Nice and I am learning New But !!!!!

I never thought there will not be full functions on IPAD OS. Some function recommended to go Mac OS. Only that one make me feel a little bit sad.

Excellent non-traditional project management

In Short is very mature and is almost “quirky” but is an excellent project management tool once you understand what it is. Strongly recommend it.

Worth the money

I needed to create a process flow chart, and didn’t want to pay tons of money for Vizio and the like. Tried a handful of apps and took a gamble and paid for this one. It is clean, easy to use, has a great Progress Chart function. Highly recommend

Looks good but way overly complicated.

You certainly do not want this for a simple project. I’ve been reading chart after chart on how to use it, but have no clue how to do what I want with Gantt charts. If I could return it I would. I’m no novice. I was a division director at the company that developed PERT and have used PERT charts for massive projects.

A Truly Fantastic App

Ok, there is a little bit of a learning curve at first but the app really does an amazing job to help you get through it and become familiar with the UI. Once you do get the hang of using this, it’s wonderful and so very adaptive for creating projects and job work flows. It feels like this app requires much less effort from me to put together something visual for others. I can put more focus on actually thinking of and planning a process. It’s my favorite app for tasking flows, problem solving, and project management. Highly recommended.

Poor customer support, needs better help

Chatoloco

Have requested at times better documentation or video tutorial, but not even a reply. Have had the app for years but just can’t use it, Great with potential but just so hard to learn, excell is hard but I can still learn from video tutorials to do what I want to do. Who better than the developer to show a tutorial, but the walkthrough help file is not a great delivery.

Too Confusing!!!

Consumer Application Advocate (CAA)

I have owned this app for years and I can’t use it. Not intuitive enough and so far from user friendly. If I have to study, research and take forever to learn a program, unfortunately that can not be the program I use or share with my team. I was so excited when this was first released but I could never use it. A real shame. iN SHORT: Business people do not have enough time in a day, month, year, to figure this program out.

Good luck

Good luck trying to figure out how to get started let along getting to use it.

Truly remarkable process maker app.

I never knew this app was so easy and powerful, until I a came across a YouTube video tutorial. It’s a must for business analysts , project managers or anyone who wants to define process and workflow. I wish the developer add more features like collaboration and notification users to other users. Also if the developer uploads some guide of short YouTube videos tutorials to new users.

Replaces over 5+ apps that I use

It's probably about once a year I use an app that stands out to me so much I just have to write a review about it. This past year, it's definitely inShort. I've been an MBA student and a freelance consultant to small businesses of 1-10 people, I don't have a ton of real world application to a good chunk of features this app provides, but my research covers almost every app you can think of. I'm not sure if I would say the learning curve is steep, I always considered the learning curve of OmniFocus to be pretty steep mostly because I could never quite tailor my tasks around the GTD method. As an entrepreneur, I don't have a problem getting things done or prioritizing the various aspects of my life, my clients, and my businesses. What I've always had a problem with is finding a solution that can grow and adapt with myself, my clients, and my businesses. I've used MindNode for quite some time which is a great tool to easily breakdown and structure your thoughts when your mind moves a million miles a second, but the problem I was always left with is being able to export, convert, or transform those mind maps into a real usable workflow without custom creating my own application to process the exportable formats. This is where inShort comes in. It's either as simple as a task manager, or as complex as a project manager like Basecamp, Asana, Wrike, etc. I've love the concept of Trello, but it always fell short when in several areas, namely the early stages of actually creating and organizing a complex workflow. inShort also covers this area by acting as a database schema. Everything is connected giving you the power to create powerful relationships. The only downside so far is that I wish they had an evaluation version on the desktop for students. Although it's a huge bargain at $40, I don't have the money for it yet. I'll update my review after I purchase the desktop version and mess around with it. My advice to Jury Shortki, offer some sort of trial or evaluation version, maybe offer a limited number of objects for free, and then charge a monthly subscription based on the amount of usage someone is getting out of it. $40 is too cheap for someone that is actually using this app, but it's too expensive for someone that isn't using it or is skeptical of its capabilities. The online tool was a great move, at least now you'll be able to track and gain more insights to how and when people are using your app.
