## OmniFocus Reviews
  ### 1. Good product but needs better integration

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Arran C. | Consultant, Computer Software, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 07, 2016

**What do you like best about OmniFocus?**

OmniFocus is good for quickly describing a bunch of stuff you need to get done.

**What do you dislike about OmniFocus?**

Omnigraffle really fails for me on a bunch of levels.

Firstly the interface is pretty unintuitive, I really don't want to read through the documentation to figure out when I should use a project, vs sequential actions, parallel actions or folders.

The 'note' pane in the inspector is pretty basic, and offers no formatting options (or at least no obvious ones) to really describe the task.

It'd be great if OmniFocus integrated with Calendar and Reminders in a meaningful way, and could do location based alerts.  Like i'm in San Francisco with customer X working on projects A, B, C, or i'm entering into meeting Y at 15:00 GMT-8, which tasks to I need to complete before then.

A large part of that could be solved if contexts autoswitched based on location, but they're just not smart enough currently.

There's also no options for sharing tasks with other people in a project.  I get that it's meant to be more of a personal project management tool, than an actual project management tool, but there's times when this would be a really useful feature.

**Recommendations to others considering OmniFocus:**

It's really best to consider this as a personal time management tool, rather than a proper project management tool.  In that context it works well even if it may feel a bit unfinished when using some features.

**What problems is OmniFocus solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Time management

  ### 2. Nice productivity app

**Rating:** 3.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 12, 2016

**What do you like best about OmniFocus?**

This app is by far the best GTD app I have ever used. It has the beautifully designed and super-easy-to-use interface, and an incredible high level of integration with a Mac computer. It automatically links to your iCal, and putting things in/finding things undone/get them done and check is very easy. 

**What do you dislike about OmniFocus?**

Prices pretty high. When I first bough this app, the iOS version and Mac version charges separately, which ended up with a big figure. 

**Recommendations to others considering OmniFocus:**

If you feel like it's what you can and are willing to pay for, get it! It will not let you down.
