We used to go to one in Sonoma County. I would have thought these were pretty common but apparently it was one of only 6 listed in California on the wikipedia page https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_gravity_hills
Yeah we are a small team so haven't been able to properly build out mobile yet. The apps are really to make it easy to add new tasks and view your existing ones. We'd love to grow the team and work on mobile soon.
That's an interesting space. Our current users tend to be working at earlier stage startups so we don't hear a lot about EAs but certainly for enterprise clients I could see how this would be a killer feature.
I was just thinking about this actually because I had something cancelled in the afternoon and wanted to just move everything forward by two hours. We'll add it to the roadmap!
We have a Gmail integration where you can star an email, and then it syncs to Taskable as a task (and links back to the original email). Once checked off, it also archives the gmail message.
That way you can star things that require follow up, and get to them later, and archive the rest.
We have a lot more to build on the email side of things - such as surfacing important emails for you, or even being able to respond quickly to emails right from Taskable so you go to your inbox less, where you can get sucked down rabbit holes very easily.
I would have agreed with you a couple months ago, and we didn't ever plan to build this feature. But a lot of users requested it, and I started doing it myself, and it does actually work really well for me to timebox specific tasks rather than timeblock chunks of my day. I never followed the latter when I tried it, but when I have timeboxed specific tasks in my calendar it works for me and for a lot of our users as well.
It's definitely not for everyone. I actually get motivation from having the deadline coming up to buckle down and try to finish the thing I am doing in the time allotted. So for me it helps with flow, but I understand that isn't universal for.
Yeah - I find this super important too. I readjust my calendar entries based on actual time I spent on something so I can reflect on it later in the day.
As mentioned, we are going to add in insights/analytics for this reason
Hey Nikola - we don't yet support Outlook but it's something we are planning to do in the next couple weeks.
Indeed you are right - we've generally steered away from enterprise users because of those reasons, and instead target startups/SMEs because generally the person using our product is also an admin.
However, we do want to target enterprises eventually so at some point we'll have to figure all that out.
Thanks for trying it out and sharing feedback! We love to hear from users, particularly about things we can improve on so appreciate you taking the time.
I agree 100% - this happened to me yesterday in fact when we were looking at Paddle for payment/subscription processing and signing up/finding out the pricing required speaking with sales, so we decided to not keep looking into it.
You can, but it requires a lot more admin of copying and pasting tasks/descriptions into your calendar from your task or project manager, and having to maintain/update in two separate tools.
For people not using task or project managers, often the calendar is enough (and indeed becomes their task manager). However, if you have tasks coming from everywhere, we make it super easy to do timeblocking quickly/efficiently.
Hey thanks for the feedback. We are certainly not trying to hide the pricing - as it happens we created a new landing page specifically for this new feature and I forgot to put the pricing on it (I'll do that now).
Our pricing currently has a free tier where you don't get any of the premium integrations, or a $5 tier where you do. However, we are changing it to a flat $10 per month pricing plan next week so you can get a bit of a deal for the next 6 months if you sign up now.
We do indeed reduce friction through the integrations, bringing your calendar together with tasks from project management tools like Jira, Shorcut, Trello, GitHub, Asana, Slack, and even email.
In terms of helping you do better estimation - we aren't addressing that directly yet with this first version. However, we do have plans to build in better insights/analytics that will help you better understand where your time is being spent, and how accurate you are with your estimations (time allotted versus time spent). We'd even love to build a feature that learns and begins to suggest expected time for certain tasks.
Do you have suggestions for what to ask for from users when getting a testimonial? Or just let them run wild with it?
