From Things To Wunderlist To OmniFocus

Omar Morales Like some of you may remember I was a big Things user but switched to Wunderlist mostly because of the lack of cloud sync support on Things.
I know moving from Things to Wunderlist was a downgrade but at first I was happy to have all my To Do's in sync between my many Macs, my iPhone and iPad.
But eventually the reality sets in and I found my self considering restarting my Things addiction as I needed more features that what Wunderlist can offer (I haven't try the new Wunderkit yet).
Just to be clear Wunderlist is an amazing app and for a big majority of user its all they need and the best part is the price FREE.
Things apps were good but they just slacked to much on inplementing the sync function.
But I needed a bit more so I decided to finally try OmniFocus. I had research it many times but the price always hold me back.
I don't only buy one version I get the Mac, iPhone & iPad version so the total is $140. I started with the Trial version of OmniFocus (purchased the licence 12 hours later). For the first 30 minutes I was kind of lost as I was so use to Things workflow. But after that I felt in love so I decided to go with step two and three downloading the iPhone & iPad versions.
I then downloaded the iPhone app as having your To Do's always with you is the most important part at least for me. The iPhone app worked perfectly and syncing with the Mac version was a piece of cake. Finally I downloaded the iPad version and I was impress once again. I mean the iPad version is amazing the UI is beautiful and intuitive an A+.
To finalize I will said that the only drawback to OmniFocus so far was the price $79.99 for the Mac version, $39.99 for the iPad & $19.99 for the iPhone. Not so bad for this great apps but a bit of a hard pill to swallow for someone that already had invested $80 on all the Things apps.
But since that price issue is already over me all I have left are three great apps that work perfectly and are making my workflow so much easy.
