Hi @...

Firstly, the task player does not update in real-time, eg when I check off the task on the company or contact page, the task player above still shows it as open. Now I additionally have to check it off in the task player (which does not add value but eats time), If I then check it off in task player it does not provide any value other than redirecting me to the task overview - thus taking me off the contact/company page. 

Overall for my team, we feel this is disrupting the workflow for the above reasons rather than supporting it. The task section is completely sufficient for this.

I would highly appreciate this feature being optional - any thoughts on that? As a temporary workaround, I have resorted to using Asana and my calendar for task management more than ZDS. Ideally, I'd love to keep them in ZDS. 

Looking forward to your feedback and have a great day :) 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Hi Jakub,

First of all congratulations on successfully launching this new feature. However, the majority of my team feels the task player is disrupting their workflow. Reason is for instance if you dedicate a certain time of your day for initial outreach (which we do under leads or contacts), deal follow up (under deals) etc the task player on top distracts from that, hence slows down efficiency because it a) either redirects the person to perform a task instead of what they were intending to do and b) makes them have to close it which is an extra click and added distraction

Overall feedback from me personally would be to have the taskplayer only under the "task" section and not visible for when working on leads, contacts, deals etc.

That being said in my opinion it's a valuable feature for the task section itself and I'm sure many teams find it very valuable, however, I'd be interested to learn if you'd be potentially open to making it optional, so giving us the opportunity in "Settings" to disable the task player.

Let me know what you think and if you have any further questions,

Best,

Julia
