Task management tools in this list span focused to-do apps, kanban boards, project platforms, and broader workspaces. The data here comes from ToolVitals for May 2026 and reflects each product’s health, shipping, GitHub stars, and overall ToolVitals score.

The ranking uses ToolVitals score first, then GitHub stars as a secondary signal when scores are tied. That means the order favors overall ToolVitals performance before popularity, not the other way around.
