Ayoa Reviews

Summary: I would suggest this to other users. It's a must for collaborative work, remotely.

Positive: Ayoa really helps my coworkers and I stay on task remotely. We are able to send messages and track progress and it is not invasive of everyones individual work schedule.

Negative: I really preferred the previous name DropTask. Ayoa seems a little weird and my brain has a hard time remembering it. I often still refer to it as DropTask.

Summary: I'm really happy with the flexibility it gives me in thinking about my thinking. It is a powerful tool - at a reasonable price.

Positive: Helps me organize my thoughts - easily! I like the style and the way it displays. Creating new maps is easy due to the menu layout and short cuts.

Negative: It's not too easy to change fonts and to add pictures. Improving that functionality would help me.

Summary: As someone who struggles with ADHD and really needs visuals, Ayoa has been a dream come true. I've used almost every to-do list app on the market and have never found one like Ayoa - it was exactly what I needed and I'm never giving it up!

Positive: The canvas feature, where you can arrange your to-do list into bubbles grouped by category, is awesome. The orange and red tags for Priority or Importance draw my eye to the things I need to get done first. Things that I have checked off don't disappear immediately but instead, turn a darker color for a few days before disappearing which allows me to pat myself on the back a bit.

Negative: I wish the canvas view was the default option rather than having to change from the workflow view every time.

Summary: So far, so good. My team seems pleased and more organized when working on shared projects. It’s removed a level of follow up communication that was really taking too much of our brain power on a regular basis.

Positive: There are multiple ways to view tasks and if a team member sets it up one way, you can change your personal view to suit your style. I like that it is colorful, easy to learn and navigate, and has preformatted options for people who don’t know where to start. This is an excellent product for small companies who don’t require all the bells and whistles of a larger, more expensive system. As I work with people on the autism spectrum, I also think this is an excellent platform for the neurodiverse population who may need to be very specific in their visual layout. They also do mind maps which is so great when working through big thought projects remotely. It’s like a whiteboard at your fingertips. Lastly, I’m glad it doesn’t look like a calendar, spreadsheet, or email inbox!

Negative: I would prefer it to integrate fully with G-Suite, not just Gmail. I believe they are continuing to add systems integration and I look forward to that. I also wish they would do the necessary work for HIPAA compliance so we could use the system exclusively for our project work.

Summary: I love all the features of Ayoa. Support has been wonderful and responsive any time I've reached out.

Positive: Ayoa has many features that I haven't even begun to use, but I love the Task Boards. I use them to add items to my To-Do lists so I stay on track. All the paper sticky notes on my desk are starting to disappear!

Negative: I can use Ayoa across multiple platforms seamlessly (computer, web, iPad, iPhone) and it syncs instantaneously. However, I do have difficulty at times because the interfaces are slightly different between platforms and I get lost finding the correct item or tool. Also some features are not available yet for mobile devices (whiteboards).

Summary: Really love the tool and how everything is saved in the cloud. Easy to share the mindmaps and collaborate with multiple team members.

Positive: Really fantastic tool for mindmapping, creating vision boards and collaborating. Absolutely love it.

Negative: Way images are rendered in the mindmaps. Would love to have more control on the shape and sizes.

Summary: If you’re a C level executive Ayoa will help you manage it all and create amazing collaboration with your teams. Great easy to learn solutions your can deploy quickly.

Positive: Easy to learn and deploy a must have if you want to grow your company. From the UI to being able to use on any devise the Ayoa team has thought of everything.

Negative: Hard to find a reason not to use this product. Maybe the more tools to share ideas to outside users.

Summary: This is a very valuable tool. I keep it open on a separate screen and refer to it through the day. What do I have to do? What have I forgotten? What is that book I wanted? It's all there for me, just bubbling up.

Positive: The visual effect of having bubbles and bubbles of bubbles showing your tasks, ideas and facts is very powerful. You can quickly drag and drop or color code to add distinction to items. It's easy to use and to understand.

Negative: I would like to be able to specify my own color palette. Besides round bubbles, having other shapes could help distinguish items.

Summary: Overall this is the best purchase i made as without it i would be lost! I have recommended this to my family and friends and everyone is loving it!

Positive: Love the ease of use and the simplicity of the app. Makes it easy to quickly write my todo for the day and manage it on iPad, iOS, Windows and Android! Anywhere & everywhere.

Negative: Would love it if it has an Alexa/Siri integration.

Summary: This is a fantastic tool for orienting on what matters most without losing sight of other tasks. The ability to re-order tiers of urgency and importance is very useful.

Positive: You can create a task and organize it by time or by category, and that is a MAJOR advantage. I can think of all the tasks in one area of responsibility at a time, listing them out. Then I can see all the top priorities across areas in one dashboard. I can then pull out what's most urgent in the big-picture sense and easily escalate or downplay tasks as my situation changes.

Negative: The single thing I would like the software to do that I don't think it can manage is an archival system, tracking my completed tasks so I can look back and see when I finished them.

Summary: A good tool to map day-to-day business operations and collaborate to create powerful plans/flows for meetings, processes, tasks, etc.

Positive: SaaS solution; very easy to use; Allows collaboration with multiple users with live sharing feature.

Negative: Not much was lacking. Some of the really cool features are in the highest tier licensing (kind of expected!)

Summary: Best website for students and teachers. easy way to convey messages and educate others with mind maps and charts.

Positive: Mind map is the best thing in the website. i got many rewards in schools by using it (for competition and many more resources).

Negative: Nothing...... just fix some bugs. If the bugs are fixed this is the best.

Summary: Software I use throughout my day. I can't think of another package that has its blend of functions. I would have to buy two or three programs to replace it.

Positive: As I began using Ayoa's software throughout my day, I realized that a slight tweak could mean that my calendar could also be part of project and task planning. I was thrilled with that and then realized that the ability to send emails that needed follow up could be sent directly into the system.

Then I realized that complex writing projects could easily be broken down using the mind mapping section. I already was a big mindmap booster, and to be honest, there is more there than I will ever get to use.

Despite all the functions, there isn't a steep learning curve. You can begin using Ayoa almost immediately and begin activating different functions over time.

Also, the onboarding was done at the level of packages costing thousands.

Negative: The pace of change has been incredible over the last 18 months. The company could benefit from more frequent mailings about changes, but they over communicate everywhere else so it's a minor nit. On the whole, I would rather have the constant product improvements!

Summary: My experience has been lovely--great UI, great export options, great visualizations. I love all the integrations with other tools--makes it full of potential!

Positive: I have used this tool for my personal encouragement of creativity--mapping out different ideas to figure out what path to take!

Negative: I really love it so far! The features are above what I need-from a team perspective. I really love the Mind mapping benefits!

Summary: Overall I like it very much it needs a few features, better hotkey support. If you are into whiteboards and mindmaps this is the GTD for you.

Positive: I liked the full range of services, whiteboard, mindmaps, daily pulse etc. Even has a canvas flow for your tasks which is just amazing. The customer service is fast too, takes care of your issues. it's just $17 a month for pro.

Negative: Not much hotkey support, search isn't that great. It needs more features that a lot of the major Get Things Done software companies do.
