I like the ability to assign tasks to different team members.

I dislike that I can't see my completed tasks that easily.

I am able to make sure team members are all staying on top of their deadlines to get different project parts done, so that the projects as a whole can be executed efficiently.

Manage and manage your business activities

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is an online platform, with which I can manage my activities and projects as a team, has a very good user interface and easy to use, you can also buy add-ons and integrate them to get more features, something I like about Asana is that Notifies me by mail when there is a change of status in an activity or when something is about to expire.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some functions can be difficult to manage and sometimes it can be slow at the first start of the section, in addition the free version is very limited and does not have everything necessary to work comfortably.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a software that has facilitated my work in the office, since it allows me to assign tasks and activities to my colleagues, I can also keep control and constantly check the progress of the activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Asana because it is very practical, it is ideal for small teams since its cost can be high if you have many people in the team.

Great Tool for Multi-taskers

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like being able to have all my tasks for any given project laid out for me in list and calendar views, with deadlines and all. You can also clearly see which project each task is assigned to, when the deadline is, and anyone that is working on or waiting on completion of the task.
What do you dislike about the product?
One downside I've encountered is only being allowed to assign one team member to a task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A lot of our team works remotely and we've been able to assign each other tasks quickly and efficiently.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Definitely sit down with the entire team to walk through Asana when implementing. There are a lot of features and everyone should be on the same page with how to use them.

Best PM tool I've used yet

  • April 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana's welcoming aesthetic and incredibly organized approach to board-based task management makes PM work a breeze. Templates created for whatever the project is really helps me to think about what to expect.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how very low the threshold is to require a paid plan - I always hope a tool this useful will be closer to free than it is in its current.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Dividing up a WBS has never been easier than it is with Asana, and it integrates amazingly well with Slack.

Asana is great software for organizing & managing your work flow

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has multiple features that I really like, including the projects tab, due dates, and conversations. This task manager makes identifying goals simple and keeping a team on track even easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't a whole lot that I don't like about Asana but I have noticed when nesting a task within another task, Asana might start lagging to create that subtask. This happens more frequently when the original task is more than 2 years old
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped me keep my work flow clean while also holding myself accountable with clear deadlines. The communication between my manager and the others on my team is crucial for us being successful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it.

Easy to Use

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that the interface is easy to use and pretty simple
Its also a really nice looking interface, its not an eye sore, there are no pop ups. etc. I usually use it on a desktop but im sure the app is good too... i should get it!
What do you dislike about the product?
Well i wish i could connect my Gcal to it, i just feel like the calendar aspect is lacking for someone who is constantly trying to manage programs. I use Google apps and Asana, and it would be great if the two would work together better. Like, if the asana and google calendar could syn and if i deleted something on one, it would delete on the other. And the same for adding. Sometimes busy bees like me like multiple apps to help their brains keep things organized, and it just sucks that its not easier to use in that regard. But, i still think Asana is the best of the to-do list apps out there.'

It would alos be great to be able to literally download the tasks ive already finished. Sometimes when u work forin a contracted position, they want to know what you completed. this way i could literally show them everything + my thought process and level of organization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I manage a medical program for uc berkeley and i run a business, so i use them for both. I think its beneficial especially for those weeks where i have so much going on that I feel like i cant event comprehend the amount of work. Asana helps my brain relax becausei just work on each task one by one, and boom, it disappeares!

Recommend Asana as team management tool

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is easy and intuitive to use, with color coding and individual assignments easily created. The design is simple and not confusing. It facilitates group work and makes monitoring of tasks easy. We also integrated Asana into our email calendars, which provided an additional tool for better management. The notifications in particular proved very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was only using the basic version. It took my team a while to adapt to it, which was unfortunate. When the projects got more complex, I had sometimes trouble finding the info I needed using the search function.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly team organisation and task management. This was particularly useful when working towards a deadline and when broader things to do are broken down into little tasks with tight deadlines. I could assign my team broader and smaller tasks, and they could see who to coordinate with.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A great tool, definitely consider using it!
