Time Management
NortaBirdo, 2015-12-23 11:40:24

What electronic organizer do you recommend?

Please advise a tool for personal use.
Purpose : I want to get away from the paper diary, and put together disparate materials and tasks that lie in different services. Now I use trello + evernote + google keep + google calendar + paper diary + sticky notes + plus a notepad for timekeeping.
Such functions should be:
Platforms: web + android
Critical functions:
1. Project management (in trello - boards)
2. Maintenance of project lists (in trello - lists)
3. Issue management (in trello - stickers)
4. Maintenance of task attributes : name, description, checklist, priority, label, attack, comments
5. Keeping time for a task
6. Keeping simple lists (books, movies, etc.)
7. Possibility to organize classic three lists within a week: today, week, later. And replenish these lists with tasks from projects. (Kanban-style mechanics)
8. Action and event
reminders 9. Task deadlines
10. Google calendar integration
11. Task auto-repeat
12. Copying the entire list of checkboxes between tasks
13. Moving tasks between lists on the same drug'n'drop board.
14. Moving tasks between boards through the dialog box
15. Offline mode (for android)
16. Export cards to free format (csv/xml/json, etc.). I do not want to lose all the information along with the service.
Important
1. Maintaining the actual time spent (personal time tracker like jiffy)
2. Contacts management
3. Personal knowledge base (or convenient integration with evenote, see below)
4. Notebook
5. Personal notes like diary/google keep stickers
Optional cases
1. Integration with several mailboxes (ideal: acting as a mail aggregator , minimal: the ability to turn a letter into a task)
2. Viewing completed for the period
3. Printing and exporting a card
4. Marks of completion in the android widget
5. Calendar widget for android (if there is no integration with Google Calendar)
6. Reminders on android as an alarm clock
7. One-click integration with evernote
8. Integration with https://www.mindmeister.com/ru(mindmap), or such functionality, or integration with another similar service
9. Maintaining a system of time slots
10. Password access (in android)
It is unlikely that something free exists (although if it does, it's very cool), so paid tools are fully considered. In descending order of payment preference:
1) one-time in rubles
2) one-time in dollars
3) subscription in rubles
4) subscription in dollars
Thank you in advance

This will no longer be an organizer, but some kind of monster. If it existed, it would either become so popular that it would replace trello, evernote, google calendar, etc., or (more likely) it would never take off.
I advise you to try Jira (with plugins it can satisfy most of your criteria) or write your own "organizer".

Interesting topic, thanks for the detailed question.
I myself recently wondered about finding a similar thing for work and personal life. I don't think it's possible to find one like this. I'm thinking of making my own. I like most of what you described, plus I have the main idea - tasks can be infinitely divided into subtasks. Plus contests at least "Work" - work projects, "Home" - tasks / chores around the house, "Entertainment" and so on ... so that when you return home and open the same account, work projects do not flicker before your eyes.
So far, thoughts about the service are only for myself, but if done as a service for everyone, I would like to make universal entities from which a person could customize the system for himself, since the requirements are very different for everyone, one thing is important to someone, something else. There is hardly a universal service as you describe, but I want everything to be in one place - more convenient. That's why I'm thinking about minimal universal entities. Even the same evernote people use differently. Or like dryupal in which you can create your own entities without programming, although the minus of such systems is that for users the entry threshold is increased.
There are also a couple of counter questions.
1) You mentioned mindmap, what kind of integration would you like to have with it? just links to documents?
Initially, I generally imagined my organizer as a super mindmap, all entities are nodes of one big tree (but with different visualization), some nodes become documents themselves. I liked Mindmap due to its visibility, I even started making a frontend for it, but then I refused.
But the mindmap is good for thinking through the project in detail, I use it sometimes, but offline.
2) "Personal knowledge base". this is also missing, I would like to hear your suggestions, how you see it more conveniently and how it can be integrated with the rest. how is the base itself? just text documents in a tree structure?
now I also use partly evernout to capture web pages, partly txt files in dropbox, partly bookmarks in chrome, since they were finally made with folders. I want to be in one place. In one Evernote, everything somehow doesn’t take root, my docks are mostly code snippets, I want markdown and not wysiwyg, there are still abstracts of books, courses, and they are already better in mindmap, plus other formats. Until I figured out the best way, dropbox only helps out.
3) "Integration with evernote "in one click"" did not quite understand what is meant. just a link to the dock in evernote?
in principle, he has an api through which it would be possible to download and edit notes on the service by saving them there.
4) a good idea of ​​integration with mail and in principle it is not difficult, it is possible even with auto-notifications of the sender about the task statuses.
5) Do you plan any kind of training? for example, they found an interesting book, course, article, there is no time to study right away and it is not clear when the time for it will come out. it would be convenient to save somewhere a reminder, so that next time, instead of procasting, get down to business. Same with new ideas, write them down so you can think about them later. at the same time, it seems to me that one list is not enough, I want to break it into different categories. But such things should periodically appear in front of your eyes in the background, like advertising banners on websites.
6) and the fundamental difference between
3. Personal KB (or convenient integration with evenote, see below)
4. Notebook
5. Personal notes like a diary / google keep stickers is not entirely clear.
What do you think is the peculiarity of each type?
for myself, there is still an idea to add some achievements and points (gamification) for completing tasks, but this is for self-motivation, just to diversify and make the process more fun. A lot of routine, and a lot of tasks, so that your hands do not give up, you need to see progress, drop by drop, but things are moving forward. In part, the time log and various graphs will also help here.
plus I want different features, such as api, for external control, the progress of the task, depending on all subtasks.
PS as a result, I also want a tool for myself in which on one page you can see all the pressing matters, first of all the most important and with the ability to quickly find any detailed information if necessary. The service is not obliged to store all the data in itself, the main thing is that it is possible to make an overview of everything in it, as a starting point for any business + the state of affairs.

Try Teamwork .
Despite the name, I use it for myself alone.
not sure about points 14-16 - but all the rest are present in my opinion.
Of the important:
- in doubt Contact Manager. There seems to be "client management" - but I did not use it
from "Optional cases":
123 is
456 - there is an application for android - but I did not try the functionality.
there is an extension for google chrome - a screen of functionality - https://yadi.sk/i/-HE1fOdGmipLh
there is an extension for google mail - a screen of functionality - https://yadi.sk/i/Grqq8TJjmipRE
