Full of features, can be overwhelming at times
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has just about everything you could ever want in a project management tool. As an agency, and someone who is involved in multiple businesses, I love that you can have different organizations so you can separate different teams, clients, and projects without anyone knowing about each other. It's become my first tool of choice for all project management and even personal task list.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could get a premium account for just myself, but the lowest tier they offer is 5 users. Since I am a freelancer/agency of just one person, that is cost-prohibitive for me. Also it would be nice to have a better way to categorize tasks, and better integration with Google Calendar since you can only set the day but not the time in the calendar, so if I have something I'm supposed to work on at 2pm on Tuesday, Asana makes it an all-day event on Tuesday rather than scheduling it into an appropriate time slot. Overall it could be a little easier to use and there is a bit of a learning curve but it's not too bad once you get used to it.
