Digital Marketing Agency Go-To for Project Management

  • June 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
For my agency, Asana's strengths lie in its flexibility. Where several other project management tools fell short in their ability to track multiple projects for multiple clients, Asana handles this seamlessly. Asana is a critical tool for trafficking work through our agency. It allows for effective and efficient communication related to task requirements and feedback. We make good use of the custom reporting which makes it easy to see tasks, due dates, and priorities by team member or client on a rolling basis.

I also appreciate the integrations with other tools, especially Slack and our time-tracking tool, Everhour.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn't call this a dislike as much as a heads-up: We had a dedicated team member (along with support from a small informal internal committee) who was responsible for setup, implementation, documentation of usage standards, and training our team. During this process, she spent a lot of time getting to know the product, understanding its features and flexibility, and deciding how to most effectively set up our clients, projects, and tasks. In the absence of this, I don't think the tool would have been as intuitively useful moving forward and I suspect adoption across the agency would have failed.

This is not a criticism of Asana, but rather an acknowledgment that it is a robust and flexible professional tool that merits dedicated ownership and management within an organization. Since set up, it has been easy for new team members to onboard and use daily with little to no education or experience on the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Since integrating Asana into our daily workflow, we are better equipped to set and manage project timelines, share files and feedback consistently, and prevent updates from slipping through the cracks. It improved communication by adding a level of objectivity as we maintain Asana as our "single source of truth." This means that through the natural course of our work, we are creating and keeping a historical record of feedback, decisions, timelines, and deliverables all in one easy-to-reference place.

Asana Review

What do you like best about the product?
What I appreciate most about Asana is its capability to cross-index it with multiple projects, integrate it with multiple platforms to centralize all data sets.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana sometimes is very slow with loading the information. We have just upgraded the platform and we're seeing a lot of features now that can be used by the team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like how it addresses the issue of ensuring accountability from its team members. You can also easily see where the bottle necks are and the next steps that are required in terms of assessing how far you are in terms of project completion.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's always best to use a project management tool and Asana does the job.

Asana provides order and visibility

  • June 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The ability to gain oversight on all ongoing tasks while collaborating with many parts of the company. Instead of having to email, message, or call a colleague to determine the status - anyone can see where a project stands and who is either working on the next step or holding the next step up.
What do you dislike about the product?
Inbox madness. We've developed different work styles to help manage the inbox. If you're working or overseeing many tasks your inbox can be hit hard with notifications with every step or touch a project has. To avoid this I've just turned off email notifications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Order! No longer do we have people pointing fingers and matters of he said she said. All projects must start via a form within Asana that connects to our project tracker. This has alleviated quite a burden from our Creative team.

It's a great tool if you have a team and methodology

  • June 02, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love Asana because allows me to understand where is my team and track the process of all projects. I usually work on a few projects for different clients at the same time, Asana is very helpful because on the same app I can see the availability of my team and the status of each project. With this tool, I can send reports and status about the project's progress.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes is difficult to create the entire flow of the project. If you have a lot of tasks is hard to track and sometimes these tasks are due and lose visibility. The message part is not the best tool, doesn't work well with the notifications, and is hard to follow the new messages.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If you have a lot of tasks, like me, the section "my tasks" can't show the field tags and don't show the priority. This is an important thing when you need to prioritize your work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start now...is a great tool and gives you the entire vision of your agency.
