Cons
Con Free version limited to 20 folders
Con Android app has annoying notifications
Whenever the app fails a background sync action for any reason (server issues, lack of internet connection, etc.), a notification appears.
Con Good as a starting point
Toodledo is a good starting point, but is essentially the same as an Excel spreadsheet where you have to build your workflow via the saved searches.
Con Inconsistent sorting when printing
You can start your tests online, but when you print it comes out differently.
Con Can print calendar or tasks but not both
If you want to see your day, you can see both your tasks and your meetings online. However, you cannot print it altogether as shown online. You have to print two separate things.
