Asana works great!

  • October 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana keeps everything in one place. I can communicate with everyone, send files, and manage projects directly through Asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
If I turn on notifations - i get WAY too many. I have to keep my notifications turned off and just check my inbox to see what's changed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team all works from home and can communicate nearly everything through Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Everyone on your team needs to be using Asana in the same manner (i.e. updating projects, marking things as complete, etc.) for it to work best.

What do you like best about the product?
It is a great way to visualize tasks both long term and short term so you always know what you should be doing.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about asana, it is a great tool that works perfectly

We are a seasonal organization so during the winter months when everything slows down this is a great time for us to catch up on organization and make adjustments to our processes. Asana is a great tool to keep track of this.

Asana

  • October 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana helps divide up the workflow in order to split up tasks. This has helped my team greatly in the over all organization and flow of our work process. We will continue to use Asana until we find a better Customer Relation Management System (CRM) that is perhaps more user friendly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is not always user friendly for newer employees. For example, implementing new tech-based task management system was a bit frustrating for newer employees who were not accustom to using a platform to organize workflow and dive up tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workflow tasks are solved with Asana, they help our team divide up task in a fair and equitable qay.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Asana to those who do not have a current CRM system in order to divide up workflow.

Asana for my

  • October 15, 2019

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a must have for any Marketing team! We have so many little tasks due daily, that is really hard to keep track mentally. With Asana, you're not only able to keep track of these tasks, but you can create projects with your team, and add subtasks for each person. You can even make one task dependent of another. For example: for a lot of the social promotion I do, I need graphics from our Designer. So, I can make the "social promo" task dependent on the Designer's "make graphics" task. Which means, I can't do it, until she is finished. Asana also has a calendar view, which is great to see your projects in a "big picture" and see what's going on that week or that month. You can also keep track of what everyone else is doing. As a boss, you can check if your employee has too much on their plates, or not enough, and you can make sure they're on track.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tasks view can get a little confusing. It's hard to navigate through at times, at least until you're 100% accustomed. Tasks that are supposed to be weekly, sometimes don't appear. It'd be good if you could automatically duplicate them without all the internal comments. For example, we have a podcast every week, but the info we add inside the task changes. I'd be good if the task got duplicated, but with blank slates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were not aware of a lot of the things going on within the team. Everyone was working on their own thing, not realizing a lot of it it's intertwined. Once we figured out we had this problem, we got Asana to keep track of all the projects we have going on at the moment, and the part that each of us play in them. How our own work affects the other, and learning to stay on track with tasks and deadlines.

Intuitive tool

  • October 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
very straightforward and user friendly. Features are intuitive, and new features that they are rolling out are consistently helpful and easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could add tags to subtasks, rather than only being able to do so on parent tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enables clear accountability by person with deadlines, and sort/filter based on tags
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The tool alone is helpful, but it is worth considering pairing it with a broader project management approach, such as agile project management.

ASANA REVIEW

  • October 15, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana was very helpful with assigning tasks for members on my team as well as setting deadlines for completion of those tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not like how the formatting of the tasks was set up. I wish there was more color coordination to differentiate tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to assign tasks directly and set soft deadlines that could be adjusted if need be. I found that it helped me to organize my tasks for my personal to do list as well as assigning tasks for other members o my team. Some need additional organization help at times so it was helpful to have directly on their phones so that they can access the information at home if need be (or on the go). It also allowed for collaboration which was very helpful.
