I love the organization by date and the search function that allows you to find any task.
I would like for it to flag old dates in a different way so that they can be updated or resolved instead of just hanging out there and getting lost in the shuffle.
Allowing our team to connect from all over the country and the world is the greatest benefit .We are able to work like a well oiled machine when we all use Redbooth.
It's super easy to work and collaborate on projects together. You can easily assign tasks or projects to other colleagues, and see how other projects are going. I like that you can add subtasks to the tasks, so it makes it very easy to be as detailed as you'd like.
Nothing really. Can't think of any improvements I'd like to see.
As an international company, we have some team members on the West coast of the US, that have to work together with teams in Europe. Due to a very limited time overlap of our work hours, Redbooth really helps us work on projects together.
Infinitely flexible. Incredibly easy to use. It's really easy to see who is assigned to what task, assuming everyone has uploaded profile photos. Integrations with Google Drive, Slack, and Dropbox.
- Limited task file Import/Export capability - Pricing - Lack of customization options - Lacks the ability to manage a product backlog
An efficient team coordination. Keeping in touch with the team and create/update tasks. This is specially important for teams who are dispersed (different cities, different timezones, ...).
I like the tasks best! The way I can write subtasks in a task.
I can't think of nothing I deslike on Reedboth
planning chores and comunicating them to the players
Task assignment and time tracking great.
Lack of being able to tie workspaces together.
time tracking, Better invoicing
We can keep track of everything and nothing falls between the cracks. It's really easy to use and we can tailor it to our own needs. And the support, when needed, is excellent.
The only weakness is detailed capacity management, like when the studio is so busy that we have to manage what each person is doing every hour.
Project management, workflow, task allocation, keeping track of new business. We use it in part as a CRM.
We've struggled with finding the best way to keep track of tasks and when everything is due. We started utilizing Redbooth a couple months ago and it really helps us stay organized and on task. The gant chart is great and provides even better tracking for each member along the journey.
The side to side scrolling when in the task area. I understand its purpose, but I almost would rather scroll down to see than keep going to the side.
We needed to solve our organization problem. While we had great ideas we were never fully integrating them or completing them so we needed a solution to keeping on track of everything.
This platform is a powerhouse, but so easy to use. Because chat, online meetings, screen sharing, and conversation within tasks are all included, it's rare that we need to rely on collaboration tools (other than Google Drive). That alone saves so much time and confusion. But, with all of the features and flexibility (this really is an all-in-one project management solution), it's incredibly easy to use and the interface is simple and beautiful. Visual clutter is so distracting, even disorienting, but you don't get any of that with this tool.
I would really love to be able to assign multiple task owners to the same task. There are simple workarounds, but none as simple as multiple task owners which we're anxiously anticipating.
Problems that have been solved with Redbooth - Easy-to-track project management - Working with clients and remote teams and staying on track - Creating repeatable processes. We no longer reinvent the wheel every time there is a new project — it's all in Redbooth. - Screensharing - Skype isn't the simplest tool for collaboration. Redbooth integrates with Zoom, so scheduling meetings remotely is easy with the Google Cal and Outlook integrations. It's also easy to do a screenshare (life saving feature!) and get as many people as we need in the same meeting at once
Redbooth is affordable, it is easy to use. It is available for Windows, Mac, and Linux, ios and Android so the compatibility with operating systems won't get in the way of your teamwork. The task management features are great.
They provide your whole organization with only 2 GBs of space which should be increased.
You can have HD video calls with your team members, Redbooth also provides you with screen sharing feature.
I like its user-friendly interface. It lets you assign tasks to different team members and keep an eye on updates. Redbooth is pretty good for team collaboration, brainstorming new ideas, and also for keeping all the project data stored in one place. You can put priority tags on important tasks and rush jobs which is cool. The dashboard is pretty much like an email that allows you to check your tasks. You can create different workspaces for different teams and departments. It also has the option to get everyone on board and have HD meetings. The reporting system is also good that helps you with different types of project-related details. You can overview tasks assigned to other team members, manage your calendar, do time-tracking, and use other cool stuff to accomplish the goal.
What do I dislike about Redbooth? Well, the only con that I noticed is the lack of support on its mobile application. It has room for improvement. It takes a lot of storage space and weighs heavily on mobile devices. Moreover, the text drafting is bad.
