Pros
Pro Offers lots of granularity in task management
Tasks are grouped in task lists and can have subtasks. Each task list can be assigned to a particular set of users, aligned with a milestone and have notes. Each task in the task list can have a description, a start and a due date, attachments, priority, manually set progress, followers, dependencies, be assigned to a particular set of users and set to repeat. Each subtask has the same configurable properties except instead of the ability to assign people, subtasks can be commented on.
Pro Each project has only the required functionality
It's possible to limit projects only to the necessary features so that unnecessary functionality doesn't get in the way and clutter up the interface.
Pro Good assortment of features
Gantt charts, calendar and an easy overview of huge amount tasks.
Pro Streamlined for Getting Things Done
Designed specifically for the Getting Things Done methodology as created by David Allen.

Cons
Con Provides too much detail for small projects
Amount of granularity for tasks can be overwhelming for small projects or teams.
Con No native OS X & Windows apps
There are currently no native apps for Windows or OS X, although the company has claimed to be working on them.
Con The Pro service tier still does not have common features
Common features such as notifications and sharing between applications aren't available, even in the Pro-tier. Its only native integration with other applications is adding tasks via a specialized email address generated for your account.
