app-148x300.png 148w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Managing-lists-in-the-Superlist-mobile-app-504x1024.png 504w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Managing-lists-in-the-Superlist-mobile-app-6x12.png 6w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 534px) 100vw, 534px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Managing lists in the Superlist mobile app<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Superlist\u2019s mobile app isn&#8217;t its only upside, though. There are more features in Superlist I like, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Subtasks<\/strong> \u2014 You can create infinitely nesting subtasks in Superlist. This means each subtask can become a list of subtasks, so you can divide work and deconstruct tasks to make management easier. However, having too many nested subtasks becomes difficult to manage, because you need to search through a maze of tasks to get to the subtask you need.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Teams<\/strong> \u2014 In Superlists, Teams function like a shared workspace. You can add team members to them, and create separate lists in that Team. However, not all of these lists need to be shared with the team. You can create a private list in a Team, so your personal tasks at work can be organized, or you can wait until you set up a list before you share it with the team.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Email integration<\/strong>&nbsp;\u2014 Superlist\u2019s email integration can be connected so every time you get an email, it\u2019s turned into a task. Plus, it can go through the email and create subtasks based on its content. This process saves you from wasting time going through tons and tons of emails.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"680\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Infinitely-nesting-subtasks-in-Superlist.png\" alt=\"Subtasks in Superlist\" class=\"wp-image-15297\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Infinitely-nesting-subtasks-in-Superlist.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Infinitely-nesting-subtasks-in-Superlist-529x300.png 529w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Infinitely-nesting-subtasks-in-Superlist-1110x629.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Infinitely-nesting-subtasks-in-Superlist-768x435.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Infinitely-nesting-subtasks-in-Superlist-18x10.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Infinitely nesting subtasks in Superlist<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>While Superlists lets you create tasks easily, managing them is a different story. You can only add date, assignee, priority, and label fields to a task. And while this label can be customized, it\u2019s as close as you\u2019ll get to a custom field in Superlist. This limitation especially bothered me \u2014 I need to save detailed and organized task information to properly manage them. Basically, I\u2019m probably better off with a dedicated task management tool.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Another limit I didn\u2019t like is the free plan. It only allows for 5 users and 5 lists, and while you can have unlimited tasks, the list limit means it still quickly becomes cluttered. The AI capabilities also aren\u2019t available in the free plan, like voice commands, meeting summaries, or chatting with Superlist\u2019s AI.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"whats-new-in-superlist\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s new in Superlist?<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Most recently, Superlist fixed a crucial flaw with the app \u2014 lists you\u2019re invited to now automatically show up on your sidebar. Before, you needed to manually find them and pin them there. So, working with shared lists is a bit less frustrating.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>They also recently added the priority field to tasks, which makes deciding which tasks to focus on easier and visually clearer. Let\u2019s just hope this change brings in even more fields in the future \u2014 because that\u2019s where Superlist is severely lacking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Available for: <\/strong>Web, iOS, Android, macOS<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Plan<\/strong><\/th><th class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\"><strong>Pricing<\/strong><\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Free<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$0, for up to 5 users<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Basic<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$5\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><tr><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">Super<\/td><td class=\"has-text-align-left\" data-align=\"left\">$21\/user\/month*<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>*billed annually<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"custom-btn\"><a href=\"https:\/\/app.plaky.com\/signup\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Manage projects in any industry with Plaky\u2019s custom fields<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"manage-teams-of-any-size-with-plaky-by-cake-com\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Manage teams of any size with Plaky by CAKE.com<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At this point, if you\u2019re still unsure about which tool is actually best for you, we get it \u2014 the search for the best Any.do alternative can be exhausting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So why not just go for the best overall pick \u2014 Plaky!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Besides being suited for teams of any size with some fantastic features, Plaky also offers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Neat UI <\/strong>\u2014 Plaky\u2019s UI is clear and visually appealing, and it makes the app easy to learn and easier to navigate.
