Great project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of managing projects with clients
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like it to be easier on the app for it to switch between different collaborative projects and to be able to accept invitations via the app too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is really using for project managing and assigning tasks to different people. It keeps things organised and everyone is certain what has been achieved and where we’re up to.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It’s a great project management tool primarily focused on to do lists
Really sleek interface and easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
It's really easy to use. it is also very intuitive. Great for multiple users and multiple teams. Their customer service is also really great!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike. I wish it would integrate more easily into other software but it's really dope all around, no complaints!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management. Tasks. Just organizing teams. It does it all!
Streamlined Task Management
What do you like best about the product?
Calendar View for tasks across projects!
What do you dislike about the product?
That if I’m the only one on my team, i have to assign all my tasks to myself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to view a calendar of all of my tasks for all of my clients in once place, while also being able to create separate projects for each of my clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you’re a trello user, recreate your boards as projects and then view all tasks under Calendar view.
Streamlines your day-to-day so you can focus on the big picture.
What do you like best about the product?
There are so many parts of Asana that I love, but the biggest benefit is the ability to add design files for various tasks along with the ability to create repetitive tasks. Both of these features allow my team to focus on getting tasks done while collaborating with team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd say that it'd be great to have an end date for repetitive tasks. I also don't like how tasks that have a start and end date show in the task list view. For members that don't use the calendar view do not see these tasks until they're due.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to manage all of our marketing efforts. From content calendars, to on-going maintenance tasks, to special campaigns, we're able to track these easily.
project management tool that is the best on the market
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the best tool on the market in my opinion. I dont want to use anything else. It helped our organization to work more effectively in structuring tasks and work and on this note we can also help other people to identify what they need to work on
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont like that it is only in the brand that they gave it. I much more like it to add my own colors and logos etcetera
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Get work visualized and structure it with other collegeaus
Recommendations to others considering the product:
best tool available
The Go-To Task Management App
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity and flexibility of usage. The UI is clean and easy to navigate
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough customization options (dark mode, moving sidebars, hiding sidebars, text & row size)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem is prioritizing tasks as well as recording/capturing them to avoid forgetting. It is helpful, in staying organized as well for different projects and showing progress to others. It makes delegation and collaboration on projects easier and clear for project members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
watch the getting started videos and the blogs to learn how to use it properly and well. There are also user case studies that show how some power users utilize the app.
Very helpful
What do you like best about the product?
The way you can organize your tasks by priority and add the status to it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing at the moment, I am satisfied with the service
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I stay on top of my tasks and my teammates tasks.
Project Management to Keep Us All Aligned
What do you like best about the product?
Asana provides a very easy to use web interface with mobile application support as well. It is an intuitive drag and drop interface that allows for a lot of room to get things done once you explore how it links into other applications. The gantt chart visualizations really help to understand how we are doing on tasks in relations to timelines as well as overall project progress. Asana helps foster better resource allocation as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve can be a bit steep for those who are not technologically savvy (or patient). In addition to individual learning curves, it can be confusing to some to bounce around between different workspaces (I have four myself). It would be wonderful to be able to have a macro look at all projects you are on regardless of workspace location in order to get a more precise and quicker overview of what is happening.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to manage tasks across a large team for complex research and evaluations. We are able to easily coordinate tasks across units and time constraints allowing the entire team to stay on the same page. Additionally, by assigning tasks which in turn show up on the assignee's calendar, we ensure that we hit our deadlines and produce high caliber products.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's critical to understand your organization's needs before selecting project management software. What problem(s) are you trying to solve, what information do you need tracked, and what reporting do you need are great places to start. When it comes to Asana, I highly recommend starting with a free account and really working through it (don't forget to check out the help features) to see if it is the solution you truly need.
Asana is great!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the best task management tool I have tried. It has so many features that I'm actually still learning new things about it all the time - which could be a pro or a con. I love being able to build out a project and assign subtasks to myself and others so that we can all be on the same page with less communication. I love being able to attach inspiration images or mockups so you don't have to dig through your files during a meeting. One of my very favorite features, though, is seeing a unicorn or narwhale shoot across my screen when I check off a task. It's so cute and positive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Currently, I use the free version of Asana and I feel like there are a lot of great tools they do NOT provide in the free version however they often email me about those tools and features. I do wish, of course, that I could use the paid version but it's too expensive for our company right now. I believe it's pay per user, so that adds up pretty quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Setting due dates and recurring tasks are VERY helpful for not letting small things slip through the cracks. Prior to Asana, I used Wunderlist, and Asana is just a huge step up in terms of all the customization and automation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just give the free version a shot! I think it can seem overwhelming at first, especially if you're transferring tasks over from another platform, but that is probably the best way to learn and to try out different ways of setting it up. I like to organize my tasks utilizing the "my tasks" area under "Today" and "This week" under "TODAY" and "Upcoming" and "Waiting" under "UPCOMING". Then, everything else goes under "LATER" sorted into different projects. It's helpful for me to be able to prioritize by "Today" separately from everything else! Look up tips from others though, and you'll find a way to organize your list that best suits you.
Love Asana!
What do you like best about the product?
I love Asana for keeping me on track with my projects as well as working cross functionally on projects. In my role I have to work with tons of others across marketing and other functions and being able to keep multiple projects going at once and stay on track is important.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing I really dislike at the moment, but I do wish it was easier to follow the flow of things being needed at times across teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving not having to work off google docs for my projects and requests and everyone can see where we stand.
