Used For

• +**Morning app-hopping takes 30 minutes across Asana, calendar, and Slack** → One view shows everything, drag tasks to time slots, done in 5 minutes
• +**You keep overcommitting and missing deadlines because you can't see time realistically** → Warns you when you've scheduled over 5 hours of deep work, prevents overbooking
• +**Tasks from yesterday disappear into the void and you forget them** → Unfinished work automatically rolls over to tomorrow with notes intact
• +Timeboxing with Pomodoro timers - assigns exact 30-minute blocks instead of vague "do this today"
• +Daily shutdown ritual shows exactly where your time went with completed tasks and hours tracked

Best For

• >You're bouncing between 5 different apps every morning trying to figure out what to do next
• >Project manager drowning in Trello cards with back-to-back meetings
• >Your to-do list is infinite but your day isn't

Not For

• -Teams over 10 people - no shared boards, Gantt charts, or workload reporting like real project management tools
• -Anyone wanting a free option - starts at $20/month with no permanent free tier
• -Long-term planning - no proper backlog view, everything feels "now or never" (supposedly fixed in 2025)

Pairs With

• *Asana (where your actual project management happens, Sunsama just pulls tasks for daily planning)
• *Google Calendar (syncs both ways so your timeboxed tasks show up as actual calendar events)
• *Trello (cards get pulled into Sunsama's daily view instead of living in project limbo)
• *Slack (sends status updates about what you're working on without manual posting)
• *Notion (pulls database tasks into daily schedule while keeping project docs separate)
• *Zapier (connects the other 4,999 apps Sunsama doesn't natively integrate with)

The Catch

• !You'll spend your first week adjusting because there's no backlog - long-term tasks feel homeless
• !Teams pay full per-seat pricing even for light users, so a 10-person team costs $200-340/month
• !Heavy Zapier users add another $20+/month for premium automation on top of Sunsama's subscription

Bottom Line

Finally, a tool that stops you from scheduling 12 hours of work into an 8-hour day.
