Routine and Todoist are both credible picks in their category. The honest answer to which is better: it depends on which side of the trade-offs your operation sits.
Where Routine is stronger
In an ecommerce stack, Routine's strength is the operator's planner — calendar, tasks and notes in one place. If that's the gap you're filling, it's the natural default — see our full breakdown.
Where Todoist is stronger
Todoist approaches the same category with different priorities; teams that value those priorities tend to be happier there. Compare current pricing and the depth of the two or three features you'll actually use daily.
How to decide
Write your top three requirements before opening either pricing page, trial the one matching requirement one, and commit only after running your core workflow end-to-end once.
