Changing to a new project management / to do system can be a daunting task. You need to learn how the tool works and how it can integrate into your workflow, where the software limits are and workarounds needed to keep your projects moving. While I have not been using Pagico very long, I am pleasantly surprised with the software. I like the combination of a calendar, project management and task lists. The iPad version is the best of the three variations I have been working with (iphone and Mac being the other two). It seems like there is a good amount of functionality that I have not yet worked with, but what I have is working well. I contacted them with a support question and received a reply back within a day. 4 stars.

I have been testing this app system on computer, iPad and iPhone, and I have been comparing it against OmniFocus. It is a very well designed app. I really the way they adapt each app to the device. iPhone has a limited view with more advanced views on iPad and computer, each making maximal usage of the available screen real estate. All of it is very intelligently done. I feel this program is much better at making me focus on important tasks than OmniFocus. The Dashboard view really gives a nice overview of what I need to do. I feel this is the killer sleeper task organizer compared to Things and OmniFocus. But I have given up on the app. The syncing (which ironically is the only thing you pay for) is totally broken. I complete a task on one device, and it will never be completed on another device. I add a new task on one device, and never know which device it will show up on. To do an at least incomplete sync, I have to crash the app several time. Yet, even then I can never trust what it tells me. For example, right now I have a project that shows up on my computer and iPad, but not at all on my iPhone. So, you risk that task are forgotten.

But it’s super glitchy. The time scroller for setting the times of the day in settings doesn’t show any numbers. I can hear the scrolling noise when I swipe my finger, but can’t see anything. Importing a contact was stuck on Saving... pressing Cancel and checking the Contacts section resulted in seeing that the contact was imported after all. Pressing Done when creating a Project didn’t do anything. I pressed it several times and nothing. Then I pressed Cancel, and could see the list of about a dozen projects with the same name that I apparently just created. I couldn’t get any further than this.
