I rely on Asana to help me be organized
What do you like best about the product?
My tasks! Ability to add due dates, descriptions, and automatic rules to move My Tasks to sections. And, of course, the extra delights!
What do you dislike about the product?
I never really use the inbox section. Also, Goals are still a bit difficult to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest benefit is that now I'm on top of all my tasks. I'm able to prioritize my tasks and get things done on time.
Love Asana!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is easy to use and great for marketing teams. It's been one of the easiest project management tools to train my teams on.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think Asana has limited reporting capabilities that are found in other project management systems. I'd like to be able to report, and show reporting to leadership
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Visibility for managers on projects, and project management
Best project management tool in the market

Very user-friendly and simple interface for beginners to understand.
What do you dislike about the product?
The premium features require a bit of training.

Managing projects, various teams, meeting deadlines and achieving goals.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
attend Asana workshops and webinars to understand the products and how you can best implement in your organisation.
Great way to stay orgnaized!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the tasks feature. It has saved my brain so much pain. I have a tendency to forget a lot of small tasks but Asana has helped me stay on top of my job , so much so that my boss has noticed!
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a little hard to understand at first. When we first started using it I get really stressed looking at all the features, but that's about it!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mostly issues with organizing my tasks and reminding me of deadlines for awards or press releases.
Best project management platform with low learning curve
What do you like best about the product?
Although it has many features, you don't have to know much to get started. You simply create a task, give it a due date, and assign it. The hierarchy of tasks inside projects, and projects inside portfolios, is an easy way to share work to management.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana does not offer a great way to view projects as a Gantt chart, for organizations who demand that.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have cut the number of communications between departments by using notifications and Slack integration.
I really love Asana.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the way that Asana creates space for meaningful, asynchronous collaboration around work right where the work is being completed. I love the way we've been able to systematize our processes - and especially our communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish templates, workflows, and forms could be copied across projects. My job is largely helping people work together, and that means a lot of repetitive work rebuilding things I've already developed in other projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are tracking work, noticing where work is getting stuck and resolving impediments that are slowing us down, creating transparency around what is being done by whom, and facilitating easy meeting agendas around the work that's actually being done!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is so adaptable! You can make this system work for you, especially if you're willing to dive into the (excellent) training videos and establish norms around how you work with others on your team. I am obsessed with Asana because it has given me ease in my daily work.
Asana is the smoothest and prettiest solution to our organizational needs
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is smooth, fast, and beautiful. It's an elegant solution to any project/task management needs that my small company has, and it's more powerful and capable than any other platform I've used.
What do you dislike about the product?
It broke my heart when Asana muted their color palette; I wish that there was more visual differentiation. Also, the inability to save task templates to be used workspace/organization-wide is limiting.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before, my team was using Salesforce to house our work and manage tasks. It was clunky, because SF is a CRM and isn't designed to handle project/task management. Asana was obviously created for this very purpose, and it's much more effective.
Best Invention Ever!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has been a part of my work life for over a year now. As an executive assistant, it keeps me updated on what I need to do so that I never miss an assignment. I would be lost if it wasn't for Asana. Thank you!
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing I dislike about the feature. Everything works exactly as it should and there are never issues with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have never missed an important date or task---thanks to Asana. I can easily share status with my colleagues on pending assignments and share/respond to feedback almost instantly. This is great!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is going to be your new best friend. It is great, easy to use, and for administrative assistants like me, a dream come true. Organize your life now!
Best project management system that I have ever used
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how user friendly it is. Asana works well with other important systems that my organization uses.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that my organization does not have the Business level of Asana...we're working on it; however, we are a nonprofit
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped our team with the flow of project management and accountability for those projects
The tool teams need to do their best work together
What do you like best about the product?
The flexible nature of Asana, meaning whether a team is looking for a simple tool or seeking more complex features, is what I love most about Asana.
In particular, some of my favorite capabilities include board customization to meet a team's specific needs, the ability to build out an entire step-by-step workflow through tasks and subtasks, and the calendar view for a holistic understanding of tasks and deadlines. I use My Tasks to manage my to-do lists and appreciate that I can store my to-dos in one place, even if they aren't tied to a project or board in Asana.
The interface is relatively intuitive once users get over the initial learning curve.

What do you dislike about the product?
Depending on how a team plans to use Asana, or if a user has never dabbled in a project management tool before, Asana can have a steep learning curve. Fortunately, there are many resources available to overcome any learning hurdles.
This may be self-explanatory, but I didn't find Asana as valuable when I worked strictly as a sole contributor. Users get more value from the tool when they're using it with one or more team members. Previously, I was granted access to Asana as an executive assistant. My executive team did not use Asana, so I didn't need all the robust features and capabilities to manage my workload.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work in business operations, and the main benefits we solve with Asana are communication gaps amongst teams, commitment to project deadlines, and streamlined workflows through templatizing project initiation. Asana enables cross-functional team collaboration and makes it easy to repeat the same steps for projects repeatedly, which helps maintain quality and allows new team members to adopt processes quickly.
