Cool way to track your workload

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the way that anyone can assign work to you and you can pick who can view it. Getting assigned work with a due date eliminates the pressure of completing it in a rush because you didn't know it was needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the way that you cannot submit pdf or photos and you can just comment. If that ability was added asana could be used for more. If there were more things we could do instead of just commenting, everything about asana would be perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems
- Everyone doing the same task
- Everyone not completing tasks on time
Benefits
- Getting work done
- Everythings more organized now

Asana is super powerful but difficult for some employees to fully utilize

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how powerful Asana is. Our company uses it for tasks and project management but also for other processes like onboarding, learning and development, and CRM-type tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana isn't the most user-friendly software especially if you layer multiple processes onto it. A recent employee survey surfaced Asana usage as a dissatisfier for many employees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps coordinate tasks in many different departments and gives visibility to projects and recurring tasks. In some instances, it replaces buying a bunch of additional licenses for other software. Manager have increased visibility, and we have actionable data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try before you buy

Asana Keeps Me Organized and Effective

  • March 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of my favorite things about Asana is that I can sort things by task due date in a list or view them on a calendar. That makes sure that I am able to see different kinds of tasks in the way that makes the most sense to me. You can also see how much your teammates have on their plate for the day or week before asking them to do something or assigning it to them. It helps make sure that we are all informed and getting things done in time for deadlines.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of notifications that you get automatically but you are able to turn them off and customize which ones you get so it's fine. It took me a while to figure out that you are able to customize which alerts you get so at first, my inbox was flooded with Asana notifications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana lets the team assign themselves and each other tasks in a very organized way. Instead of trying to remember things or write them down or get assignments in an email, all of our To Do's are right there in the same system. It has meant that I never forget to do something because it's right there in front of me with the details and the due date. I can also sort my tasks by due date and see what my week's workload looks like which is a huge help.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely recommend Asana. It has really helped our team to get and stay organized.

Plan and follow up on your activities

  • March 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I can organize my activities and tasks on cards, in which I can add dates, files and documents, its interface is simple and it is easy to adapt, I like it because I can take control of the project and assign tasks to the members of my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks more features, such as diagrams and the ability to edit images, I think it is a somewhat expensive tool and is not ideal for small businesses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With asana I save work and money since I can focus on what I really need, it is also very good to work with my colleagues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before hiring Asana, you should know if it meets what you need, although I'm sure it can adapt to any environment.

A great team hub for most of my collaborative work activities

  • March 20, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to set up projects and tasks in Asana. The control panel has bright colors and is engaging to use overall. The various progress meters motivate me and the people I collaborate with to get things done and marked and completed. Getting started with Asana didn't take long at all. I was able to get my account set up and connected with my group within an hour. Using the buttons and cards to update projects is very smooth and not too technical for me. There are also loads of templates geared towards very common field-specific projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are certain projects that have taken us a long time to set up. For more advanced project specification and configurations, we have to dig around for further information and do some trial and error to make things fit the way we needed. So basically, I don't feel it will always work so well out of the box for absolutely every business or creative project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana keeps everyone abreast of project activities and status updates. We can get a quick glance at everything that's going and what needs to be done. For me, it has greatly reduced lots of the stress that I once had when I would jot project notes down and email information around to different team members. The Asana system keeps everyone more on the same page and serves as a hub for documents and files related to our projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana works great on its own for many business and creative projects, but you should definitely explore the many extensions that are offered to further your use of the platform. You can also integrate it with popular cloud-based software like CRM and online storage accounts.

Manage your tasks and activities from the web.

  • March 20, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has very good characteristics for the development of projects and activities, I can keep my team working and what really matters, another of the advantages of asana is having a notification system that alerts when an activity is a point expire. This tool is ideal for tracking large projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Its interface lacks a little more color, in my opinion, I think it should be customizable at sea, and something I can not find is an option to prioritize tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In my case, I am a web programmer, asana allows me to share with my colleagues all my changes and updates, I can upload files so my team can see them.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before using this tool take into account that you will need a time to adapt to use it, once you achieve it you will be able to obtain incredible benefits in your work.

Control your activities and projects as a team

  • March 19, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a very complete platform with which I can organize my projects and activities, it allows me to be able to sort and add activities to my calendar, I can upload all kinds of files and I can also keep track of the activities of my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search for the cards is not as good as I would like, in addition, in addition the application on Android and Iphone still needs many improvements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana we avoid hiring project managers, since the administration of the activities is carried out in an easy and simple way, also with it we can keep the ideas of all the members in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have time to train your team to be able to use this tool, it will be very helpful at work.

Great Tool but Expensive Pricing Plans

  • March 18, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a project management tool I use for assigning tasks to interns and employees, keeping projects on track across the organization, and managing tasks associated to projects within and outside of my department. It allows me to see projects at a 3000-foot view when I get too consumed with details.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is too expensive. Across my organization, several teams use Asana. An implementation of Asana is exorbitantly high. It would give us access to more project templates like gaant charts and custom tools. Asana should consider letting individual users upgrade themselves (and not their teams) or purchase templates separately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Some use it to manage ad hoc teams while departments use it to communicate across projects. We also use it to create an automated workflow with the email-to-project system.

Asana Review

  • March 17, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I am in Asana on a daily basis. I have never found a platform that keeps me so organized in such an easy way. My team does several marketing campaigns, which require a lot of daily tasks. Asana helps me stay on top of everything without missing a beat.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to search things in Asana sometimes. Unless your other team members have a good organizational structure (setting up projects, naming conventions, etc), things can be hard to find.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to work across almost all teams in our company. It helps us all to stay extremely organized and able to comment on/see others’ projects.

Manage your projects with the amazing tools of Asana

  • March 16, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has useful functions such as subtasks, table view and calendar view, it also has functions with which I can see the status and progress of all my current projects in real time, so that it can keep everything in order, recently, a new one was added. characteristic of the Gantt chart that can be very useful for managing projects.

It takes some time to learn how to use each Asana function, since there are many features. I can say that their tools are easy to use once you work on them, but some users struggle with more specific functions, such as panels and communication tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With this tool I have been able to work in a team in a very easy way and it works well to coordinate each member and meet deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is easy to use, very intuitive, Asana will allow you to simplify your work.
