Being able to organize and view repositories.
What do you dislike about the product?
When there are too many items in a repository, it becomes visually overwhelming due to the format of the website.

With Asana, we are able to provide shared repositories that all employees are able to view.

It's one of the most convenient ways to manage ideas, tasks and projects simultaneously, I strongly recommend using it!

A great tool for organizing projects

  • July 26, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana allows me to assign tasks to my team and the Simple UI offered by the app helps me stay on top of it. With an effective way to prioritize the tasks listed, Asana helps me in havin a 50000 ft level view of my tasks along with letting me keeping an eye on intricacies of those tasks as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to keep track of sub-tasks within the tasks created. Also, if I delete a task(s) accidentally, it's hard to retain the deleted tasks. It took me quite some time to recover the tasks....gave me quite a scare!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped me manage daily tasks with my team. I handle multiple projects within my organization with multiple team members. Asana helps me by providing a summary of the tasks that I've assigned to my team members and lets me get a quick view on their statuses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana easily fits into your day in managing tasks with your team members who're working in an Agile environment. It helps in managing user stories and provides a well sorted view with respect to project or status of the task

Keeps me and my team organized

  • July 24, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is so easy to use and it's a breeze to create tasks, assign tasks, reorganize tasks,etc
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how you can't choose which buttons are the most easily accessible (ie: I never need the link button, but always use the tags button, which is in a different menu)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Some of my coworkers are really disorganized and would try to just remember things they needed to get done, which never worked well. Now that we use Asana though, we have been able to keep everyone on track and organized! This has been a HUGE help to the organization of the company as a whole.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend Asana for anyone in the market. I have even created an additional account with my personal email address that I use for getting tasks done around the house. Asana really helps with everyday life, inside and outside the office!

Project management made easy.

  • July 23, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like most is the design of the application, practically without having used it you never know what you have to do to create a project and follow it up. In addition, the interaction between users is great to be able to work together on the same project in a very interactive way.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I don't like, this program has pleasantly surprised me and now our company works better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Thanks to Asana the organization of projects in our company begins to work properly, with the management of tasks in the projects and the possibility of adding involved and commenting on updates in the same project, there is no longer a forgotten or delayed task.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend using it because it is totally free, it has payment options that are very interesting, which I would recommend you buy.

Asana is the best Company and project managment tool

  • July 13, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great to organize a comapny and its projects. Great use of Multiable organizations and projects within them. Task tracking is great with comments and task statuses. Ability to switch a project into a board instead of a list is also a massive plus. The intergration with outside tools like git and slack is also a very big plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be over complecated and very daunting to new users. If you start a Asana organization from scratch you wont have this problem. But if you are introduced to a slack that has been used for years its can take alot of time to get used to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is there to solve core issues of our company. We use it for clients ptojects to scope out the work and assign tasks. We also use it to keep track of company polices and accounting. Basically it can store and record every thing you need to do in a company and can be used by every single employee.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
No mater what size company you are then Asana is definatly worth it. Finding a tool that keep track of every inch of you business for projects to polices to recruitment is no easy task. But Asana does that perfectly and I higly recommend it. You do not need the paid version unless you want to have massive teams but in general they allow 15 users per team so its quite big.

Ease of Use, getting things done

  • July 12, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity of the software. It is easy to navigate through and the search function is spectacular. The notification system is something that really helped Users get tasks finished at the end of the day. The User interface is obviously designed with the consumer in mind. I am able to easily collaborate with every member on my team : Enigneers, CEO, Sales, Marketing, HR, and etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike how we cant change the font size sometimes. It is frustrating because sometimes we need to emphasize something or sometimes we need to go out of or way to bring attention to another thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are more efficiently hitting and solving our business objectives. Day by day tasks are more clear and overall it seems likes employees are satisfied in terms with their OKR's. The benefits all and all come down to a injection of productivity.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Asana to everybody.

Project Management System for Your Whole Team!

  • July 07, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Each project is listed, with each task that is needed. We are able to set up templates and copy those for projects that have like tasks, but yet, we can add in new tasks or adjust or change after we copy the template. Overall Asana provides us with a lot of options for all the project we work on for all our clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
At this time, I really don't have anything I don't like. We've been using it company wide for over a month and it has helped us to stay more on top of our projects, but seeing our "My Tasks" tab which also provides you with a way to organize and categorize the tasks that is listed specifically for you.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Complete tasks on time. Assign tasks to team members to ensure that a step or task is not missed during our project scope for what we've agreed to complete for clients. We also use Asana with our clients, and to date, it's working nicely to give them the inner view of how the project is proceeding, which we update them each week with a weekly report, but they can check Asana whenever they'd like as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a Project Management system that will allow you to provide your team with the best of both worlds - giving them their tasks and have everything in one system for task driven completion, then hands down, Asana is a smart choice.

Asana keeps me on track

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the following features best:
-ability to tag coworkers
-upload multiple versions of files
-add subtasks to a larger task/project
-ability to sort tasks by due date/tag/project
What do you dislike about the product?
The primary thing I dislike is the integration with slack. The notifications were *constant* so our team ended up turning them off. It seems like it could be helpful to integrate a slack note to an asana task, but you could just have asana open in a different window.

I also have doubts about it being project management "without e-mail" because you still get notices of comments and task due date reminders/prompts via e-mail.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have an entirely remote team and are often working on several projects simultaneously, with shifting priorities. Asana is really helpful in keeping us organized and having a central location for tracking progress. This has also helped us better integrate our team into other departments that we work with. The ability to all see one project and it's progress - outside of just meeting times - has helped us improve cross-functional collaboration.

Great Task Management

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The great thing about Asana is how detailed you can get, even in the free version. We currently use the free version as we are still new to it, and it has a lot of different options. I also like how it integrates with Slack (we are starting to use that too), and when someone comments on a task, we can reply in Slack and it documents into Asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be very helpful to be able highlight sub-tasks in a color, like you can with regular tasks. There is a work-around (tags), but that takes more time, and we tend to forget. Also, it would be great if we could archive columns in projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are very disorganized with lots of ownership questions within different projects, so this program really helps to identify who does what, and then good to be able to look back and see what was decided.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you want more organization, this is a very good product. However, it is very important to know how your office works and the different tasks for each person in order to get this going. It can also be a rough transition if you aren't using anything prior to this.

Excellent Project Management

  • June 27, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the organization in Asana and how easy it is to create projects with team members, tasks, timelines, and invite clients in to collaborate with us. The task list makes it super easy to see how your day/week looks and makes you feel accomplished when you can check something off.
What do you dislike about the product?
Conversations get lost sometimes in the news feed. When several people are collaborating on a project it's sometimes hard to loop the third person into a conversation since it can only be assigned to one person at a time. It'd be great to be able to assign one task to multiple people rather than assign a copy so that several people can be included in the alerts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization of project time lines and people's to do lists. We also introduce bigger clients to asana to work with us in the software and they love it. They have the capability to be involved in the project and see progress as we work on it. It helps alleviate email and make sure that projects are not falling through the cracks. It is also a great communication tool for leadership in the company to keep ongoing private notes and remind ourselves of important things on a monthly/weekly basis if needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We are still playing around with the pros and cons of pin boards versus lists for projects. They offer both views but you cannot switch it once you choose. Some project timelines work better on boards than others, but tasks don't disappear which is sometimes annoying. So it does take some testing on what works best for your projects and sometimes starting a project over with a new type of task list.
