They both signed up, and both later upgraded to paid accounts. I’ve shown Nozbe to a couple people (both of them were non-GTD folks), and their comment is was “that just makes sense”. What else really matters in this discussion? The bottom line is that Nozbe helps me get things done better than Toodledo does. Most of the rest of the features are about the same in both places - after all, they’re both based on GTD. Nozbe just redid their forums and hopefully that’ll help, but Toodledo has thousands of posts in theirs and it’s a great resource. Again, it’s coming soon (within a few weeks, hopefully), but Toodledo has it today.

Nozbe has an excellent iPhone-formatted site, but no native app. Nozbe has a big redesign coming soon, but Toodledo looks a little better today. Toodledo has some great things going for it: Not only that, but they need to pay for an account to be able to edit items in the shared folder. You can share folders, but that gets strange if I only want to share a certain project with someone, since it’s just a task in a folder - I have to share the entire folder. That means you can collaborate with users on small things without them having to pay for an account.

They do it on a per-project basis, and free accounts are allowed five projects. That way I can just view the “Work” folder at work and it gets the job done, but it still leads to the problems I mentioned before.īoth sites allow you to collaborate on items, but Nozbe’s implementation is a little better. The workaround is the same as above - use folders for broad categories, then use tasks and sub-tasks for your projects.

With Toodledo, there is no good way to do that. When I get to work, I can pull up my Next Actions page, filter by “Work” and only see actions from projects that I’ve tagged for work. With Nozbe, they can have tags and descriptions. With Toodledo, your folders have names and no other data. However, they’re missing the key one - filtering projects. Toodledo has some incredible filters - far better than Nozbe’s. Not a huge deal, but it makes it a royal pain to scroll through a list and see what I need to be working on. Now I see folders titled things like “My Sites” with a bunch of starred tasks, but I don’t know which site each task is for unless I click on it. Using folders as projects, I could see the folder name (“My Site #1”) and the starred tasks (Next Actions) for it. Why use a hacked-together solution for a problem that Nozbe solves perfectly? The other problem is that it makes it hard to see exactly what project each task is for. With Toodledo, you can create sub-tasks (which is great!), thus making that system work. Many Toodledo users create basic folders instead (such as “Home”, “Work”, etc) and then create a Task for each project. The issue is that it is hard to view all of them at once when you have more than 6 or 8 of them going (and I have about 30). Nozbe has Projects, and it lists them down the side. 🙂 I came close to switching over to it, but eventually decided to stay with Nozbe. I liked it enough that I decided to dive in and run them both for a few days, which made me very unproductive. I tried quite a few, but the only one that came close was Toodledo. I found Nozbe, realized that it was GTD based, watched some of their videos, and then eventually got the GTD book and dove in.Īfter I realized I was a fan of GTD (and not necessarily Nozbe), I started looking for alternatives to make sure I wasn’t missing something better. I wanted a web-based to-do list with great iPhone support. In fact, that’s what got me interested in GTD. It does not store any personal data.I’ve been a Nozbe fan from day one.
