Great for project management
What do you like best about the product?
This is great for project management or to track large projects. The ability to rope other team members in and to assign different roles is so helpful. We enjoyed this over other programs because of ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be a bit difficult to setup when you're first getting started but one you have it layer out how you want it, it works like a dream.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
By using this we're solving the issue of not knowing where people are on various tasks on a project or when certain people pick up their task. This allows it to all be laid out. This helps with collaborative efforts.
Great Task Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
Their basic free plan is a great starting point for small companies just getting on their feet. It offers a lot of stuff for free.
What do you dislike about the product?
It didn't seem very easy to deal with repeatable tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We used Asana to help our team delegate assignments to other employees and to keep ourselves organized.
Productivity and Project Management for the remote team
What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes it very easy for a user to quickly see all of their tasks assigned for the day, week, month, etc. It allows you to segment your tasks into individual projects, keeping you accountable. The boards are a valuable function if you're working with others or other teams on projects. It's a great way to keep people updated on your work.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are ways to create multiple tasks or threaded tasks if someone can't complete one task without another task completed first. This is a wonderful feature, but it's not very intuitive or user-friendly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana keeps remote teams connected. We can easily communicate what projects are needed, when deadlines are, and share resources and updates on all of our work projects and collaborations.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I think Asana is a valuable tool for any business managing projects across teams. However, I think it's a necessary tool if your team is remote.
Asana is some what cumbersome
What do you like best about the product?
DIfferent ways to classify projects that can connect to other projects streams.
What do you dislike about the product?
Since you can organize projects by separate streams the dashboard can get cumbersome and things can get lost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multiple cross-referencing project management streams.
Delegation and collaboration for your team in one place
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can assign tasks to other members of the team and track overall progress of workflow and it has a very clean interface . It also helps you keep track of your own work related tasks in one place which increases focus and helps you meet those deadlines. You don't have to worry about forgetting something if you get into the habit of entering tasks here and setting due dates.
What do you dislike about the product?
I almost didn't know where to start. It's a simple interface but I wish there were suggestions for how to get the most out of it. I also wish there was a way to set reminders for the tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping keep our small team organized and focused on what each person is good at. We can easily delegate, collaborate, and manage overall productivity to ensure maximum output.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you do a walkthrough with your team and set a clear process for how you want to use the task management system so it is used consistently. It won't work well if everyone isn't actively participating.
Good but still in its infancy
What do you like best about the product?
SaaS platform, Easy to use/simplified UI, Animations, Cost effective, Regular updates, Boards, Documentation and support.
What do you dislike about the product?
Needs more work on simple usability features, too simplistic, Better visuals
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of projects and delegating work, documenting, writing user stories.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Good lightweight management tool
Good Project Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
I like the integration capabilities, which help create a customized experience in a way that leads to personal productivity. I think Asana is also great for tracking personal tasks and smaller team projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
The recurring task configuration doesn't seem as effective as it could be. Right now, only the first recurrent task shows up. The next task won't show up until that first task is complete. It would be awesome if there were a way to display multiple recurrent tasks at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps our team stay on track when it comes to project management. From an individual standpoint, it's a great tool to keep myself organized and on track.
Asana review
What do you like best about the product?
Good for organising a team project and assigning tasks to members
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not the best software visually. I would prefer another similar program that is more aesthetically pleasing
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Makes project organization much easier and improves productivity, efficiency and communication
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Would recommend it for short form projects rather than long term projects. There may be better programs to help with organization of longer term projects with many shared files.
Great idea, but learning curve
What do you like best about the product?
There are a lot of ways to stay organized and work with unique workflows, love the different calendar views and assigning capabilities
What do you dislike about the product?
There are almost too many features, it took a while for our team to get the hang of it and whenever we introduced someone else to the platform it seem to mess up our flow. Again lots of great potential, just requires time to adjust and figure out how it will be used
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We found it most beneficial for assigning tasks and keeping track of those projects with the submission forms. However a lot of our projects are managed on other platforms so having to go back-and-forth was not ideal and if we hosted everything on Asana I think it would be great
App looks great for collaboration- but I'm a small group of one & the learning curve is too steep.
What do you like best about the product?
Asana offers lots of integrations with other apps.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is too steep. I need something I can get up and running fast.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I tried using Asana, but it did not work for my purposes.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be prepared to need time to take a deep dive into learning this app. Also, I was not impressed with the company's support- especially because the app is not cheap.
