Asana Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like the easy user experience of the application
What do you dislike about the product?
I disliked the fact that you were able to continuously push agenda items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The only problems that I'm having with Asana is that the desktop version tends to log you out when you are idle for too long.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure to hold yourself accountable to your deadline as it easy to manipulate and push your set deadlines.
Organization at it's finest.
What do you like best about the product?
I like most about Asana is that I can organize WITH people on my team. There are plenty of platforms for your own personal organization and task makers but few do it well at a whole team basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not anything I really dislike about Asana. They keep updating and each update is truly improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying on task as a team and it solve accountability issues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend it just to stay on task and to have all your tasks in ONE AREA!!!!
Keeps our small business organized!
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to assign tasks to specific team members, track progress, and add comments
What do you dislike about the product?
There should be more features for the Premium version, such as proofing. The amount of email they send you is also overbearing. Make sure you customize your email preferences otherwise you get bombarded!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to create and track progress on different projects. The best part is that we can communicate via the portal to update each other and shift timelines if needed.
Fan of Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I find Asana to be the best tool for project management, as it encourages attaching a date to every task & assigning clear responsibility. :). I like that you can use the Kanban board but there is a strong primary view , that’s list oriented. I like the free layer for personal/small team use. I like the options for sub tasks/tasks/sections/projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the groups vs projects inviting is confusing. The way sub tasks behave differently from tasks (including in reminders, daily schedule, when you @ someone - as I recall) can be confusing. I wish you could drag/drop the order of tasks within a section , & I wish you could drag/drop the order of tasks due the same day within the view by date. I wish you could schedule not just a start/end tune, but as a different way of organizing, an “estimated time” to complete (and have it sum for the day), so that if for o e day, I have 2 projects estimated 4 hours each and 12 at 30 minutes each, I see what that would add up to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping remote teams in synch. Providing a system for team members to take responsibility for planning their own schedule based on their goals, with managers able to check. Preventing things from falling between the cracks. Allowing colleagues to check on progress in an asynchronous way, without disturbing the others.
An excellent tool for project management!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes it a delightful experience to work with. It's easy to create new projects and tasks. It also supports a very flexible and robust mobile app which has full features of the app. It unifies all my ideas, project deadlines, thoughts, notes and etc. I love the advanced search feature the most. Considering the fact that it tracks absolutely everything, it's hard to get overwhelmed with too much information, so a search which has all the necessary filters comes in very handy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd like to have an option to switch on/off Kanban board. You can only choose it during the creation of the project. Repeating tasks is also a hassle to set up and I've had problem with it. Also completed tasks don't disappear from inbox automatically.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is helping everyone in my company to stay organized. It's easy to set up and start working with it and once you do, you can't go back. It has an awesome interface and when you finish a day and all the daily tasks - it's a very satisfying feeling. The workflow is super intuitive. The flow matches that of my thought process and it works really fast. I've even started using it with two seperate accounts to help with my personal life as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I know this sounds cliche but Asana definitely changed my life. It has made it enjoyable to manage projects and has greatly enhanced my workflow. Try it out and see it for yourself!
Great project management platform !
What do you like best about the product?
The layout and induced workflow of Asana works best for our team
What do you dislike about the product?
Clicking on tasks to open the details often triggers its title modification
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing projects is now way easier than before, and as a growing team, it was more than necessary to be able to delegate tasks as well as being able to interact with their owners within the platform through comments. Also, being able to have parent task owners and different sub task owners is a great feature
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to read the documentation or tutorials to implement it to your workflow as good as possible. It is easy to get carried out by its workflow and use it uneffectively
Asana
What do you like best about the product?
Team collaboration tool; able to manage workflow; flexible, fast, and modern design; free version available.
What do you dislike about the product?
Do not dislike any specific aspect of it. Not ideal for graphics-intensive work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
collaboration tool that helps teams manage all kinds of tasks, including on-boarding.
Asana is AWESOME! I love how organized it is!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how organized Asana is! It keeps me on track and helps me stay organized! I also love the color coding and easily ability to share tasks and comments. I also love that you can add subtasks when needed for different tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really can't think of anything I dislike. The ease of using Asana, along with the organization is perfect! Maybe an option to 'hide' some tasks that are far out in the future, so that scrolling down 'my tasks' list isn't so long and overwhelming?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing projects and tasks. I use Asana daily for both work and personal tasks. It helps me keep track of my daily work responsibilities, with due dates and the ability to look ahead. I love how it frees up my mind space to focus only on the tasks I need to complete 'today' or 'this week', so I'm not worrying about tasks that are coming up in the future.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It makes checking off all of those pesky tasks fun! A lot of our clients struggle with getting and staying organized. I love how easy it is to schedule tasks and share them with our team. Being able to separate different projects and work areas really helps us to be able to keep everything organized and on-time withthing the business.
Asana for Task Management
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana daily and I love the celebrations and how simple it is to complete tasks and keep track of everything in one place. You can organize everything into various teams, etc, which I find beneficial as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't love the layout/format. I find it can be overwhelming and look messy, but I do like the celebration graphics.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting tasks organized and complete between teams.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend not getting too involved with it because then it looks messy.
Complete project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is very easy to manage and allowed us to better manage our projects and mainly the tasks of each collaborator. Project templates are very useful to start a project quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
being able to group projects by client would be more useful in our case than we use it in a marketing agency. This way we would have divisions between clients. that functionality we would like it to be added
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the impact of asana on our agency has been in time and in task management. Now we know what tasks they have coming soon, and what tasks each collaborator is doing. Previously we had to do together to know each one of the tasks that each one has
