Extremely customizable
What do you like best about the product?
The amount of detail you can add helps to stay extremely organized. Asana’s mobile apps are available for both iOS and Android, but there are alot of clicks to get where you want to be. The software can be integrated with third-party applications like Sunrise, Dropbox, Slack, Box, Google Drive and Hipchat.
What do you dislike about the product?
You must have a strategy to layout your processes and it works best if you have an admin who can monitor progress and own how work is set up. It lacks in the areas around more in-depth aspects of project management, but it works fine for managing workflow. Reporting is fairly basic and may not meet all teams' needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use the platform for workflow management and communication between departments working on one project. There are a lot of details to be assigned so it forces you to look at your whole process from beginning to end and may uncover holes in the workflow. Communication between departments has improved as long as everyone uses the system and not email. It has been a case of adoption for our users.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure you have an understanding of what you need, what your users need, and the added value you will get from your chose of a collaborative work management solution. Your users need to love it and find new ways to use the tool to help be a lean and productive team.
Asana is a LIFESAVER
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has truly helped me get organized and stay on topic at work! The design and product features are top-notch, even at the free level. I really like the options to see your project in many different ways. For example, I often list out my tasks and then switch the view to the kanban board. The kanban board is perfect for dividing tasks into Do Now and Do later.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I dislike is there doesn't seem to be a feature for setting a priority for tasks inside of a project. This would help me be able to evaluate more quickly what I need to get done first.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana I have improved my workflow and project management. Before I was constantly writing to-do lists in journals only to forget them or not remember what I had written down. I constantly bought new planners but could never commit to actually filling them out. Asana has changed all of this. Now I feel like I have my own personal assistant!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It can be really hard to find a project management software that checks off all the boxes for what you need. I have tried several and none of them have retained me as a user, except for Asana! If you ask me, Asana is the program to use. If you're not sure, sign up for the free version and test it out; I am sure you will love it as much as I do!
Very well features project management software
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to visualize what we are on track what is pending, what we are late doing when managing a team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not that easy to involve software engineering team in the use of the software. They still prefer Jira.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time and task management for cross functional projects
Deliver on time our tasks

Asana helps me keep track of a flurry of requests
What do you like best about the product?
The user interface is pretty easy and responsive to my actions, the organization of My Tasks makes a lot of sense. There are a lot of additional features which I don't necessarily need but they seem to be out for the way for my usual workflow.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are so many features in Asana and it's clear to me that people use it very differently because of that. It can be overwhelming if you're on a lot of teams and have a lot of different projects to coordinate. I wish notification options were more robust.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization of tasks, reminders of things I need to read or follow up on. It's helping declutter my mind and putting all my post-it notes in one place accessible on multiple devices.
Asana Review
What do you like best about the product?
I love this system! It is very user friendly and I think that anyone could use it! I love that it is very easy to navigate as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing that I dislike about it. I think that is very integrated and helpful on all platforms that we implement it on!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to be more organized myself and as a team. I think that it was a learning curve at first with a new system but overall it has been a great choice!
Useful Task Controller
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an effective way to manage your own tasks and assign them to the whole team
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana could stand to be integrated with Gcal, that would allow more accountability for tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Intuitive turn on/off for recurring tasks would be ideal.
Amazing software
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is so user friendly and has great interface and functionality
What do you dislike about the product?
It keeps me too organized sometimes and doesn’t let me get lazy! Ha!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizational progress tracking, team co-working and overall workflow
Need to learn more
What do you like best about the product?
I am new to Asana and as I am the only one in my office using it, I really don't have a lot of experience, but what I have seen so far has been good. I like the tracking system for deadlines soft/hard and I like using it just for personal use as well as for business.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost is a bit prohibitive, and I am weighing up Wrike against Asana for the longterm.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My main problem-solve with Asana is keeping track of different projects: Budgets, timelines, personnel, etc.
As I mentioned before not having anyone to use it with at the moment means the benefits are somewhat restrained.

Easy Messaging
What do you like best about the product?
This platform is easy to use to share messages, images, links and other important documents in easy threads so messages never get lost.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it's hard to keep up with the double messages since they come through email & on the platform as well. It clutters up your mail inbox.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easy to keep message threads, projects, delivery of files and other necessities all in one place.
Insanely Flexible and Customizable
What do you like best about the product?
Love the ability to view projects as either a Kanban-style board or as a sectioned checklist. It makes it very easy to ingest a lot of information quickly to be able to prioritize and tackle action items in a comprehensive manner.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are lots of integrations, but not a lot of functionality other than using them as alerts and to create new tasks. Would be love to check off an asana task that was linked to an email from that email view in gmail. Also would love to see a Google Calendar integration that would allow me to add tasks and project items to my google calendar and check them off from there as well as create tasks linked to meetings on my calendar as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking and remembering every single task that I should be aware of and/or am responsible for. Also not just cross-team collaboration, but cross-organizational collaboration by being able to assign tasks to others that are not in my org.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Establish best practices within your company for cross-team collaboration otherwise there is the potential for projects to be redundant and/or cluttered.
