Asana makes workflows a breeze!

What do you like best about the product?
We have been using the free version of Asana for a good five years at the university I am at, and I have always enjoyed it. As someone who makes checklists for everything, this website can keep yourself and your team on top of your work. Building out tasks, adding in subtasks, due dates, uploading files, writing comments, and assigning tasks to coworkers are just a few activities you can do in Asana. It keeps me organized! Ideally, if a university could get multiple departments on a platform like Asana, I belive that could really help workflows out tremendously. Every once in awhile someone in one office may be out, a request would get stuck waiting for a reply in someone's email. By adding multiple collaborators to a task, writing comments, giving updates, etc. that could allow each side to know where everyone is on the project.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not found much that I dislike about Asana. The more you use it, the more you enjoy it. Sometimes you may have to nudge your coworkers to use it a bit more so you can all be on the same page. I do know that my one coworker has worked on adding an automatic feed from her email to Asana. I may to dig more into that compared to just manually adding in each task, subtask, attachment, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to upload project requests all into one platform so everyone on the team can view and work on them is the best attribute. We have so many emails and requests each day, Asana allows us to break the request down into pieces, add due dates and keep everyone who needs to be involved in the loop and not have to rely on email chains.

Before having Asana, we used another platform but it was not as smooth running. It was more of just lists and didn't allow for comments, reactions, or uploads. Asana allowing a team to add comments, upload documents, and not have to rely on email as your only communication for projects is ideal and I would never go back to just doing the latter.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a shot! The free version has already lasted my team at my university for at least five years now. Sign up for it and play around a bit, look up more reviews, they have webinars, support, you name it!

Asana has completely transformed the way my department collaborates

  • November 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the transparency across different projects that I'm involved with so I know how my work impacts others and vice versa. I also love how we can layer different technologies in so that we have a single source of truth for status. We integrate Slack, Jira, Teams, Sharepoint, Dropbox and more which has helped us so much and reduced time spent searching for documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
We really wish that there was a way that Asana could integrate duration for project tasks and move dependencies accordingly. Right now the only way to move timelines is by selecting every item in the timeline view. It also doesn't adjust the sub-task dates which is a challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm not sure how the team managed work before Asana. I'm new and when I joined, it was one of the first recommendations I made. Now instead of constantly pointing fingers and putting out fires, we're able to uncover the deeper issues in our team due to transparency of who is involved and which tasks impact one another. That's allowing us to identify training and resource gaps. It will take some time to solve our deeper problems but we wouldn't have truly understood the extent of them without documenting them and having transparency.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Prioritize your strategy for using Asana. Start with a small group to learn best practices before rolling out at a wider level.

Great free plan. If you want premium features, you may find better options

  • November 05, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
You can create projects, tasks, subtasks, track deadlines and collaborate in a very effective way. The free plan is enough for our needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
12 USD/user is a lot for a small company. That said, their free plan has enough features for a small company… and since it is free, there is not much to complain about.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In a personal and company level, juggling with different projects at the same time can be a bit overwhelming, if you write down everything in Asana, you can forget about all the things you have to do, and focus on actually doing them.
