What do you like best about the product?
Very user-friendly and simple interface for beginners to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
The premium features require a bit of training.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing projects, various teams, meeting deadlines and achieving goals.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
attend Asana workshops and webinars to understand the products and how you can best implement in your organisation.
Great way to stay orgnaized!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the tasks feature. It has saved my brain so much pain. I have a tendency to forget a lot of small tasks but Asana has helped me stay on top of my job , so much so that my boss has noticed!
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a little hard to understand at first. When we first started using it I get really stressed looking at all the features, but that's about it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly issues with organizing my tasks and reminding me of deadlines for awards or press releases.
Best project management platform with low learning curve
What do you like best about the product?
Although it has many features, you don't have to know much to get started. You simply create a task, give it a due date, and assign it. The hierarchy of tasks inside projects, and projects inside portfolios, is an easy way to share work to management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana does not offer a great way to view projects as a Gantt chart, for organizations who demand that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have cut the number of communications between departments by using notifications and Slack integration.
I really love Asana.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the way that Asana creates space for meaningful, asynchronous collaboration around work right where the work is being completed. I love the way we've been able to systematize our processes - and especially our communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish templates, workflows, and forms could be copied across projects. My job is largely helping people work together, and that means a lot of repetitive work rebuilding things I've already developed in other projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are tracking work, noticing where work is getting stuck and resolving impediments that are slowing us down, creating transparency around what is being done by whom, and facilitating easy meeting agendas around the work that's actually being done!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is so adaptable! You can make this system work for you, especially if you're willing to dive into the (excellent) training videos and establish norms around how you work with others on your team. I am obsessed with Asana because it has given me ease in my daily work.
Asana is the smoothest and prettiest solution to our organizational needs
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is smooth, fast, and beautiful. It's an elegant solution to any project/task management needs that my small company has, and it's more powerful and capable than any other platform I've used.
What do you dislike about the product?
It broke my heart when Asana muted their color palette; I wish that there was more visual differentiation. Also, the inability to save task templates to be used workspace/organization-wide is limiting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before, my team was using Salesforce to house our work and manage tasks. It was clunky, because SF is a CRM and isn't designed to handle project/task management. Asana was obviously created for this very purpose, and it's much more effective.
Best Invention Ever!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has been a part of my work life for over a year now. As an executive assistant, it keeps me updated on what I need to do so that I never miss an assignment. I would be lost if it wasn't for Asana. Thank you!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about the feature. Everything works exactly as it should and there are never issues with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have never missed an important date or task---thanks to Asana. I can easily share status with my colleagues on pending assignments and share/respond to feedback almost instantly. This is great!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is going to be your new best friend. It is great, easy to use, and for administrative assistants like me, a dream come true. Organize your life now!
Best project management system that I have ever used
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how user friendly it is. Asana works well with other important systems that my organization uses.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that my organization does not have the Business level of Asana...we're working on it; however, we are a nonprofit
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped our team with the flow of project management and accountability for those projects
It runs our entire remote and in-person operation.
What do you like best about the product?
The accountability is second to none. Having people tag who needs to know what, set deadlines, and make it easy to monitor progress and response has changed our game.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is slow to add features we really need - and I don't love the graphic experience (I do love the narwhals and such - just wish I could make it cleaner appearing). There are add ons that allow us to get the workflow we want but we wish it could either integrate more easily with 3rd party apps or function such that we don't need them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accountability
Communications - we've all but eliminated email
Discovering holes in our processes and finding ways to solve them

Recommendations to others considering the product:
You need to get at least one person certified as an Asana ambassador who administrates and trains, not a full-time role, but it should be someone devoted to that expertise or you won't be successful in adopting it - and you'll likely need to get fluent in Zapier in order to get the most out of the software.
Organization
What do you like best about the product?
The most useful thing about Asana is that it helps you define workflows in your team. The advantages are many: Better organization. Effective productivity. Tracking and achievement of goals.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I don't like is that it doesn't let me convert already structured projects into the components of another project. I can import or do tasks from another project, but it doesn't allow me to pull the entire project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
definition of processes, structure of new and established areas.
creation of workflows in a department.
Distribution of new tasks
tracking of objectives.

Great tool for tracking tasks and getting work done!
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of creating a task. This makes it pretty much impossible to forget to record a task for future effort.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sorting and viewing items is very limited. This should be expanded so that data can be filtered in any way which is useful to the organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking recurring tasks, yearly renewals, etc. The benefit is that these things can be worked proactively instead of reacting to an overdue notice.
