so today we're doing a recap on a project management application called task aid it
is something we've covered here on the channel before but we actually haven't covered it in a
fair while it's probably been two years since we looked at cascade and it's very much grown
up it's not a teenager but it definitely has been growing in terms of features and the fixes that
it's made to the experience so on overview in today's video give you everything you need to
know about this application so let's start with what task aid is it's sort of like a lightweight
project management application it allows you to manage your tasks projects and be able to use them
in a lot of different views i'll explain some of the major features in a minute but it's available
on android ios it also is available on mac pc and it does have even linux editions as well and some
nice browser extensions now the application itself is also available on appsumo which is a
service that sells software i mean that's quite popular but it also has a y combinator backing
which is a very popular us investment company and it has gone through that process as well so
in terms of major features as i said it's really for micro project management tasks calendar and
mind mapping too it's a great way to input a lot of stuff like notes and meeting notes documents
notes and be able to just plot them into a project management and some of your tasks
for the days they can intertwine inside of this application its design is really really nice
too so when i say light weight project manager what i mean is it doesn't necessarily have the
advanced and flexibility of apps like monday and click up but it does have more abilities
than something like task aid um really a little bit more on par with the likes of trello in the
way that it's built one of the things i really like inside of task 8 is the way that they've
structured it so that you can move from creating notes in a journal all the way over to managing
a project with team members they have a great my and personal and work area which is really nice
and that sort of transition between them is perfect for small teams and for managing your own
productivity so some more of my personal favorite features they actually have a video call function
inside this application so if you're working in a small team and want to start collaborating over a
video call you can actually do that inside of the application too as i said there is a lot of that
personal productivity aspect in here you could start taking a bullet journal in here and the
journaling abilities and some of their templates they offer are really nice
and i love some of the customization abilities especially being able to use a lot of color
and highlighting around this application and then subtly transitioning into a board
and even being able to plot ideas as a mind map which is really nice something i really like
as well about the application is it's reasonably priced at five dollars per month for their premium
plan which is fairly reasonable much more tailored towards a lightweight project management pricing
which i said at the beginning okay so let's give it a score and summary this is an app that i've
covered for a long time now and i would probably say this is best for small teams it's flexible
enough for them but it doesn't have some of the rigidity that you'd see inside of click up and
monday and some of the other big ones like asana and trello however it does have that personal
productivity and the flexible nature of the views as well as well as a nice level of templates too
which can help get you started i would probably say this application is suitable for no more than
15 people and has some great personal productivity aspects to it as well if you're looking to use it
for your own setups although do note that their free plan does have some limitations
when it comes to storage i believe it was only a thousand megabytes but that should set you out
if you're not uploading large files so folks that was our recap of task aid i'm going to give it a
