Share files and manage projects
What do you like best about the product?
Sharing information is a vital part of our jobs. In this globalized and virtualized world, working on the same project with colleagues who are physically far from our workplace is becoming an everyday thing.
Asana not only allows me to share files, but to access and work on the same information at the same time. It is a friendly tool that facilitates work without requiring much training or technological knowledge.
They allow the entire work team to have access to the files it needs to carry out the task.
They are your backup copy. Before any inconvenience with the machines, you can rest easy knowing that you will be able to access that information in the virtual space.
They offer variety. It allows you to take stock of your needs.
In addition to collaboration features like messaging and file sharing, Asana offers a customizable dashboard, basic automation features like automatic status updates, and the ability of task-dependent workflows.

What do you dislike about the product?
Until now there are no features or functionalities that I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As your work needs grow, so does the number of people with whom you should keep information up-to-date. This is why I use Asana because sharing files, syncing documents and tasks, and managing communication channels becomes increasingly important to success.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Using Asana in the business environment, with the aim of improving communications and their productivity, has been a crucial element for conducting video conferences and virtual meetings. The main use is concentrated in company-client meetings or those carried out by the company's own partners.
Good communication thread and better coordination between my colleagues
What do you like best about the product?
I like Asana because it offers something that other collaboration tools don't have:
• Asana is visually simple and intuitive. Its task management interface uses kanban style cards to visually organize tasks, states and deadlines.
• Asana integrates with your files and applications for continuous collaboration. You can attach different files in the tasks, from images to audios. (Best of all, this is archived in Asana)
• Allows creation and exchange of files: to create, store and share files and documents with your team. (Examples: Dropbox, Google Drive, Box).
• Messaging and communication tool: to connect and communicate between computers.
• It has a notifications section titled “Inbox”, where you can track all the tasks you belong to and the intervention of other users in other projects.
• It has a calendar, ordered by the delivery dates of the different tasks.
• You can organize the tasks to your liking: By delivery date, by assigned, etc.
• Another feature that I love and that I use a lot is that you can have secret projects. In this way you can have much more privacy with certain information that you only want to share with certain members or with none.
• With Asana you will be able to create different projects, where you will have the possibility to assign a certain number of tasks within each project.

No derogatory comments, excellent personal experience
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
• A saving of time, thanks to the immediacy of this communication tool.
• Significant cost savings, since it is not necessary to transfer any of the members called to that meeting to a common point.
• A consequent increase in productivity

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Light and clutter-free, learning to use Asana is a very simple process, making it an excellent choice for users who have not worked with any online collaboration tools before. Asana is also good for small, growing teams that work closely together and don't need a ton of project management features or resources up front.
The best tool to coordinate your projects!
What do you like best about the product?
Since we started using Asana, it was much easier to organize all the projects, creating tasks and assigning them to the team members who had to carry them out. But not only that, but Asana also allows you to create sub-tasks or To-Do lists to complete each assignment, which makes the job easier.
Likewise, Asana also allows me to prioritize the different tasks to know which ones I should do first, efficiently, and quickly.
Its interface is also excellent, quite flexible, and friendly, and it is straightforward to use and visually attractive, which undoubtedly adds more advantages.
The ability to leave comments on tasks and tag other team members is also an advantage in using this tool, as it allows you to resolve any situation quickly. No doubt, Asana appeared to save our lives.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I have not liked about Asana; it is simple to use from the first moment; it offers us everything we need to organize projects and tasks, and much more. Perhaps the only point against it would be that the calendar is a little challenging to manage at first if you want to see the tasks completed, but it is not really serious and can be solved quickly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before using Asana, we used to send all work and assignments by email. This took time from having to compose each email individually and review all pending work daily.
It was also more challenging to keep track of the progress being made in real-time, but with Asana, these problems are a thing of the past.
Now we can assign all the tasks for the week, set the dates they must be completed, create subtasks, and assign each one to the corresponding team members. But not only that, as we can see the progress in real-time, and the development of each one of the projects, quickly and on a single platform.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need to organize the projects and tasks that your team manages, Asana is the best option for your company. You will be more than happy about using Asana with your team, as it's really easy to use and manage. You definitely won't regret it.
Asana is beautiful and practical.
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is far much cleaner and refined than other competitors like Trello and Monday.com. Their minimalist design helps me focus on my work and see my progress easily without being overwhelmed by too much chunky look.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t like that the free basic account offers only a few features. It’s frustrating for people like me that have a small team and especially for when people what to use the app for personal use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana especially for project management. It helps me keep on schedule especially when I have to split y time between different projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free basic service and check out the features. If there is a free month of worth of an upgrade test it out. It’s worth spending the time in it to set up the right process for your team.
Asana makes cooperation easy
What do you like best about the product?
The interface is incredibly easy to understand, yet offers a depth of features. I often work with customers in Asana for whom it's the first time using it (or any project management tool for that manner), however they pick it up in minutes.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing I really dislike about Asana. I would like some more integrations with others products I use, but really that's nitpicking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana for project management and cooperating with customers (I run a marketing agency). The main problems I solve with Asana is a lack of project overview and a lack of clarity. With Asana cooperation has become easier and everyone involved has a better understanding of what's going on with the project. So we cooperate better and more project are delivered on time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it, for most use cases the free tier is more than enough.
SIMPLIFIES COLLABORATIVE WORK AND MONITORING
What do you like best about the product?
Collaborative work and transparency, the whole team can see where you work, your progress and when you finish a task. It helps a lot to set dates, and deadlines for a project.
The labels in the tasks have proven to be very useful, in the case of a team that we manage a scrum board with many tasks at the team level.

