Great Product to Keep Your Team Organized
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the interface and the way it allows you to assign tasks to your team members. It's extremely organized and has helped me, not only keep myself on task and organized, but has given me a way to track my teams accomplishments without making them feel micro managed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the amount of emails the system sends out. Each time you assign a task an individual email with that task is sent out to those assigned. I wish there was a way to group the tasks, so the person being assigned receives one email with all of the tasks grouped together.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were running into issues with my team not knowing what had been accomplished, what needed to be accomplished and what to do next during the work day. Asana has helped organize everyone's work day and it's not only reduced the need for multiple team conference calls each day, but people are happier because they now know what's expected of them each day and it's eliminated team members mistakenly working on the same tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want your team to stay on task, be able to report to your supervisor your teams performance accurately and show the efficiency of your team, then I would definitely recommend Asana.

I love Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to get started on Asana. The user interface is really clean and reliable, and collaboration is easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that Asana creates two tasks for a task, if multiple people are assigned to a task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using it to project manage ourselves in building a project.
Asana was great for personal tracking!
What do you like best about the product?
Great way to update my to-do list. It had a great way of tracking the tasks I wanted quickly and easily with good app support too.
What do you dislike about the product?
I couldn't seem to get others to use it too...low adoption from the team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tasks vs emails -- I was trying to get away from using emails for everything but old habits die hard. The email system is still the best way to address most things unfortunately. Team adoption at the very beginning of a project is likely when this will work best and not after the fact. Project teams will benefit from sharing tasks and taking over tasks easily when required. The issues I had were getting my team to send tasks to the Asana tasks vs emails almost consistently...again, better management and some kind of point system might help people to adopt this better. An incentive perhaps in using the tool, like a give away for the team members that adopt the most features and use the tool the most might help.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Team adoption will be tough but worth it if you can get them there.
Loved It
What do you like best about the product?
Asana isn't a full-fledged Kanban sort of management tool, but it worked wonderfully for the biomedical company I was involved with last year. We were able to manage a number of projects and a large number of employees all at once while keeping the right amount of transparency -- or lack thereof.
What do you dislike about the product?
There was nothing I particularly disliked about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Primarily we saw an uptick in coordination and it made the job of managing multiple projects and subprojects at once significantly easier.
Effective project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love the deadline feature and the ability to add images to tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish tasks weren't archived to a different location once marked as complete and that you had the ability to hyperlink within tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is great for project management and staying on top of deadlines. Love the reminders it sends to assignees to complete tasks, as well as to assigners when tasks have been updated/completed.
Excellent tool for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use platform. File transfer and live time updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike. Would be easier to use if it was an application and not a web based platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration with individuals in many locations across the country. Allows for easy access to ideas and sharing of products.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Test and use compared to other products. Believe this is easier to use than the free items provided by Google.
A good task/project management software, but needs some UI updates
What do you like best about the product?
I like how you can have multiple Projects, Tasks, Subtasks, and depth with different responsibility at the granular task level.
What do you dislike about the product?
Viewing conversations and details at anything beyond the first sub-task level is too difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Manage multiple projects and keep all parties up to date with information on the projects. We are able to hold employees accountable for all tasks.
Great for team and project management
What do you like best about the product?
We use Asana to keep track of our team's work, projects, and deliverables. We also are able to link other people in different departments and organizations to our Asana account so they can function like internal members of the team and make and view updates to the project boards. It is easy to navigate, create new projects, upload documents, see what team members are working on or have completed, and get high level and detailed views of projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free service does not allow you to create deadline-dependent tasks or create gantt charts. It is difficult to remove access to tasks and projects by project managers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to work with people across departments in our large organization as well as with people outside our organization. It allows for seamless communication and visualization of work.
Great for workflow.
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to track and maintain to do lists and categorize them by product.
What do you dislike about the product?
The filters can be glitchy and the tracking on dates completed doesn't always work well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Many projects all with different tasks to keep straight.
