set up proper training
Intuitive design helps you to manage your task simpler.
What do you like best about the product?
Asana's intuitive and elegant design allows the whole company to use it from day one. It is not difficult to see how you can handle Asana and how you can use the application. 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.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some features require more clicks compared to others, but this could be done by accidental deletion for instance. We realize this's a solution to make sure that it's not done. I delight in the point that the staff is continually working to enhance and refine the functionality.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana, the whole office of yours can be incorporated with months or perhaps even months of different concurrent. It can make it very easy to concentrate on the project of yours. Correcting the improvement of the project and keeping all of the needed info in one place is an excellent way to save the time of ours. Asana isn't just an internal member of the company, but also a part of our externals and clients. It eliminates the friction of interacting with stakeholders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana allows us to manage multiple projects in one place and also makes it easy for new organizations to Integration.
Coordinate teams and projects beautifully
What do you like best about the product?
I love that asana is a flexible tool that is not pushing the user to a specific working methodology. Instead, asana allows the user to see and organise the information in different ways, making it a versatile option that will suite all kind of needs for different departments and industries in one single place.
Also, I love that asana gives managers a complete overview of what is going on inside the company and on each department, and gives employees a detailed view on their daily, weekly and monthly priorities so nothing falls into the cracks. Making progress tracking a breeze.

What do you dislike about the product?
It has a big learning curve, which may frustrate some newbie users if they don´t have a consultant that can guide them on best practices and walk them through how to digitalise their processes into the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visibility. Asana is great to have the big picture of the company, department or team. This helps reducing duplicated tasks, unnecessary interactions, and quickly find the information you need to move forward with a task.
Productivity.

Asana is helpful but could be better
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has a very user friendly UI, and you can get your team setup within minutes. There is no in-depth training required to be able to use the program, however there is a wide range of functionality that can be used to further optimise your teams performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Once a task has been edited or a step completed there is a convoluted process to retrace the step. As an example if the step has been marked completed by the team member it is difficult for a team leader to mark that specific task back to "In process".
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used Asana whilst working for a news website and it allowed me to work on a few different article series at the same time and keep track of my progress on each article written within different departments.
Easy to use system to stay organized in tasks
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and clearly displays tasks that need to be done. Collobarotation with teammates is simple and it is helpful to have an area to leave comments or feedback.
What do you dislike about the product?
If an item does not have a deadline set it is not difficult for it be hidden as it sits off the screen if you do not scroll down.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps stay on task and show you what other team members are working on so you can be proactive in helping them stay on time if you know they will need your help.
Good project management software
What do you like best about the product?
Pretty easy to learn and use. I like that I can assign task to team members with due date along with notes to the team. I also like that you can create multiple projects and only assign the people to them that are involved with that project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sections are great for splitting up different stages of a project, but once you complete the tasks, you can't clear the section without deleting what tasks were associated with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
great for working with clients - we're able to have a central spot for project management.
Great tool for managing tasks across teams
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to see a calendared view of team tasks
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issues I've had so far is that finding where/how to make tasks recurring is not immediately obvious. Once the option is found, setting a task to recurring after it has already been completed does nothing. A user has to mark the task not complete and then mark it complete again. This causes issues with reviewing, but is a one-time issue per task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is helping the team manage a process with a lot of time-sensitive tasks and helping managers stay on top of issues.
Great visualisation tool
What do you like best about the product?
Fluidity of timelines & dependency tracking, it allows us to see in real time how things are planning out
It also allows us to see the cause and effect of moving work based on priority

What do you dislike about the product?
Setting the security on each project is more complicated than it should be.
At the start we made project locked down but didn't realise that they weren't!
Also adding people to tasks gives them visibility over the whole project, sometimes that's not required

Great collaboration tool for Marketing teams
What do you like best about the product?
Simple to use, yet packed full of powerful features, I've been an Asana user for years. I've tried a lot of tool for project and task management and it's the only one I've consistently come back to. The design and layout is carefully thought through and intuitive and most of all it's fast. While other tools promise endless features they end up getting in the way, with too many clicks required to do simple things like reorganise or complete tasks. Not Asana. It's perfect for team work and project management. I've used it heavily for planning and executing marketing campaigns with teams of creatives and marketing co-ordinators.
What do you dislike about the product?
About 2 years ago Asana went on a mission to roll out a LOT of new features. While overall I think they did this well, there's still the danger that as they add more "stuff" it will lose its focus as a project management tool and will become cumbersome to use. It still requires a bit of training for people not used to working with PM tools and you have to keep on top of how people use it, or they'll fill it with junk, but that's true of all PM tools.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing remote, distributed teams, with both internal and external stakeholders is a breeze in Asana. Standard processes like the steps needed to create and roll out a marketing campaign across 12 countries are simple with Templates. We even used it to track and approve invoices. It's super flexible.