It is an important part of our business as we have remote employees who are supposed to share their input on projects. The tasks are assigned to people, and then other supporting data ( project creative brief) is shared with team members to initiate work. Team members send preview and source files that are shared with the clients. In the next run, clients provide their feedback on initial drafts and the response is shared with particular teams through Redbooth. This is our work model and it would be fair to say that RB makes it happen for us.
I love that you can have different work spaces and assign tasks.
There’s not much to dislike, however, if I could change one thing it would be how tasks are checked off. I tend to accidentally check the wrong box when doing multiple at a time because it loads in a the next weeks’ task.
We use it for accountability, productivity, collaboration, and organization.
The fact that timelines can be assigned to task and also prioritize them. Am able to assigned tasks to not only my reports but also my supervisor for review. Redbooth is so convenient to use and help manage task. Am able to see when task are accomplished. The sub task component is also very goo. It help assign components of a main task to different people especially when ones input is dependent on another output. Most of all is the reporting part where one can pull a report on the level on task created, task resolved, task pending and even task left opened. Red booth has been very helpful with project organization, coordination of tasks, and job flow. It helps me keeps things on track better and reminds. Notwithstanding, my supervisor is also ab;e to monitor me on red booth through task assigned. She can tell what am doing am doing at any point in time and even make recommendation as to what is urgent from her point of view. I am glad I was introduced to red booth and I find it very useful.
I wish I can get reminders in my email to signal when deadlines are almost due for my tasks, this will very helpful to track and help re-prioritize tasks.
Project management. Am a Grants and Contracts Manager who manages not only reports but also other partners while reporting to the donor as well. My organization uses redbooth across all our offices around the world on all our projects. We are using redbooth as an organization to solve health care and health data driven problem for policy and decision making of the various countries regarding health care. We also use this as an organization of logistics related business
Everything from adding colleagues to projects to setting due dates works very smoothly.
I wish messages to me have a Reply button.
Working on multiple projects at once.
I especially like the timeline view. It is helping me become more realistic about the amount of time I need to complete certain tasks. The ability to create subtasks and task lists is very helpful. When I get stuck on one aspect of the project, I can easily see other tasks that I can tackle to keep the project moving forward.
I wish there was a way to share your workspace with one or two other people when using the free version. I wanted to share my workspace with my dissertation advisor, but had to pay to add her to my workspace. It is different if you a coordinating a team, but for just sharing your progress, there ought to be a limited way to do that.
Again, the ability to see a huge project in terms of smaller steps helps me to stay motivated and continue moving forward.
Easily set up and great tool to manage a marketing department with multiple projects and tasks. I enjoyed being able to see at a glance what was required of me and my team.
No program is perfect. The reporting tools could certainly be upgraded.
The ability to show value of department, number of tasks and projects accomplished and time frame to complete. No more lost tasks.
The organization of multiple organizations and multiple projects under each organization.
There's not a lot I don't like, it could improve on its ability to see a gnat chart view. Also would love to be able to mark a task as "unread" so it shows up in my notifications.
WordPress Agency managing multiple companies and projects within each client company.
Task management is easy. I can easily assign tasks to my team. I can the work progress as everyone who finishes leaves their comments. It allows adding different tags to different tasks that makes it easier for people to priortize tasks accordingly. All the proejcts files are uploaded to Redbooth and it serves as a backup as well.
Redbooth has recently implemented this rule where only administrators can resolv the tasks. My team faced this trouble that some members couldn't resolve the tasks. Usually, in our company, when somebody finishes a task they assign it back to me and resolve the task. However, due to the new settings, it was difficult for us to manage tasks.
Redbooth has helps us organize all of the out projects. We have put everything into RB. Every mordning tasks are distributed among team members and it's come quite easy for us to maintain balance. Overall, it has a great positive impact on our perfromance. Good tracking system has enables us get more things done on a daily basis.
The dashboard organizes all of your tasks by due date, regardless of where they're coming from, so that you don't miss anything.
Subtasks aren't available unless you have an upgraded user account (an extra $6 per person per month). Really annoying for what seems like it should be a basic, foundational feature.
I use Redbooth just for myself to manage everything I have to do. It keeps everything on track and keeps my projects moving.
