Pagico 10 Reviewer’s Guide

Overview and Design Philosophy

Pagico is a work management software that covers the management of daily tasks, checklists, events, projects and contacts. It is designed to handle all types of data, such as lists, tasks, notes and files, so that users can keep relevant information together, and manage deadlines with data in one platform.

In this day and age, everyone is facing an increasing demand in their productivity. With things happen quickly and deadlines all over the place, everyone is expected to do more with less time. To make things worse, people tend to perform poorly or procrastinate when under pressure. We firmly believe that the key here is to reduce mental load by letting people “offload” information in Pagico. With reduced mental load, people will think more clearly and perform better. To achieve this, Pagico is designed with the following objectives:

  1. Let users easily offload all kinds of work data (tasks, lists, notes, files, projects & clients) into their Pagico;
  2. Reduce users’ cognitive load by visualizing schedule data as timelines, so users can understand their workload better and plan better;
  3. Offer convenient features to help users make and revise plans
  4. Provide an elegant and calming user interface to minimize distraction

Top Features of Pagico 10

Manage Everything by Projects and Clients

Pagico handles all types of data that people deal with, including tasks, lists, notes, files, projects, clients, and even custom document types. For instance, photographers can use Pagico to manage their shooting schedule (tasks), itineraries (lists), travel & lodging details (notes & documents), and clients’ contact info (contacts). Unlike many other task managers on the market that only handles tasks, Pagico allows users to put in and organize everything, dated or not.

Centralize lists, tasks, notes and files by projects and contacts

When things are organized neatly by projects and contacts, the new Tabs feature gives user quick access to recently-edited projects and contacts. For things that require frequent access for the time being, pin the containers to the Dashboard so they are always 1-click away when Pagico is launched.

One thing that sets Pagico apart from other task managers, is that Pagico also manages contacts. Many users use the Contacts section to manage clients. They can easily create client-specific tasks such as email / phone follow-up tasks, conversation notes and even documents in the corresponding contacts.

Over time, your Pagico database will grow with lots of projects and contacts. Use the color-coded Categories feature as well as the tags feature to categorize projects and contacts, so you can easily browse things with the new Tags & Categories feature.

Visualized Timelines

Most task managers let users manage tasks in the form of lists and calendar views. We strongly believe that there are better ways to visualize workload: timeline. Pagico offers a universal timeline in the Dashboard section that users can get a bird’s eye view of all the time-sensitive things. Timelines offer a much better understanding of task durations, overlaps, start/due points, so the users can easily stay informed without being overwhelmed.

Users not only get one timeline for everything, they also get to see a timeline for each collection, project and contact. This way users can choose to look at only the things they care about at the moment, without getting distracted by other things in the database.

Templates

When you need to create new content with a fixed structure, such as adding a new client with predefined content, or starting a new project with predefined boilerplate tasks & data, use the new Container Templates feature. Users can create new templates with ease, and use the templates when creating new projects & contacts. Existing templates are also available from the Dashboard, making the cloning of templates easier than ever. Templates can also be exported, imported, and shared among teammates, making it easy for all teammates to quickly clone templates into projects and contacts, speeding up routine workflows.

Personalisation

We strongly believe that users can be more productive when they work in an environment that they enjoy. So Pagico 10 brings a few personalisation features to let users feel like home. First, the launch-screen messages can be customized so display a random message from a message list that the users could define. Second, the overall UI has been designed in a way where the hue of the UI can be defined by the users. In addition, the sidebar widgets can be custom built and ordered, so the users can completely define what they see in the sidebar, so Pagico can support users’ workflow in the best way possible.

Streamlined List Writing Experience

The core functionality of Pagico is task management, and the list editing experience is key to task management. In Pagico 10, the list writing experience has been completely rebuilt, so that you can easily write out lists just like how you would with a text list. Use the keyboard arrow keys to navigate among list items, make changes, add new list items, bulk select existing items, you name it! You can complete all the common list editing actions without needing to use the mouse at all.

Performance Improvements

Pagico 10 ships with a brand-new frontend engine that offers 10X better performance on common actions such as opening / switching between projects, editing content and making changes to lists. The end result is that everything feels buttery smooth, and the UI interactions feel streamlined, snappy and natural.
