Flexible working space for cross-functional teams
What do you like best about the product?
Forms, rules, and status updates are my favourite. I love that I can take an idea, submit it through a form, create a backlog of requests and then triage the workload thanks to the rules features. It lets me standardize many things within the organization and have individual contributors have their designated working spaces while allowing the product team for a high-level overview and approval of the tasks being prioritized.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have come across this problem several times. Lack of flexibility in my tasks. For example, a lot of my work is captured in subtasks- while these appear in "my tasks," there are no assigned projects- and if I assign the project, its moves it to become an independent task within its origin project. The nesting, although it works great within a project, doesn't translate well to my tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Cross functionality is the problem that asana is helping our organization achieve. We have many projects going on, and with triaging and multihoming, we can adapt to specific teams' needs without switching to different software to manage things. E.g., projects in timeline view, boards, lists.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend you explore asana with the main stakeholders first and decide on best practices that work for your organization before getting everyone onboarded. Then start adopting it on a wider scale. Otherwise, there is a lot of flexibility for users to do things in various ways and might create a mess.
Collaborate seamlessly with Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I love that my whole team can be a part of Asana. It is great for event management. Multiple departments collaborate on putting together an event and Asana makes it easy to organize our assets
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't really dislike much about Asana. It can be difficult to set up and integrate at first, but once the tool is built out it becomes a great resource for project management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving problems related to missing information amongst multiple communication problems. I have realized the benefits of having a single place to store all event related information, questions, files, and status updates
Very effectful apps
What do you like best about the product?
Yes I like this company because it's very helpful for us and for this I'm connected with this company
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't find anything I disliked about it for which there is no question of disliking it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have solved many of my problems from here. The company has been working with the trust and confidence of the customer for a long time. I can believe it without tension.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The company has been working with the confidence and trust of the customer for a long time. So I recommend you to work from this company.
The best task management system weve had
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity in project management and overview tab
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of automation with the rules in an even higher subscription package
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
when subscriptions are coming up for renewal is a big one. Before we'd let them expire which would cause our clients massive problems with their domains expiring
It's a really easy-to-use collaboration tool.
What do you like best about the product?
I can share what I'm doing with others.
Even remote-working cannot be an excuse for any work-related delays.
100% clear on what the others are doing.
It helps me a lot.

What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing particular.
But I think that Korean explanation can be improved.
Other than that, no issue at all and 100% satisfied with Asana product.

Asana is everything the team needs in one place
What do you like best about the product?
Thanks to Asana's vast feature set and tool integrations, I can manage a project from start to finish without ever leaving Asana. I can intake requests through custom forms, chat questions to project owners, convert requests to projects or leave them as a task, show timelines in a visually easy to digest way, assign work to teammates with estimated hours, add cross-functional team members for visibility, share design work for review, send final files to the project owner, among other things.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish hours assigned to sub-tasks showed up in the "workload" view on portfolios. We use a custom form to gather project requests for our brand studio team and the requests auto populate in Asana as a task. When the project requests are big we convert the tasks to projects. When the project requests are small, we keep the project as a task and add subtasks for the things that need to get done to complete the project. We like to keep track of the creative team member hours (so we don't overload anyone) but the hours don't show up on their workload when the hours are assigned to subtasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana allows our team to get all the info we need without checking multiple platforms for details or messages. It also helps us share detailed project plans with cross functional partners and track creative team member work loads.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana has just about every feature you could ever need. It's up to you to use it!
Can't imagine (work) life without Asana
What do you like best about the product?
Picking my favorite Asana feature is like asking me to pick my favorite child. Is it the ability to track the progress of a project across multiple teams? The ability to attach relevant files to their associated task? Maybe it's the (premium) power to mark one task dependent on another. There is so much to Asana that makes my everyday work life so much less chaotic.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would love a little more customization at the premium level for controlling team structures. But I'm fairly certain that's available at a higher level of Asana, and that's understandable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana saves us from small pieces of a larger project falling through the cracks. Once our team has identified that something might be overlooked, it simply becomes an Asana task in our Project Templates so we can be confident it's not lost in the process the next time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There is a fully free version of Asana available to try. My company used this for several years and Asana became almost a part of our company culture. If you're considering Asana I'd recommend starting there and once you love it upgrade to unlock additional features--you won't be disappointed.
Asana = Key to Organizing Organizations!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is extremely easy to use and learn. The platform constantly adds new features and functions, keeping it competitive among other platforms in the same space.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana can sometimes move features to new places when the platform gets updated. This can be a little tricky if you're not constantly engaging with the feature announcement emails/videos/webinars, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There was no task tracking system available for my organization when I joined. They tracked projects in a google spreadsheet, but there are no features for automations/workflows in place to automate the process. We also use Asana to track workloads/available hours, goalsetting, and overall office productivity.
Asana is great for management of tasks, both small and large projects.
What do you like best about the product?
It helps me to keep track of my tasks and is very helpful with group projects to see where everyone is up to with their portion of the task. it helps the business run smoothly.
What do you dislike about the product?
there is some conflict between adding time in asana and harvest that cn get quite confusing for some members of the team. it would be good to just have one system so that there is no longer confusion.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
time management was a big issue but with spreading the tasks much easier through asana and seeing how long till the due date this has made things much easier for the team
Recommendations to others considering the product:
it is a great tool for businesses to keep track of projects.
Asana has let me grow my business
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has helped me scale my business and provide a professional face to my clients. Clients have also started using Asana now!
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes think being a blank sheet of paper has its downside. The app is so flexible that it can get confusing. Maybe it's just me, though.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving project management problems with Asana. My work involves a lot of coordination and sharing of updates with my team and clients. Asana helps me!
