The beauty of it is the review date and due date functions to help you stay on top of tasks before the last minute. Also lets you sort by context (if you follow GTD). I found it useful to know when to do things and not have to think about until that time or context arrived. Helped me organize and feel on top of a very complex and variable schedule. I have many projects on the go at one time. I need it to stay focused. ### 4/5 — Great App but.... *2013-07-17* I really like this app to manage my busy life as a manager. It is more flexible and complete than any app I have found so far. BUT * It can be slow and stick for a moment or two. * It has some drag and drop but not from project to project like it needs. * It will crash if you do too many things in a short amount of time. I still use it everyday till something better comes along (if they don't fix this one) But I hope this gets fine tuned and maybe other features are added as I would rater stick with this. ### 4/5 — Excellent App IOS and PC *2013-07-14* Works well and syncs across IOS and PC versions with cloud sync. Superbly suited for GTD methods, meaning its a complex app. Casual organizers may be easier to use, but if you really use GTD methods, Organize Pro nails it. PC version runs very smooth. The IOS version is slow and clunky on my iPad. Hoping authors can streamline the mobile app very soon with an update. If you only use a mobile device, you might pass on Organize. It's a slow go only on iPad. You need a full computing platform to do the heavy lifting. Use the mobile device in support. ### 4/5 — Like this best! *2013-05-18* I've tried many many PIMs and like Organize BEST because it provides enough options to allow me to work how I want to work without having to hack my personal process. I use it on iPhone, iPad, and windows -- and particularly appreciate that all versions work the same so that I can seamlessly switch between them. Things to improve: * Windows version crashes on startup EVERY TIME now. Some update changed something. This is a big big problem for me. * Repeating tasks are cumbersome to use -- a time waster * Note editor behaves unpredictably when cutting and pasting ### 4/5 — Still too early to tell but..... *2013-03-28, version 1.4.0* This app seems to deliver everything as promised but it takes a little getting used to for someone with little experience like me. On first open there is an option to play with a phoney set of data. Don't cancel or you can't get it back. It would have saved me a lot of time had I allotted enough when I first used this app. There is a help link which is nice. Sorting options are excellent. Suggestions: -Allow tutorial data to be re-enabled. -On the ipad mini make it so that long lists don't hide behind the keyboard when you try to add an item. (Can't see what you're typing) -An expanded calendar view would be nice and maybe a few extra skins. (People spend a lot of time with this kind of software. It wouldn't hurt to make it a little more pleasing to the eye) Also tried: "things" but it didn't have as many features and seemed way too simplistic for my needs. ### 4/5 — Great GTD app, use it every day *2013-03-11, version 1.4.0* This is a great GTD app. I use it every day and I'm definitely more organised than I used to be! The ability to create structured projects, including folders and meetings is excellent - not seen this in other GTD apps. Also syncs with the cloud so get all my tasks on Mac, iPad and iPhone, which is essential. Some quirks, e.g. not figured out how repeating tasks are supposed to work, would have thought they should automatically create a new task when due but seems to just have one task that stays around forever. Only a minor niggle, otherwise a very useful app that stays true to GTD. ### 4/5 — Truly impressive, functional and motivating *2013-02-25, version 1.4.0* I have been using this app for a couple of weeks and my productivity level has increased, I prioritoritize tasks confidently, and I am more motivated to do the tasks efficiently. I am a heritage architect advisor and i work In a home office with multiple clients emailing tasks to me at random, so it is absolutely fantastic that I can drag emails with their attachments into Organize Pro and it is easy to categorise and manage them there. BUT ........ I am a Mac user and this app has the graphics of a PC designer and I almost threw the app in the bin as the learning process was so frustrating and confusing ( I used a PC for over 15 years - but I have been using a Mac with JOY for the last 3 years) I couldn't work out how to use this app on the iPad, but I purchased the computer version and worked it out that way. Then I took all my practice data out of the ipad version and synced it via the cloud , and I find I can use the iPad version now. The syncing is essential for my work and the app does it really well. There are some bugs. The colour coding options are very basic in design :(. but Even so, I still cannot get the colour selections to work on the computer version, but when I sync to the iPad they show up on it ! The technical architecture oF the app is excellent and pretty intuitive once you know how to use it but I would give this app ten stars if a truly mac graphic design was available. I would even pay more to be able to use the app with JOY. If you are a techno, engineer, etc you will probably have no probs but as a Mac user and/or non technical person, you may anticipate a painful learning process. ### 4/5 — I love it but..... *2012-09-13* I love OrganizePro. I was really hesitant to purchase this but I read the other reviews for Organize (the free version) and decided that it might help me. I do a lot of projects professionally and personally and really needed something that could keep everything organized. OrganizePro does just that...it keeps everything organized. I love that you can list your meetings, have projects with its subtasks, and view your notes for each tasks. There are things