Well, I used OF for good two years (Pro version) and while it served me well, I ultimately found that the way OF implements task management is too focused to micro-management. How nice would that be? I also don't love the iOS app - it's cumbersome and involves too many taps to make it really useful for people looking not to waste time. It's only for Mac, which is a bit of a pain because I'd love to have it available for PC so I could use it across any platform. I love that it quite succinctly puts GTD into effect. I love that I can have task reminders pop up based on date, time, deferred time, location. I love that I can email tasks to my inbox. I love that I can sync Omni with my cell phone so reminders show up in my Omni inbox. I love that I can run simultaneous projects and concurrent tasks, or make it so one task becomes due once I complete a different one. I love the fact that I can set up projects and group them any way I want. I would be more likely to ask what I DON'T like about it, because I like basically everything. It has been invaluable in my professional growth and is definitely credited with my success. It is truly a catchall where I can store professional and personal tasks and projects, where I forecast them out, and where I can perform easy reviews to see where I am stalling and what I need to be working on. Overall, I would say that Omni is the tool I use the most both professionally and personally. In OF3 you have to select so many options just to do this.

Other software I've used let's you just put "water plants every Monday" and it'll set that reminder. Setting repeating tasks is quite fiddly, there are a lot of options.
#OMNIFOCUS FOR PC MANUAL#
The online manual is huge and there's so much to find out. It's too in-depth, if you've never used it or one of Omni's other software it's a heck of a learning curve. It had all the features I needed including setting repeating reminders, ease of adding a task and setting dark mode. However, I have switched to Todoist which meets my needs so much better. The price when I got it was actually great, it was a one-time purchase, not subscription like it is now. If you can get into it properly and can handle how in-depth it is then you'll be fine but it was just too much for me. I tried a dozen to-do apps before purchasing OF3 and stuck with it a few months but the interface wasn't right for me and it was too fiddly and too overwhelming. Fantastic "to-do" software but very in-depth
