Pick OmniFocus if gTD users who will finish the 30-day Mac trial then pick Standard US$74.99 — or Pro US$149.99 / Annual US$99.99 when they need Perspectives / automation, not Things Mac $49.99 first unless they want a lighter Today list. Pick Todoist if individuals who will stay on Beginner at $0 (5 personal projects) while they open a first Today list, then Pro at $5/month yearly ($60) when they need 300 projects
