Effective task scheduling, collaboration and tracking
What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes it very easy to manage a task list or a small project schedule in a Kanban or list view.
I really like emailing to create a task as well as create custom data fields. This makes adhoc time tracking very easy to do.
The kanban view helps when managing a specific sprint or smaller area of focus. The intra-project linking is also a useful feature.

What do you dislike about the product?
Reporting is simple and based on saved filters but it lacks calculating sub-totals for custom fields or delivered fields.
It would be helpful to easily export to Excel based on filtered fields and support in-app sub-totals and totals

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improving productivity and task planning are solved with Asana easily. By creating a list view and then organizing the list into Today, Upcoming and future really helps to setup the priority and tasks.
It also helps me better organize my email inbox as I can simply forward an email to my Asana account and plan accordingly.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is by far the best PM platform available.
Excellent project management software for small to large teams.
What do you like best about the product?
Flexibility of the software, and ongoing improvements to address the needs of companies and teams managing diverse projects. The paid version for some teams at our company is wonderful for setting up 1-1 meetings, organizing projects by portfolios, creating custom fields, and also setting up automated workflows. Integrations with other software like HubSpot, Slack, and Gmail also make Asana a great tool for our company.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a learning curve and adoption process to get team members to use; the flexibility is great when you know what you want to build, but it can also be helpful to provide more structure and direction up front for usage of the software. Since Asana has so many users with different needs and requests, it may take a little longer for customized requests to get addressed. If norms of usage aren't set up, then there's also a lack of consistency in how the platform is being used across the company that may cause some challenges as it relates to corporate-wide collaboration.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The software is excellent for promoting transparency of work across the company, as more collaboration is happening remotely and across geographies. Within the system, users are able to clearly assign tasks with responsibilities and deadlines, and keep track of comment threads and files as they relate to each project. Asana has also been useful to keep track of messages and organize corporate brand elements, as well as setting up a social media and content calendar for the Marketing team.

Work management at is best
What do you like best about the product?
Very intuitive platform, allows me to get the job done without getting in the middle
What do you dislike about the product?
This applies to any work management app; without a business framework asana is just a powerful tool. Is best when asana is paired with something like GTD or similar
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We apply asana to almost all our business processes. Currently we are implementing GTD across the company
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Implement asana with some work management strategy or methodology like GTD. We did not do this at the start and have discovered it would have helped tons
Hands down, the best management tool I've ever used
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Asana for the last 5 years. This is absolutely universal tool.
It could be useful for personal day to day tasks like fast notes and personal agenda as well as a large company management instrument.
As CEO in one and COO in the second company, I've been using it for building the company structure and processes from scratch.
This is the best example, showing the flexibility of Asana.
It's absolutely well-designed and ready to use right from the box instrument.
Moreover, for non-standard structures and company tasks, the only limitation is the management team's creativity level. Managers should be set to think out of the box and they will definitely find the way to set Asana for solving any problem.

What do you dislike about the product?
There's no such thing)
There was a problem for me, as COO. I felt a lack of information about upcoming and actual details on Asana product updates.
After receiving the status of Asana Ambassador I've no longer experiencing any disadvantages.
Now I'm confident with my plans for the company workflow improvements.

Asana helps me track and reach more goals than ever before
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a business that focuses on getting the user experience right for its users. As a User Experience Designer, I'm often inspired by the simplicity of Asana. They make it so easy to organize everything about your work into doable chunks, so I can continue to make progress towards much bigger goals.
We also use Portfolio quite often to track capacity in the department. Because the whole team tracks their estimated hours, Portfolio is updated in real-time. This eliminates the need to check in with the team and wait for a manual response to "Who's got the capacity to take on this task?"

What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't something about Asana that I dislike. They push updates to the system consistently that further enhance the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps me keep track of the goals I'd like to achieve. The interface makes it easy to set big goals for myself, and then break it down into smaller achievable bits. By using Asana as my primary workflow organizer, I manage to get so much more done, compared to the days where I used to have notebooks as to-do lists. In Asana, my notes are all organized into the relevant tasks, which ensures that nothing slips through the cracks. Asana helps me to bring my A-game to work.
