Fantastic Project Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is extremely simple to use. It's easy to move tasks around, create templates and even invite users to the platform. I've used many other project management tools in the past but Asana is by far my favorite.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I've been frustrated with was that our company was offered a beta/trial of a new feature. We invested time into getting it up and running and then we found out that it was going to be an add-on product. It is understandable but not communicated as well as it should have been.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have tried to get on the same page, streamline processes and get more done with limited resources. So far, we've been able to realize all of these goals and more.
Review of Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can collaborate with others and know the status of their work.
What do you dislike about the product?
I had difficulty figuring out how to communicate with one another.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Each week I am responsible for putting together an Order of Service for Sunday Worship at the church I work at. Often, we have a "lay leader" who is in charge and Asana is a platform we can use for communication since they are not in the same office as I am.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is definitely worth a try. It is a time management tool that has helped to coordinate and share documentation very easily.
Helpful Organizational Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes coordinating with multiple coworkers very smooth. I work in special events and knowing the tasks of all team members is incredible helpful. Checking off tasks so that others can see is great in my line of work. We trust we can get things done!
What do you dislike about the product?
I do find I have to spend a lot of time documenting what I am working on in Asana, but that is not really the fault of the software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work with a lot of logistics deadlines and Asana helps us keep everything on track. Rarely does a task fall through the cracks. It has helped us sty on top of upcoming deadlines despite a busy schedule.
Great tool for team project management
What do you like best about the product?
To be honest, I'd like to use Asana everywhere and all the time in my personal life. It's quick and has many functions that guarantee a smooth management of projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not 100% intuitive at first, you certainly need to get the hang of it in order to tap its full potential.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'd say that the main benefits can be seen when handling shared projects with specific deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you can, try and request a short period of time to focus on training, in order to understand and familiarize with the main functions of this software.
A Simple Solution for Organizing Tasks
What do you like best about the product?
This is so much better than just having to constantly ask everyone what they're working on. Plus, we get good use out of all of the different templates and features. We're using the editorial calendar to keep track of content and it's AMAZING.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a little messy and difficult to understand at times. Some of our team members had a hard time figuring out how to get started. It's also just tough to remember to log your tasks and mark them as complete or incomplete.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a way to track content and break projects down into smaller tasks and Asana lets us do that easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be patient with implementing it and be sure to remind your team often about using it.
Best in the business

What do you dislike about the product?
As a downside for being a blank page type of app when you begin the usage, you get to go back and forth on certain things.
With time, you get to stabilize it and those minor set back are easily over compensate.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1- Communication
2- Centralize the information for a Project
3- Transparency
In fact, we could eliminate our internal email usage if everybody would use Asana.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana has evolved incredibly over the years. It solved a lot of painful problems I had when trying to circle information around the team.
Not only a task management tool, it helps increase collaboration, transparency and makes work easier
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility of the tool. Multiple teams and users can use Asana differently to fit their own work style without requiring any customization.
For example I use list view projects I organize by priority but other team members can use tile-style projects or use my list projects organized by team members.

What do you dislike about the product?
Portfolios (dashboards) cannot be searched within the organization (you need to circulate the link with the relevant stakeholders manually) and the timeline view needs a little bit of manual organization to make the most of the view (each project can be viewed as a task list, calendar or a timeline without requiring additional work)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Clarify who is responsible for what, when things are needed. Highlights gaps in the plan before the team runs into the issue.
Ability to create template workflows and standardize processes across organization and team members.
Make the most current information available for whom needs it.
You need the team to use the tool to get these benefits however.

Couldn't Function Without Asana
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the perfect mix of personal/team task management and new features are being added that make it an even more helpful tool. Our team uses it to manage more than 175 events across the world!
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the "My Tasks" section could be improved. It works fine, but sometimes I find myself struggling with the default view of that section and there's very limited customization available. As a workaround, I typically create a "dashboard" project and add tasks to that project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana allows us to get out of the email inbox and get work done. The collaboration tools are fantastic (and are constantly improving). I spend most of my day with outlook closed and Asana open, so real work can get done.
Ideal for small work teams
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the best known workflow manager and although it doesn't have many updates and appearance changes, it is still the spearhead to facilitate the management of projects in large teams. The free version is enough for my computer because each user can create a free account and rotate the work without having to pay. On previous occasions we have bought paid memberships but we don't see the need to do it again. The way you can edit the tasks in very comfortable because you can start editing just by posing the mouse on a box, the social interaction within the application gives it a similar look to Facebook and this way the team can make comments on the development of the project in general.
The process to upload files is very dynamic and easy to use, we have not experienced loss of data despite having few updates. The calendar included in Asana and the free templates are fantastic, very similar to Evernote's and in them you can start placing data without having to modify too much. The visual aspect, the speed of the platform in the web environment and the ability to add lots of notes and make comments social network style, make Asana my favorite online project manager.

What do you dislike about the product?
Personalization is something that cannot be applied in Asana in a profound way. While you can change the color of each project to differentiate them, it is not a satisfactory change for those who wish to give a completely different look to the visual appearance of their projects. While Asana remains focused on simplicity, they should allow the introduction of third party applications to empower their platform. If Asana implements the same vision of Slack, allowing the creation of channels and an open API that allows the integration of Bots and classic Google programs, then it would be used by more people and would be more positioned in the world of online projects. There are also errors when editing some boxes, you start typing but it is not saved automatically, although it is a minor problem because generally in Asana are written phrases cut.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has not contributed so significantly to my company's projects because we relegated it to independent work of each work team but the organization that has given us to take control of each step has been great and so we highly recommend it to anyone who wants to have notes online and thus not forget the simplest tasks but no less important for the organization and completion of projects.
Develop and organize your tasks faster
What do you like best about the product?
With Asana I can make the development process of my projects faster, since it offers me excellent tools with which I can assign tasks to my work team, I have the possibility of creating boards in which I can add my activity lists and documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not really like its interface, I think it lacks more customization options and more colors, I also think that Asana plans are a bit expensive and it depends a lot on the number of members that make up my team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana, helps me to be more attentive to recent activities and those that are about to expire, also makes my team more productive when developing projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an excellent tool with which you can keep your work organized in your office, it has a free version with which you can start working, in terms of its Premium version, keep in mind that the larger your work equipment, the more expensive.
