Detailed project management tool that helps keep processes straight and teams aligned

  • May 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that your task view is customizable and can become very detailed. The task sharing really allows our teams to stay aligned. It's a lot easier to create processes that automatically put a task on your to-do list with Asana. I love that you can integrate Asana with Slack so that your tasks don't get lost in the chat. You can make sure that someone's work request to you is thought out and checks all of the details that you need. I appreciate the auto-saving feature and the intuitive UI. At the end of the year when I have to report to my boss all of the projects that I've completed, Asana helps me write those performance reviews and self-evaluations. I can get very detailed in my reports because I have a history of my project management details.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the most difficult things about Asana is keeping it updated. I wish I could set a date where things would automatically check themselves off. Sometimes it gets a bit manual to go in and clean up your board if you forget about it for a while. Everyone has different styles and levels of detail in the way they maintain Asana so sometimes giving others access to your board can really throw off your groove. I dislike how daunting it can feel to keep up with all the moving pieces of your boards. I also wish that I could pull up multiple boards at the same time on the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to request tasks from other teams, keep track of my projects for self-evaluations, manage projects from inception to completion, assign collaborators for tasks that are dependent on outside teams, give my manager visibility into my work, and keep my to-do list straight.

Asana is a great collaboration tool for project management

What do you like best about the product?
Asana really is an "if you can dream it you can do it" platform. There's so many ways you can customize your views and projects to make it work for business collaborations, professional development, or even personal use.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I share a task to two different projects, I wish that I could change the naming conventions based on the project but still have it linked.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have better clarity into what needs to get done, what hasn't been done, and help keep everyone accountable to their deadlines.

Big fan of the calendar feature!

  • May 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy Asanas calendar feature for visualization, that's important to me. As well the subtasks help with larger complicated projects and it's nice the project manager can organize things out for me in there. Also like the CSV upload feature for projects we do layouts of first, although I'd make some changes to the upload's mapping abilities to add more features.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly the inbox for online doesn't work very well. Most people at my company use Asana in browser for some reason(I know it's not designed this way sorry) and so it's sometimes easy to miss important comments on projects. I think pop up notif's in the bottom corner that the user has to manually close might be useful to prevent that(as a feature that could be turned on or off). I've also run into an issue where project managers will assign me something in a board but it somehow never shows up on my personal boars which is irritating. Lastly for CSV upload I think an expansion of features would be useful, like Asana being able to update tasks via csv upload and categories and multiple project boards being able to be included for tasks so you don't have to back-edit tasks after large uploads.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is primarily used by my team as a planning and communication tool, I think the primary problems we're solving would be organizing tasks and projects as well as showing kpi and performance through task tracking.

Asana is essential for our business

  • May 18, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes it easy to collaborate and be updated with the tasks of our agency. I love the idea of having everything organized in one place and within easy access.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only downside I see is the limitation regarding the use of gifs as a comment, for example. Or at least expanding the list of the celebration animations, which we use a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We keep all the tasks of both clients and the company in Asana. It helps us focus on the business and the next project to be delivered. As we can also break each project down into small pieces, Asana also helps us to be more productive.

An excellent tool for managing projects across a team

  • May 18, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The user interface is super easy to navigate. It's easy for new team members to get up and running with very little training, making onboarding a sinch, especially compared to other project management tools I've used in the past.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs more integrations and personalization options. There are only a few themes to choose from and I don't believe there is an integration with Github. Also, tags can get a bit out of hand if not managed properly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Used for managing web development projects. I really enjoyed how easy it is to set up new projects and create new labels, so we can easily see how we are utilizing our time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for an easy-to-us project management tool that empowers team collaboration, this could be the right tool for you.

What do you like best about the product?
First of all, the graphic user interface is straightforward, fantastic, and easy to understand. It follows the "5 second rules" for me, as it took me just 5 seconds to understand what this app for
What do you dislike about the product?
Well, the integration with my note-taking application is missing. I love my Evernote app, which should be integrated with this application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
No doubt getting the team onboard is USP for the slack and it proves out to be true. For me , as dealing with multiple organization I can keep track of whats going on and where the problem start. I don't have to ask someone
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I always recommend new technologies, and I am a kind of a geek. My belief system is that technology can help you make life better. I always recommend and also help others to learn new technologies, and ASANA is one on my bucket list
