One of the best collaborative tools for WFH teams

  • October 06, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Being my first experience with project management tools, working with Asana was really so easy. You will require little or no help to understand the task distribution and the overall workflow. Managing our day-to-day task with Asana is quite simple. For the project managers, creating a new project and its subtasks is straightforward. Once the tasks are created they can be easily assigned to teams, just by names.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually, there is no demerits or disadvantages to this application. The app works the best for all scenarios and project handling. Even if I compare it with EverNote I will prefer using Asana as it covers all the worthy features for project management. However, if I had to list one demerit then it would be its pricing. Once the pricing structure for paid Asana editions will become less, it will do wonders in the IT market.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I feel Asana is capable of handling everything, basic to complex projects. Task handling is very smooth and you don't need to refer to any tutorials for it. Yes, I have used a limited set of features but the free version is still better than the other tools. Talking about its visuals, the interface is neat and easy to understand. You can keep a track of all the tasks that have been assigned to you and you can change their status accordingly as working, done or completed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For new startup businesses, who have just entered into IT industry, Asana is the best tool for teams collaboration. The way it offers an option to create multiple projects and their subtasks is super. On top of that, you can set up priorities and deadlines for a specific task. Managers can easily keep an eye on the progress of the work whether it's pending or has been completed. Though I have not used the Premium and Business features, the Basic version will also do a great job.
In short, I would highly recommend it for the work for home culture.

Prioritize Tasks, Work Freely and Remotely...!!!

  • October 06, 2021

What do you like best about the product?
The best thing I like about Asana is that we can have internal chats and comments over the tasks and projects we have created over the dashboard. Also, it updates with notifications when any team member updates about his task with the milestones in the tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
It makes the notification tray messy when we have more than one task assigned to teams, and we are regularly updating all projects. At that point, the notifications are flooded seamlessly, and there is nothing sort of priority thing at that point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working in an organization and assigning tasks to the development team and research team by adding them over to their specific projects and providing each group ember all the necessary updates and information about the product development and progress in the work. All the features of Asana are pretty awesome.

Useful but Requires a Lot of Training

What do you like best about the product?
I love how customizable it is to any business. It's an awesome way to organize all our assets!
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a lot of training to get fully up to speed on all the functionalities. Not as user-friendly as I'd like.

We're using Asana to organize all our marketing assets for the company.

Great for a growing team!

  • October 04, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to collaborate with my team, multiple project view options, dependencies allow for approval processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that you have to purchase bundles of seats when you run out. I want to add them one by one as we grow and not ten at a time. Some of the functions of dependencies are great, but the ability to customize workflows for assignments and processes would be beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration via email can be so chaotic. Asana allows our team to have a single source of truth for projects, events, programs, and requests. We used to use a google slide deck to update our team on different activities. Asana enables team members to log in anytime, anywhere, to find all of the information they need. With international team members working opposite hours, that means they can keep working without having to wait until the next workday for an answer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is an excellent project management and collaboration tool for a growing team! We've scaled from 5-10 users to 40+ in the last year, and it continues to be a valuable tool to keep us on track!

What do you like best about the product?
One of the things I like about Asana is how easy to use its task list, it is very modern and practical, you can list all kinds of tasks you can think of and then do them, you can set an alarm or reminder which will help you to be more productive and keep in mind all the projects you might forget, another feature is its excellent compatibility with other operating systems and electronic devices, it is a very convenient program.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software has not let me down in any way, it has fulfilled everything I needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped me and the team I work with to be more efficient and productive workers. Asana supports us with a variety of state-of-the-art and very practical functions which makes our understanding, knowledge and skills much better at work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a software you can rely on.

Great project management tool for business and personal

What do you like best about the product?
Super user friendly, love different view options (list, table, etc.), Instagantt integration, easy to collaborate with others
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice to have an easier way to toggle between accounts, but maybe this is doable in the desktop app? I generally use the web app
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Help planning and coordination across multiple internal and external stakeholders
- Realized benefits include better alignment across goals, action items/deliverables, and timelines

Useful for tracking projects & team collaboration

  • September 28, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use in task list type items. Ease of template setup and use for reoccuring projects with similar setup but varying team member engagement. Easy to setup template for full scope of project then remove any task items which are not necessary for a specific project. Easy to tie into Zapier tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
A little cumbersome to tie into various solutions, i.e., SmartSheet, DocuSign, Teams. This will be extremely variable based on the amount of support/buy in to the tool and integration with other solutions. Especially when allowing access to users external from your organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to track project status, task list items for each project and store notes for individual tasks. Due dates are easily assigned by dependancies within a template or in a free standing project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking to integrate with Teams or other applications, ensure your technical support team can allow access to ensure you can take advantage of add-ins or integrations. There are many great integrations. Another suggestion would be to consider whether or not your project(s) will require input from users outside of your organization and making sure you have an understanding of how that will work. Understanding the security/views/permissisions is key, but extremely doable.

What do you dislike about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of my to-dos, status