that i wish could be different....1) I wish it would sync on it's own. I downloaded the Windows trial version and the sync function is complicated. I have Evernote on my iPad and desktop and it syncs after a certain amount of time. 2) I wish it would show the start and end date of a task. 3) Sometimes I when I delete the tasks from my trash or completed folders, the app closes out and kicks me off. Otherwise, I love it. I'm looking to purchase the Windows version but I am hesitant. Like I mentioned, I'm currently using the trial version but it runs slow. I'm not sure why its slow but if I am going to pay $30 for it, it better run a lot faster than it is. Even if the syncing is slow and cumbersome, i still like how I can access everything on all my devices. keep up the good work and I can't wait to see what else you have in store. ### 4/5 — Organize for ipad *2012-05-28* I tried three different programs and found this one the most suitable for my needs. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Not What it Used to Be *2017-03-22* I have been a happy user of Organize Pro for the last several years. The latest version, unfortunately, stresses form over substance. Visually beautiful, it provides inconsistent results when syncing across platforms (iOS to Windows). I was never a power user, so cannot comment on the more advanced features for team collaboration, but if the data cannot be trusted, what is the sense? Multiple emails to customer service all went unanswered. I have deleted the program. ### 1/5 — No sync, no resolution, wasted money for me *2016-07-26* I use the Mac version, the Windows version and the iOS versions and none of them will sync. I've created 3 separate accounts and none of them will sync (thought the first one might be corrupted). Nothing I try will get them to sync, so what good is having multiple platforms if they don't sync. Tried submitting a service ticket on their website and it crashes every time, no matter which platform I use to submit the form. These folks are having problems, so stay away until you see updates that say they have the sync problem fixed. If you just need a single incident of the app, it's pretty good and has some nice features, just terrible sync. ### 1/5 — Disappointing *2015-04-06, version 2.2.0* Organize Pro looked good on paper. I upgraded to get the ability to hide sub projects and move things around - as is shown on the detailed manuals on website. Sadly, the downloaded program looks nothing like what is promised. So, money down the drain! ### 1/5 — Not working on all platforms *2014-05-31, version 1.9.2* This app used to be fantastic. I can still create tasks on my Mac but I can seldom add any dates (start, review, etc). When I can add them I can only pick certain minutes (00 or 05 but none of the others). I have to go to my iPad to set the time / duration. This approach of entry on two different devices just to enter one task is useless. I think I'll contact Apple and request a refund... at $50+ for the Mac version this is the most expense useless app I've ever purchased. ### 1/5 — Couldn't Make It Work! *2013-05-14* The base iPad app has limited capability with respect to repeating tasks. I have tasks that require other than the usual daily, weekly, monthly that iPad can't address. I purchased this application as it advertises the ability to handle many different patterns of repetition. On using the application, I found that it appears to be very strong in this area. However, take a daily task. When today is checked off, tomorrow should appear or at least be there. Whenever and by whatever method I tried to check off today always resulted in the task going away completely, as near as I can tell. This is in spite of my reading the manual section on this repeatedly. Now, this problem may be a lack of understanding or "operator idiocy", but I have deleted this application and replaced it with something cheaper and less able that will handle repetition. This may be an outstanding piece of software, but since I couldn't make it do what I need, I have to give it the lowest rating. ### 3/5 — Good task organiser *2013-09-21, version 1.7.6* Able to categorise tasks and write extensive notes. It's a shame you cannot create milestone tasks or Precursor tasks to enabling ordering of tasks. The review dates do help - but not when there are multiple related tasks ### 3/5 — iPad App OK, but... *2012-08-14* The iPad version of this app is nice. However, the Mac desktop version is terrible, so the suite doesn't meet my needs. I was hoping to upgrade from Things to a program that allowed more depth, nested projects and tasks, flexible timeline, etc. Organize has those features and it is pretty easy to use, but the daily task list does not reliably tell you what needs to be done today. One could argue that is the fundamental reason for the program to exist! On the desktop version, some tasks, particularly repeating ones, get "stuck" in their original review date and don't appear in today's review. Meanwhile, the iPad version DOES show today's tasks properly. The problem can't be fixed by synching. After cloud sync, the iPad is still correct and the desktop still wrong. I've wasted too much time trying to get this to work, going back to Things, which is reliable, if not flashy. If you are only using mobile devices, this app is fine. But if you want an across-the-board business solution, keep looking. ### 4/5 — Opening screen is always Monday! *2016-10-06* The day on the dark "Welcome" screen is always Monday and always has the same quote by Albert Einstein about staying with problems longer. When you try to submit a ticket in the support section it sends you into a frustrating loop and their doesn't seem to be a way to access the users group. It seems to be a good app these things are bothersome. ### 4/5 — Small app for big projects *2015-10-07, version 2.9.1* This app is equally great for lists of lists, as it is a support for those use the