A Great Product That No Longer Delivers the Value I Originally Purchased
I purchased the Tier 3 Lifetime Deal, the highest tier available, because I believed in Taskade and wanted to support the company early. At the time, it was one of my favorite AppSumo purchases.
The platform was intuitive, innovative, and the team consistently shipped meaningful improvements. Support was responsive, and it felt like a company that genuinely cared about its community.
Over time, however, the value of my lifetime purchase has changed.
The product has evolved significantly, and many of the capabilities that now define the platform require an ongoing credit-based model. While I understand software evolves and infrastructure costs increase, the practical experience of using my lifetime plan today is very different from when I made my investment.
My disappointment isn’t with the quality of the product. Taskade is still an impressive platform.
It’s with how early lifetime customers have been handled during that transition.
I would have appreciated clearer communication, a stronger grandfathering strategy, or another accommodation that recognized those of us who purchased the highest lifetime tier and helped support the company’s growth.
Support has always been courteous and professional, but I don’t feel the final resolution addressed the underlying concern.
I’m leaving this review so future AppSumo buyers understand that a lifetime deal can change in value as a product evolves. That’s an important consideration before making any lifetime software purchase.
I sincerely hope Taskade revisits how it supports its earliest customers because I would love to update this review in the future.
