Great for agile teams
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to communicate with teams using just Asana, no e-mail involved. Delegate tasks and mark dependencies. Squats are working well on sprints and each PO have your backlog well organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
We use templates a lot and forms are not imported.
Portfolios still need improvements, we have a lot of needs concerned to view how different projects and squads are integrated and need more detail in status report.
Portfolios still need improvements, we have a lot of needs concerned to view how different projects and squads are integrated and need more detail in status report.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have now a same process development to follow. All squads must use Asana in the same way in order to show the reports the right way.
Asana Raises the Bar for Optimized Workflow
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful aspects of Asana for me are the user interface (colorful, easy to use, intuitive) and the customer support (very responsive and friendly/willing to help). I also value the community aspect of Asana Together. I like how Asana encourages users to become Ambassadors or Certified Pros, and Asana entrusts them to be creative and lead their own events in their communities/with their teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside of Asana is that I wish there was an Event Planning template on the Basic version of Asana, so I could test it out with my team before deciding to upgrade to Premium (I understand that I can do the 30 day free trial).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana I am solving the problem of assigned workflows and breaking up tasks between my team and me. I've realized that Asana helps me stay on track. I used to use calendar reminders for all my 'to-do' items, but I've been trying to move all my reminders over to Asana, so everything is in one place and so there is transparency w/ my team, to communicate to them which tasks I'm working on, and the ability of my available bandwidth.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You won't regret trying out the Basic version, and then decide if you'd need Premium/Business/etc. It'll bring insight into ways you can improve your workflow.
Asana streamlines internal communications like no other product.
What do you like best about the product?
My workplace utilizes Asana to minimize the number of communication channels my team utilizes. It has made project management so much easier, too.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside to Asana has been the learning curve associated with adoption. Not every team member is on the same level, regarding product knowledge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The number of emails and meetings have been reduced drastically since my workplace started using Asana. We are working more efficiently because of this product.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just give it a try and you'll see how much your organization can benefit from adopting Asana.
The Best Thing
What do you like best about the product?
Having everything in once place. I love that I can now set up projects with dates and use it as a template. We have no-weekly product launches and this was a tremendous help! We also upgraded recently so now we have teams so now everyone only sees the projects they need to see instead of everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Inability to change from list to board. We use boards for each department and some prefer lists so I have to create multiple projects and multi-home things to be able to see it in both versions and that a huge pain. Being able to switch between list, board and calendar would be a great feature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My department was in chaos when I started and after researching multiple platforms, Asana was the best one. It has helped us become so much more organized than ever before.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get the premium version and watch the trainings. They are so helpful.
The Perfect Tool for Making Organization & Communication Easy
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is very intuitive! As a project coordinator, I pretty much live on the program, but I find that other employees in our company have had much success in areas like productivity and communication because the system is easy to navigate. Implementing a new communication tool across the company seems like a very daunting task, but our company has taken a liking to Asana, which is a huge attest to the system's usability.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our Project Management Office uses Asana every day. There are about 5-10 employees who would greatly benefit from Asana Business, however, all other employees do not need it. It would ideal if there was a payment option for a portion of our users to upgrade to the higher version with Portfolios and Workload. We cannot justify upgrading our entire plan, as such a small number of employees would fully utilize the higher end features.
If subtasks could be shown in the main project screen (instead of clicking into tasks to see them) that would be AMAZING! I find I often lose sight of subtasks because I can't have the overarching view of the project in its entirety. A subtask collabsable option would be super beneficial!

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication - we're still working on completely shifting in this area, but we now have the ability to say "just look in the Asana task, all the info you need can be found there" instead of sending 10+ emails back and forth
Productivity - Instead of handwriting my to-do list each morning, I know what I need to do and by when. Asana ensures that tasks will be followed up and nothing gets lost in the cracks of miscommunication, making more time for us to the do the work instead of communicating about the work
Organization - We are way better organized! All associated info items, documents, and tasks can be found in one place. It's nice to only have to look in one place instead of 3-4.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
This system takes away the rigor of managing tasks and to-dos. The system is very intuitive, allowing people with no project management experience to excel at efficiency. We have an ongoing saying around our office, #AsanaSavesLives
Asana is a true game changer!
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana for HR Operations activities, the project feature is so easy to manage. Task assignments have been a game changer for our onboarding activities, depending on the new hire's role there could be 12 different departments participating in pre and post onboarding activities. Before Asana onboarding a new hire could take 3 weeks, now it's done within a few business days.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside is at this time there isnt an automated date rule in place for projects. We use the CSV import feature as a work around. The project template remains in a Google Shared Drive CSV template, including the date rules for task assignments based on the triggering date (new hire date, leave date, exit date, etc). Only adds a few extra minutes to the entire project management process, so completely worth it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Asana projects for the entire employee lifecycle, as well as for our 1:1's and project management for Quarterly Goals.
Asana for Non Profits
What do you like best about the product?
Fairly simple UI that makes project management simple to navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
Still feels like its fairly early in development cycle and the community isn't huge yet,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of use is pretty high and there is a good online academy with training videos. For a non profit with a wide range of users comfort levels on computers this is a big deal. It's a huge step up from no PM software. And is easier for most my end users to grasp then something like Microsoft Project while still not being super expensive.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For ease of use and simple implementation is excellent. Very simple for end users to understand. Customization is still a bit of a work in progress.
Finally, My Team is on the Same Page!
What do you like best about the product?
I can see what my team is working on! We use Asana to collaborate and keep each other in the know about projects and tasks. Now, it's easy to see a summary and then dive deep if needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no two way Google Calendar integration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There's never a question of "what are they working on?" or "Do they have bandwidth to take something else on?" anymore. Asana has helped us make sure all projects are planned and finished in a timely manner.
Asana saves lives!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy and aesthetically pleasing the software is. The best function I use every day is the timeline view in order to track where my project is at based on the date.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few formal project management tools that are missing like easily creating work breakdown structures to schedule appropriately. As well as switching the view from board to list and vice versa.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has immensely increased communication between all of our business units. Specifically, it has streamlined all of our product launches throughout the year, which in turn increased communication!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
More formal project management tools such as the ability to create work breakdown structures for scheduling. Ease of switching between project views. Also, time tracking/schedule capabilities
Flexibility and constant improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is really intuitive and easy to use, it can adapt to many different workflows and makes project communication simple. It helps to centralize communication and manage tasks in a much more efficient way. Tasks and project views can be used beyond project management, I find it especially useful to run meetings as well as to create any type of request to get help from other teams.
Asana is constantly updating its functionality and overall UX. You can really see the software improve over time. I am especially excited about all the AI features they are planning to include.

What do you dislike about the product?
Since the software is so flexible, open and transparent, everyone in the organization needs to use it properly in order for it to be really functional. If you do not keep it under control, it can quickly turn into chaos that makes project management even harder.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Up until now, Asana has been extremely useful to keep project communication, fluent and centralized. It has made our daily task management way more efficient and it has allowed increasing collaboration among different teams.
