Asana is great for Project Management, whether you use Agile methodologies or waterfall
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a straightforward platform for project and product management. It allows you to have multiple workplaces and within each "workplace" you can have multiple projects. The free version allows you to have up to 15 collaborators per workplace. While creating the projects you can select from a variety of templates, use blank projects or even import from a CSV. The templates allow you to quickly set up your desired project. The projects have different views, and one view is selected as default. Those views are List view, Board view and Calendar, if you have a premium membership you can also use the timeline.
If you are dealing with IT Projects like me, you would most probably use the Board view, as they are efficient for IT Project or Product management.
Asana also has great integrations, one of the most useful ones is the Slack integration, but you will find many other great integrations.

What do you dislike about the product?
Although Asana is very useful for projects of any size, the downside of it is that while using it for the scrum, it requires a bit of learning. I believe the part for using Asana for scrum could be improved drastically, as many companies now use Scrum.
One downside of Asana is that it does not have default time tracking capabilities (although possible through integration).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Over the past 3 years, I have used Asana for more than 30 IT projects. The projects included both complex IT solutions and web app that took longer than 6 months to deliver, with team of 8 people, and also simple projects that took 1-2 months.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the help articles, and official tutorials they are great.
Perfect for keeping everything in one place!
What do you like best about the product?
Creating different project categories has been one of the greatest assets to me staying organized. I used to have a Google Doc list that would constantly get way out of hand, with tasks going missing, and Asana solved all of my problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing - the calendar look is the best, and the list view works too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying organized, creating tasks in different categories and different priorities, and more. This is well beyond the scope of what I could do before.
I've tried 3-4 major tools for project management, but Asana is ultimately the best one!

Minimalistic design, intuitive search, automatic rules

What do you dislike about the product?
Not much... the support team is very open to feedback and updates are regularly implemented. I will say that I believe the billing set up and structure could be simplified as this can be confusing.

Asana for work in a small IT company

I like the task priority options and the various board layouts. I LOVE the animations when a task is done!

What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there aren't options for notes yet. We create tasks and write a note and mark them as done.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving our organizational problems (some of us also work remotely) and describe every debugging process. Our boss is often overwhelmed and we use Asana as a reminder and history log. We also chat inside Asana. The UI is visually appealing which makes work more fun.
Our boss tracks all the progress and we (IT stuff) collaborate through Asana. We often work together on the same task in Asana and divide the work into subtasks.

Organization — figuring out how to run projects smoothly and keeping the team accountable.
Best management + collaboration tool for organisations and teams
What do you like best about the product?
Asana articulates the way where team collaboration happens in the real-life into a single app. Especially the way it handles tasks visibility, milestones tracking, team reviews and appreciation, and so much more. It keeps the team on the same page. Other than that, It's easily accessible across the web and mobile, so that when I'm traveling, I can still keep track of the notification.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that could be improved is the note-taking feature. A user could lose track of some important comments or notes if there're too many tasks and structures involved in a workspace. With that said, it prompted another issue where there aren't any offline note-taking features implemented just yet, probably pencil drawing ability I'm expecting to see in the future as well. Overall, I'm looking forward to seeing that down the road.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team used to have communications and tasks that took place in different applications. With Asana, our team productivity improved, our goals and milestones are tracked efficiently. We also used a lot of different plugins integration such as Gmail, Mailchimp, and website form integration. Asana acts like a central system and the base for every product. Besides, Asana Forum provides a lot of courses, education and inspiration on how to setup Asana to best suit the needs of my organisation.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Absolutely a good tool for company or team collaboration. You wouldn't regret to use that when you see how easy it is to reform your team communication and centralise it in a single app. Besides, if you do consider security while storing your files and tasks, do use Asana.
