No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This tools helps to maintain communication with the team and provides updates on the tasks #### Cons It can be complex if you are not familiar with the tool. My recommendation is to watch the videos in order to understand the tool functionality --- ### We Love to Collaborate on Redbooth - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Broadcast Media - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2022 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered When projects are managed in a professional way, it surely creates synergy. We have achieved much by using Redbooth. It is considered the backbone of the company. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The best feature that I like about Redbooth is its ease of use. Wherever I go I have my laptop with me, I need to connect to the internet and Booom... I can have a look at all the projects and track progress. It is easy to assign people to different tasks. Urgent tasks can be easily prioritized and team members can see the tags and go after the high-priority tasks. The user interface is friendly and it is easy to learn. We have created different channels and put a lot of data on Redbooth. We're happy!!! #### Cons The task resolve/unresolve creates confusion for new users. When a task is resolved but needs some work, the assignees don't get notified. I think this should change and there should be some other way to do it. --- ### It's not Trello - Overall rating: 2/5 - Reviewer: Kristina S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: July 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 2/5 - Value for money: 2/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 2/5 #### Pros I mean some stuff was ok like the cards and the checklists but it was so confusing and all white so hard to look at. Also I had to scroll forever #### Cons I don't like that it's not intuitive to use or fun to see all the blocks of copy and just be getting notified on projects I can't even see --- ### A Solid Option for Task Management - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Motion Pictures and Film - Company size: 201-500 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Redbooth is as strong as the amount of users who commit to it. We struggle to get everyone on board, and therefore a lot of task management still has to happen over email and text. However, on teams who have really bought into the software, Redbooth offers everything we need. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros The layout of Redbooth, with horizontal columns that are flexible and moveable, has given us a really great way to organize our tasks, and schedule out a variety of time-based tasks and travel appointments. We also make use of the robust tagging and notification options within the software to manage our tasks appropriately across a 20+ member team. #### Cons A weak point of Redbooth is definitely the calendar view options. We really need the ability to view tasks on a calendar that are only under a specific tag, or viewing tasks for a single person across all workspaces. We also run into some issues with Word documents not displaying properly in the web interface, which just adds another step to download and look at a document when all you need is just to see it at a glance. --- ### Heartache.

Seems like the best thing since sliced bread when you start using it! My team thought it was going to be great. #### Cons It was far too flexible. We found that tasks were being created and not added to client accounts. Spent weeks doing an audit to recover about $30,000 from clients. The clients were not happy. #### Reasons for switching to Redbooth My company wanted to save money. --- ### Get Ahead With Great Coordination - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Electrical/ Electronic Manufacturing - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you.

No incentive was offered I tested about 25 different task trackers; and we decided on Redbooth just do to its general usability to track tasks across multiple projects by both internal and external staff. We had tried Asana - but in the end; no one used it .. to cumbersome, ugly and more complicated then our staff needed or could handle. Redbooth ws the 3rd little bears bed that just fit right :) #### Pros Design Ease of Use Power #### Cons Time tracking not linked into a more powerful engine Could use a more robust calendar. --- ### it is a very good product, and the price is fully worth it - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Penisoara C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Photography - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2024 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Great way to keep project schedules organized, it helps me a lot to organize my 10 people in my team #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros - Desktop sharing - good audio and video quality - great user interface #### Cons - a bit difficult to find the conversations you want in history - I often have problems viewing word documents --- ### +3 years using it. Always helped, but with a pinch of frustration. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Mario S. - Industry: Computer Software - Product usage: Used unspecified for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2016 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3.5/5 - Customer support: 4.5/5 - Functionality: 4.5/5 #### Pros Incredibly versatile, one-man-band type of collaboration software. It ties communication tools (HD videoconference and chat) with task management (recurring tasks, subtasks, ...), project management (lightweight Gantt chart, workload view and time tracking), all native, in one package. It also features native Android and iOS native apps. These work well for keeping in touch with the team and create/update tasks. This is specially important for teams who are dispersed (different cities, different timezones, ...). While you can easily spend hundreds of dollars on different softwares for different purposes, Redbooth ties it all together in one. #### Cons They've been through a lot of changes over these 3-4 years and they don't seem to have found their core yet. The UI still looks something out of the first drafts and doesn't look polished or slick like other players in the collaboration space like Asana or Slack. The Dashboard is somewhat useless and just mimics a prettier email inbox while having the same behavior. Their premise of replacing email is a bit doubtful. Lots of potential, but doesn't seem to go anywhere. --- ### Great choice for task management - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Alan G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: December 2023 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros This app is very intuitive and easy to use. #### Cons Sometimes their server crashes and you won't have access to the contect, it happens very rare although. --- ### Great way to keep track of task! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mariah K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: October 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. keeps me organized #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I get lost at times when trying to keep track of all the task i am set to do for our company. Redbooth allows you to keep track and mark off your task once completed. You can even mark them as high importance so they are at the top of your list! You can have many categories so you can keep track of your task for each department or section you are working on. #### Cons You have to check daily. I wish they would send you reminders by email on task that are upcoming or due on the day or even over due. --- ### Redbooth review - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ruth G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Real Estate - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: November 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall Redbooth is a great service, just very poor customer support #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 1/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The ability to share information and files with the company. The interaction available to work as a team on a product or project. #### Cons Customer Support was almost non existent. Whenever I had an issue or question it was a major undertaking to get help. --- ### Asana, but better - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Lorin M. