App: PMP's Best Friend
Developer: Joseph Ruth
Genres: Productivity, Business

The problem with most task and list managers that most of them emphasize graphics and good looks over functionality.   Kanban style block desktops and apps which require a lot of screen real estate to show individual tasks look really great but the information density is very poor and requires you to scroll all over to find the main thing you want out of a task manager which is ‘what are the most important things that I need to do today and in which order should I work on them’.  

PMP’s Best Friend is intended to be used by someone who is a project manager or business owner or sales professional who needs balance many tasks at one time.  The main focus of PMP’s Best Friend is to allow you to see as much information on the main display as possible.   It has all of the advantages of a Kanban board without having to deal with Kanban bloat or the feeling that you are adding entries you never find again into a unsearchable black hole.
