Task Management
Andrey Kuntsevich, 2012-10-08 12:36:28

I am looking for a multifunctional Time Manager

Requirements:
Most important

  • Synchronization (collaboration)
  • Accounting for work on a task/project MOST PRINCIPALLY IMPORTANT
    • Setting a time budget
    • Elapsed time tracking
    • Remaining time display
    • Remaining time display
    For example, in September you need to allocate 30 hours for a run. and running every day does not come out, but the norm must be fulfilled. Therefore, every time you come back from a run, you need to be able to mark the time for today (at least 15 minutes at least 3 hours) and keep track of how much time is left
  • Groups, tags, types and/or any other ordering system (at the same time ~10 projects in progress, each with up to 5 tasks)
  • For each task: subtasks, stages
  • Either web interface or clients under win, linux (gnome|unity), android


Required:
  • Appointment of performers
    • One
    • group
    • group with responsible
  • Planning
    • Scheduled Tasks
    • Monthly (optionally weekly and other interval) tasks
    • Scheduling
    • Distribution of working hours per week/month
    • Distribution of free time per week/month
  • Comments

Desirable:
  • Elementary helpdesk functions (associating a task with a customer via email)
  • All kinds of statistics
  • Execution conditions (automatically set the status of the task completed when all stages / subtasks are completed)
  • Task Templates
  • Progressbars for tasks with a given time budget:
    • Done
    • Should have been done
    For example, in October you need to spend 10 hours of lectures on %topic% in the organization %org%. By October 15, 2 hours worked. Therefore, the "Should have been done" bar would be 50% ahead of the "Done" bar at 20%.
  • Knowledge Bases


What I found myself
Now I use TaskCoach . It supports the "Most Important" except for the client under android (and there is no web interface) and synchronization (it's terrible there), Partially "Necessary" and some of the "Desirable". In addition, the client under win is damn clumsy (the interface settings fly off)

I tried various task managers:
Asana
Google Tasks and Google Calendar
Another thousand small and not very famous ones (a third of them were promoted on Habrahabr. Some were even created in the CIS countries)
But in them none of them “Accounting for work on a task / project” not to mention the absence or terrible implementation of other required functions

Other ServiceDesk
Tried GLPIBut there is almost nothing from “The Most Important” or not, and if there is, it is very curtailed and monstrously implemented. But there is a web interface and, accordingly, synchronization and the ability to work together.

Now all the functions that I need from ServiceDesk (assigning tasks, comments, linking to soap, and the ability to communicate with the customer) are implemented through osTicket . Everything that I need from ServiceDesk is implemented in it with much less blood than in GLPI.

PS As many have already guessed, the requirements are justified by the specifics of the work of ServiceDeska, or rather the incoming admins. Perhaps this information will help you understand the concept of what I'm looking for. Or maybe one of the fellow workers will share links and best practices

To some extent, you can also use www.mylifeorganized.net/
But this program (I myself have been using it for a very long time) is rather for individual use.

Personally, I use the Miniplane. It is quite enough for conducting personal affairs and projects. The account is completely free and without ads.
A very cool thing is the clock, if the calendar slowed down a little less, it would be generally fine.

At one time, too, I went through a bunch of solutions to suit my requirements. Have not found.
And then, taking the ideology of adaptive case management as a basis, they bungled a modular solution that makes 80% of the classic methods on the go, and, if desired, can be easily added to everything else, because based on the world's most popular web platform casepress.org/features
