Keep on top of your repetitive tasks
Manifestly has been great to use. It is an important part of my business. Whenever I work on long term projects, I end up placing the repetitive tasks that come out of it as part of Manifestly. Over the years, Manifestly has also improved in its UX, making it simpler to use.
PROSManifestly closes a gap for me of handling repetitive tasks that either happen on a weekly/monthly cadence or those that happen once an event occurs, like someone making a purchase of a report or a course online. This in turn keeps me on top of the tasks I need to do and makes sure I make less mistakes in my business.
CONSManifestly is great. The only problem with task management is the need to follow through and complete the tasks ;-)
Reason for choosing Manifestly
It just worked.

Just what the doctor ordered
I don't know when this system came into existence, but if it has been around for years, I wish I would have known about it. For an IT department, processes and consistency of action are an important facet of the operation. Regulators and auditors expect us to have controls and routines in place for many key activities. Manifestly not only helps us do our job better, but it naturally allows us to prove it to anyone. Just a few clicks and you can export a report/summary of a completed checklist, showing who did what -- and when. It is an awesome system to weave into our IT business.
PROSThere is a simplicity to the Manifestly system that really helped me implement standard processes into our IT team. I love how you can have workflows that are ad-hoc or scheduled to repeat. The ad-hoc variety was perfect for our user "onboarding" and "offboarding" processes that have a lot of details to follow. Previously, our PCs were setup for new users "by memory" and things were often missed and people forgot their assignments. But now, once we get notice of a new hire, we fire up a Checklist, assign out tasks across the team, and go to work. We achieve consistency of process, while offering transparency to where we're at and what's next. The scheduling feature is ideal for our "Daily Morning IT Tasks" that are important to not forget. It forces us to make sure we're keeping our eyes on the ball -- by monitoring nightly backups, confirming key systems are up, and assuring the Help Desk is ready to start the day. On top of the wonderfully clean and easy to use browser interface, the mobile app is perfect when we're on-the-go and still need to reference our assignments and work-in-progress.
CONSHonestly, there isn't anything I think of that gets in our way. Quite the opposite in fact. At one point, I was wishing there was a way to assign tasks in bulk rather than one-at-a-time. After submitting a request for that type of feature, I received a polite response that informed me that it was already included in the system. I just did not notice how to do it. With the instructions and knowledge in-hand, now I can quickly run down a new Checklist and assign multiple tasks to myself or others on my team with ease.
Reason for choosing Manifestly
When looking for other products like Manifestly, there were a few others that I recall finding. But none were as simple to sign-up for (and try easily before buying) and hit the nail on the head for what we needed. Manifestly is the "golden nugget" in the creek that we needed to find -- and did. The cost is more than reasonable for a small team. And the system just works elegantly. Once you get your feet wet with a couple initial workflows, the ideas for others just start springing up right-and-left.

Farfetch
Really positive. Support has been great and receptive. I've spoken with [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] several times and he's always been responsive. The product is really strong and I'm really happy with it. I didn't even pause when the renewal came up - immediately renewed it.
PROSI like the basic functionality of it the most being able to reuse checklists over and over again is exactly what I had been looking for. The way manifestly is designed is exactly how I needed it to work.
CONSA pain point is creating multiple checklists using the same workflow. It would be nice to be able to mass create new checklists from a spreadsheet i.e. uploading a list of new hires to create their individual lists. We use the product primarily to track on-boarding of new employees, something that happens in batches of 2-10 people. It would be really nice to have a better global view of all the outstanding tasks. Being able yo create new task lists from existing workflows through email or slack interface would be a welcome improvement. The multiple view of checklists is confusing and messy at times if there are too many lists open. The skip feature - having it be in a menu is bothersome. Could skips be moved up in the interface?

It's been a great experience that have helped us a lot. We have high hopes that the product will get the best.
PROSIt is very easy to implement and user friendly.
CONSWe understand is a novel and growing product that's on constant development, but is lacking of some important features, such as sending automatic email, and that's due the maturity of the product. But we understand that with some time it will get even better.

