Can do practically anything with notes. > > **Cons**: Doesn't appear in right click menu from other apps - but as they regularly add new features, perhaps this will come soon. ----- ### "Workflowy: A true hidden gem\!" — 5.0/5 > **Dan** | *20 November 2023* | Education Management | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the way that WorkFlowy allows me to organize my information. I can start with a few very high-level categories and break each down into as many levels of sub-categories as I want. This is very useful for accessing feedback and comments about specific assignments when I oversee a number of courses that have multiple assignments of multiple types. > > **Cons**: One minor point about WorkFlowy that could be improved, at least on the Mac platform, is that I cannot drag text into workflow to create a new bullet item, I can only copy and paste. This may cause me to lose a needed item at the top of the Clipboard History. It's really only a minor inconvenience though. > > I use WorkFlowy for several hours each week when I am grading student assignments in online classes. I have also demonstrated WorkFlowy in trainings for faculty at my school and help spread the word about it. ----- ### "Minimalist tool that delivers but the free tier limits are too low for serious users" — 5.0/5 > **Courtlin** | *24 June 2022* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: The minimalist design means the site always loads quickly on desktop or mobile and syncs without any issues. There's nothing to distract you in the app, just your notes and ideas and various ways to slice and filter the views. > > **Cons**: The 500 item limit on the free tier was ultimately too low for me and the workflow management process that I've developed. There are competing tools with nearly the same feature set that offer unlimited notes/edits per month and that's ultimately what I chose to use instead of Workflowy. > > I used Workflowly for many years as part of a GTD workflow system. However, once I found Dynalist, I dropped Workflowly and moved to that tool (no limits on the free plan\!) ----- ### "I've been using Workflowy as a paid user since 2020" — 4.0/5 > **Jason** | *6 September 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: Workflowy is unique in the sense that every bullet can lead to an entire huge section. Their concept behind keeping things simple is very appealing to people who struggle with too many ideas. I also really like their unique functionality such as mirroring bullets to different areas , the beauty is you can use the mirrored bullet just like normal and make any changes you want. This feature has been essential to my workflow and allows you to keep things right where you need them. You can also share your notes with friends in one click just like google docs. This is convenient. Finally they have a breadcrumb feature that is very helpful to navigate around the app. They also send you an email notification with all of your updates. > > **Cons**: The problem I found with Workflowy is that having only bullets for everything is not very helpful when you want to store large paragraphs of text, images and other content. I found this to be quite limiting to my workflow. > > Overall I feel Workflowy is a great tool if all you want to manage is a small amount of text such as todolists, your goals or twitter posts. But the value of it drops significantly if you need large amounts of paragraphs, images, videos, etc ----- ### "Bullet point notes for organisation and ideation" — 4.0/5 > **Shireen** | *14 February 2023* | Research | Recommendation rating: 8.0/10 > > **Pros**: In its simplest form, a bullet point list is a great way to ideate and write complex texts because it allows one to build an outline of the basic functional elements of said text and expand from there. Workflowy complements the bullet point paradigm by allowing you to drag and drop bullets to modify the structure easily, to infinitely nest bullets under existing bullets in order to go off on a tangent, or to link bullets to a totally different bullet in order to create a relationship between two pieces of information that might be in seperate silos. > > **Cons**: All the data is stored in the cloud on Workflowy's servers and is not encrypted. Therefore, this program would not be suitable for storing highly sensitive data. Although the desktop and mobile apps are able to work offline once installed, they are built as web apps contained within a native app shell, and therefore do not employ native UI elements or take advantage of native OS features. As a software with a very clean and minimal UI, most of Workflowy's features are accessible via keyboard shortcuts rather than buttons that can be clicked with a mouse. This could be a problem for users accustomed to software that uses a more visually-focused UI. And finally, although the data is available to be exported as plain text and is therefore theoretically portable to a different notes management software, migrating away from Workflowy would be a lot harder in practice. The links between notes, dates, and many other custom features would break upon export because the formatting of these links is specific to Workflowy and would not be legible to other notes management softwares. Hence, the value of the database is reduced the moment it is exported although the raw data is always available. > > Workflowy has perhaps the simplest and most intuitive user interace of any notes management software in the market today. The user is simply given a plain text field that can take data as bullet points, with the possibility to nest a theoretically infinite number of sub-bullets under a given bullet. This paradigm is easy to pick up and start using, but also proves to an extremely powerful way to hierarchically organise notes.Workflowy's clean interface also belies the fact that it has a number of impressive features under its hood such as linking and mirroring notes, collaboration, creating public notes, tags, dates, kanban boards, and a whole lot more. Although the initial load time of the software can vary sometimes as it syncs with the server, once it has fully loaded, Workflowy works seamlessly and never lags, regardless of the size of the database of notes in use. I have used Workflowy to organise my various work projects - planning upcoming tasks and documenting ongoing progress. I have also used it to maintain lists of films and books I have watched or intend to watch and then to take notes on them. I have also used it to maintain my daily self-reflective journal of thoughts and feelings. And finally, I have also used it as a tool to draft long, complex arguments, to write essays and articles. Workflowy's most impressive feature is the fact that its design makes it extremely versatile and therefore the single program can be used in a myriad of ways. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1017392/workflowy?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1017392/workflowy) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
