Finally... Discover a Great Alternative to
Outlook's Task List!

If you use Microsoft Outlook® to keep track of your tasks, you know how convenient it is to manage your to-do's in one central place.

It makes it much simpler to track everything you need to do, know what your top priorities are for each day, and get things done.

Or, at least it should.

However, Outlook’s task list lacks some important and convenient features:

bullet

It doesn’t support sub-tasks, making it difficult to break down big projects into smaller steps

bullet

It doesn’t support easy prioritization and organization of tasks

bullet

It doesn’t really distinguish between projects and tasks

bullet

It doesn’t keep track of tasks associated with a specific project (unless you do it manually yourself)

bullet

It can be awkward to schedule tasks in the calendar

bullet

It doesn’t help you connect your daily actions to your mission, vision, and goals

If you are not careful, you can end up with a long, disorganized Task List with hundreds of items that overwhelms you rather than truly helping you get things done.

It shows you how sub-tasks, prioritization, and scheduling can help you take control of your time and significantly increase your productivity.

It is a perfect companion for Microsoft Outlook users who want to take their productivity and effectiveness to the next level.

Top Reasons Why Achieve Planner Is Better Than the Outlook Tasks List

1. Hierarchical (multi-level) Project/Task Outlines

Unlike Outlook, Achieve Planner uses hierarchical (multi-level) outlines to help you capture, organize, and manage your projects and tasks. You can easily break large tasks into smaller steps using as many levels as you need. Import your Outlook tasks directly into Achieve Planner (Outlook XP/2003).

2. Separate Projects and Tasks

While Outlook only allows you to keep track of tasks, Achieve Planner separates projects from their tasks. A project represents an outcome in your to-do list, while tasks are the individual action steps for each project.

Separating projects and tasks gives you a smaller, more manageable, and more effective to-do list. You can use the task list to plan details for each project independently from the others.

3. Schedule Your Projects in a Weekly Calendar

Unlike most to-do list software packages, Achieve Planner has an integrated Weekly Schedule where you can place "project blocks" linked to your projects, as well as keep track of meetings, events, and other appointments.

Achieve Planner Pro even keeps your weekly schedule synchronized with the Outlook calendar.

4. Prioritize Your Projects & Tasks Using ABCD System

Unlike Microsoft Outlook®, Achieve Planner fully supports the ABCD prioritization system helping you apply the 80/20 rule and spend your time on what is most important.

Each item in your list can be prioritized using ranked ("A1") or unranked ("A") priority values, which are automatically sorted and color-coded.

5. Track Effort and Compute Start/End Dates Automatically

Using Achieve Planner, you can store effort estimates for your tasks and record the actual time you spend on them. Achieve Planner Pro edition can  automatically compute the expected start/end dates of your projects and tasks based on your effort estimates, priorities, and schedule. You will have a much better sense of when your work will be completed, and whether your deadlines are achievable.

You can schedule your project blocks manually using drag and drop or take advantage of the weekly planning wizard tool.

6. Plan Your Projects in Greater Detail

Achieve Planner lets you plan your projects in as much detail as you need. You can break down the project into its tasks using a hierarchical outline, and store the objectives, stakeholders, strategy, vision, risks, and team associated with your project.

If you need, you can assign different resources to different tasks, which are used during the automatic scheduling. You can also establish predecessor/link relationships between your tasks.

7. Goal Setting Module for True Life Management

Planning and scheduling is about more than just getting work done. It’s about achieving goals and living a fulfilling life.

Now you can define your dreams and ambitions, determine your goals, and balance your life to achieve satisfying results:

bullet

Organize your projects within result areas representing your major life dimensions and roles

bullet

The goal organizer helps you set, plan and track your dreams & goals

bullet

Capture everything you may want to do in each life area with the convenient wish list

bullet

Develop mission and vision statements for your life areas

bullet

Perform S.W.O.T (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities, Threats) analysis for each result area

bullet

Track your short-term goals using relevant metrics and progress reports

bullet

Plan your goals in greater detail by including vision statements, identifying obstacles, developing your strategy, and breaking your goal into smaller steps

bullet

Integrate goals with time management by implementing your goals using projects and tasks

Your product is the first thing that I have found that really seems to be working."

"The best life planner I've ever used! When it comes to doing complete "Life Planning" there are very few products on the market that allow for it... I've tried everything from paper planners to over a dozen software packages. I've settled on the Achieve Productivity Suite to help put my life in order!"

- Eric Eckberg

 

"Great stuff! Just want you to know that I've used several different time management software systems. Achieve Pro is turning out to be the best.... This product is what RPM and OPA tried to be, but never could perfect. It really seems to be the best of all including Franklin Planner and their newer Plan Plus software. I've used Franklin in paper and software since the early 90s."
