Great tool for keeping tabs on projects across teams.

What do you like best about the product?
I like the customization it offers to be able to integrate, streamline, and tackle projects in a way that is best suited for your workstyle. I get a lot of enjoyment from getting to see what i've achieved in my check-list.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found it a little difficult to understand how to customize everything in the beginning, only because there is so much that the platform offers so I needed to establish how to best navigate the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cross-team collaboration for projects. It helps us create, assign, and tackle tasks in a manner where the team is completely looped in. It helps us stay on track with timelines as well.

Best software for task management!

  • November 04, 2022

What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Asana for a while and found it is one of the best tools available in the market for managing all your tasks and projects with its simple user interface and automation settings. You can invite teammates, collaborate with them and get all your tasks finished on the go.
What do you dislike about the product?
The thing which I think Asana can implement to make it better than the other software in the market is to have the option to create notes and then integrate them with the projects rather than having a notepad to keep track of all our notes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us manage our day-to-day activities, and assign and prioritize task which needs to be done first. It helps us manage the projects between the teams and get all the work done without missing one.

Asana : The best project management software

  • November 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It makes it simple to manage all my chores and projects in one location. The assistance is also fantastic! Thanks to some beneficial tools of Asana, I have been able to stay on top of my work and obligations. I especially love the tracking features. I like that you can edit tasks while still being able to create reminders for them. I also enjoy that they keep the whole team in touch and under observation, allowing everyone to see how productive they have been or what chores are still outstanding, which is something we do not know. Additionally, Asana offers Unlimited tasks, projects, messages, activity logs, and file storage; yet, the Free Pricing is tolerant enough to allow collaboration with up to 10 or 15 more users.
What do you dislike about the product?
The lack of an undo button in Asana is something I don't like. I occasionally make mistakes that I need to fix but am unable to. Although it features a style similar to Smartsheet and allows you to set up several teams or projects, it is less organized than Smartsheet. It can quickly become highly disorganized. In my opinion, you should be able to access your assignments and projects from several organizations in one location. Some improvements might be made to the user interface. As an illustration, pressing "Enter" without intending to do so starts a new task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We required a platform to inform the stakeholders of the projects other teams were working on and how they related to our primary objectives. This makes it simple to keep track of all the tasks required for a project. I also appreciate being able to provide projects to particular people and specify due dates. Asana functions like a muscle that we regularly work out to become much more productive at work and faster at all activities. I also adore the software's various views, including lists, calendars, tasks, and timelines. Overall, I love that Asana is super easy to use but has more advanced features when needed. I hope Asana continues developing its features because doing so will benefit us.

Complete task and activity management toolset

  • November 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It can easily flex between a list view or a sticky-note style board. The tasks are easy to drag and drop and asana links between platforms. I guess all of which is pretty standard for these types of software. What pulls ASANA ahead - the My Tasks view, and that you can have specific rules running on your My Task view to organise the activities how you need them.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tickets can be difficult to see where they start and where they end. It takes a while to get used to the interface as it's not as clear as Trello at visually identifying different pieces of work. Also the notifications can get a bit much, so you need to often manage notifications - turning them off isn't easy because then you miss out on important tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Activity and task management for projects across various departments - our business lives in Asana. We use it to set dependencies and track work that might need to be completed in a few months time.

The inestimable contribution of Asana

  • November 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing about Asana is that it allows me to automate the most essential aspects of a process. This saves me a lot of time and energy, which I can put into other tasks. Additionally, as someone who likes highly visual representations, I appreciate the board view feature, which gives me a quick overview of all activities. With this feature, I can remember what needs to get done. Consequently, managing multiple projects at once in an organized manner is extremely helpful for efficiency. Nevertheless, working in a team usually requires changes in habit and procedure, but luckily Asana provides some leeway - like in the "my chores" section - which is fantastic!
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike about Asana is that standard components of a current project management automation system occasionally need to be present. This causes me to use Flowsana more often than desired and makes it difficult to practice all Flowsana postures directly in Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps Coordinate the time required to finish client programs and support those programs. Utilizing Asana for planning and implementation initiatives helps keep things on track.

Asana just made my days a whole lot easier

  • November 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Just stepping up to using a project management software from sticky notes on my wall has been a tremendous boost in my productivity so I want to caution readers that this is the only one of it's type I have tried so keep that in mind. I did demo briefly a few others but going from post-its on my wall to any PM software is like discovering fire for the first time. Being an extreme non-technical serial founder I've always had a tech geek or two or five in a back room somewhere doing all this for me...I'd slide pizzas under their door a few times a day and out would come my finished project. But my technical co-founder on this startup and I had a falling out and he bailed at a point to get another into the mix and up to speed so I'm taking this one as a solopreneur and doing all the tech side myself so also take that into consideration as well as meaning...If I can do it a pig wearing a birthday hat can do it ok? So the basic UX around this one is VERY easy to grasp right away. That's what I needed and that's what I got right away.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike all the little daily reminders nipping at my heels which you don't have to have turned on but as a procrastinator, I need them so I have them turned on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The team I have is a new Co-founder who brings wealth and knowledge with her within the industry (vacation rentals) and years of high-level corporate management experience with her but she's out of state doing what she does all day long so she does not relieve me from wearing two hats. The basic premise of this one is not an app or piece of code but rather more of a real estate fix and flip when you boil it all down starting out with the renovation of 8 structures situated on 20 acres of open range up at 9,200ft in a national forest, followed by the complete rebuilding of all utility infrastructure then adding in glamping sites, events, and last but not least a sidebar 501c3 Equestrian Therapy component. That boils down to a lot of post-it notes of many different colors on my walls with string running from one to another as complimentary projects or successive projects. Follow? So what Asana has done for me is provide me with a very "pig in a birthday hat" easy solution.

Asana is the online agenda everyone needs!

  • November 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great collaborative space where your entire team can create tasks, share and assign projects as well as give you a to do list to remind you of your tasks! It's so helpful for teams that intertwine on many projects!
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana can take some time getting use to. It also does not have a time-tracking feature, which could be useful since it is focused on organization and project management!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps our company stay organized and on top of deadlines! It helps us communicate, plan and schedule many projects! Definitely helps our productivity and keeping each other accountable.

Who. What. When. Clear way to reduce conflict.

  • November 02, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is built on the basics: track who will do what, by when. This is the foundation of integrity. The many features of Asana build upon this foundation, with a rich, easy user experience.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana's flexibility (it can be configured for many different use cases) can be hard for beginners to understand.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps teams, individuals, and organizations to clarify and communicate on their way to achieving their objectives. I find it intuitive to track my deliverables, coordinate with other stakeholders, and connect work across functions.

Great project/task management tool for a small but growing team

  • November 02, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is helpful for our small nonprofit team as we grow both in size and need for systems/accountability. The project templates are helpful and so are the rules and forms you can create for workflows.
What do you dislike about the product?
So many of the helpful features are only available when you upgrade your plan, and that information is not very clear when you watch tutorial or help videos.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Setting up project templates has saved us so much time and helped our team plan/work further ahead on projects so we are not doing things as rushed/last minute as we were before.


    Lisa K.

A great project management tool with lots of customisable features.

  • November 01, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful thing about Asana is the ability to manage my team's resources using the workload function. This enables me to adequately manage my team's workload, ensure no single person is taking on too much, and identify capacity gaps.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like to be able to assign tasks to more than one person at a time and for dates in templates to be able to be set to "x days after preceding task" rather than after the start date.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workload management, project management from one centralised location, the ability to see all of a colleague's work in one place (across different projects) makes it easier to reallocate work in the event of absence.