Manifestly - Help us to mange all our recurring tasks
We use it a lot It helps us manage all our recurring tasks (we have a lot of them) Although it easy to use - it took time for some of the users to enjoy its benefits My guess is that you need to upgrade your UX/UI/design I will be happy to help think about what can be done
PROSThe solution is really good It simple to use - it doesn't need any special training for limited users (that only need to get reminder and update when they are done) It really good to mange and track all our recurring tasks and remind to the users and their managers what and when they need to do their tasks The team is always very helpful and professional and ready to help with ant question
CONSThe design is old, the users do not feel happy to use it there some UX and UI changes that need to be done that it will feel better to work with

Love manifestly
Easy to use and forces my team to complete checklists and tasks without me having to stand over and constantly reminding them to do so. My team does whatever tasks I assign to a checklist and forces accountability. I also really like how responsive [SENSITIVE CONTENT HIDDEN] and his team are to questions and help that I have needed over the last few years.
CONSI really can’t think of anything other than maybe the ability to move some individual tasks via an iPad rather than a desktop but I’ve adapted and it’s really no issue.
Reasons for switching to Manifestly
Manifestly fulfilled wa I was looking for which was a way to have checklists be assigned at specific times and I can see the % of completion at any time.

Manifest.ly makes toil bearable
Manifest.ly makes it very easy to configure our manual processes necessary to keep our product running as painless as possible. We very regularly make updates, add helpful links, and rely on it to keep the gears turning. We use it mostly for release checklists and scheduled manual jobs
CONSI haven't had any issues with the product that would make me look for an alternative. All very straight forward. The UX could probably be a little easier, like updating is kind've confusing, but other than that great.

Easy to Use, Implement, and Update
This program has allowed everyone on a project to staff informed of progress and has cut down on the time spent waiting for answers to questions. This is saving us time and improving communication.
PROSI really like this software because it is very straight forward and makes it easy to train my staff how to use it. Creating and running new workflows is super easy and does not require any complex skills. I also love that managers are easily able to see what tasks have been completed and what tasks are still needing to be completed so they always know where things are at.
CONSAt this time this software currently does not have the ability to easily message all users on a specific checklist run. It also does not have the ability to use complex variables to automatically send emails without needing other app integrations.

PROSInstant online updates. Customisability.
CONSMore info provided for each checklist. EG. Years on date created. Need an easier way to skip points. Right-click or Shift-click? The organisation of currently running checklists needs improvement. Possibly a UI update would make the difference.

Manifestly changed our lives!
It has streamlined our processes and increased overall efficiency
PROSEverything we do is a recurring task, so having the abilitiy to assign repetitive, recurring tasks to my staff has had a wonderful impact in overall efficienty
CONSI would like more automation features that did not require integration with other apps such as Zappier. A good example would be having the ability to assign a task withing a workflow to a different team member automatically once previous steps are finished. Also, some time ago, even if I don't include myself in a checklist, I get automatically included which results in too many emails and notifications that should not exist.

Revolutionized My Life
I've struggled with things falling through the cracks at my organization. Manifestly has been the perfect tool to prevent this from happening and allow me to rest assured things are being taken care of—and if they aren't, I'll know about it.
PROSThat you can easily generate multiple versions of the same checklist with tasks already assigned. I also appreciate all the flexibility that's built in.
CONSI found it somewhat confusing at first, as did many on my staff. There's a learning curve, but it was more than worth it.

Big Bang for your Buck!
Very easy to use and definitely was very easy to train additional team members how to use
PROSIt was easy to set up, navigate and create workflows and checklists
CONSI can't say that there is anything I disliked. The only missing feature in the software was the lack of fireworks, confetti once you completed a checklist. However, in direct contact with the owner of the software, they got to work and created that function. It is a blast to see and an accomplishment when you complete a checklist
