  • December 18, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love being able to choose between the card system and the list system when creating a project.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not like the fact that there was not a notification option for of a due date changed on a task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping projects organized and allowing everyone to be on the same page. The benefits of giving everyone a clear understanding of the current status of a project is priceless.

Eight Years with ASANA

  • December 17, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The best parts of ASANA are the group interaction that we can stimulate with this tool. We have used ASANA for quite a long time to coordinate teams that are spread out all over the US and Asia. This tools allows us to coordinate activities and make sure the tasks assigned are completed in a timely manner.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually, the updates are a little too frequent for me. What some may see as a positive, I dislike as it disrupts flow. While this may be inherent to new tools being developed, as a former software company owner, "feature creep" can be a hinderance at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We manage hundreds of projects across three (3) main business units. ASANA helps us keep our standard "process" for each project front and center. As a management tool, it allow me to manage groups on individual projects and focus on those that need my attention.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start with just a few projects and refine your process first. Then implement on a larger scale

The best control for your work projects.

  • December 09, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like Asana because I can follow my projects interactively, it has very good features to work in collaboration with my team, it allows me to plan tasks with ease, I can also have my calendar with all the activities organized, I can upload files and assign tasks to my colleagues. Working with Asana, I keep my team informed of everything important.
What do you dislike about the product?
For starters, Asana offers you a free version, however, it lacks many features that you can only use if you switch to the Premium version. The cost of this software will also depend on how big your equipment is, however, it is very beneficial to obtain asanas because with this software you can be more productive and take your company to another level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been able to solve many problems with Asana and one of the most important is the communication as we can keep the different departments of the company up to date with the latest activities and tasks to be done, in addition to helping us to maintain order.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before using Asana, it is important that you know what kind of project you are going to develop, since that way you will know if this software will be able to adapt to what you need.

Functional and understandable for even the least advanced tech person

  • December 07, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Organized, easy to manage, includes API so automation is possible, supports all of my team in a free capacity not having to pay by user. I also like that there is color coding capability but wish there were more progress bar options.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish it had task chunks so you can template out timelines. I also wish that it had better budget tracking and version tracking like if it were to integrate with a document management system or something. Something else I don't like is that there's a lot more depth to programs like Jira and with this there requires a fair bit of plugin use and external python automation to have it do what I want it to structurally. All-in-all a great product, just a few nitty gritty preferences.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management x9000, too many moving parts before and now everything is slowly but surely becoming cohesive.We also had a lot of communication issues with other teams and now have eliminated a lot of those with contingency plans based on the different projects we have set up, as well as different methods to disseminate tasks to each team vs before where there was just a maelstrom of emails and questions and concerns from every which way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you like Wrike but don't need all the over-the-top functionality and if you have team members who aren't as advanced technology-wise as others then you should try it out!

The single best task management & collaboration tool

  • December 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a roughly 6-person company with team members spread across the globe, we live and breathe Asana. Ever aspect of our executive coaching business runs on Asana, from low-level day-to-day tasks to high-level aspirational growth goals from the company. Asana makes it incredibly easy to establish repeating workflows and build systems for nearly every aspect of your business.
What do you dislike about the product?
As powerful as Asana's collaboration features are, they can infringe a little bit on privacy if you're not careful. You need to be very careful when creating and tracking a task you don't want others to see or have access to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every aspect of our organization runs through Asana. We solve daily task management through Asana, 1:1 meeting agendas, high-level growth goals for the organization, and both long and short-term project planning.

Best Software I have used to keep up & updated with Tasks.

  • December 03, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the way I can communicate with my colleagues and specially they get to see I was able to complete that task and if by any chance I get to end my shift with out completing that Task, they'll be able to continue that Tasks to make sure it gets completed.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment this software is perfect at least to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I get to complete most of my tasks once I get assigned to them. I can just completed and if I need more time i'll just need to contact who ever I have to and change the due date to buy more time and get back to it when ever. I love it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is an a most software to have. It'll help everyone in the company to keep up with any tasks does not mater how difficult it can be, becs every one will be updated by just clicking in the task of the day.

Fast, Reliable, and Convenient!

  • December 03, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Very user friendly and easy to learn. I like that you can sync it with other applications to multi-task. For example you can sync with Slack and use command from Slack messaging application to automatically created task inside Asana for you. I like that you can structure different task group and share with individuals who need to take action on those tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I have been using Asana for about a year, and I have not come across something a currently dislike about the application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to manage workflow and projects with our partner we work very closely with.

Awesome Project Management Tool!!

  • November 29, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
How easy it is to stay organized on a project, and how easy it is to assign "to-dos"
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing about Asana that I would change! Its incredibly user friendly, and useful!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is making project management very easy for us. We use Asana to stay on top of "tasks", and to make sure we stay organized with certain projects. Asana makes it very clear when deadlines are, and allows for communication between team members for status updates and comments
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I definitely recommend Asana to anyone looking for a project management tool. This has helped our department stay organized, and has made sure that no tasks fall through the cracks

Friendly and basic

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Basic task-assigning site that is very comprehensive and easy to use. Good for a small number of employees, I don't know about a bigger company. All users can assign tasks/subtasks to other users and marking off tasks is easy; the animations are cute and fun.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing really - it can look a little cluttered but it's pretty easy to sort and prioritize stuff
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Assigning and keeping track of tasks needing to get done
Recommendations to others considering the product:
great for organization and inter-company task assignments

Robust and growing platform for planning and managing project

  • November 28, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The interface truly is one of the best parts of the app. The nudges and UX is just fun and memorable. The app offers a wide variety of features and doesn't cost as much as some other tools. The Timeline feature is great for planning larger projects, and the possibility of a proofing and approval functionality is exciting.
What do you dislike about the product?
If there's one thing I really don't like about the tool, it's the fact there's no way to switch a project back and forth between board view (Kanban) and list view.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this tool to plan, run, and analyze our projects. This includes websites, videos, branding projects and more. It's helped reduce the spinup time for projects by allowing us to create and use project templates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I'd highly recommend giving Asana a test drive to see if it fits your needs. It's a really robust app and very affordable.
