Routine vs Obsidian

From Zettelkasten to getting things done: Routine vs Obsidian

Obsidian is ideal for building personal knowledge. But more often than not, the notes taken are never leveraged to do anything. Routine takes personal knowledge management to the next level through custom types, integrations and AI.

Why do people switch from Obsidian to Routine?

Obsidian is a highly customizable knowledge management app that empowers users to build personal note networks with markdown, backlinks and visual graph views. Unfortunately Obsidian is very hard to use and requires a a lot of time to set up and maintain.

Routine not only goes further than Obsidian by providing a more powerful personal knowledge management (PKM) experience through custom types, views and canvases, Routine synchronizes data from all the other services you use on a daily basis, centralizing all your information into a single workspace. Finally, Routine supports collaboration, allowing teams to work together and power their workflows.

Routine combines tasks, calendar management, and documentation in a UI that enables optimal week-to-week planning. My favorite feature is the dashboard, where I can quickly capture things that otherwise would fall through the cracks.

I’ve tried about every app on the market over the past ten years, and for the first time, I have stuck to one after using Routine for the past two months. And I love the integration with Google Calendar and Google Tasks.
