Asana is one of the best project management tools in the business
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a very intuitive and easy to use project management tool. Creating and managing projects is simple. Collaborating with other employees and departments is amazing easy and is also in real time. Task management and timelines are fantastic tools.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana does have some issues. Some have argued that it is a little too complex. Sometimes the amount of sub tasks available can be confusing. Also if you are not diligent with checking your inbox you could miss some updates. All and all this is really nit picking.

Project management, task follow up and collaboration. I have realized that this tool is incredibly useful when tracking orders and creating a sense of accountability between departments.

Great for Organization and Task Management
What do you like best about the product?
I love that you can list everything out. If you're a very organized and detailed person, it's just one huge checklist and you can write as much as you can and modify it as much as you want. If you are very attentive to detail it can be a lot to set up.
What do you dislike about the product?
I personally don't dislike it, as i said, I really like the checklists and the notifications, you can really modify it and receive updates and notifications. I think it's really good for keeping people organized, and to help them understand steps to becoming organized, strategizing/planning.

It's helping with overall task management. It does a great job at keeping you organized and working on prioritization.

Organize, Track, Manage on Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I like it's calendar feature best and checking items off when finished. It is best for use to plan your days accordingly when working.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not a very collaborative application. It stiffly is for help scheduling and getting approval from boss. We have to travel across a wide variety of platforms to properly collaborate. You can really finalize things here when you need approval and scheduling and tasking yourself but I'd wish for an application that does both the organization and collaborative piece - it feels more like facebook comments rather than using google docs to collaborate and communicate. Possibly them adding in an area where you can work and edit on documents together would work well and make the comment feature a little less chaotic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's great for scheduling. I use the calendar religiously for looking ahead and seeing what tasks have to be done on certain days and making sure we get things done in a timely fashion. Notifications to the team are quick and will ensure me fast responses when issues arise.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is designed for being task oriented. It is not designed for collaboration - so do not use if you want to be able to use it for both an organization and collaboration function.
Fast & Flexible
What do you like best about the product?
The great thing about Asana is that it can be anything you need it to be. Their platform is extremely easy to use and with a limitless amount of customization, you can find a way to make it work for your business.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside of being easy to use is that sometimes it's used a little bit too much. Creating a variety of redundant tasks or tasks that are so granular they lose effectiveness can result in lost productivity. Also, it is easy to create tasks within a project and within other tasks which are not assigned to any users and may become "lost" in the Asana ecosphere.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've used Asana to better streamline our development processes for building websites & custom software, managing support ticket requests & internal project management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
To get the most out of this platform you really need to understand what you're trying to achieve and design a system that works for you. Spend some time beforehand planning out your implementation and it will pay for itself in the long run.
Use of Asana for PM
What do you like best about the product?
Makes it easy to pull the right people in on the right information, including task assignments. Use to use with minimal training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only thing I dislike is that recipients don’t always respond to their invitations, deadlines, etc
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of a complicated project with many dependencies. It’s a place we can all go back to for a mutual understanding of what’s going on and what’s ahead.
Great Task Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
I especially like the ability to create subtasks within a task.
What do you dislike about the product?
Would be helpful to be able to creating a "Waiting" function - i.e. waiting to hear back from John Doe.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am attorney with a case load of 50-65 active files at a given time. This software allows me to stay on top of the files to avoid missing things.
Love ASANA for the follow-up of Projects
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about ASANA is that it can send reminders and alerts of tasks and activities that are pending to be fulfilled in the times or if someone has done some updating in the assigned tasks. There is a queine order that can configure and assign tasks and the rest of the guest team responsible for complying with them. You only configure the tasks and those responsible for them. It also sends alerts and reminders according to the scheduled dates. I really liked how it manages the monitoring of tasks, times and responsible.
What do you dislike about the product?
I see the limitation that does not allow to know its capabilities and functions in the free trial version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Which is an excellent tool to plan, control and monitor the different tasks and objectives of the projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is an application that allows you to control and monitor projects on computers and mobile phones, it is very easy to access and easy to use, it sends you tracking notifications to your email configured when assigning the task and to be invited to the group of collaborators and execution of project activities, since you can record what you do as a guest and what your performance is as a human resource. In the same way you can have several registered projects in case you are a supervisor and internally divide into financial, technological and management activities. I consider it a highly scalable application that can be adapted with other tools such as the google calendar and with contol applications and personnel management, since it is possible to measure what that human resource is executing. I highly recommend them.
