I've been using Wunderlist for a while and while it "does the job" it is missing so many things that I really need. I've looked at the major players and they all have shortcomings in one form or another. Actually surprised how bad some of the missing features are.

What I'd like:
Tasks + Subtasks (subs need due dates)
Tasks of any sort should save a completed date (somewhere accessible)
Ability to sort and print/export as necessary, including completed items.

So far I haven't found a single one that prints or exports worth a damn. Some of them when an item is complete, the item disappears forever. Wunderlist doesn't even support Subtask due dates 🙄

I want this for my daily tasks at work. Exporting and printing are pretty necessary so I can let people know what I'm working on or show my boss what has been completed.

Any suggestions? I'm willing to pay a fee, free is not necessary.

EDIT:

Any.Do: Quite possibly the worst website I've ever used. Ever. The UX designer there should be fired, and then set on fire.
 
Doesn't Microsoft Outlook do all that? I don't use the tasks part of Outlook, but I quickly opened it up and you can make categories and then tasks within those categories. You can print and sort. The tasks have date started/due/completed, % completed, etc.

No Subtask support. But I never even considered Outlook. I see a couple Add-Ins that might be worth a look. Thanks!

There are subtask add ins that handle it all. But, unless you need subtasks to subtasks, just create as many categories as you want and as many tasks within those categories. It is essentially the same thing as tasks/subtasks.

That kind of works. Fairly janky though. Nice to be able to export to CSV. Not sure why all the premium apps out there don't allow for this.
 
Subtasks, eh? It sounds like you need something more like a Project management app. Sprint.ly does a nice job of that, and it has a free trial.

Somewhat. I like to see my major projects broken down by subtasks and include those subtasks in my to-do list.

Trying to shoehorn Outlook into doing what I want as above, but even their sorting is a mess.
