Easy use for me and my team
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has varying level sof use, so it can be as simple to use as a personal checklist, but can also be used to set up a project for multiple team members to work across.
What do you dislike about the product?
With the more complicated aspects of the tool, it can be intimidating for newer users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It keeps me organized and accountable for my daily tasks. Anything that isn't a very quick to-do from emails gets put in Asana so that I can both track my progress and track the progress of others on my team who I am waiting on.
A Game-Changer for Project Management - If Your Team Commits
What do you like best about the product?
I've used Asana across multiple teams and project types, from marketing campaigns to product development. Compared to other project management tools like Trello, Monday, or ClickUp, Asana is my favorite-- especially when it is used to it's full potential. The best part about Asana is how it centralizes everything- tasks, files, conversations, deadlines - all in one place. Instead of wasting time digging through emails to Slack threads to figure out where things are at, you can just open Asana and get straight to work. It really helps to manage the sense of overhwelm.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest challenge isn't the software - it's the people. Getting buy-in from team members who have never used project management tools before can be tough. There's a learning curve, and some people resist the structure it introduces. They prefer using things like Google calendar, inbox, or paper lists to manage their tasks, and think that moving to a new platform creates more work. It's just not true, but a real obstacle to overcome. But usually once people are on board, the improvement in team alignment and productivity is noticeable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before using Asana, I often struggled with scattered communication, unclear responsibilities, and wasted time trying to figure out what needed to be done, when, and by whom. Important information was spread across emails, chats, documents, and meetings- making it hard to stay productive and aligned. Asana brings everything into one place- tasks, deadlines, files, updates, and communication. It gives me a clear picture of what's happening across projects without chasing people down or hunting for context. That clarity helps me prioritize better, collaborate more smoothly, and spend less time managing work, and more time doing it.
Best project management tool for our agency
What do you like best about the product?
It's flexible and can be used to track a wide range of things - from project goals like budget and client notes to task details and review checkpoints. They've really made something that can be adapted for a wide range of use cases. Our team uses it all day, every day.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I've struggled with is setting my notifications. I feel like its too many or not enough. Its probably something that I could find deep in the settings, but I'd love to be able to dial in all of my notification settings for every board in one place, rather than going project by project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps our team communicate clearly. All of the project details can be found in Asana, rather than digging through slack, drive, emails, etc.
Seamless organization
What do you like best about the product?
I love that you are able to link directly to documents in Google Drive since all of our previous project management was done using Google Sheets. I also love that everything is in one place rather than hundreds of different spreadsheets. Finally, it is awesome that tasks can live in more than one project and projects can live in more than one portfolio. Oh, and I also like the live webinars and the asynchronous training. I use Asana every day to organize not only my work tasks, but my life tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure I dislike anything. I just need to learn more about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have a lot of projects that are multi-faceted that different departments and owners contribute to, that all lead up to a larger project. The portfolio feature on Asana is very useful for us.
Clean interface and easy to understand and navigate
What do you like best about the product?
It feels intuitive and the short cut support is very good and mostly makes sense. Easy to teach and learn as such, and generally simple when trying to structure projects and tasks in a way that makes sense.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can feel hard to adapt the organization of project lists and task lists in a way that would be easier to visualize and conceptualize, like if scope creep occurs lists can get long and overwhelming and reorganizing can be tedious or a bit time-consuming.
Can take time to get used to and create a habit of filling in fields (which can be customizable) but requires users to definitely put in full effort and not slack on filling in parts of task/project items

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As an IT Support tech:
- Keeps track of all tasks when onboarding users and deploying computers to users, documentation
- Simplifies asks from manager and project managers so that they're broken into tasks
- Tracks and notifies of deadlines or completion of specific items by others
- One-stop shop for all projects, somewhat easy to see overall view of what the team is trying to achieve in a sprint

An Accessible and Flexible Workload Management Solution
What do you like best about the product?
The software follows modern UI design trends and is very pleasant to use.
Asana templates support a variety of workload planning and tracking techniques - Lists, Gantt Charts, Kanban Boards, etc.
I can invite additional users without having to provide extensive training. Asana provides a large collection of training and support resources in their knowledge base.
I really enjoy the custom project forms for collecting data from our organization.

What do you dislike about the product?
Individual users can 'lock' their own items to avoid editing by other users. This proves difficult when a user is deactivated as Admins aren't able to unlock their items. Asana support can do this, but it's done on an ad-hoc basis - there's no option to unlock all items owned by a deactivated user.
General support has been slow when needed.
General support has been slow when needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team is able to accomplish a disproportionately high amount of project activity relative to our size. However, we needed a way to better organize, manage and gain visibility into our various projects. Asana quickly and effectively replaced our previous solution and also increased the engagement of our users.

Hard to pick this one, but I would probably say the limited design options
