Recommendations to others considering Taskworld:
I use the free version of Taskworld for my personal use now after using and loving it with my company of 100ish co-workers. I can't attest to how the learning curve compares to other similar platforms--but I am the one who trains new hires on my team, and I can say that it works pretty well to start with some basic functionality demonstrations and then to let that newbie learn in practice in their own training project where they can really mess around and go through the motions. We have a "Taskworld Do's and Don'ts Guide" that we circulate to normalize how we handle tasks vs chats, always ensuring there is an assignee and due date on each task, who should be the one to close out a task, etc. Other than some of these etiquette snafus, rarely do I see someone really struggling with the functionality of the platform after their initial training period.

What problems is Taskworld solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization. Clarity of communication when we're never in the same room and we're juggling so many tasks at once. The ability to transfer assignments from member to member or share assignments (I know not all comparable platforms allow multiple assignees in one task). The ease of chats and organization of channels.
It helps to hold us accountable with due dates. And it's super easy to set up recurring due dates for regular tasks that arise weekly, monthly, quarterly, or even annually. It helps me to focus on exactly what I need to focus on today and put other responsibilities out of mind for the time being, knowing that TaskWorld will remind me when those tasks jump to the top of my pile.
