Any software that tries to be all things to all people will ultimately fail.

Omnioutliner Pro is not that software. It has a very limited scope in terms of what it tries to do. And almost succeeds.

Let me start with the issues that I have with this software. The essential piece that is missing is EXPORT functionality. Sure it will export to various formats. HTML. RTF. Some Limited WORD and EXCEL export capabilities. And a few more. But it doesn't export to the apps formats that most users might need. Calendar. Mail. Not even OmniFocus - from the same company.

BUT as a consultant I still manage to use it on a daily basis and for multiple purposes.

There's the basic list making of course. But I also use it to organize my thoughts when I need to create a presentation, report, a training plan, or a simple meeting plan. The reason that I make such heavy use of this app can be summed up in one phrase - USER FRIENDLY.

This small app with seemingly limited use makes it very easy to get a quick start on most of the tasks that I come up against during my day. I have also found a report and some free templates on [...] that allows me to extend my use of it even further.

Is the THE MUST HAVE APP for your toolbox?

No. But if you have it, you'll probably find yourself turning towards it more often than you thought.
