      My boss, the CFO, loves smartsheets. I can see why he loves it; it is a lot like Excel. I, on the other hand, would prefer basecamp or similar. I had no idea that smartsheets was as expensive as it is. I saw the monthly charge on the Amex statement for last month and it was over $5K! Now, I don't know how many users he has setup on it, but I haven't logged into mine for about 2 months now.

        What level of project management are you wanting? There is quite a range there. There is something at the level of checkboxes in Evernote/OneNote all the way up to full MS Project.

            @dafyre Looks like your basic list-of-checkboxes.

            Can the tasks have subtasks? Can they have a description and extra text/comments added to them, or attachments?

            I admin my needs seem to be complex. Or not?

            I use the word "todo" but I don't mean one sentence with a checkbox next to it. I'm not making a shopping list. So I do want the extra project management stuff to go along with it like subtasks, organization by folders or projects or clients or whatever term they use.
            I do like subtasks to help split up longer tasks. And a good description field for comments and notes. If it can track start and end dates, that's fine. Priority levels, cool, tags, ok, comment stream, nice, attachments handy.

            Producteev worked well and it was probably very similar to Asana and those direct competitors. Guess I can try free version of Asana, see what kind of limits I run into.

              I've used both Asana and Nozbe. They both seemed fine.

                If you're using Zoho for email, they have a decent basic task system as well.

                    I do use it personally and for my home business but not in the context I'm talking about.

                    I'm giving Asana free version a try. If that doesn't cut it I'll just have to spring for yearly Todoist.

                      @guyinpv Asana has a pretty high ceiling so you should be able to make it work for you. ToDoist is what I use from time to time and i always liked it

                          Yeah, you can do Subtasks, absolutely.

                          My issue is that it only shows the Subtask start dates on a calendar, or if you click on one of them.
