Wooo-Asana
What do you like best about the product?
Ever wondered what it was like to see a unicorn shoot across your screen? You'll love the sight even more after you've finished a task within a project or completed a section of a project!
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like for there to be the ability to edit the entire template, and delete multiple tasks at once. Especially since the templates have multiple tasks with details that aren't really needed...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication throughout the team. Some seem to enjoy starting things, dreaming up processes, and not following through. No more! We've got templates, we've got processes and tasks flowing like gold!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Dive into getting to know the features and how to use the templates before diving in. Make sure the person recommending the software at least has a little bit of knowledge about implementing software and rolling out a new tool to a team-- that helps a lot. There is a feature that I noticed today, you can leverage the team at Asana to create workflows and such for you! I might consider that in the future, its worth exploring- especially with a budget strict project.
Easy-Peazy with Asana
What do you like best about the product?
Provides me with an easy to edit checklist, that can be broken into categories that helps keep things organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally Asana logs out and I have to log back in. Not a huge deal, just a minor inconvenience.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Sometimes I will edit the wrong task. Is there an "undo" option? Could we get something that helps us undo mistakes?
Asana is very user friendly and great for organizing
What do you like best about the product?
it's shareable, the ease of use, the way it's laid out and organized on your screen. The simplicity of everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I've experienced so far with this tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The organizing of projects and to do list every day.
A User-Friendly Task Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
At Occasion Brands, we rely heavily on Asana to keep all teams on track with their tasks. My favorite part about Asana is the ability to customize my task list according to my needs i.e., not having the order default to something like oldest to newest task. I like to break up my personal task list according to priority, and the ability to reorder and add sections to my task list help with this significantly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like that there can only be one person assigned to a task at one time, even if there is a "followers" option. There are tasks that occasionally need to be worked on by two people, but it will physically appear on one of the two people's personal task lists. This does open the possibility of forgetting about the task. Yes, there is an inbox that provides you updates about your tasks, but as someone who receives notifications at least thirty times from various tasks on any given day, it's easy to miss important updates sometimes especially on tasks that I am responsible for but not directly assigned. I can only do so much remind myself as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana, we are looking to communicate needs/information amongst different teams, maintain visibility on tasks that are incoming, in progress, or require review, and in certain cases, get written approvals. Having used Asana, I do appreciate that it can be customized to streamline communications between teams. Asana is especially key for our Project Managers who have to oversee a large pool of tasks at any given time and they may not necessarily have a direct hand it. Asana also helps keep teams accountable and transparent when it comes to statuses and meeting deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are considering Asana, I would take advantage of the customization that is available throughout the application. There may be an initial learning curve, but the most basic features can be learned within a day. If your team is very task-driven and requires a lot of back and forth that may not be easily achievable via email or in-person, Asana is helpful in that sense.
Asana is a good solution!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great tool for task management and team collaboration.
Asana has a great team behind its product that constantly updates the platform to meet customer demand.

What do you dislike about the product?
As with all services, there is a learning curve to actually becoming proficient in using Asana, but that can be easily accomplished with a bit of time and practice.
The only thing I want to mention as a negative is the lack of an option to hide team members from the sidebar because they are shown on top of each project.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Based on my experience, Asana is a great tool to coordinate small teams (or startups) and be more productive while keeping an eye on progress and bottlenecks.
Basically a glorified to-do list
What do you like best about the product?
For me the best part is the stuff that doesn't actually move the needle forward, unfortunately. There are fun add-ons like little animated celebrations when you check off a task, which provides a nice little hit of dopamine.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's very confusing to use. The Projects can get cluttered, and it's unclear how to add something to your own calendar vs the team calendar, and I end up having duplicate tasks in multiple places because it's just not that intuitive to organize. I spend more time than I would like consolidating lists and confirming deadlines with team members.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's nice to be able to keep track of tasks and organize according to which project they fall under. It's easy to 'assign' other team members to projects to hopefully keep everyone in the loop, but to be honest since everyone finds Asana so confusing, I don't know that it actually helps much.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We are a small team trying to use Asana and it's fairly confusing. I cannot imagine trying to use Asana in a large team. I wouldn't necessarily recommend Asana for any team, not to mention a large one.
Efficient
What do you like best about the product?
I like the communication between my coworkers on our tasks, I also like the recurring option for tasks. This helps me not have to try to remember my weekly tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish it had a few more capabilities. We especially needed something that would also track our customers. I wish it had a few more cheaper options for companies like us ~ 501C3's that are working with a very limited budget.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
inter office communication is a huge reason i like Asana. i am able to see everything my coworker is doing on each task. how much she has pushed it out, the notes she has made on it, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to learn what all it can do. very beneficial with inter office communication. take the time to set it up correctly.
Fantastic for recurring tasks and projects
What do you like best about the product?
We do a lot of things on a monthly, quarterly or project basis and Asana lets us easily create tasks, duplicate them and have them on various repeating schedules. Being able to see everyone on a project and seeing the timeline view is also great. The integration with Slack fixed the problem of me always losing conversations in Slack, now I can quickly add to Asana as a task with a follow up due date.
What do you dislike about the product?
We still tend to over-schedule resources because it doesn't flag us when we've assigned multiple big projects to a persona at the same time and it doesn't adjust deadlines or flag things when dependant tasks don't get completed on time so not sure what the significance of dependancies are. You can set up multiple workspaces, eg I have one for my work and one for my volunteer work but you can't get a combined view of all tasks. I wish there was an integration with Confluence for task syncing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our new client and employee on-boarding tasks plus all recurring monthly marketing tasks and one-off tasks are managed in Asana. I use the integration with Slack to make sure I don't lose conversations I need to follow up on, adding files and integrating with DropBox ensures everything is in one place where we need it when we need it.
Ideal for the distribution of projects and teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
I like that through this program I can work in real time, it allows me to manage all my projects, programs, attach comments to the tasks to be done, and allows me to follow up on what is being done.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like it to have a desktop version since it only has one mobile application and one web application, and sometimes I have problems with the permissions of who can delete or add tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team and I have used Asana for about 3 years to track tasks and stay connected to make sure we do not forget any activities or tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an innovative tool that will allow you to manage your company's projects, keep you informed of your progress at all times.
