## Reviews

### "Family Management 24/7" — 5.0/5

> **Tab** | *21 November 2019* | Food Production | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: All the templates. I've been a project manager professionally for many years, but as I now apply these same tactics to the ultimate project of rearing children, the plethora of templates I know (and especially those I don't) challenge me to consider different approaches.
> 
> **Cons**: While board management ended up being intuitive, I wish I had just gone through the Welcome Board as suggested from the get go. But instead my proud self wanted to figure it out on my own. I guess this isn't so much of a con, but maybe the Welcome Board should almost be required in some way for your first workspace to really allow users to ramp up.
> 
> Upwave allowed me to truly get a handle on being a father. It started simple as a way for me to plan our activities during my parental leave time alone with my child, but has since transformed as a visible and accountable cloud solution to allow both my wife and I to streamline and balance the many ad hoc tasks of parenting.

### "Very User Friendly" — 4.0/5

> **Sandra** | *12 October 2018* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: I love the ability to connect my google calendar and schedule my tasks within upwave. I also love the 'My Cards' view where I can see only my cards in a calendar view.
> 
> **Cons**: I wish there was the ability to prioritize the cards in the my cards/calendar view. There is also a glitch when I type in the task on the card. If I don't put my cursor to the end of the text and hit enter, the task will only show text up to where I put my cursor. For example, if the task is 'Check email' if I leave my cursor after the work 'Check' and hit enter to close the card, I only see the word 'Check'
> 
> Ever since I've been trained on how to use UpWave properly, I feel way more organized, I can tackle my days with clarity and they are much more productive.

### "Great to keep on top of multiple projects" — 3.0/5

> **Nicole** | *19 May 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: The ease of use when setting up a new board and how customisable it is.
> 
> **Cons**: I haven't come across any limitations in the way I'm using it.

-----

### "The work organization tool I always wanted" — 5.0/5

> **Paul** | *10 March 2017* | Biotechnology | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Versatility, you get to choose how to set it up. Teamwork capabilities, assigning things to other people, comments to communicate. Setting due dates and seeing a personal agenda.
> 
> **Cons**: Uhhh...Ok if I have to say one thing, when you double click a card on your weekly agenda, it opens in the board where that card lives instead of right on the agenda.
> 
> I was using Symphonical a while ago, then Upwave was launched and took it to a whole new level\! Since I've started using Upwave, my entire company has started using it as our main task management and planning tool. I have basically zero problems with it. There was one time I found a bug - I let them know and it was fixed within two days, fantastic\! And the price is completely worth the price.

### "Great Organizational Software with room for growth" — 5.0/5

> **Lorenzo** | *24 February 2017* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10
> 
> **Pros**: Collaboration functionalities and ease of use
> 
> **Cons**: Just a few personal gripes with assigned cards
> 
> I've been using UpWave for a little more than a month now and I have to say, it's great\! There are a few improvements that I'd like to have myself:&#10;&#10;-Having assigned cards show up in my personal board, rather than having to manually copy it from the source board. My coworkers assign me tasks from their board but it's a pain to manually copy it over to mine so I can have everything in one place (unless I'm unaware of some functionality of course\!)&#10;-Assigned cards showing up on a separate screen. This is just a personal gripe, but I want that "due date" feature on the assigned cards board to show up on the same screen as my board. Maybe a pull out menu or something. I don't like having two upwave tabs open, one to view all of my notes and cards on my board and the other to view my assigned cards and due dates for the day/week.&#10;&#10;Other than that, there's a wide selection of customization options similar to Google Keep, but what separates UpWave is its focus on collaboration. It's very easy to get things done within your group when you know what to do, and it's very easy to get someone to finish a task when you know who's doing them\!
