You won’t miss this function while you are in front of your MAC, because of it’s deep system wide, integration. The Number one feature is designated email, where you can send stuff to your inbox. OmniFocus flaws: Even though OmniFocus is great, there are some features that I miss terribly. Omni Sync is a bit sluggish, but it gets the job done. I assume there will also be an option in the future that will allow iCloud sync. It offers also WebDAV syncing service, along with Mobile Me. I am not impressed, but the service is still in beta and for this kind of pricey software, sync should remain free as a function. I have chosen to give Omni Group a try with their free beta syncing service. Sync: Now there are couple of solutions offered for your sync. I know that iPhone 4s users are in for the threat, because Siri is already integrated, so you can input your tasks into OmniFocus instead of default reminders. It can show you your tasks right on the map. Spectacular thing about iPhone app is that it has geo located contexts. Collection of information on the go, with the help of audio recording and pictures. Allows reminders, and bunch of other things. Forecasts is great, it helps me manage on the go, integrates perfectly into the calendar. IPhone client: My all time favorite, pocket client. I will try reinstalling the application, and see if it’s only happening on my end, or it’s indeed a bug. It won’t show your calendar events in Forecasts on iPad. And I assume quite a bunch of money, while adding value respectively. And Omni Group made a hit with this product.
Seems that anyone who is following Apple design guidelines when it comes down to app creation, is having massive success. It has a SLICK design, which is following the Apple philosophy of simplicity, and intuitiveness. I didn’t have a choice, but I was happy with it. I wasn’t ready to pay 40$ to get it, but once it already happened, I was totally cool with it. It is truly amazing, and worth the money. So far, I know that the development of the new desktop client has been stalled in order to finish up and brush the iPad application. IPad client: This is the area where you can see how much effort Omni Group is putting into their new products. The Asian Efficiency guys are having a neat trick, with the use of additional program that is basically a maid for your OS X, deleting unnecessary files. OmniFocus backups can be quite big, as they add up through time, so you should watch out on that. One of the power user tips I recommend is to actually save your Omnifocus backups in your Dropbox folder, so you have your OmniFocus database with you, even in case you aren’t near your computer. I am using dashboard frequently, so I find it awesome. What I found amazing, and great, is that some guy wrote a widget for OS X Dashboard that lets you clip with ease. You have to give it some effort, prior to utilizing it properly.
OMNIFOCUS FREE TRIAL HOW TO
The desktop application seems great for capturing information and web clipping, but learning how to use it efficiently has it’s own learning curve. I will review all three parts of this state of the art software.ĭesktop Client: This is the weakest link in the OmniFocus chain. Omnifocus is a robust database, but it has great features. Omnifocus is a near perfect task manager, especially for “GTD” practitioners. Since I basically migrated from Evernote, I have some major complaints about Omnifocus, but also I have major kudos as well. While this keeps it limited for anyone who isn’t totally under Apple umbrella, it has it’s own advantages. You can only get OmniFocus on iOS and OS X. First thing that made me think whether OmniFocus is good or not, was that it’s Apple only credo, that they follow for so long.