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: March 2015 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Switching to Redbooth distilled my typical workflow into one simple interface. Video conferencing is more intuitive and more flexible than Skype, and having the smartphone and iPad apps makes transitioning from office --> home office --> being on the go completely seamless from the collaboration side. I never feel out of the loop and can stay in touch with the rest of the team wherever I am. As far as ease of use - the interface gets an A+ for being intuitive. If you are a heavy Evernote user this interface will make sense to you. Pros: - HD video conference with chat and screen share is the best of Skype & Join.me, all inside one system - communicates with Google Calendar -toggles between multiple organizations easily - tagging feature - excellent within a large team - HD video conferencing works with users and non-users via link sharing - huge bonus - easy file sharing without email or Dropbox - reporting feature for a bird's eye view of task management - optional recording on HC video conferencing - this is great for creating training material, explaining complex projects that need review, or creating video content Cons: - Looking forward to additional HD conference features but thus far this is the best collaboration tool I've used #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 --- ### usefull tool to increase productivity - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Rafal T. - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros easy coordination of remote workers and very easy taracking of the work progress in a different projects #### Cons lack of possibility to customize my own workspace an adjusting location of particular parts of the dashbord to fit my own prefferences and needs --- ### I found this software really helpful for my daily planning and managing my time. - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Ma¿gorzata K. - Industry: Architecture & Planning - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. The greatest benefit is that it helps to clearly organize my day. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros I found that interface is very intuitive and user friendly - it is easy to find current, finished and related tasks. #### Cons I found dashboard to be difficult for me to modificate and personalise for my own needs and requirements. --- ### Great Project Management for Small Businesses - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Sarah B. - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 6 months - Reviewed: July 2017 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros -I like the idea of creating project boards and having everything visually laid out. -It's really easy to see who is assigned to what task, assuming everyone has uploaded profile photos. -It's easy to see what you need to do at a glance, as well as everything that has been completed so far. #### Cons -I don't like having to scroll left/right to see all of the open tasks. If your project has a lot of tasks, you could be scrolling quite a bit. Left/right scrolling just feels off to me. -I wish the desktop application would stay open when you close it, like Slack. --- ### Everything you need to work together in one place - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Meagan F. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: April 2015 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Before finding redbooth, I used a string together toolkit of other products to collaborate with my teams: email, trello, gchat, go to meeting, and none of them worked very well. I was constantly forgetting which tool contained which document or task- and version control in email is a nightmare. So glad I found Redbooth. As a consultancy, I work with different teams on different projects. I'm able to set up custom projects for each client, assign tasks and track the progress. Redbooth has helped make my teams more productive because everyone knows who's in charge of the next action item. I also work remotely a lot of the time, so being able to stay in touch with my teams on daily video calls with the conference call feature, or ask a quick question on chat is really helpful. On top of that, it's a really slick UI, with an awesome mobile and desktop interface. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 --- ### Project Management Can be Better - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Electrical/ Electronic Manufacturing - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used other for less than 6 months - Reviewed: April 2019 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I do not care for Redbooth however my boss likes it so I have to use it. I just wish it was easier platform to learn. This learning curve is hard to negotiate without lots of help from someone who has used it a lot. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 3/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Redbooth is a well built project management application. It is good to have the ability to set up other team members with tasks and completion dates. Receiving the notifications via email is also a helpful experience. #### Cons Unfortunately, I find Redbooth hard to learn. It is a program that is not easy for someone to just pick up and proceed without any instructions. The check items also are not very clear and knowing that you closed a task caused me a lot of issues when I first began using it. --- ### Great tool for Marketing project management - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Richard W. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Real Estate - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for free trial - Reviewed: September 2020 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Very positive and I will continue using it into the future. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros It lists out all of your tasks in multiple different ways depending on the one you choose. Tick boxes and completion lists allow for very easy management of day to day tasks, or even monthly and weekly. #### Cons I can't think of too many cons for this product given my positive review on it. I would say keep tweaking the product but don't change it too much. --- ### Great organizing tool - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Bhavana G. - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: June 2018 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros For any company keeping track of deadlines is an important task, redbooth makes it much easier to do that. It makes everything organized and using templates is a breeze. #### Cons Free version on redbooth only gives us access to two boars, might be difficult for freelancers and people on a budget. --- ### Fantastic! - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Wallace L. Johnson - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: August 2012 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Fantastic Product! After doing months of research with a number of other 4-5 star competitive products i was finally locked in to Teambox due to the overally integration with google apps, dropbox, box and there custom apps solution. The functionality of the product makes it easy to implement to even the non techy folks who need to be part of the project management process. Compared to its competitors and other collaborative solutions no one can beat there price with these features. There is a great team behind there product so it is onl getting better. --- ### Essential tool for managing projects - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Lisa T. - Product usage: Used unspecified for unspecified - Reviewed: March 2015 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered I started using Redbooth about six months ago and have already been amazed by the amount of time I've saved by being able to check Redbooth instead of sifting through hundreds of emails. It has made my projects much easier to manage and organize, and it's super convenient to be able to do everything (chat, tasks, video meetings, etc) all in one place. Pros: Easy and intuitive interface HD video Chat Integrations Tasks: Ability to create, assign, reassign, set due date, change due date, etc. Cons: None so far! #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/redbooth-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- Redbooth Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
