Excellent app!
MeerI have been using OmniFocus ever since I bought a Mac and it was the first app I bought on my first iPhone.
The app is very intuitive yet the possibilities are endless.
I use it to remind me of daily tasks, for my groceries, to plan out my studies and to plan out projects that might take a year. It is my big bowl of things I must not forget with a beautiful design.
My two cents: don’t look further...5door Dez*******10/09/2020Cumbersome, counterintuitive and messy
MeerI started the evaluation expecting Omnifocus 3 to be much more advanced than Things 3 because you pay 2 -3 times more.
I was surprised to find out that Omnifocus 3 is cumbersome, counterintuitive and at point rigid when adding tasks and projects. If you add tasks in a project they are not by default in that project.
If you flag items it depends on other logic if you see them in the flagged list. I found out that I was puzzled about what happened to a task I just added as it should have attention somewhere on the homescreen, but it didn’t at all.
Omnifocus 3 is based on the outdated paradigm that only the due date matters. For tasks you need to start a few days in advance Omnifocus is cumbersome in entry, and then you still don’t see them appear, as the dashboards and views are primarily based on due dates and not start dates.
Other issues are e.g.:
- You need to enter a due date with time which is in many cases an extra step that serves no purpose. I found this annoying already on the first tasks I entered.
- Descriptions of fields and fields themselves are not clear (e.g. for deferred date).
- Default there is no list showing what you should work on.
- Etc.
Compared to things 3, omnifocus is poor value for money. I think the only reason why some people give it a good rating is that they burned a lot of money on Omnifocus, and they can’t do anything else than say it is great for those costs.
Lastly there is the upgrade risk: If you buy Omnifocus 3 and 4 happens to come out shortly after, you may risk paying more than when you would wait and buy Omnifocus 4. I did not get a straight answer on that one from omnifocus despite explaining quite explicitly the extra costs I wanted to avoid.1door Gre*******19/07/2020The one I come back to
MeerAm a bit a hack-a-Holic , so I really tried ‘them all’. And time and again I return to Omni focus. Despite having to pay (time and again) . It’s extremely well thought, gtd becomes instinctive almost when using the apps : syncing really seamlessly with their servers. So MacBook- iPads- iPhones.. all in omnisync.
I Would be even more disorganized without omnifocus. Thanks Omni!5door Mjo**29/08/2019Werkt zoals ik wil
MeerIk heb ontzettend veel verschillende tools gebruikt en ben uiteindelijk geland op Omnifocus. Voorheen ging ik van tool naar tool vanwege tekortkomingen, maar nu al meer dan een jaar niet meer. Omnifocus is volledig in te stellen naar wens. De app past zich aan naar hoe ik graag werk ipv andersom. Het resultaat is een verhoogde productiviteit, overzicht in alle projecten en taken en rust in mijn hoofd.
5door Lit*******28/07/2019More than awesome
MeerWhen it comes to task management apps, we’re spoiled with choice. Wunderlist, Things 3, Any.Do, 2Do, Todoist: I’ve used them all extensively on a day-to-day basis.
The one I keep coming back to is OmniFocus. Why?
Because it’s crazy powerful, without cluttering the interface with its many features.
Because it drives GTD home by not only using the Inbox, but helping you periodically refine your tasks by offering an excellent Review Mode as well.
Because It allows you to attach any file to an Action. Not just images or PDFs.
Because its web client allows you to manage your Actions using any device.
And last but certainly not least: because its Forecast view combines Days, Calendar and Actions into a single, intuitive and focused view. Not one of all the other task management apps is able to match this combination of simplicity and focus.
OmniFocus is more than awesome, and helps me enjoy peace and balance in my life.5door Ris*******23/07/2019LifeHack+!
MeerWat een overzicht en een rust kreeg ik terug!
GTD systematiek probleemloos geïntegreerd, nu ik OmniFocus gebruik, inmiddels al járen, trouwens.
Zeker met de mogelijkheid een actiepunt aan meerdere contexten (tags) te hangen.
Mensen van Omni, dank: jullie houden mijn werkdag werkbaar!5door Hi *****18/07/2019€40,00 wasted on the previous version
MeerI’ve purchased a previous version for over €40,-. Now that version is not working on iOS 12. When downloading version 3 of the app and try to restore purchase it is said: no purchase found! What rubbish! This is pure money lapping!
1door Cd *01/06/2019De beste!
MeerIk gebruik deze nu een aantal jaren. Af en toe probeer ik wel eens wat anders, maar niets verslaat Omnifocus. De perspectieven zijn ideaal. Ook de tags zijn heel handig. Ik gebruik de app elke dag.
5door Ram*******11/04/2019Don’t buy: action groups can’t collapse
MeerIndent / collapsing for sub items / action groups: you cannot hide sub items (so that you would only see the main items). Collapsing is only possible for Projects (in Project view: what’s the point?). For me a reason to stick with v2: I want a clutter free (adjustable) view.
Also I don’t like the new font type very much. Maybe because of my smaller screen? (4”)
An real improvement is the possibility to edit multiple items at once.2door Bra*******06/01/2019Zeer functionele taken app
MeerGebruik OF al sinds versie 1 en wordt bij elke release alleen maar beter. Zoveel mogelijkheden om op een goede manier je todo’s te beheren.
5door Ger*******23/10/2018UI less then of OmniFocus v2
MeerIndent for sub items..., and you can’t hide those sub items (so that you would only see the main items). Collapsing is only possible for Projects (in Project view: what’s the point?). For me a reason to stick with v2.
Also I don’t like the new font type very much. Maybe because of my smaller screen? (4”)
An real improvement is the possibility to edit multiple items at once.3door Bra*******23/07/2018Improved powerhouse
MeerPleasantly surprised by the new Omnifocus 3!
Omnifocus 2 really helped me organise my work, get an overview of my projects and getting things doen. The new version (3) has more options and is a real organising powerhouse. Though the new options and UI possebilities Will take Sometime to get used to.5door Nyt**11/06/2018Good as always...
MeerI have purchased all previous versions as well and must say it’s still dam good.
They have excellent customer support.
I have purchased again the pro version and love the custom forecasts with tags.
At the first side it looks very much like the previous version (beside the tags). But as OmniFocus states, they have changed a lot under the hood.5door Dig*******04/06/2018Good impression
MeerImpressed by the new version. Especially the edit mode for more than one task is very useful.
5door Ger*******30/05/2018Best (GTD) task manager around
MeerI’ve been working with OmniFocus since v1 and have tried a few others but kept returning to it and have decided that OmniFocus is the best one for me as I use the GTD method.
What sets OmniFocus apart is the review mode, which is exactly what I need.
Furthermore, the Omni Group has one of the best (human) support I have encountered.
With version 3 that introduces tags (and more), they have taken a good product to the next step.
Highly recommended, especially the PRO version that has the custom perspectives you can create to have even more grip on your tasks.5door Sro*****30/05/2018
