Asana fits the bill
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Asana is that it's easy to manage my home and work life in one app. With easy mobile or web apps, I'm able to note the task for whatever comes up regardless of where I am.
What do you dislike about the product?
Although you can add tags to the favorites, I wish tag management was easier. Using GTD method, tags are essential. Also wish it would integrate with Harvest. Still need to use another task management system that does to manage tasks that require time tracking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Because Asana has a good free option, I'm able to set up new teams for each client.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
With a little time and effort you will be able to set up Asana in a manner that works with your company's work flow. It might take a few tries but by trial and error as well as looking up what others are doing on YouTube, you can find a solution that works.
Wonderful software - Time consuming set up
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a wonderful CRM and project management system. I currently use Asana to manage clients everyday tasks as well as one time projects. One of the features I love is that I can customize the software as I need it and I don't have to upgrade to do so.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a huge learning curve when setting up Asana. I had to not only watch video tutorials but I had to contact support many times during the customization.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am using Asana for project management and day to day client operations. One benefit is the use of the software with no cost associated.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are considering Asana, watch videos and tutorials before trying to set it up. The videos and tutorials will save you a lot of time.
Share with the entire team
What do you like best about the product?
Asana lets us assign and share project tasks and set them up by group or type. It is easy to access and you can quickly update your task and it is shared with everyone on the team. We are able to keep track of tasks in a project and assign timelines for completion.
What do you dislike about the product?
If you are on multiple teams, your homepage can be a little overwhelming to sort out. Once you are in the right group you are good to go.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were trying to use an older program that wasn't really designed for project tasking and it was not working well. We chose Asana because of the ease of use and the tools it provides. This has improved our communication internally and has reduced the time it takes use to move toward completing projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tools for collaboration
Asana -- very good, one missing feature I would like
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great, good mobile app, lost of features, tags, etc. Very powerful, sometimes it feels like I discover new things all of the time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish they would go over their product updates in more depth, and they really need to allow me to filter the calendar by tags so i can have specific views.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to manage all of the tasks within the teams. Accountability and keeping track of everything.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great product.
Easy to use with Slack
What do you like best about the product?
We use the integration for Slack to manage our team’s work. It keep our work and conversations straight when we are switching between Asana and Slack. Moreover, I get personal notifications for work I'm assigned and following right in Slack to quickly see what’s happening.
What do you dislike about the product?
It isn't very easy to learn to use. In addition it is a little bit expensive
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We manage our team's work and we have more control with our tasks in every project
Recommendations to others considering the product:
go for it
Great tool to keep your team on track
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great collaborative tool to log project deliverables and keep you and your co-workers on track towards accomplishing your goals. I love Asana's UI which allows you to visualize when tasks are due in relation to the great project, making a large goal seem much more manageable.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing really on the features side of things. I wish the cost was a bit lower, but even with what we pay it's worth the cost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team works across multiple time zones and Asana allows us to assign, log, update and collaborate on deliverables that are needed for a larger, company-wide project.
Great project management app
What do you like best about the product?
Cna integrate with so many different apps. Great for work flow and assigning tasks and keeping up with productivity and operations.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think a bit more customization would be cool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Operations. We have been able to complete projects faster.
A robust project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Asana provides countless options for project management—with plenty of customization to ensure that every detail of a project can be managed, tracked, and accomplished.
What do you dislike about the product?
With such robust offerings, Asana is not the most simple to use. It takes some time to get a hang of it, and even then, it isn't overly simple or fun to use. It gets the job done with lots of features, but isn't overly engaging to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana made it easy to communicate with a large distributed team and keep everyone on the same page.
Asana, great when everyone is on board
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has great functionality. It's awesome for managing a wide variety of projects across and between different teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
The integration with email and calendar on Outlook can be clunky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used Asana to get a diverse team of people situated in different buildings on the same page. It allowed greater oversight and tracking of diverse projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You need to fully onboard everyone in your organization. This product works best when every user really understands it. It fell off for teams that weren't sufficiently trained.
Great for cross-team collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
We use Asana for driving transparency across several teams, departments and even companies! It allows everyone to log in and see the same things, add comments and upload documentation, and is easily edited and managed. We love it!
What do you dislike about the product?
We still have to use other things like Jira tickets for internal requests or HubSpot for uploading recorded videos and as a general landing page for each of our clients.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving for one place for all the documents and plans to live so that everyone on our team as well as each of our individual clients are all on track and bought into the same game plan.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great and easy to use product for even the most novice users! We like that it's easy to use, clean and quick. We still use other platforms for various reasons but Asana makes project management, transparency and collaboration so easy!
