Pagico Reviews

I migrated my todo workflow from Omnifocus to this app. I love this app's architecture on OSX, as it offers tremendous flexibility with tagging, linking, doc import and indexing; all in one workspace! The iOS app falls very short of being a serious complement to the OSX version. The first issue is a woefully buggy sync engine. It really doesn't work, which make Pagico useless if you are using it with the OSX app. Nevertheless, the developer is very responsive and I am hopeful that he will get get the bugs worked out. Until he does, I would consider this a beta app at best.

Pagico is missing a lot of features that are shown in the preview screenshots. I can’t find a calendar view anywhere, no Agenda or Flowchart views, and I can’t even find any way to get to settings. No idea what’s going on with Pagico, and it has me doubting if I want to purchase the Mac app (currently trying it out with the trial) Really disappointed that a non-functioning iPad app may ruin an otherwise good solution

These days mobile is the most important platform. I have spent good money on desktop and mobile versions of expensive, powerful apps like this app and Omnifocus only to be let down by weak, unstable mobile versions. Couldn't get past go with this app; it was very temperamental about whether to allow Touch ID or not, and trying to save my first task it just hung on 'Saving'. Had similar problems (crashes, corrupt databases) with Omnifocus. Keep ending up back on Todoist; it may be less powerful but it just works.

App will not login. App will not create account. App won't confirm/deny or even send error message.
Small orange 'buffering' symbol appears (sometimes)...and...that's it.

Deleted. Reinstalled. Reset iPad. Restarted iPad. Checked for updates. Device fully charged.

this app just doesn’t work.

Could not edit a task. What’s worse, all of bottoms could not work unless the calendar permission is given.
When I allow Pagico read my calendar and want to edit a existing task, the title will become the “ valentine’s day “

But it’s super glitchy. The time scroller for setting the times of the day in settings doesn’t show any numbers. I can hear the scrolling noise when I swipe my finger, but can’t see anything. Importing a contact was stuck on Saving... pressing Cancel and checking the Contacts section resulted in seeing that the contact was imported after all. Pressing Done when creating a Project didn’t do anything. I pressed it several times and nothing. Then I pressed Cancel, and could see the list of about a dozen projects with the same name that I apparently just created. I couldn’t get any further than this.

Ok, that was harsh, but...first...this app the desktop application is a terrific application. It’s got some super annoying quirks and bizarre interactions, but nothing that’s a show-stopper.

The iOS app on the other hand. What a piece of garbage.

The UI is absolutely unintuitive, and sometimes unresponsive:
* To go back a screen, I often have to tap the back arrow 3-5 times (target area is too small)
* If I’m inside a project and I turn the “mentions” switch off, the mentions disappear, but the switch doesn’t move until it’s tapped 5-7 times again
* URL linking schemes are not recognized (like Evernote:///) although they are on the desktop app, it’s the mobile side where they are the most useful, and they don’t work.
* Long lists cannot be collapsed.
* Lists cannot be moved around (reordered) within their project; the items of the list can be reordered, not the lists themselves.
* On the iPad, the use of space - especially in landscape mode - is quite possibly the worst thing I’ve ever seen.

...and so much more.

I really do like the desktop app, but as I become more mobile, I’ve started looking for replacements, because this app Mobile makes me want to kick puppies every time I use it.

TL;DR: this app is a powerful task/project manager, and if all you need from mobile is to check on status, or capture some small update, you can live with Pagico.

But if you’re a heavy mobile user, you might want to look at apps where more thought (any thought really) was put into the UI/UX.

I have been testing Pagico system on computer, iPad and iPhone, and I have been comparing it against OmniFocus. It is a very well designed app. I really the way they adapt each app to the device. iPhone has a limited view with more advanced views on iPad and computer, each making maximal usage of the available screen real estate. All of it is very intelligently done. I feel this program is much better at making me focus on important tasks than OmniFocus. The Dashboard view really gives a nice overview of what I need to do. I feel this is the killer sleeper task organizer compared to Things and OmniFocus.

