Look out, Trello
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Asana is the options for swapping the views for your boards. Don't like the Trello card format? Try the list. this makes it great for lists/tasks, agendas, and anything else you need to organize and track. I also very much like being able to comment and see discussions for a historical view of what was talked about with regard to a particular task.
What do you dislike about the product?
The main quibble would be with the interface with regard to the project or group. Sometimes it's confusing which group project I'm viewing and it seems like there are a few extra steps of busy work in the setup of a project. Most likely a learning curve thing.Honestly, I haven't found anything else yet I dislike aside from the brand logo, which makes me feel like it's an app for tracking your cycle... It would be a great addition to be able to customize the app icon and maybe some of the other visuals as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This has helped me be more organized since comparing it to Trello. I love the conversational threads that can happen on tasks so I can go revisit what was concluded about a given issue with my team. I've also been able to bring more focus to my tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're working with a team of coworkers, I recommend getting them to adopt the use of Asana so they are not going outside of the app to update info or add new projects and tasks. Having the entire team use the app will make things run so much better.
Functional To Do List with some flows
What do you like best about the product?

* easy to share files
* the ability to follow up on current tasks so that you don't fall behind

What do you dislike about the product?
* I personally dislike the design - it looked like an organized mess. Still a mess though
* on the same note, I don't like the design - lack of graphics and visuals to make it easier for an eye
* I don't like templates that they offer - it's easier to create a new one myself rather than using one of their templates and wasting so much time to customize it to my needs
* Recurring tasks are a pain - you can only see the first line of the tasks and can't see the remaining ones until you complete the first one. It doesn't even make sense. They probably think they're helping us to stay on track, but in reality, it creates a hassle.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're a small business, and each person in our company wears multiple hats, which means we have lots of responsibilities and things to do. Asana helps us track our tasks, collaborate, assign people and follow up.
Review for asana
What do you like best about the product?
It provides good tracking of ongoing projects. It work no cloud based information.
What do you dislike about the product?

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

One of the best collaborative tools for WFH teams
What do you like best about the product?
Being my first experience with project management tools, working with Asana was really so easy. You will require little or no help to understand the task distribution and the overall workflow. Managing our day-to-day task with Asana is quite simple. For the project managers, creating a new project and its subtasks is straightforward. Once the tasks are created they can be easily assigned to teams, just by names.
What do you dislike about the product?
Actually, there is no demerits or disadvantages to this application. The app works the best for all scenarios and project handling. Even if I compare it with EverNote I will prefer using Asana as it covers all the worthy features for project management. However, if I had to list one demerit then it would be its pricing. Once the pricing structure for paid Asana editions will become less, it will do wonders in the IT market.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I feel Asana is capable of handling everything, basic to complex projects. Task handling is very smooth and you don't need to refer to any tutorials for it. Yes, I have used a limited set of features but the free version is still better than the other tools. Talking about its visuals, the interface is neat and easy to understand. You can keep a track of all the tasks that have been assigned to you and you can change their status accordingly as working, done or completed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For new startup businesses, who have just entered into IT industry, Asana is the best tool for teams collaboration. The way it offers an option to create multiple projects and their subtasks is super. On top of that, you can set up priorities and deadlines for a specific task. Managers can easily keep an eye on the progress of the work whether it's pending or has been completed. Though I have not used the Premium and Business features, the Basic version will also do a great job.
In short, I would highly recommend it for the work for home culture.

Critical in managing departmental tasks
What do you like best about the product?
I love how collaborative it is. You can invite team members, comment, and update everyone, all in one place. It's great to be able to have different projects, too.
There are different ways to layout tasks as well: for example, lists, visually (similar to a Trello layout), or calendar views. The free version is robust.

What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great if you could sync it to your calendar and set reminders, as some team members prefer to work with their calendar for task and time management.
I would also love a desktop app.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I started off as the only person on my team, so I knew all of the jobs on the go. As the team grew with interns, part-time and contract workers, as well as full-time employees, it became increasingly important to have a place with all tasks and for me to be able to not only keep track of them, but ensure deadlines are being met, too. It has been critical to have a tool like this.
Prioritize Tasks, Work Freely and Remotely...!!!
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing I like about Asana is that we can have internal chats and comments over the tasks and projects we have created over the dashboard. Also, it updates with notifications when any team member updates about his task with the milestones in the tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
It makes the notification tray messy when we have more than one task assigned to teams, and we are regularly updating all projects. At that point, the notifications are flooded seamlessly, and there is nothing sort of priority thing at that point.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am working in an organization and assigning tasks to the development team and research team by adding them over to their specific projects and providing each group ember all the necessary updates and information about the product development and progress in the work. All the features of Asana are pretty awesome.
Good Project Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Simple, elegant, easy to use. Not much of a learning curve like Project Online or Jira.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not suitable for complex projects. Extracting the data for analysis can be difficult
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quick management tools can be used by Marketing and Sales teams. Easy rollout. Fully cloud. Easier maintenance.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try comparing this with Jira, Planner, and Project online before deciding on one product

Useful but Requires a Lot of Training
What do you like best about the product?
I love how customizable it is to any business. It's an awesome way to organize all our assets!
What do you dislike about the product?
It requires a lot of training to get fully up to speed on all the functionalities. Not as user-friendly as I'd like.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're using Asana to organize all our marketing assets for the company.
Asana is life.
What do you like best about the product?
Unlimited nestled tasks! Considering we have cognitive biases that make us underestimate the time it takes things, the level of detail asana affords helps me and my team combat this for better project planning and time estimating.
What do you dislike about the product?
Literally nothing. I've used asana for 6 years in three different organizations. In the first two we thoroughly evaluated all competitors and asana was the best tool for managing research and design work. Third team I told them Asana or nothing!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have better time estimates and we are able to show senior leadership our workload. Having our work mapped out enables us manage and Re-prioritize when work shifts, as often does in government.
