I can create pages, tabs, and blocks without the mess on a single board. Creating subpages for describing items in detail is a helpful feature for arranging my data and thoughts. > > **Cons**: I'm looking forward to a macOS desktop app > > xtiles help me organize my thoughts and easily find all data I added earlier ----- ### "A tool that helped us creating creatives and plan releases" — 5.0/5 > **Aleksandra** | *24 May 2022* | Marketing & Advertising | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like the way we can organize our pieces of content in a document using tiles and tabs. We normally separate tabs for drafts and clean copies for our creatives. Subpages also help to store some inspirations and personal notes. A big plus is the ability to comment and get notifications when someone comments on your notes which is really handy for collaborative work. > > **Cons**: Lack of rich text formatting. I'd like to have at least several kinds of fonts and text colors. Because eventually our text content most often has different fonts, colors, and sizes, so it looks uncompleted in the tool. > > xTiles is really good for preparing content for our PR activities and planning our marketing in general ----- ### "Was hoping I would love it... but I did not." — 4.0/5 > **Erika** | *18 June 2025* | Alternative Medicine | Recommendation rating: 5.0/10 > > **Pros**: - Lots of options for Customization - Lots of bells and whistles to use for a variety of tasks/projects - Visually appealing with options to see layouts that encorporate the whole big picture, or drill down to specifics - Lots of templates to choose from or to use as inspiration to create your own > > **Cons**: - Lots of options and functionality also means lots of steps and clicks - Leans to the expensive side for just my own personal use - Doesn't fully integrate well between desktop/laptop > > xTiles was suggested by a couple of the big podcasters I frequently listen to. From the promo hype it seemed that it would be a lot more straightforward and user friendly than it actually was. I tried xTiles for awhile to see if I could get used to it and paid to upgrade to premium. I found that I kept just reverting back to my old Google Calendar and Keep because I would get frusterated trying to navigate and click through the area I was trying to find on xTiles. Lots of clicks in just to do simple things. I do think for a team environment, or for larger project management that xTiles would likely be an excellent platform, but for basic personal use it ended up being too much. I do really appreciate that when I contacted customer support asking about a refund I received a quick and helpful response, and the refund was back in my account within a few days. Fortunately I was still within the refund period for a yearly subscription, and they honored that a processed quickly. ----- ### "The tool for streamlining my content campaign planning and execution" — 5.0/5 > **Anton** | *21 June 2022* | Program Development | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I've been able to cut my time spend organizing publication materials for our blog almost in half. The ability to structure content with features like tiles drag\&drop, combining tiles and nesting documents with my tiles is great. I like that I can collaborate with my team too. Together we use xTiles for planning our sprints. > > **Cons**: I also use xTiles as a personal note-taking app and it really lacks a decent mobile version for this. Except for this, I haven't faced any other drawbacks. > > So far I have a positive impression of the tool. I'm not sure I've discovered all the possible usecases of it, both for my work and for personal. I currently use it for tasks like preparing our blog publications and social media posts which have been covered well with xTiles. ----- ### "I've been able to simplify my research" — 5.0/5 > **Vira** | *23 May 2022* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I like how easy it's to use the tool. I can quickly break my findings into fragments using the cards (tiles) and move them around just like I need. Also I like the possibility of creating sub-pages. It allows me to avoid cluttering of the main page. > > **Cons**: The tool really lack a web clipper and ability to make basic calculations with tables which makes me to switch between Google Sheets and then to copy\&paste my calculations into xTiles. > > It's a very simple solution to go with. The UI is really intuitive. It took me just several minutes to get a grasp of how to use it and navigate in the tool. Eventually, I've streamlined most of the steps of my analysis. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/353754/xtiles?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/353754/xtiles) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
