Process gives users the freedom necessary to be creative and the flexible framework needed to get things done. All within one versatile window, users can brainstorm, organize, schedule, plan, coordinate, collaborate, and do the work.

The Process 3 all-in-one-window interface was kept clean, simple and intuitive to maximize speed, convenience and flexibility. Beneath the utilitarian toolbar you find five distinct but functionally-interlocked panes that give you full control over all your projects and all the elements needed to accomplish each phase.
Features:
- Smart Projects: Does for your tasks what Smart Playlists did for your tunes. Based on the search criteria that you define, your Smart Projects will give you the answers you want and keep them up to date through the power of Spotlight technology.
- Resources: Websites, text documents, photos, movies, music, applications, whatever-as many resources as you need can be linked or attached to each of your project outline items. Every time you click on a particular item, the icons of all the resources that you have harnessed to it will appear instantly in the Source panel which strategically separates your project item listing from the lower Notes/Source View pane where you can display resources and do your work.
- Collaboration: Process 3 gives you Shared Project capability. Simply select the target project and choose File menu>Share. Presto! Your project-and all its resources-are instantly shared with all the Macs on your network and clearly identified with a small shared icon. Everyone on the network can collaborate on the project and even Source documents.
- Archive, Backup, Calendar: Now you can back up your entire Process database to .Mac. Process's new core engine assures seamless synchronization with iCal calendar start dates, due dates and alarms. Moreover Process 3 allows you to keep your completed items and to work or just to pass it over again in the future. Items labeled as "done" will automatically be placed in the Archive folder.

For this version Process often lagging with big number of tasks, haven't normal syncing between computers, haven't ios versions for iPhone and iPad. I'd like to see all these features, but all makes it clear that it can be only in my fantasies. There's no information about any processes with Process...

Ok it's simple enough to use.
But it's not very communicative, not very pretty, not very rich in options.
As a light To do manager, I prefer Things by large.
But if it's free and if you don't already have one, take this.

All in all, this is a cheaper product than OmniFocus, OmniGraffle, and Things, yet it is not lacking much. I strongly encourage that people take advantage of the free serial number giveaways, even if that means making a new Twitter account.

You said: "All in all, this is a cheaper product than OmniFocus, OmniGraffle, and Things, yet it is not lacking much."
While I have not used Things, Process has little in common with OmniGraffle and compared to OmniFocus it feels like a toy. OmniFocus evolved from OmniOutliner, which is more comparable to Process.
Process is indeed "lacking much." For example, adequate URL and email address support, cloning, smart dates (e.g., tomorrow, next Tuesday, next week), consistent data entering (i.e., you can enter priority directly in its column, but can't enter dates that way), etc.
It also has some bugs. For example, after deleting an imported project I had to restart Process in order for the actual items to disappear. Putting a check-mark into all sub-items will move the item and sub-items to the Archive. Un-checking a sub-item will return the item and sub-items to the Projects (as expected), but it will leave the project under Archives as well.
For those who don't mind a bit of a learning curve, NeO is a superior product. It lacks a "pretty" interface, but it's relatively easy to create great looking documents, with a choice of fonts, colors (for font and background), etc. Using Styles makes formatting a breeze.

Like other commenters below I found several significant bugs and unfinished sections/features in this product too late ... yes, I had already paid for it.
Not to worry (I thought) the developers web site certainly seemed professional and the product had been included in a promotional bundle so I assumed they must also be reputable by someones reckoning; but I was oh so very wrong.
After a very polite email to the developer pointing out several of the bugs and faults, and also including some feature suggestions, I still haven't even been acknowledged. I sent that email just over 6 months ago.
Oh I'm sure if the developer reads this s/he will make some promise about an imminent update, just like the one made below regarding the User Manual, I can tell you it never happened.
The shame of it all is that the foundation of a truly great little App was all there and quite apparent; too bad the developer just 'walks away' from his paying customers. Especially those of us who are busy IT consultants and are in the position where we can choose to expose their products to our client base/s ... or NOT.

Developing a stable and functional app is a very tedious job, adding features is complicated sometimes, and finding bugs is not as easy as it seems... it truly is hard to satisfy everyone at the same time!
Why didn't you simply keep emailing them until you got a reply or maybe ask for a refund, instead of bashing their work publicly?
Maybe you should have used the 15-day trial first...

First an iPhone/Touch/etc app counterpart is needed, maybe I just missed it.
Next, Styles need some major rethinking. Although you can add styles in Preferences, they don't seem to show up in the style picker on the Info screen.
Did I mention an iPhone app is needed?
I also think there should be an option to tread tasks without due dates, as due within x amount of time in Smart projects.
An iPhone app would be nice.
Finally, an important oversight on the developers part, which I came across. When first assigning a Pword to a project there should be a 'verify password' box. Or at least allow the user to override the PW by entering the master PW.
Keep up the good work, and provide an iPhone app :)

Hope these are just bugs. But they're making this app a very quirky one to work with!

The Help Viewer and Quick Start Guide are either badly written or completely wrong. Take adding a column for instance. The Quick Start Guide tells you to highlight the project and select add column from the action button (it doesn't tell you what or where the action button is). A dialogue box is supposed to open and give you various options for adding a column. Guess what? That's not how you do it. After much trial and error, I discovered that you have to control-click in the column view to find “add column” then you have to control-click on the newly created column name to edit the type of column.
There are quite a few other “glitches” like this. But these are not just glitches. This is just really bad execution of a potentially good and very useful product. And don't even get me started on creating and using styles. Not at all user friendly or intuitive.
