Any ETA for office 365 compatibility? This looks like exactly the email workflow I've dreamed of (and thought about starting to write countless times, so thank you for actually doing so)

We don't have an ETA for Office 365 support yet because we're focusing on getting the experience right first. But we get a lot of requests for that so it's definitely a high priority.

Hey, that's me!

Very interested in this, but only if access to my email stays on my local machine. If there are any cloud servers involved... nope.

Intriguing, but....

Without Calendar integration, it's not even worth my trying, and 14 days is not enough of a trial to learn a new system.

Contact sync as a free feature? Yeah, OK, that's what it's worth to me.

Right now, I use GTD-style tags in my business account and rely almost entirely on my business calendar for scheduling.

Without Calendar integration, I ain't movin'!

What might interest me:

* In the Free plan, offer Calendar and one of either GTD or Kanban (I'll start with GTD), and sync with one email account.

* In a step-up plan, offer either the "other style" or multiple accounts.

* In another step-up, offer everything, including Contact integration.

Then I might be willing to try it. But as it is, while I am unhappy with my ToDo management and really want something that works across multiple systems, without Calendar I won't move.

If your email is already on Gmail isn't it already on cloud servers...?
