FAQ
Frequently asked questions

Is TaskNest really free to start?

+
Yes — the Free plan supports up to 5 users with unlimited tasks and basic features. No credit card required. You can upgrade to Pro or Business anytime as your team grows.

How is TaskNest different from Jira or Notion?

+
TaskNest is built for simplicity and speed. Jira is powerful but complex — it takes days to set up and weeks to train a team. Notion is flexible but not purpose-built for task management. TaskNest has workload visibility and team capacity alerts built-in from day one, and you're up and running in 2 minutes. See detailed comparisons with Asana, Trello, ClickUp, monday.com, Basecamp, Linear, and ProofHub.

Can I use TaskNest for non-IT teams?

+
Absolutely. TaskNest works for agencies, small businesses, startups, freelancers, remote teams, and any team that needs to track daily work. You don't need to use sprints or agile — Simple Mode is just task + deadline + assignee.

What is workload management?

+
Workload management shows you how much work each team member has relative to their capacity. TaskNest calculates a load percentage per person and highlights anyone over 80% (at risk) or 100% (overloaded), so you can reassign tasks before deadlines slip.

Is my data secure?

+
Yes. TaskNest is built on Firebase (Google Cloud infrastructure), which provides enterprise-grade security, data encryption at rest and in transit, and reliable uptime. Business plan customers also get dedicated support and SLA guarantees.

Can I cancel anytime?

+
Yes, no lock-in contracts. Cancel your subscription at any time and you'll retain access until the end of your billing period. Your data remains yours.

Do you offer a demo?

Yes! Reach out via our Contact Sales page and our team will schedule a personalised walkthrough for you and your team.
