Great for project management
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana for my team to manage our project tasks and to ensure all the communication we have is all in one spot. I like the assigning tasks function and the option to control what notifications you receive from the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
For myself, it was easy to navigate my way around, but for some of my team who aren't that savvy, they had trouble knowing where to start.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana we've removed the dreaded reply-all email thread, we stay on top of our projects and deadlines and we are able to see where everyone else is on their tasks.
Great tool for tracking projects
What do you like best about the product?
It is straightforward to set up a project and track milestones.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have issues with the permissions in Asana. For instance I will click through a link and be told I don’t have access to view the content...but I have no way of requesting access to it or seeing what exactly I don’t have access to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project tracking, collaboration, milestone setting, task assignment.
Asana makes project management easy for everyone
What do you like best about the product?
It’s so easy to create tasks and subtasks in Asana. Developing scrums and using agile project management is much easier than before. I really love that everyone can drag and drop different documents and collaborate in one space. It's also really helpful to see everything in the calendar view.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some areas like Gantt charting that aren't quite as easy as they are with other systems. I also dislike how difficult it can be to search for specific tasks. For example, if you don't search for the exact task name, it can take forever to find what you're looking for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We’re solving a lack of organization. For the most part, things are no longer slipping through the cracks. Additionally, the product is helping with accountability. We can easily tag and mention various members of our team when they need to have eyes on specific projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're considering Asana, just make the switch. It'll be easy for all of your company to use – including those who are typically less responsive and/or tech-savvy.
Good for to-do lists and tracking tasks
What do you like best about the product?
Good for to-do lists and tracking tasks if that's how you like to get organized (but not super great for project collaboration).
What do you dislike about the product?
Not great for collaborating on projects because there's no way to comment on actual content itself, just brief checklists.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task tracking, to-do lists.
Lots of features for a busy team.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that everything my team has going on gets recorded in this software. It gets really stressful wondering where a project is, or if I assigned it, or if the person got the assignment - with Asana and everyone going to the same place to collaborate, nothing gets missed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve how everyone should use it can get a little confusing. It would be great to have several tutorials on how to best organize work assignments within Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Confusion around assignments and project status are greatly reduced because of using Asana with my team. The fact that I can not only assign projects and tasks, but also maintain a dialogue with everyone involved in that project helps a lot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to simplify and de-stress your project management with multiple employees/IC's, then Asana is a great place to start.
Fantastic program management software
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great tool for tracking projects, especially with teams. Individually, I use it as a robust task list, with specific projects and task headers to stay on target. As a team, we use it to check in about projects, share status updates, pull in others we need input from, and queue other tasks once a task is completed. This will be my third organization I got to set up Asana, and it saves our team so much time and capacity.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the help desk challenging, as it often takes days or weeks to respond. Sometimes I miss the response email and don't see that a response has come through until I log in to submit another query.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Prevent unnecessary emails and important project-related information getting lost in various communication channels, stay on track of my own projects and others where my input is needed, avoid forgetting important deadlines, projects and strategic initiatives.
Significantly improved product
What do you like best about the product?
It's really easy to track all my projects, goals, and tasks in a single location.
What do you dislike about the product?
I used Asana many years ago, and wasn't thrilled. However, I gave it another chance and significant improvements have been made. I can now add sub tasks and documents to the projects. My goals are in there and they are trackable. However, I'd really like to be able to search for other related items in an easier way for cross team collaboration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management for complex projects.
Okay but takes a while to get up and running
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the calendar functionality and visibility, as it not only presents you with deadlines, but helps you stay on task with what you have planned on doing. It does a good job of allowing for multiple ways of viewing the tasks you are trying to manage and keep up to date with, and the reminders and home view really allow for clear communication on task management.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not the simplest of interfaces and can take time to get situated with the team. Additionally, the tiers of tasks they provide are not extensive enough for our needs. We also operate on more of a scrum/agile method which is much easier implemented with other software that we have found.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Asana for basic task management for an early stage startup. Given that we are a small company with constantly changing needs, the more rigid nature of Asana is not ideal. However, we are able to better track progress which helps to dictate day to day operations better. We are still not using Asana as our sole project management tool, but have found value in it nonetheless.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at all different project management tools and think about how you plan on growing your team and what framework you want to use (i.e. kanban or otherwise) as there are certain tools better equipped for some methodologies while Asana is good in its own way.
A powerful tool for teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about asana is the ease of use and the fact that you can separate large projects into smaller ones and assign them to a group of people.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything negative to say about the program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are no business problems that I'm solving with Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have the inbox notifications be sent to our Gmail accounts.
The best project management tool ever!
What do you like best about the product?
Where to start...I love everything about Asana! But I think the best part is how easy it is to use. Plus the user interface is easy on the eye ;) I also love the little animations every time I complete a task!! I've recommended this product to my husband and they've started using Asana for a month now and love it too!
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't like the fact that I couldn't put in start dates for a project but I see that it is now available in Premium :) Also don't like that you have to put a task into a project to be able to see it in the calendar view. Not sure if this has changed with all the upgrades...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Asana, there were projects that would get forgotten until the last minute, because the info was buried somewhere in my email inbox. We didn't know what projects the rest of the team was working on or how far along they were so if a team member was away from work and a client contacted us to find out we couldn't actually give any feedback. Now we have easy access to what everyone is working on, we know exactly what's outstanding on each project. Information for each project is stored in one place, so no more trying to wade through emails!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it...and you'll wonder how you ever survived without it!
