        Pros:
        I like to-do lists because they allow for better tracking of all users. The level of task automation is important as it saves a lot of time and allows us to focus on other aspects of the project. I receive timely notifications of updates and modifications to tasks. I like being able to share screens with my colleagues and get diverse opinions.
        Cons:
        It is a very well designed product, everything works very well and we have no complaints.

        Great tool for our daily work

        5

        Cirkus has become a major tool of our daily work, and is of an higher importance in our internal production process then email communication. There are still lessons (and routines) to be learned and to get adapted by everyone, but I am very confident, that we will continue with our good experience. It's really cool to get in contact with the support team, who really try to help you or, if that spefic function is missing, write it on their feature request list and get back to you, when the feature is alive.

        Pros:
        I believe there are two major things on Cirkus, why we have choosen it: 1) the deployment on iOS, Android, Mac and Web-Client, which work all very fine 2) True collaborative approach - the concept of working in a team is fundamental and well depolyed. The Zapier integration has also great potential, also we just have tested a little.
        Cons:
        For our editing and grading workstations we're missing a function to easily switch the user. Like a user choice, just when opeining the app. And we're missing a synchronisation of time bookings /events with other calendars.

        We offer technical support to many school districts. We use the software to plan out summer projects and general tasks. The tasks lists are visible and can be edited by either us or school techs simultaneously. This allows for easy planning and task management. Everyone knows their tasks and role before arriving.
        Cons:
        We also use this software for our HR processes. For these processes, there are tasks that need to be completed first before any subsequent tasks can be completed. It would be nice to be able to configure dependencies, where CirKus will progress with inviting others to the project or adding additional tasks to the project after certain tasks are completed.
