How we grade them
| 3.4GPANozbeVery good | 3.6GPATodoistExcellent | |
|---|---|---|
| Value for money | BPremium is $9 a user a month billed yearly, or $11 monthly, dropping to $8 from 10 users. That's dear for one person's to-do list but about what team task apps charge, and it brings unlimited projects, time tracking and 20GB of storage each. | AFive dollars a month if you pay for the year, eight for teams. Hard to find anything this good on this many devices for that. |
| Free plan and trial | BFree with no time limit for up to 3 people. But you get 3 active projects, 3 tags, 500MB of storage and only 7 days of completed-task history. Fine for a taster, tight for real work. | BFree forever, and reminders are included now. But 5 projects is tight. Work, home, one side thing and you're done. |
| Features | AProjects, tasks and comments with files attached, plus Priority, Incoming and Activity views to show what needs you. There's a calendar, time tracking on Premium, and Nozbe AI, which builds a project from a prompt or a CSV file. | BTyping tasks in and repeating dates are brilliant. Filters are great if you like that sort of thing. No start dates though, and the calendar view is paid. |
| Ease of use | BWe have no App Store rating on record, so a B is as high as we go. The structure is simple enough: projects, tasks, comments. You can start on the free space and bring two teammates along. | A4.8 from around 129,000 App Store ratings. Open it, type a thing, done. Nobody needs a tutorial for this. |
| Platforms and integrations | AWeb, Mac, Windows, iPhone and Android. Integrations with Google Calendar, Outlook Calendar, Slack, Microsoft Teams, Dropbox, Evernote and Zapier are open to every plan, and there's a REST API. No Linux download is listed. | AMac, Windows, Linux (yes, really), iPhone, Android, web, watch and browser. There's an API too if you like wiring things together. |
| Best for | small teams moving task talk out of email | all-round to-do lists |

Key features
Nozbe
