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.
Good app for project management
What do you like best about the product?
Good for project management but not as seamless and funny to use as a MeisterTask or with as many powerups as Trello. Asana is generally used by a lot of my suppliers and that is why I use it. It has grown in terms of user functionalities and design and it is now much better. You can create projects, tasks, tasks groups, etc. You can do all kind of things inside the tasks such as attach documents, comment, set dates, responsible persons, tags, etc. The iOS app is a great app and you can do everything on the app that you can on the web. You also have a great calender view.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lacks the kanban board and the sexy and fun CX. Lacks also the Gantt chart view. It is not so fun to use as Meistertask and Trello.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
To manage all kind of Projects with partners and clients. Generraly I'm invited to use the app by a supplier or client and I manage the entire project through the app. So that way you don't have to send e-mails or messages or call, you do everything on the app and that way it is easy to see the project satus and the tasks status. Also every comment and document of the project is easely find within the app on a search functionality. You can invite others to joint the project, give them tasks, etc. Is a great way to do it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You should give it a try. also consider MeisterTask and Trello