GTD method of managing multiple projects. Its capacity to handle much bigger complex teamwork projects looks good, but I've not had a chance to test this out yet. A great strength of this app is The ability to set a host of attributes for each individual task (as many or as few as you like) - allowing equally as many ways to categorise or view your work, some examples include: by person, date (deadlines and/ or review), location, project, priority level, % completed, type of action. If I'm busy in the middle of something else, anything new I think of can be jotted quickly into the 'inbox' for further action and categorisation (if needed) later. The functionality of the web-based version is perhaps slightly better, but the iPad version looks better and is probably easier to use overall. ### 4/5 — Almost there *2013-12-03, version 1.8.1* I migrated to this product from Omnifocus and am very impressed with layout and functionality. For me, the big let down is viewing on my iMac and MacBook Pro retina - the graphics are almost fuzzy and text is not sharp. This clearly was developed for a lower resolution and needs to be sharpened up. Once this is achieved I think this will be world class product ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Excellent software - simple or as complex as you want *2024-12-23, version 4.10.59* I have had this for over 10 years on my iPad, iPhone Mac and PC. That’s what I love best - cross-platform compatibility. There are too many versions. I’d simplify into personal/small business and enterprise/team offerings. Just two versions. ### 5/5 — Fantastic! *2020-04-08, version 4.10.36* This app has tons of options and it is possible to visualize projects and tasks clearly. Once you get used to the design, switching between desktop and any other device is really a seamless experience. 10/10 ### 5/5 — Took a while to understand the potential but now... *2014-11-02, version 2.1.0* Update: Still good but don't know why they took the calendar view away to select dates. Replacement of having the rolling date view is flash but ultimately pointless. A user needs to see the dates in context of a calendar to be useful ********************* When I first downloaded it I was after a good To Do list. As a result this seemed unwieldy. Trying it again a year later after learning about GTD I realise now how good it is. Nothing like it on the market. If they could somehow make the GTD methodology more accessible in the support then I think even more people would use it. Things to add or improve would be more skins, as the current ones are limited, and use of graphs to represent the tasks being done or completed. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2014-02-10, version 1.8.1* This app allows you to easily sync your PC and iPad with no monthly charge. Comprehensive and well thought out, it does it all: reminders, recurrent events and tasks, notes, attachments, priorities, flags, GTD, projects, sub-tasks, and more. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Excellent Organizer *2013-09-08, version 1.7.6* Works well on iPad, iPhone and Windows 7 PC. Syncs well with all devices. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Brain Waves *2013-08-19, version 1.7.6* Having spent time working with a comprehensive manual, running various tests, then clearing explanations within the application, I have been able commence effectively building a comprehensive appraisal of endless red departmental tape, I have encountered with Services and Authorities over countless years. I can see real potential for this program, and wish the developers of the application every success in future development. I would like to see access to Adobe Reader, on a two-way basis if possible. I wrote this before the weekend, and got ticked off by Apple auto-response for attempting to write a review before having used it:- I haven't purchase or tried this application or it's associates yet, but having had a quick breeze (don't skip this application without reading the comprehensive tutorial on the website,) think it must deserve all five stars. Why? For having understood life is not that simple, options for the variants are so essential to organise efficiently, so now I am going to buy it! ### 5/5 — The missing piece *2013-03-11* I absolutely love this app. If you take the time to set this up correctly it will do everything you need and more. I used the GTD method and I love that your tasks can have as many contexts as you need. Your task list tells the story of what you need to accomplish, where and with who. You can also push tasks to iCal or any calendar that syncs with iCal. I am using Week Cal. I have been trying to put it all together and I am now paperless. You can add a task quickly to inbox and process it when you have time. There is plenty of space for notes as well. I feel that if you are willing to take the time to understand the concept you will be very satisfied. Great job! ### 5/5 — Flawless *2013-02-10* After using all the other major task managers for several months each, they become bulky and unusable due to the high number of items I must track. This simply doesn't happen with Organize Pro. All the program's features work flawlessly and it hasn't crashed or lost any data on sync. The only feature I would like to see added is a search function, although I get by without it quite well. ### 5/5 — ALL IN ONE PLATFORM *2013-01-17* This app is great one place to make notes, track todos and meeting agenda items and make them traceable tasks. Great email from almost any screen to communicate to people you need to get things done. Fantastic iOS integration flawless on my iPad, Mac and iPhone. Definitely download manuals, tutorials are a bit weak. Oce you read thru it is a snap to understand the details. ### 5/5 — Great app *2012-12-26, version 1.4.0* Have been using many task apps. This app is one of the best I've ever used. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
