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
Asana Review

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.
Great for a growing team!
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to collaborate with my team, multiple project view options, dependencies allow for approval processes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that you have to purchase bundles of seats when you run out. I want to add them one by one as we grow and not ten at a time. Some of the functions of dependencies are great, but the ability to customize workflows for assignments and processes would be beneficial.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration via email can be so chaotic. Asana allows our team to have a single source of truth for projects, events, programs, and requests. We used to use a google slide deck to update our team on different activities. Asana enables team members to log in anytime, anywhere, to find all of the information they need. With international team members working opposite hours, that means they can keep working without having to wait until the next workday for an answer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is an excellent project management and collaboration tool for a growing team! We've scaled from 5-10 users to 40+ in the last year, and it continues to be a valuable tool to keep us on track!
The great world of its own creation by Asana.

Calender integration helps in keeping schedule and time.
Great tracker with timely reporting and easy document uploading.

What do you dislike about the product?
I'm just amused that I have no set backs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making it our daily task management tool and involving all team members to work towards a similar target.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It has been there for years. There is no excuse as to not use it for anything to do with projects and tasks.
Tracking and organizing projects is easier and more professional.
What do you like best about the product?
One of the things I like about Asana is how easy to use its task list, it is very modern and practical, you can list all kinds of tasks you can think of and then do them, you can set an alarm or reminder which will help you to be more productive and keep in mind all the projects you might forget, another feature is its excellent compatibility with other operating systems and electronic devices, it is a very convenient program.
What do you dislike about the product?
The software has not let me down in any way, it has fulfilled everything I needed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped me and the team I work with to be more efficient and productive workers. Asana supports us with a variety of state-of-the-art and very practical functions which makes our understanding, knowledge and skills much better at work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a software you can rely on.
Task organization at its finest
What do you like best about the product?
I've used various systems to organize my task list and keep projects in order: Salesforce, Google Calendar, and more. But Asana is the best I've used at managing my work to increase my productivity and my team's productivity. A large part of this is the ability to make task and project templates which I can repeatedly use instead of recreating a project with 20 tasks that each have five subtasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I want Asana to give me alerts and reminders. I can look at my task list and calendar, but I'm not in Asana all day, so it would be nice to have the option to have it pop up when I have time-sensitive events that need to begin. A lack of reminders doesn't stop me from working, but it would be preferable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team used to assign tasks using Excel Spreadsheets. That is not an ideal way to track progress and assign tasks. Asana helps us save hours each week by helping us see what we need to do and when in a friendly and comfortable user interface. I can view my tasks in each project differently, from a list to a calendar or a kanban priority board, and each of these is useful for different reasons in different projects.
