Cons
Con Monthly fee for extra features
You generally must pay a monthly fee to support a group with additional features, integration options, and memberships cap increases (however, unfunded community organizations can apply to use it for free, and non-profits with a budget receive a discount.)
Con Beta interface is confusing for first-timers
The interface is very opinionated (this is a good thing). But it is not obvious how to map user's own GTD variant onto the one the author has in mind. Maybe after it is in production, there will be better on-boarding.
