Microsoft To Do

Mijn tweede brein

Opmerkingen: Het is een hele fijne tool. Wat ik al schreef bij de pluspunten: het is mijn tweede brein. Ik wil mijn brein gebruiken om over dingen na te denken en niet om aan dingen te denken. Dat kan ik allemaal kwijt in deze tool.

Pluspunten:

Ik ben al jaren fan van Microsoft To Do. Ik gebruik de tool als mijn tweede brein: alles wat in me opkomt noteer ik daar. Mijn brein is om over dingen na te denken en niet om dingen te onthouden. Daarnaast gebruik ik het op mijn weken en dagen te plannen. Iedere ochtend gebruik is deze tool om mijn dag door te nemen. De tool is makkelijk in gebruik en kun je eenvoudig koppelen met andere apps (bijvoorbeeld mijn Google Agenda) via Zapier.

Minpunten:

Wat ik nog mis is de mogelijkheid om periodiek en automatisch een taak in te schieten. Sommige taken komen bij mij om de 2 weken (of een andere tijdsperiode) terug en die laat ik nu inschieten via Zapier. Dat zou simpeler kunnen.

The to do app

Opmerkingen: Overall experience was very good with this.

Pluspunten:

Microsoft to do comes with a clean and minimalistic user interface. It has widgets that are very helpful. The todos are directly backed up to your drive account so that they can be accessed anywhere and anytime easily on any device.

Minpunten:

The only thing that i dislike about this is that the widgets are not customisable.

Frees up the space in your head...

Opmerkingen: As I mentioned already, To Do allows me to create lists of tasks, a place to jot down ideas so I don't forget, etc. I suffer from ADHD and this program is really a life saver for me. I use it mostly on my phone but also integrate it with Outlook, my iPad and it alleviates that "I know I'm forgetting something" feeling

Pluspunten:

I've always been a list person. if I have to accomplish something, have an important meeting to prepare for and attend, etc. I can create a list of the steps needed to take in order to accomplish said task. To Do offers numerous ways of personalizing lists. You can create a Group of lists that are related in one way or another, add and delete lists from the group or create a list on it's own. You can coordinate it with your calendar and access and sync throughout all your devices and platforms. it allows me the ability to create a list of things I need to do and sub lists needed to accomplish each step. once on the list, I can get it out of my head until I need to address it, freeing up the gray matter to focus on the task at hand. You also can set reminders for each task, schedule them in the future. It's also compatible with Get Things Done. You can also attach the files you need in order to accomplish things

Minpunten:

The one thing that is extremely weak - and this goes for every Microsoft product - is their lack of customer support. First you need to exhaust all the AI options before you can actually address your issue with a real person who may not ever respond to you. And if or when they do, you wonder if they even read the complaint or problem you're experiencing. Truly frustrating experience
