TaskMagic Reviews

I am a software developer so take my perspective with a grain of salt.

I do most things through code but TM has been great for clicking buttons on websites and grabbing data in a repeated way

One quick example is how I made an interest rate watcher to watch mortgage rates on big bank websites. I once went from 1.67% to 5% during the last few years of interest rate hikes so i'm never making that mistake again and TM has been helpful to achieve that

I use N8n to integrate things since I have unlimited usage with my self hosted version

the product is not ready yet. even the simplest of steps and functions like filters and google sheets integrations have their own free will and will not behave the way you want them to as per your workflow.

if you wish to troubleshoot bugs/issues, the support is practically non-existent. the "best" way to get help on every small and big issue is to make a post in their skool community and hope that someone replies in a few days in a way that doesn't solve your problem completely. When you ask an obvious followup, you'll need to wait for few more days.

The tool and its UI are not at all intuitive. most competing products are much easier on the eye and the brain. to make it worse, they recorded an entire training in the old version and then changed the UI, rendering the training videos meaningless. They have probably pivoted to building their other more recent software instead of focusing on making taskmagic usable.

Then the issue of the pricing. Where most softwares on appsumo charge 3-4 months of their actual pricing, these guys charge 20 months of their website pricing in advance for such a buggy product!
Even their cloud hours is priced exorbitantly. they use activepieces in their backend for their workflows which offered 200,000 tasks per month for $239. but taskmagic offers just 18,000 activepieces tasks per month (6 cloud hours) on Tier 4 for $999!

Not worth it.

So far I like how this works BUT the sales page of the special didn't clearly explain the limitations of tier 3 vs tier 4+. The entire sales page showed features that were not standard until tier 4+. Once you buy Tier 3, in order to use a majority of the product features it requires additional monthly costs, which is fine... but if I have to pay the costs monthly it doesn't make sense to keep the product I bought here. I love the templates, makes me think of so many ideas and the build is easier than Zapier IMO. Great great product just wishing I would have caught the deal before last minute and could have tested and upgraded in time. So super bummed about that. Hopefully I solve this and update the review soon.

Was really hoping for a decent RPA product, but this was filled with bugs - from simple inconsistencies to app-breaking bugs. It's clearly overhyped, but kudos for the marketing effort. What should have been an easy simple workflow to produce in this tool left me confused and without a functional result after spending many hours watching video tutorials and experimenting with the product. The interface is non-intuitive and in some cases unnecessarily repetitive. There are some ways where the product lives up to its full potential such as element selection within HTML, but overall, it was a complete disappointment.

A great tool that cannot be missing in the toolbox of a true automation professional. I know a lot of automation tools and technologies by now but what you can do with this is impressive. It's like having assistants who work for you 24/7 and do things that no other tools can do... recently new features have been added that are really super useful. I tried on a few occasions to talk to the assistant and everything went smoothly.
Anyway, thanks for this great tool appsumo.
Absolutely a must have!
