Asana MCP Server

What do you like best about the product?

The UX is super friendly, and the capabilities feel out of this world when it comes to organizing stuff.

What do you dislike about the product?

The rules feel less intuitive overall, especially when it comes to the more complex parts. I guess it just lacks a better option for adoption.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It helps us keep track of the team’s performance and what people are working on. It also makes it easier to gather updates and, overall, supports better workflow management.

What do you like best about the product?

I appreciate how Asana keeps track of all my tasks and lets me organize them in different ways. I like how I can put the same task in multiple places. It's easy to use, and I like the different view options. Sometimes I need to see my tasks as a list, other times it's more helpful as a board, and sometimes I need to see the full calendar view. Those views are all helpful. It helps my productivity to break a project up into manageable chunks to understand how everything fits together and who is involved. I also like the automation rules you can set up to make repeated tasks easier. The automation rules are valuable because they help auto-sort tasks after some action is taken, which helps with organization and workload management.

What do you dislike about the product?

What could be improved: internal due dates vs external due dates. I wish I could set a due date for a task and then set a different date range to remind myself when to work on something. I have tasks due a month from now but I don't see them until they show up as coming up next, and then it's too late for me to start working on them. I would love to be able to plan my time better without touching the actual external due date of a task. Another thing that could be improved is the review process and ways to get feedback on design/content creation. This is something my team struggles with constantly. The built-in Asana approve function is not user-friendly for my team. We struggle with creating bottlenecks where one person has to approve everything and this causes a delay. We don't create a new task for someone to review a graphic when it's done - we just change the name of the original task and then re-assign it to the reviewer. This feels extremely inefficient to me and we end up losing track of due dates and the original title/assignee/function of the task. Our Asana was set up before my time at this company and it is way too overcomplicated which makes it hard to navigate around. Overall, time blocking my day, communicating with my team, sending tasks for review or approval, and showing the actual progress of a task are too hard to do right now.

Asana helps enhance my productivity by allowing me to break projects up into manageable chunks and plan out my time better. Asana helps my team have more visibility into my workload and what I'm doing.

What do you like best about the product?

I like Asana for its ability to keep everything organized and help us collaborate across projects, ensuring clarity and timely delivery. The animations for completing tasks add a bit of fun to the process. I appreciate the ability to track progress and add documentation both at the task and project levels. The initial setup of Asana was easy.

What do you dislike about the product?

At our tier, we can't add multiple people to tasks for partial ownership, we have to create a completely new task for them, which is annoying.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Asana keeps our tasks in order, allowing project collaboration to ensure clarity and timely delivery. It helps track progress and add documentation to specific tasks and projects.

What do you like best about the product?

Connect the emails with Asana, have everything in order. The reminders

What do you dislike about the product?

When there are many projects, I feel it looks disorganized. It would be good if the structure were like a DRIVE where the main folder names appear in the left bar. Because in the left bar, all the projects appear, and sometimes there are so many that you lose track.

Sometimes with so many projects, one misses deadlines. I don't know if reminders could arrive on the phone or something else. Because sometimes with so much going on, one forgets to check.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Organize everything and don't forget anything.

What do you like best about the product?

The most helpful parts of Asana are being able to organize projects into specific task with due dates and it’d be easy to follow and keep track with a Reminders

What do you dislike about the product?

I haven’t found any downsides. It’s easy to use and easy to share with folks so so far no negatives.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

The most helpful part is working on a social media calendar to keep things easy to organize and simple to follow. Sharing projects with multiple people. And keeping up with multiple deadlines for different projects and one role.

What do you like best about the product?

I like Asana's simple and clean interface, which makes it really easy to use. I appreciate its ability to help me cross collaborate with teams on specific tasks and keep me on top of all my tasks.

What do you dislike about the product?

I believe the shared columns or statuses can sometimes be a little confusing. I can't really say more than that off the top of my head.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I find Asana allows me to cross collaborate with teams on specific tasks and keeps me on top of all my tasks.

What do you like best about the product?

I use Asana for project timelines, from assignment to completion. It helps me manage project deadlines and provides insights and achievements over weeks, months, or even a year. I like that Asana allows the project handler to request or make changes like deadline adjustments, attachment requirements, and general updates. It's also useful for keeping projects private and only visible to certain members of the group. As a designer working remotely in a team of 25 people, it helps me connect directly with project owners within Asana to get project guidelines.

What do you dislike about the product?

I feel like ownership of changing deadlines should be restricted to a single person sometimes. In some cases, only the project owner should have the ability to make changes, not everyone. Asana should add an option for designating a project owner or manager who can manage these changes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I use Asana for project timelines, tracking deadlines, attachments, and updates. It provides insights on achievements and keeps projects private, making it easy to connect with project owners. These features are valuable for managing our team of 25 working remotely.

I like how I was able to assign my team tasks and monitor completed or incomplete tasks

I disliked that it was a bit pricey for my organization

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

How to best work with teams and collaboration as a project manager

What do you like best about the product?

Asana has helped me get organized, hold myself accountable, and meet deadlines that I was missing before because I was losing notes amongst the 15 notepads and legal pads I was writing every single task and thought and reminder in! I LOVE that it can integrate with ChatGPT! That has honestly been the biggest upgrade since I've started using Asana close to a year ago. The price point is very fair, the performance is great - there's never any glitches and it never runs slow, and the support is phenomenal!

What do you dislike about the product?

Honestly I haven't found any dislikes so far about Asana. I don't think that I use it to its fullest capability because I'm the only one on the team that uses it. It makes for an excellent invoice payment tracker and to do list for me. I color coded the different categories of my day to day tasks (Administrative, HR, Finance, Brain Dump, etc.) and I can look at the calendar view and see very easily what I've got on the docket for that day. It works very well with my ADHD brain!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

I'm not missing deadlines! And that is benefitting me because my boss is happy and I stay out of trouble lol. Before Asana, I was a hot mess express! Seriously, I can fill a legal pad up from front to back in about three days. With Asana, I can get all of my thoughts out of my head in my Brain Dump project, and then I can go back and sort each task into the appropriate project depending on whether it's HR related, Finance related, or just regular ole Admin related. And no more legal pads stacked up on my desk or shuffling to find notes about x, y, or z.

What do you like best about the product?

The UI is simple but provides enough versatility to use across multiple teams in an organization. The integrations work with softwares our company already utilizes and for the most part it performs well.

What do you dislike about the product?

Onboarding has been a bit tough for some of our team members but we will get there with more training. Would be nice to see more training features for specific roles in a company.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Giving clarity of work and a source of truth to our team.
