Flexible Collaboration Tool

  • July 01, 2020
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The tool has a great intuitive (and aesthetically pleasing) task display with an archiving function.
Tasks and all their functionalities are my favorite aspect of Asana, tasks can have sub-tasks, attachments, collaborators, due dates, deadlines, custom fields, comments and can even be linked to other tasks. And in case you don't like seeing your tasks in a list, you can easily switch to a kanban board for even more task-organizing options.

This makes it effortless to find all the information you need in one place, we all know how time consuming it can be to search for a projects work history.
What do you dislike about the product?
Unfortunately the tool does not have an in-built document editing tool. Although you can attach files and even attach images where teammates can add commentary, there is no live, collaborative document-editing function.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team has always been overworked but have never been able to pinpoint how or why. Finally, we are able to track our workload and measure it using the workload tool. Visibility of each persons struggles and achievements have been fundamental in strengthening our relationship as a team and increasing our team value in the eyes of the business. We have used the extracts from Asana to build a case to secure more head count and expand our team!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're considering switching to Asana from another project management tool or if this is the first project management tool you use, I can assure you that you won't be overwhelmed! Things are simple and intuitive and within a day you will feel as if you have been using the tool for years. Also, there are TONS of materials available to help you become an Asana pro.

It is not difficult to see how you can handle Asana in the company of yours and the way to use the application. It's a really stylish and extremely powerful interface design. The ability to use lists and tables and to transition between the formats is quite helpful and this's just among the many customization options, so each end user is able to do what they like with I believe it may be customized.
