I've enjoyed working with GetBusy for all the reasons mentioned in this review. I've also been privileged to work with the management team, and express my comments. They have been attentive and polite; but have their own priorities (of course). That has frustrated me at times, since I know they know what needs to be fixed, But, I am confident that this app will continue to improve, and remain a loyal customer. Faith in the team, as well as the product.

GetBusy fills an important gap. We are a small team - so, while Outlook is an excellent way to assign and stay on top of projects, it is too expensive, resource intensive, and cumbersome. GetBusy makes creating, assigning, and following up on tasks easy. Why isn't this functionality already part of our primary office apps - such as G Suite?

GetBusy's biggest flaw is monitoring and drilling down on tasks. It is not inherently designed to be used in an organization; rather, it is geared toward the single user without regard for organization or monitoring of progress. So, while I can easily assign a series of tasks; there is no way for me to tell if the task is incomplete, partially complete, etc. The UI (user interface) is also not clear enough and requires too much drilling down and to many steps to make changes. But in the most basic sense, it does what it promises - keeps track of you tasks.

GetBusy allows us to easily manage our workload and allocate tasks within the team without needing to send lots of emails. It helps us to understand what each others' priorities are and see when tasks have been completed without needing to chase.

I like how easy it is to organise your to-do list and to pause anything that doesn't need to be actioned that day. I often tell my team to "put things in a box and don't open it until you need to" and that's essentially what the pause functionality allows you to do - forget about something until it's time to do it (whilst being confident that actually nothing has been forgotten)!

The email notifications can get a little annoying, as there's no way to turn them off except if you're logged into the desktop app (for example, I came back from two weeks' holiday to a barrage of emails as I hadn't been logged in on my laptop whilst away).

I have been looking for quite a while now for a piece of software that is easy for my staff to complete tasks and also manage their time more efficiently. I trialed a few other companies but none of them had the simple and fresh look like the GetBusy software. All of my staff and committees have embraced the software and i can see already the effects it has had on the working week.

My staff and I like the ease of use and interface. It is very simple to update a task, especially via a smart phone.

We are using the software to also cover some of our H&S work and some of the features don't quite suit this. However some of the recent updates have helped and with the great customer service i receive, i am able to suggest changes that would further suit the need.

GetBusy helping us getting more organised and boosting productivity while having fun with team and even customers. It’s so easy to add new tasks to our to do list by just using integration with zapier and other apps. In addition customer responses to enquiries is really fast.

Catch up is amazing. You will no longer miss those things that matter the most. The tags enable you to regroup projects and tasks effectively. The ability to set recurring tasks that are then brought into catch up before the due date is also game changer.

Integration with zapier and customer gmail account doesn’t work smoothly but this is not GetBusy’s fault

Does what I need it to do well. It's stripped back functionality means it's easy to onboard and less confusing to use than other more functionality rich tools like Monday and Asana.

- Nice to know that information and attachments you are sending are encrypted, it's safer than email - Allows me to keep on top of tasks that I need to do personally - Allows me to add my own team, as well as external parties into my tasks and delegate responsibility - I like that it automatically nudges people for answers - it saves me a lot of time now i don't need to do that manually - Love that there is an Outlook plugin so i can take emails directly into my GetBusy task list

- Would like to be able to organise connections into groups - I send a lot of large files so being able to add extra capacity for sending would be great - No ability to adjust notification reminders at the moment
