Everything in One Place!

The makers of IQTELL know about GTD and learn more about GTD from their user community every day. This productivity tool is flexible enough to adjust it exactly to my personal work flow organization so my IQTELL workspace now totally supports my GTD lifestyle.

I have been looking for an application that would allow me to integrate emails, tasks, notes and my calendars in the same UI. IQTELL does just that and more. It is a very powerful program that allows you to customize it the way that makes sense to you. The knowledge base is rich in content and the numerous webinars are a great bonus. I think I may have finally found the time/project management program that I was looking for.

Just a brief note to say how much I love using IQTELL. I just started using it, but I am very impressed in what I’ve seen so far. Keep up the good work.

I’ve just started using IQTELL, and I think I’m already hooked! I see great power and potential here. Response time on support issues has been great, as well. Thank you , Team IQTELL!

I’ve been using IQtell for about three weeks now and slowly getting to grips with it.  Last week I took the plunge and ditched my to do list manager and installed IQtell on my Android too.  I’m still getting used to both as I am tweaking my ways of working to suit this new set up.  I am really glad I made the switch, as what I have now is everything in one place.

The web product is fantastic for helping you organise yourself well in a “Getting Things Done” (GTD) or GTD like way, so you can be productive.  The ability to bring all of the threads of my productivity system into one place is the game changing feature for me.  It also does it in a way that means I don’t have to change that much, but acts as an aggregator, in the way that a feed reader does.  What’s more most of the integration was as straightforward as using a feed reader too.  Where you do get stuck the quality of the support material is excellent.  The how to videos are especially good, clear, short and well focussed, so you can figure out how to get things working

The evernote integration was important as I have so much stored in there, and that was evolving towards a productivity system on it’s own.  Again the initial set up was very simple and clear.  I can see how, using linked evernotes, I can finally sort out my projects and someday or tickler items in a meaningful way.  Another neat feature is the way that all your tags become available to use with anything in the IQtell workspace, which gets me a long way towards tidying up and rationalising my wayward cloud of tags.

The ability to make virtually anything actionable is another strong feature, as it cuts out an opportunity to procrastinate.  An email comes in and you need to act on it, but it’s not a two minute job, so you make it actionable, give it context and perhaps a due date then link in other information to let you get that job done once you have time – brilliant!

As I mentioned I’ve just taken the plunge with the Android app. I like the user interface a great deal.  On my little Samsung Galaxy Ace with big fingers the date and other selectors are very finger friendly.  At present I find I haven’t really used it as anything other than a to do list application and it works well for this with neat icons for contexts helping to make good use of screen space.  The one downside is that it does not store data on the phone, so has to fetch it every time and if, like me you live on the edge of good mobile data, this means the app is slow.  However it is still early days and it is usable enough

All in all IQtell is an excellent product and I am looking forward to seeing how it develops.  It has been put together with GTD in mind and to make best use of the common tools many people use around their productivity system.  The really clever bit is that everything is brought into one place and makes it easy to turn things into actions, helping you to get things done and not just plan to do things.

No GTD system works unless it’s trusted and you use it consistently. IQTELL is sophisticated enough to integrate all your email accounts, contacts, to dos, calendars and notes. It’s simple enough to start using right away. After repeated false starts with other online tools, IQTELL actually makes getting things done easier.