But I have given up on Pagico . The syncing (which ironically is the only thing you pay for) is totally broken. I complete a task on one device, and it will never be completed on another device. I add a new task on one device, and never know which device it will show up on. To do an at least incomplete sync, I have to crash Pagico several time. Yet, even then I can never trust what it tells me. For example, right now I have a project that shows up on my computer and iPad, but not at all on my iPhone. So, you risk that task are forgotten.

Are you guys still supporting Pagico and planning to do major updates? I've purchased the desktop app and am mostly happy with it, but the iOS just feels like an afterthought, which to be fair, should be better than desktop. Most folks spend 75% of their productive time on the go and Pagico is laggy, unresponsive, slow to sync and could use some tender loving UX/UI care.

As a creative director of websites and mobile apps, I am this app's biggest fan because I see the potential... but that's all you guys have going at the moment. Potential. This could be an AMAZING tool if given the right attention.

Are you guys interested in working with other designers who are also actual day-to-day users of Pagico ? I think it would be a brilliant idea. I'd love to help!

Hoping for the best... we're all rooting for this app!

Had some initial trouble signing in, discovered that an old standing account with this app was causing confusion. Once I got that sorted out was pleasantly surprised by improvements in iOS (iPad and iPhone) and desktop app. Would get 4 stars if notes on iPhone scrolled properly--longer notes will show only several lines of multi-paragraph entry.

Changing to a new project management / to do system can be a daunting task. You need to learn how the tool works and how it can integrate into your workflow, where the software limits are and workarounds needed to keep your projects moving. While I have not been using this app very long, I am pleasantly surprised with the software. I like the combination of a calendar, project management and task lists.

The iPad version is the best of the three variations I have been working with (iphone and Mac being the other two).

It seems like there is a good amount of functionality that I have not yet worked with, but what I have is working well.

I contacted them with a support question and received a reply back within a day.

4 stars.

this app is really stepping it up! In my opinion this app is THE most underrated PIM out there. The developers clearly know what they're doing and are EXTREMELY responsive when contacted. I'm rooting for you this app! Syncing issues from previous versions are gone. I can't wait to see how this app evolves...

Really impressed with this system, definitely well thought out and actively developed.

At first I wrote. I may have too many contacts over 2400. Too slow almost unusable. Gave two stars.

I messed it up by being impatient. Gave it 3 more stars.

Works beautiful now and fast.

This is a beautifully designed app from a dedicated company that has been building and perfecting this app for many years. It’s truly unique among the productivity apps available for Apple devices, but just as easy to use and reliable as any competing app. Also, the cost is very reasonable.

this app has a beautiful design and a very intuitive layout. I was using Evernote but there was no need for me to continue using it if I have this app. So far I'm very pleased with it and highly recommend it. I've used several note taking apps but I'm very comfortable with this app. Also I was using an app called Due for reminders but why continue when I have both note taking and reminders in one app? The sync functions work great and I also have all my notes and reminders on my Mac. Great job N17, Look forward to versions 9, 10, 11, 12, etc :-)

I usually don't write a review. So, this is very rare case. I really love Pagico and want many people to know and use it. You can handle complex tasks and projects together by using Pagico . Its unique visualization feature helps you to understand status very clearly. It supports cross-platform: Mac OS X, iOS, Windows. I admit that Pagico is not great as much as Mac OS version, but I give 5 stars considering its potential and key peace to connect each other platform.

Took me a while to find it. I'm glad I kept looking. This is the perfect combination of project and document management. It's replaced two separate apps and simplified my life. I can move seamlessly from the desktop in my office to iPad at meetings and all of my projects, tasks and documents come with me. I don't understand why this multiplatform task/project/document management solution doesn't get the attention it deserves.

I used all top selling To Do apps on the market. This is a great app for anyone who is interested in focus on tasks across devices. Pagico is unique with the ability to add attachment and sync with desktop apps. No one does that. It needs little UI improvements here and there. Overall i am impressed. I love the Zapier integration.

Any questions or problems you run across these guys are on it. I use the software on my Mac, iPhone, and iPad. All seamlessly sync. I really like the ability to drag and drop emails on my Mac to the software as tasks. Than I can review them on my iOS devices.
