Pros: Everything! it's very flexible, easy to use, and reliable
Cons: some mass actions across multiple iterations & flows don't work as expected
Irina D. · CTO · Information Technology and Services · March 31, 2025
Overall Shortcut has been so helpful in ensuring my team and I stay on top of our tasks. It's easy to create Story templates and to keep track of all your tasks. I love working in iterations, to ensure we stay focused on the job at hand, and avoid being distracted by too big of a workload.
Pros: Makes it really easy to keep track of your tasks and projects, specifically in relation to your company's overall goals and objectives.
Cons: It's not as pretty as some other task management apps, but it's really not too bad.

I didn't like shortcut at first because I was used to Jira but it definitely grew on me over the past few years. I still lament the lacking integrations but they are not the most critical at this point. Thanks to the customization you get to have, it definitely presents some learning curves for newcomers. Teams need to set it up and onboard their users effectively for Shortcut to be as useful as it could be.

Pros: Shortcut feels very lightweight and fast compared to some more popular alternatives like Jira. It satisfies our needs for product development tracking (but not discovery) very well. Writing stories, attaching information is easy and they intuitively turn into previews. The reporting function looks very comprehensive and powerful but we don't use it well enough. I also wished that we were using the engineering part better to integrate well with GitHub -- starting to try it out and it seems to work well.
Cons: $8e
Jo H. · Product Manager · Information Technology and Services · October 20, 2023
Easy to get started with. Easy to use. Nice diagrams and overviews.
Pros: It is extremely easy to use. Quick to setup and understand. VERY cost effective! The team behind Shortcut delivers new and exciting functionality often that really makes a difference.
Cons: I have not idea to be honest. There are really no bad parts of Shortcut for what it is doing! Nice integrations and easy to use, not really something you can dislike.
Fredrik H. · CEO · Marketing and Advertising · October 20, 2023
Overall this is a good working tool
Pros: Easy to use, native, easy to build a work flow, convenient and understandable

Navdeep K. · Insurance Advisor · Insurance · March 25, 2023
Pros: Shortcut is a project management tool which is very easy to use and is suitable for agile teams. It also integrates with a lot of third-party tools, e.g. Slack, which works just fine and is helpful.
Cons: I didn't find any disadvantages in particular. However, the free plan is unfortunately (but unsurprisingly) quite limited.
Kateřina V. · Study Coordinator · Hospital & Health Care · March 22, 2023

grateful for this.
Pros: If there are options of drop down answers for generic responses in combination with composing own answers and responses.
Cons: I like the overall application. It suits the needs of small teams and also big teams. The feedback information is secure and easy to circulate to multiple.
ravikishore v. · Research scientist · Research · February 10, 2023
Pros: The best feature in Shortcut for a marketer is the ability to track the customer journey, which is valuable for UX improvements and ensuring a positive customer experience. The visual representation of the journey makes it easy to understand and communicate to others.
Cons: The amount of features can be overwhelming for someone looking to do only basic things in the platform.
Axel H. · Head of Growth · Computer Software · February 9, 2023
Pros: Se configura rápido y es una alternativa a Jira
Cons: Como se gestionan los ticket con puntuaciones
Miguel G. · Development engineer · Telecommunications · January 27, 2023
Pros: Shortcut is easy to use but very powerful, and has a clean, intuitive interface. It offers a wide range of features, including project planning, task management, and collaboration tools. The software integrates well with other tools, such as Slack.
Cons: The per-user price is a bit steep if you need access to all of Shortcut's features.
Anonymous User · Backend Developer · Computer Software · January 8, 2023
A very working tool in project management
Pros: The ability to link the history of old documents to documents in use
Cons: Until today no problems with the software
Ismaël D. · Free-lance · Design · December 9, 2022
=)
Pros: The software is incredible, it's easy to use, and the features just feats your team needs.
Cons: For Brazil it is a really expensive product, I wouldn't be able to pay the complete version, although I know that the free plan locks features that would be really helpful. Some international companies vary the price based on the exchange rate. That would allow to sell your product here easily. For example, for a team of 7 the price would be $84,00, that makes almost R$500,00 here that is almost the same as all the shopping (food, grocery..) for a family of two for a month. See?Other than that, it would be awesome to be able to change the team shortcut url. When I've created my team account I didn't know that the company name would be used for the URL, now it is very long and very ugly to share.
Marco A. · Project Manager · Government Administration · November 21, 2022
Pros: Can branch out the epic easily from origin when too much topic / stories relate to one single task, easy to manage.
Cons: Report : difficult to view milestone and every team member epic / stories completion, declared start and end date vs actual end date.Charging fee : I have team member join and leave, empty seat is a waste of money.
Ching Yen K. · Chief Technology Officer · Consumer Services · November 21, 2022
It is the best tool for our business given our current size. I would recommend it for small teams of designers and engineers. Its integration with GitHub and similar tools is best in class.
Pros: Its interface is super fast compared to tools like Jira. I find the platform extremely easy to use and configure.
Cons: The interface has changed recently and at times that can be jarring. But I have no major complaints.
Cristian J. · CEO · Computer Software · November 18, 2022
Pros: I like how easelly is to edit, tracking and manage your Projects anda tasks. We also manage our OKRs, so its very simple to connect those simple tasks to the strategic goals.
Cons: The dashboard is very complex, I Know its because there are man alternatives and posibilities, but i like simple things, streight to the point, previous setups etc.
Rafael A. · Marketing Leader · Computer Software · November 18, 2022
Pros: There are plenty of features that are user friendly, but you are not locked into using all of them. You can use only what you need and keep things simple. Also, searching and filtering is very robust.
Cons: Removing a workflow after it has associated stories and other references is not straightforward and requires jumping back and forth between screens.
Russ C. · Senior Engineer · Information Technology and Services · November 18, 2022
Pros: This software has many cool features which helps make my development process easy and fun, and this is very important because you don't wanna worry about other things when you are busy with your product. The task tracking feature is something I love, making a list of sub-tasks in a task is awesome it helps break down and simplify task. It's super easy to use Shortcut features without going into much details as it's self reflective.
Cons: As of right now I haven't across anything that is annoying or considered as disadvantage. I'm sure team Shortcut will be up for any feedback.
Manish R. · Software Engineer · Hospital & Health Care · November 18, 2022
Pros: Epics, millestones, projects, tags, workflow and reports are awesome!! The plataform is very intuitive and make understanding easy. The atualizantions aways come with great news and features
Cons: My team is not from the technology business so some features doesnt make sense to us. My team speak portuguese, so the language sometime is an difficult point for some. Losing the story's interactions history makes my team use the tags to identify the sprints.
Gabriela R. · Manager · Environmental Services · November 18, 2022
I like the product; it's very user-friendly; I love the messages that appear when the platform is loading
Pros: I like that I can request tasks from the software team, and I know when to expect the result
Cons: That I receive the notification via email, sometimes it's just SPAM
Anonymous User · Operation Product Manajer · Telecommunications · November 17, 2022
