![]() ![]() The startup’s goal is to turn your emails into actionable items and improve email-based workflow. Instead, you can open a custom message to a dedicated email address, or quickly check and manage important tasks straight from Gmail’s interface. Producteev already connects to most of the communication tools you use on a regular basis, including IM services like Google Talk, AIM, Yahoo! Messenger, Twitter, and Facebook, so you aren’t forced into visiting a web application to save and manage tasks. What makes Producteev such a great alternative (and for full disclosure, TechCrunch employs Producteev for managing conference-related tasks) is that it allows users to capture tasks, email-based action items, or schedule deadlines using your preferred communication channels as well as using its realtime-enabled backend to synchronize web apps, mobile apps, and desktop apps so that your information stays up to date - across platforms. Producteev is a workable alternative to solutions like Basecamp, though the space will surely be keeping a close eye on Dustin Moskovitz’s Asana. Few people enjoy using complicated product, task or CRM managers, so Producteev has built a solution with a user-friendly interface that is channel agnostic, and even adds a bit of gaming mechanics. In the meantime I have started using Firefox (thanks to piyush_soni for the tip) and have found the Toodledo AddOn to be just what I needed, so for the moment problem solved.You may be tired of hearing about task managers, but Producteev is a task management service worth writing home about. Which is what makes the lack of GMail (and Evernote) integration so noticeable, in every other respect Toodledo knocks the socks of the competition. I suppose I should take heart that the original response to this request was "its on our list to do" but it has now become "Gmail integration is a priority for us" which is not a canned response.Īnd Simon, yes you are right, I have also tried out most of the competing Task Management programs, but keep coming back to Toodledo as it is so flexible and stable, plus the iOS mobile apps are so good. I only read the posts that interest me, I can imagine that it would take a long time to not only read but respond to every post, as Jake appears to do. This would explain the "canned responses" to many posts, including my requests for GMail integration. Thanks again for a great program - Martin.įrom other posts on this forum it appears that Toodledo is in fact one person by the name of Jake. I really don't want to have to move to GQ, I really do love TD so even a hint of when we will see GMail integration would be most appreciated. You have in the past replied to posts asking for this feature with the comment that is is on your list, it is a priority for you etc, but other (IMHO) less useful features have been added before this one. However, if it is going to be 6 months or more, or you can't/wont give a target time scale, then I can't carry on with TD with no hope of this feature coming soon, so I would have to seriously consider moving to GQ. If I know it is in the next couple of months then I will stick with TD, as the rest of TD is so good it means I can wait a bit longer for this feature. This is a very important requirement for me.Īlso, I know you don't like to give out target dates when new features will become available, but I am sure we would all like an idea of the time scales for this. Are you intending to implement GMail integration in a such a way that the url of the GMmail is automatically included in the task note so that you can easily open and read/reply to the GMail thread directly from the task in TD? ![]()
