Great for managing productivity and to-do lists
What do you like best about the product?
I find it extremely helpful at work when trying to prioritize what I should be working on. It's more than just a to-do list because I can see exactly who is accountable for what aspect of a task.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a better way to integrate it with Outlook rather than the calendar within the Asana app so that I could have all my calendar information in the same place.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helped me to become more productive with my time.
Best app for organising an organisation
What do you like best about the product?
I have used this app from the day it was launched and it has been an absolute pleasure since the user interface is extremely easy to use, beautiful and always on your side. Management of each user is a bliss with individual time tracking per task.
What do you dislike about the product?
It does not work on my old iPad mini anymore. Takes up a reasonable amount of ram when open in your browser.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have managed crews for shooting student short films at university.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This app is the best out there.
Home in Asana
What do you like best about the product?
What don't I like!? Project management at it's finest. Let's start at the home page. From the moment you sign on, you can see all the tasks that are assigned to you be it late, that day or future. I love that people can have their own private individual or group projects, that you can assign tasks and dates and deadlines. Asana is constantly updating and improving and presents these updates to you in a a user-friendly way. It's amazin!
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, there's not much I dislike about Asana. Nothing that particularly comes to mind, anyway. Yes, at first glance it can be totally confusing. But there's so much to do! I guess I would wish they'd have a cheaper option for teams of 2-3 people who still want full access to the site and everything it allows. But at the end of the day the cost is worth it regardless.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana I was able to get a very disorganized and disoriented team member on the same page as everyone else. Asana allows you to create really user-friendly custom fields. We collect a lot of information here, and the task management in asana allows for easy staff turnover, as most of our processes are saved in here just by sheer tasks.
Simple and user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
Help my team collaborate, share information, plan workload and projects
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, I cant say that there is anything I don't like
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication in my team. We use Slack and then create tasks from slack and put them in projects in Asana. We then tag the projects and link them to OKRs
Love Asana! Super helpful for event management.
What do you like best about the product?
That you can assign tasks and add deadlines to tasks. It makes it easy to collaborate and prioritize. It's made it easy to be able to see all my events in one place and to plan for my workload accordingly. It really easy to use, the support and training available from Asana are great.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a better task template feature. Sometimes switching between view could be better, or it would be nice to be able to see attachments (PDF and spreadsheets), directly in the platform without having to download.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Planning events and tracking deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend, it's a useful tool. Even the free version is a good place to start managing your projects.
By far the best tool to organize anything - personal to team-based.
What do you like best about the product?
Asana's complicated...but simple. It's hard to describe, there's an elegance in the design that makes it incredibly easy to find yourself falling into an extremely productive and personalized organizational system. I personally track my entire sales pipeline inside Asana, for example, as I can see what I need to see - and not see what I don't want to see, all with minimal set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
I could go for a better mobile app, or some automation behind automatically assigning tasks to myself if it's a personal board. Unattributed tasks can get lost at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm personally organizing both my family activities, as well as my sales pipeline within Asana.
For my family activities, it really helps me make sure I'm covering the bases I want to cover to be a great friend, husband, and father. For my sales pipeline, I have a card for each opportunity as well as a column for when I'm expecting the business - the board view plus the list view and custom fields makes it an incredibly efficient tool to look at my pipeline from afar.
Prior to my new role, I had organized our entire sales development team from Asana as well, each person was a card, and it allowed me, as the administrator, to assign tasks to managers to follow up and/or give feedback on each individual person in an incredibly organized manner.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Highly recommended.
I've vetted out several project management tools, from JIRA to Trello. It accomplishes that perfect in-between of functionality and simplicity. Don't underestimate the value of simplicity.

Easy to use task manager
What do you like best about the product?
You can assign tasks to different users and see other users tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I like all aspects of Asana thus far. Very much what we needed in a task management tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing the lists of tasks needing to be completed. Sorting the tasks by due date has been a great advantage for users to see what needs to be done and when.
Great for Workflow and Team Projects
What do you like best about the product?
I love having Asana as a project management app for our team. It’s easy to assign tasks during meeting and set deadlines. I also love the rainbow narwhals that shoot across the screen! It makes me want to get stuff done!
What do you dislike about the product?
I am using the free version and it would be nice to have a calendar accessible on the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It’s made delegation and task management flow so much easier. It’s great to keep track of what my employees are doing.

Would prefer to have HIPAA compliance due to sensitive info
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Collaborate with team members on ecommerce project
What do you like best about the product?
I find the task creation and sharing the most helpful as everyone can see who is doing what and by what deadline. The messaging is also well designed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how the inbox is arranged where you need to scroll to find the most recent comment on a thread.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quicker communication and organization between team members, which was difficult before because we work virtually at different locations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
