The 34 Most Powerful Productivity Tools

By Katerina Baratta | Updated: 03 Jan, 2023

Is 2023 going to be your most productive year ever?

With the right tools it could be.

The challenge is that there’s no prix fixe solution to productivity.

There’s no pill that everyone can take to cure their productivity woes.

And while a one-size-fits-all solution sounds ideal, you don’t want a standard pill anyway.

Because you need productivity solutions that are tailored to your unique situation.

The software that helps the industrial engineer get her projects done isn’t the same tool that the non-profit CEO needs to manage his many teams.

While there may be a bit of overlap here or there, no two businesses align perfectly.

What you really need are customized solutions that amplify your strengths and strengthen your weaknesses.

Which is why I’m not going to give you a standardized list of “must-have” productivity tools.

Instead, I’m going to help you figure out exactly what you need in order to boost your productivity.

What we’ve learned from working with hundreds of executives at Prialto is that productivity needs fall into a few different categories.

So, what I’m going to do is present you with an à la carte menu of productivity-boosting options.

Once you review these options, you can try the ones that appeal to you the most.

 

 

Where do these recommendations come from?

When I started research for this article, one of the first things I did was reach out to my team here at Prialto to ask them which productivity tools they see our members using the most.

We work with high-level executives who have to-do lists the length of the Mississippi, so I knew the insights were going to be good.

Within a few minutes I had a gold-standard collection of productivity tools at my fingertips.

You’ll find those recommendations below, plus some more indispensable resources I found after dozens of hours researching the best productivity tools currently available.

And you’ll be happy to hear that all of these recommendations are authentic. 

None of the software on this list is sponsored.

They are all honest reviews, curated to help you amplify your productivity.

Let’s take a look at the options. 


Meeting Efficiency

Meetings are important, but they can also be incredibly inefficient.

Lots of time can be saved by creating a clear agenda that participants can look at and contribute to ahead of time.

Having a meeting review process in place can also help meetings become more efficient moving forward, and follow-up tasks help everyone stay on the same page.

The programs below are developed to do all of that, and then some.

And if your meetings are virtual, Vowel makes meetings even more efficient by automatically taking minutes, allowing replays, and more.

Hypercontext

Hypercontext acts as an in-house meeting administrator, giving you and your team more time to focus on building rapport and making great decisions.

Features include the ability to create collaborative agendas so team members can contribute, and everyone shows up to each meeting prepared, leaving you with much more productive meetings.

Meeting minutes are aligned with the agenda, so decisions and action items are all documented in one place and sent out to members automatically once the meeting is complete.

The action-item tracker makes meeting follow-ups and accountability easy, and you can keep improving your meetings with the data you collect in the automated post-meeting surveys.

Features include ready-to-use templates, the ability to assign, organize, and prioritize all your meeting action items in one place, organize your ideas on a digital notepad, and encourage continuous improvement through feedback requests.

Another great feature in Fellow is the ability to bring people outside of your company into meetings. One-on-ones are elevated through talking-point suggestions, and the entire workflow can be integrated with your other productivity software.

Once again, Vowel allows you to plan and share agendas, so everyone can contribute and arrive to each meeting prepared.

An outstanding feature that Vowel offers is that it includes meeting transcription, so you don’t need to worry about keeping minutes or missing important details.

And because meetings are recorded, you can share highlights, rewatch key moments, and ensure everyone is clear on action items.

  • Business plans are $16.49/member/month when billed annually, and includes no time limits on meetings and other features. 

Note-taking and Idea Organization

Another place where most businesses could use improvement is in note organization.

Whether they’re taken on paper or in a Word document, notes have a tendency to float away like space junk that’s left the earth’s orbit.

You might create folders to try to keep track of them, but even then they can be tricky to find the note you’re looking for. 

Brilliant ideas are lost when they aren’t connected to a bigger picture, or at the very least, stored in a searchable database.

The following programs will help you make sure that no idea goes to waste.

One of the great things about Evernote is that you don’t have to adjust to a new system of organization.

Prialto’s managed virtual assistant (VA) service gives business leaders like you the support they need to amplify their productivity, and lives.

For example, when you have a VA manage your schedule, they can help you optimize your workflow so you are free to do deep work when you’re best able to focus, hold meetings at hours when you’re most sociable, and block off time so you can practice the self-care that will keep you going strong.

Your VA’s job is to learn your workflows and know preferences.

If you eat at the same restaurant regularly, your VA might even go above and beyond to check if there’s a frequent diner’s option available to save you money.

A VA can help with other admin tasks, too.

Instead of wasting dozens of hours every month looking up hashtags for your social media posts, you can have your VA do the research for you.

And once you have posts ready to go, your VA can save you even more time by using your social media management system to schedule them for you.

Your VA can also organize your inbox, expenses, and other time-consuming admin tasks so you have more time to focus on the work that only you can do.

And because each VA at Prialto comes with a team to back them up, you never have to worry about a lapse in service if your VA takes time off or moves on to another job.

All of this for a fraction of the price of an in-house assistant.

The result is that you feel less time-pressure at work, more satisfied with your productivity, and happier in life because you know that you have the personal support you need. 

These are just some of the perks you get from hiring a VA.
