Very good, but there's still room for improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is flexible and has a neat interface – once you get used to it.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is a bit steep. For experienced users of project management tool it is probably an easy ride, but for people who are new to this universe it can seem rather intimidating to learn all the functions and the apparently cluttered interface, which only starts to make sense after a few hours of trial and error.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana solves the problem of centralising multiple projects and contexts in a single system. It is a great solution for bringing more order to those who manage different projects in different contexts at the same time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's an excellent tool, as long as your team accepts and has the time to go through a steep learning curve.
Asana is the most convenient and collaborative tool for greater productivity
What do you like best about the product?
My expectations for Asana are really great "so many" that it has become indispensable for me. I like Asana because it is an online productivity tool for project planning and task management in a collaborative work environment. Asana's main goal is to facilitate teamwork so that staff focus on the goals to be achieved and the work to be done. What I enjoy most about asana is being able to customize everything to my liking, as well as using tasks such as ideas, notes or reminders, and within them "tasks" to be able to list series of subtasks. Subtasks show the same functions as normal tasks, therefore, you can create another list of subtasks within them or as you see fit.
Note: You can sync it to Google Calendar and upload unlimited files

I recommend Asana because it is so versatile that I can use it both to list the most important tasks of the week, and to upload ideas, as well as I can customize everything to my liking, I can also synchronize everything with google calendar (my favorite option with which I am every day calm)

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Trial out Asana for a good amount of time to really see if all the features meet your needs and ask support to help you specifically with demos. Their support is great.
I liked a lot it until I tried to manage subtasks within projects
What do you like best about the product?
Overall I really like Asana UI. It's very easy to create tasks, assigned to people, select a deadline. I also really like the search and filtering options. It's quite easy to get a quick view of the different pending, completed tasks for different projects, assigned to different people. I use Asana to log all my tasks because I know it will be very convenient to access them later on.
What do you dislike about the product?
The major flaw of Asana I've seen so far is how the relationship between tasks and sub-tasks is handled. I use sub-tasks a lot, often time nesting several levels of sub-tasks that can have different deadlines or owners than the parent's task. It is very easy to create these sub-tasks. However, I have not seen any option to populate some of the parent's task attributes to the sub-tasks. For instance, if the parent task is part of Project A, it is not possible to automatically assigned the sub-task to Project A. This action has to be done manually for each sub-tasks. Also when doing so, the sub-tasks gets automatically added to the top section of the project view which is very random. As a result, I need to manually drag down all sub-tasks assigned to a project to the bottom section of the project in order to "hide" it. It doesn't seem that the project view is very customizable to what kind of tasks you want to show or not. I use project management to increase my productivity and here I by spending time dragging down tasks around I'm giving back some productivity gains. I would expect from a project management tool that has been around for a long time to have a better way to manage task<>sub-task relationship.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems I'm solving are to be better organized with my teammates on the differents tasks/projects we have going. If a task isn't logged in Asana it almost like it doesn't exist.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Think ahead on how you intend to use Asana and how your usage may evolve over time and see if you can build your ideal workflow within Asana. Test it before starting to adopt it, it's never pleasant to have to migrate to another solution once you have invested some time adopting a project management solution. I think Asana is great for simple tasks/project management but in my experience, for complex project management that involves sub-tasks, you may run into limitations sooner than expected.
