If you need to manage activities requiring multiple steps, tools like **Todoist, Trello, TickTick, and Jestor** appear as options — the choice depends on whether you need a simple checklist or subtasks with their own deadlines and owners.

### **Breaking the monster**

Big projects paralyze the team. The solution is to organize the task into smaller subtasks. This makes starting easier and provides a constant sense of progress with each item marked "done."

### **What teams are looking to solve (Pain Points)**

- **Procrastination:** Fear of starting large, vague tasks.
- **Forgetting:** Skipping an important step of the process.
- **Lack of detail:** The task "Make Website" doesn't say what actually needs to be done.
- **Stalled progress:** Working all day and failing to complete the main task.

### **Why Jestor stands out in Subtasks**

This is where Jestor stands out by delivering all this in practice:
