Fan of Wunderlist and Habitica. I just wish that there’s a way that will make adding items to the list easier than submitting each one. It is easier if you can paste a list and it will be automatically created.
I use Asana (not on the list) but I’ve heard good things about Workflowy.
I have noticed that wunderlist is one of the favourites among customers. I haven’t actually used any of them, but I am considering to choose one and dig deep into it. I have experience with personal finance apps (also wrote an article), but it’s a bit different with small businesses.
