Effortless Task Management and Project Planning
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to view tasks, switch between different perspectives, and make use of the timeline for managing projects and events has proven to be extremely helpful!
What do you dislike about the product?
One problem I encounter is that I repeatedly receive a "Your trial has expired" error, which forces me to access Asana via an email link in order to get around it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana brings all our projects together in a single place, making it easy to share tasks and track visible progress.
Effortless Task Management with Timely Reminders
What do you like best about the product?
I really appreciate how Asana sends me clear notifications and pop-ups whenever a task is assigned to me, which I find extremely handy. These real-time alerts help me manage my tasks efficiently and ensure that I stay on top of my responsibilities without needing to log in constantly to check what needs to be done. This feature of delivering notifications helps me take timely actions rather than waiting or forgetting tasks, especially when I'm busy. Additionally, I like the intuitive setup of Asana, which allows for easy task allocation among team members. It was straightforward to start using Asana without requiring formal training. The software is intuitive enough for the team to learn and explore its various functionalities and features independently. I also love how Asana helps in merging action items into broader projects and organizes them efficiently, reducing my need to set up meetings as I can keep track of everything through the platform itself. I am particularly impressed with the way it helps me release bandwidth by simplifying actions and reviews without extra meetings, and how it gives a good control over security features, allowing me to decide who can see specific actions. Overall, I am very satisfied with Asana's performance and usability.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Asana could be improved by offering a clearer and more structured project plan and timeline feature. It would be beneficial to have some sort of project matrices or a project status dashboard that provides a clear snapshot of all activities and projects, where they stand, and my overall performance. This could be integrated into their current system, perhaps delivered through email or notification models, to help me better manage and track progress without needing to log in and check manually.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to track and remind my team and me of actions and activities, ensuring timely completion and nothing is missed. It reduces meeting time by providing easy updates and aids in reviewing project statuses and deliverables.
Effortless Task Management with Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I love Asana's infinite level of sub-tasking, which allows me to break down big tasks further and further. This feature is incredibly beneficial because if a task initially, or even during execution, seems too big, it is very easy to break the task into further sub-tasks and handle them independently. The initial setup of Asana was very easy for me, which made transitioning to using the platform smooth and without hassle. I am confident in recommending Asana to others, as reflected in my high likelihood (a score of 10) of doing so.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it inconvenient that sub-tasks in Asana don't automatically become part of the same project as their parent task. Each time I create a sub-task, I have to manually assign it to the project which feels repetitive and time-consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to break down projects into tasks, assign due dates, and separate projects into workspaces, allowing infinite sub-tasking for handling tasks independently.

Clunky with Limited High-Level Planning Capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy Asana's ability to handle multiple projects on one item, which is particularly useful in my workflow. This feature allows me to seamlessly move tasks from one sprint to another while providing clear visibility into the duration and feasibility of the tasks. I also appreciate the capability to have collaborators involved, which enhances teamwork and ensures that everyone is on the same page, making the workflow more efficient and organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find Asana quite clunky. The sub-issues cannot be moved easily, making task organization cumbersome. Additionally, it's too customizable, which can be overwhelming and detracts from its usability. Asana is not good for providing a 10,000-foot view necessary for product tracking, and it struggles with tracking epics effectively.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana for work tracking, enabling me to move tasks seamlessly across sprints and assess task feasibility over time, thanks to its collaboration and project management features.
Keeps Me Organized, But Interface Can Be Overwhelming
What do you like best about the product?
it helps me to keep everything organized and keep me on schedule.
What do you dislike about the product?
the interface can be a bit overwhelming at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
asana solves the workflow problem. i am able to see what the people above me and below me in the company are doing.
Intuitive UI, Flexible Work Styles
What do you like best about the product?
I like the intuitive User Interface (UI) of Asana, which allows anyone to seamlessly work off the same dataset and view work according to their preference, whether in lists, timelines, or swimlanes. This flexibility is beneficial for team collaboration, as it accommodates different working styles and ensures the entire team can effectively collaborate to achieve milestones. The fact that Asana enables team members to operate in their own style while converging on common goals is a significant advantage. Additionally, I find the setup process for Asana to be very easy, which greatly facilitates onboarding and reduces downtime when adopting the platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to set date values instead of setting a date for tasks in project boards. If a task takes 5 days to complete and you need to push it back, you have to go in and update the date values and subsequent tasks thereafter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana for marketing projects, managing resources, and timelines efficiently. It lets my team work in different styles to achieve milestones collaboratively and view data in lists, timelines, or swimlanes.
Easy to Use, But more unicorns
What do you like best about the product?
I like how straightforward it is to use, and communicate with my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like when I complete a task, and there is not one of the little unicorn characters. I look forward to those.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Intuitive UI and Versatile Project Views Make Asana a Standout
What do you like best about the product?
The project view type (list, board, timeline) is something that I like about Asana. Additionally its intuitive UI does not have a hard learning curve associated with it.
What do you dislike about the product?
A single assignee per task is something that has made collaborating on projects difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana integrates smoothly with other task management software, which has made it much easier to collaborate with larger teams and external stakeholders.
