The best project management software

  • January 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is perfect for projects, including those where you manage resources and have complex constraints. Overall, I have enjoyed working with this product because it is easy to use and easy to navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a lot of training but it is by far the best product on the market. It is a bit complex at first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used Asana for a complex project and it was really remarkable. This is the perfect software for projects, including those where you manage resources and have complex restrictions.

A Good Project Managament Tool with Very nice UX but lacks in Features

  • January 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Me & my team have used Asana 2 years back. That time there were not much options. Jira was very costly for us as our company was a small startup, so we used Asana. It was good to start with, the UX is really amazing and there presence over different ecosystems is also commandable.
What do you dislike about the product?
So even though we have tried Asana, we couldn't scale up our product management with it cause it lacked some of the necessary external integrations. As our team became larger, we needed those integrations to maintain accountability over sections and manage task+code syncs. Also, the pricing has become a bit on the higher side now; in that price range, you can get other software that offers many more features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were doing the product management entirely with Asana, starting with creating epics, tasks, features to assigning them to respective teams, and then tracking those tasks and bugs.

Life saver for remote teams

  • January 19, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana eliminates the need to send a billion emails. I no longer need to remember every project detail and task.
What do you dislike about the product?
The notifications can get a bit overwhelming, causing me to ignore them in total and miss out on important items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team is tightly connected and in-step, despite being located all over the globe.

My team has become more efficient thanks to Asana.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really like the groups feature that has allowed me to delegate users to different projects and tasks. Also the effectiveness it has in being able to keep track of how the whole team is doing with a project just by looking at the assignment and project history to see what everyone contributed.
It gives people precise goals so there are no mistakes, and absolutely anything can be fixed through Asana in the easiest and most convenient way possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice if they could add more effective ways to let me know when I'm done with an activity or remind me when I have something pending. What they could do to improve it is to add any kind of sound or. Also, the color matching facility could have been better.
I don't like it when I'm doing a task and I have to add it to the calendar to give it a specific color.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana can be useful not only for work but also for anything you want to organize in your life. Asana has helped me to assign tasks to my team members and be able to track progress in real time. It also allows you to set deadlines and send reminders via email or text message to Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have someone who really knows what they're doing when it comes to project management, ask them to create their own Asana to organize everything more complex within the app, after that the rest of the team will be able to use it easily too. It also acts as a tool to generate real-time data usage reports. I highly recommend Asana for task management and project management.

The way it packs everything with panels is just clever.

  • January 18, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana allows users to see all assigned tasks for the day, week, month, etc. at a glance. It allows you to divide your tasks into individual projects, keeping you accountable. Dashboards are a great feature if you are working with other people or groups on projects. The loading speed of this site has been improving over time being quite fast even when customized.
What do you dislike about the product?
Have the labels section appear on the action tab. I would like more opportunities to colorize tasks and columns to make it easier to organize.
Asana lacks the usual features that allow competent users to get the most out of the app, things like conditional logic for rules or the ability to integrate the platform more actively with external software. What they can improve is communication with the team, as project managers need to consider communication, which is key in large projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped me to keep track of daily tasks and activities with clients and teams regardless of their time zone while maintaining an organized work without the need to work all within the same schedule. It allowed me to conveniently and efficiently track the completion of tasks assigned to my work team, allowing me to see the progress of current projects in real time. In addition to facilitating the planning of new devices.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The Asana service is recommended for small business teams that need easy-to-use software, and while it's not very intuitive, including a features and attributes section in the ribbon can make it more manageable.
With the Resource Manager tool, if you find that a team member has a lot to do, you can quickly reactivate and reassign tasks. Simply click on the drop-down menu to open the details view, then drag and drop the task to reschedule or reassign it to other team members.

Well done mobile app, all its tools work amazingly!

  • January 17, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The mobile version that Asana has is quite well developed and optimized, and although it does not meet a lot of tools, personally I think they are necessary or at least in my case they were for what I needed, I could work without problems from places where I do not have access to a pc comfortably and without much complication.
I think that another positive point to mention about Asana is its simple, intuitive and easy to use interface, unlike many project managers this one was very easy to understand making me pleasant the adaptation to this technology.
What do you dislike about the product?
It sends an exaggerated amount of unnecessary daily notifications to your email generating that in your email it becomes quite arduous to find really important messages from this app making you prefer not to even look at the emails that arrive missing out on updates.
It is not very useful for estimates, it does not allow the use of clocks or historical points, and it does not collect estimates for each Scrum sprint mission, for example.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helped me get organized so that understanding and accountability are not affected or distorted in dozens of emails.
As a login checklist, it is very useful and easy to understand.
Unlike its competitors, Asana has a mobile version that is simple, effective and has accurate notifications. (This is what I like most about Asana).
Its free version is very complete, it can really be applied to medium-sized projects without spending money and it will do it all in the long run.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I advise you to create an email specifically to register in Asana, because if you are someone who uses email professionally and you need a clean email to be aware of important emails, it can become very annoying the amount of unnecessary notifications that Asana sends daily.
To make the most of what Asana offers to stay on top of the progress of all your projects in real time, have the "My Tasks" tool activated.
It also allows you to set your own color codes to create a more user-friendly system.

Keep track or your team's task

  • January 17, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an amazing tool for managing your projects and optimising your team's performance. With the task board view, you can have a real-time view of what's happening in a team project
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it a bit difficult to manage sprints. I feel other project management tools are better for this. It is slightly difficult to implement product management techniques like kandan and scrum
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps you keep a track of what your team members are doing, identify the roadblocks of your product and thus, optimise the same. You can set more realistic timelines with this

I like the simplicity, and the color coded aspects. I also love that I can keep up with my calendar and task all in one place

Nothing that I dislike as of now. Maybe integrate with Calendly

I'm solving the problem of not having my task, client task all in one place. It helps me save time by using Asana.

Following agile projects with ASANA

  • January 17, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The simple interface and its intuitive design allow users to become familiar from day one, minimizing the learning curve. It does not require a learning curve or the need to be a professional in the technological area for its use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Possibly, in cases where the project grows exponentially during its execution, it is a bit difficult to review dependencies and align with objectives set long ago.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is "super useful" for software development projects, as well as for activities that require the participation of several collaborators and, in general, any task that needs continuous monitoring. We have been able to track development sprints with relative ease as we can assign tasks to those responsible for updating the progress of their activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Carry out prior planning of the scope and organize based on objectives.

Great tool for collaborating and tracking projects

  • January 17, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
My supervisor and peers can see the progress I am making on a project, assign tasks. It connects to Gmail, making it easier to assign tasks directly from emails received.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to learn how to use. Need to take time to learn, which can make it overwhelming to new users. Tasks are only assigned to one person. Doesn't allow time tracking, so it is hard to know how much time was devoted to a task/project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allows collaboration between team members on projects. Makes it easier for my supervisor to keep track of projects I am working on. Helps us keep track of the process it took to complete a project.
