Nozbe (pronounced Noz-bee) is a feature-rich and powerful web application, designed especially for organizing your life using the Getting things done methodology.
The application has been around for over four years now, and the truth is, that it’s mature and pretty stable, marketed mostly as a commercial product, though free, limited accounts can be created by users.
Nozbe has a well designed and fast interface, extremely user friendly, with big buttons and much on-screen space. If you’ve been playing with at least one task management web application, you will need no user manual or further instructions to use it.
One of the most strong advantages on Nozbe, is the simplicity of the user interface. Once setting up your actions in it, you get the feeling that everything is on its place. Projects on the left, contexts on the right and a huge next actions link on top. You can work your lists easily, adding items one by one, or in bulk by entering lists directly and reorder them giving priority to more important actions.
Additionally, project support notes and file attachments, form an enormously useful feature, missing from the majority of GTD managers, although being a vital part on project planning and execution, and Evernote support will make your day: Just tag your notes with your project/context names and there they are just below your lists!
Killer features:
- Complete projects views, including support notes and files of any type
- Multiple actions addition
- Evernote support
- Context icons and project coloring
- Text file backup
- No saved searches, or user defined views
Supported services: Printing, RSS feeds, public lists and project sharing, offline access (experimental), Evernote, twitter, email import, text export, jott, Google Calendar integration, IGoogle, Gmail, netvibes, my Yahoo and mac widget.
Mobile access: Mobile site, iPhone web-based version and iPhone/iPad application (Android app should arrive around March 2011)
Cost: Personal, Family, Team and Business plans ranging from €9.95/1 user to €99.95/100 users per month / Free plan with limitations (6 contexts/projects, 1MB storage)
Conclusion : Nozbe can be characterized as a professional and solid GTD solution, mostly focusing on commercial customers, since the free plan is so limited (especially in the number of projects/contexts) that only a small minority of users could use it effectively, but it is certainly a worthy investment for users with a lot on their lives.
