Cool way to track your workload

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the way that anyone can assign work to you and you can pick who can view it. Getting assigned work with a due date eliminates the pressure of completing it in a rush because you didn't know it was needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the way that you cannot submit pdf or photos and you can just comment. If that ability was added asana could be used for more. If there were more things we could do instead of just commenting, everything about asana would be perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems
- Everyone doing the same task
- Everyone not completing tasks on time
Benefits
- Getting work done
- Everythings more organized now

Asana is super powerful but difficult for some employees to fully utilize

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how powerful Asana is. Our company uses it for tasks and project management but also for other processes like onboarding, learning and development, and CRM-type tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana isn't the most user-friendly software especially if you layer multiple processes onto it. A recent employee survey surfaced Asana usage as a dissatisfier for many employees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps coordinate tasks in many different departments and gives visibility to projects and recurring tasks. In some instances, it replaces buying a bunch of additional licenses for other software. Manager have increased visibility, and we have actionable data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try before you buy

Asana Keeps Me Organized and Effective

  • March 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
One of my favorite things about Asana is that I can sort things by task due date in a list or view them on a calendar. That makes sure that I am able to see different kinds of tasks in the way that makes the most sense to me. You can also see how much your teammates have on their plate for the day or week before asking them to do something or assigning it to them. It helps make sure that we are all informed and getting things done in time for deadlines.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a lot of notifications that you get automatically but you are able to turn them off and customize which ones you get so it's fine. It took me a while to figure out that you are able to customize which alerts you get so at first, my inbox was flooded with Asana notifications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana lets the team assign themselves and each other tasks in a very organized way. Instead of trying to remember things or write them down or get assignments in an email, all of our To Do's are right there in the same system. It has meant that I never forget to do something because it's right there in front of me with the details and the due date. I can also sort my tasks by due date and see what my week's workload looks like which is a huge help.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely recommend Asana. It has really helped our team to get and stay organized.

What do you like best about the product?
New customization that allows you to add special columns and update the point in the process.

Too many notifications and can feel cluttered quickly. When you delete tasks, it often removes formatting or changes order in ways that can be a bit annoying.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making sure their is a clear project management direction and that staff aren't doing the same work.

What do you like best about the product?
I can organize my activities and tasks on cards, in which I can add dates, files and documents, its interface is simple and it is easy to adapt, I like it because I can take control of the project and assign tasks to the members of my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks more features, such as diagrams and the ability to edit images, I think it is a somewhat expensive tool and is not ideal for small businesses.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With asana I save work and money since I can focus on what I really need, it is also very good to work with my colleagues.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before hiring Asana, you should know if it meets what you need, although I'm sure it can adapt to any environment.
