"It does a lot of things…"

3/5

What do you like best about Things?

Things is for sure a powerful To Do list for sure. It is ecstatically pleasing, has a clean and intuitive interface and synchronizes seamlessly with your devices in the Apple ecosystem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

While all Things are fine when you use Apple devices, unfortunately other platforms are (currently?) not supported. “To Do list” software should be represented on all (mayor) operating systems. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Things:

If you consider Things (3), do have a look at Amazing Marvin. It is “Things” on steroids. And yes, Mac, Windows and Linux are supported. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Things solving and how is that benefiting you?

Things keeps track of your To Do list. It does this task really well. Having found Amazing Marvin though, we realized it was time to switch things. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about Things?

I really like that it is easily organized and simple to find and categorize to-do lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

I just don’t like that I had to pay for it. It is a little expensive though it helped a lot. This is why I got rid of it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I currently don’t have any. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Things solving and how is that benefiting you?

Things helped me focus my brain at work when I usually have many students’ problems on my mind and am constantly distracted. It has reminders that I can set and allows me to share goals with others. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

4/5

What do you like best about Things?

The synchronisation between iOS and Mac apps. It never failed once. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

"Visually flawless"

5/5

What do you like best about Things?

From the first moment I installed Things, what I liked most was its impressive design. If it wasn't because I bought the app, I'd think it was born from Apple's design department.

Of course, we must also mention its integration with other management apps, calendars, email, integration with Things Cloud...

Something that I also like very much are the ways to organize tasks into projects, and within each task, to be able to create lists. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

What I like least about Things is that it lacks a better reminder system, both for macOS and iOS.

Although it can be integrated with Apple reminders, I think a better integrated notification system would be convenient.

I can really say few things that I don't like about Things, but one would be the high price of the macOS version. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Things:

If you have the need to organize projects in a clean and orderly way, without a doubt Things is the best alternative.

I just have to warn you that you have to buy the macOS, iOS and iPad versions separately, which can be an economic problem. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Things solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problems I solve with Things especially have to do with my lack of memory in the personal sphere. It helps me manage my agenda and tasks.

In the professional field, it helps me manage the tasks of meetings, calls, emails ...

It also helps me a lot to manage specific but urgent projects, of those that are not long term but need an urgent resolution. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"I've recommended it before & I love it"

3.5/5

What do you like best about Things?

After reading Getting Things Done, I was determined to find a tool that could support my new productivity approach. I love how intuitive and easy the tool is. I really enjoy that the iOS app and Apple Watch version are super easy to use. I've set up my Shortcuts by Siri app to include swift additions to my to-do list Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

I wish that there was more visualization of your to-do list, timelines, etc. I've actually suggested that they offer a tool that converts your projects and to-do items into a Gantt chart Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Things:

I recommend using Things if you understand the Getting Things Done framework. Things 3 creators actually made a guide for how to use it in conjunction with GTD. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Things solving and how is that benefiting you?

I am solving the "Where do I start?" problem with projects, and I have found a general sense of momentum in my productivity. I start each day knowing exactly what to take action on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Things Devotee"

5/5

What do you like best about Things?

I love Things. It's super easy to use and install, and you only pay for it once. The user interface is super clean, its mobile functionality is superb, and I use it to organize my life. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

You can only use it with Apple products. I have a personal PC and can't use it or integrate it there, which is a tragedy. They have an apple watch extension for the app which I've never really found useful but I also don't care at all about not having that feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Overall everything feels smooth and right how it should be! Really the best feature for me, is being able to quickly note some thought (from the quick entry shortcut, with intelligent autofill!) while doing whatever thing on my Mac.

Calendar and Reminders integration it’s also very well synchronized and displayed on the Menu.

Cloud makes it a very good feature for the companion app on iPhone, it’s a breeze! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Things?

I’ve run into a minor issue on Dark Mode, which was quickly fixed by the support. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Organization both of my work and personal life has had a big improvement since using Things, no regrets buying this software at all! Also for those quickly vanishing thoughts, quick entry is amazing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
