The Rise of Hybrid Productivity Software

Is the future of the space, combination!?

The productivity category has been rapidly growing, more than ever.

And none more so than today.

Applications aren’t relying solely on one core experience but diversifying into these “hybrid” tools that aim to solve even more of your productivity woes. This isn’t the case as much with the existing players, but with the newbies to the field — looking to leapfrog the strongest of brands.

We know Evernote. We know Todoist. We know Trello… But do we know Taskade? Do we think Focuster? Or even Sunsama?

Not really?! But we might just have to start considering them in 2020 as we look to move to a one/two tool mindset.

Traditionally, I recommend 3 tools.

A note-taker, a calendar, a to-do list app. This is based on the advice productivity experts have been given for years. But the more of these tools appear and deliver a well-rounded experience, the harder just giving three options becomes.