What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that meetings cannot be generated from Asana, to save meetings or meeting notes in the same project.
It would be very useful if you can create meetings in Meet or zoom from Asana and have a template for meeting notes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization and monitoring, the automatic monitoring of Asana, helps me a lot to plan my day to day.
Other benefits are that tasks are never lost, it allows managing a large workflow for the entire team. Although I have not yet tried many features of the premium version.

What do you like best about the product?
Very organized, and possibility of tagging relevant persons, and communications
What do you dislike about the product?
The app can be improved,
As well as some typing feaatures within the software maybe better.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping all parts and tasks of a project in one place, so that we don't forget of anything, and we can keep an eye on the progress made. It's also very good for file shring witing a project,.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go forward and sign up for Asana, it helped our company getting a grip on our multiple ongoing projects. It's also a exceptional tool for communicating between parties from diffrent regions for files and follow ups on projects.
Colorful, engaging, and makes completing tasks fun!
What do you like best about the product?
I LOVE the colorful view of my calendar. I can easily sort my tasks by "project" (which I use as categories because my role spans multiple departments). I can update the status of each project and share my status with my supervisor. I can also share files here and request others to complete tasks as part of a larger project. The timeline view is great when I want to see how far along I am in multiple tasks. Finally, the cutest thing happens when I complete a certain amount of tasks on time ... narwhals march across the page!!
What do you dislike about the product?
I like the timeline feature but a way to make this feature go above and beyond would be to automatically complete the status for me once the system realizes I've made it that far in a task. For instance, once I mark/label a draft contract as final, it would be great if Asana would recognize that it is a "final" rendition and mark the task as such. Even without this, I still LOVE Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to better collaborate, check the status of multiple projects all in one app (without sending emails), and track on projects year after year! Asana enables us to hold others accountable for tasks without having to be too demanding. The system tracks it for us!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to learn about each feature so you can decide which view you prefer. I love the calendar view and the timeline view, but others in my department prefer task view. Make sure you fully utilize the collaboration features because they are a game changer!
Great for teams and those less experienced with project management
What do you like best about the product?
The software is great for teams that include a wide array of career experience and hold various levels across our firm. It's userfriendliness and feature that allows for projects and subtasks makes sure that no item falls through the cracks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to dislike about this product. Hacving never used a project management tool in the past I have little to compare it to, but I also have nothing to dislike about the product. Would recommend to any person or company that is in the marker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With a lot of our client work we often have not only multiple work streams but also multiple side projects. This tool helps to make sure work stream leads are putting in place workback plans and ensures that even the smallest item doesn't fall through the cracks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just do it.
Asana review
What do you like best about the product?
With this software I love how easy to use, because nothing is better than the easy and user-friendly of use of all utilities that assist, even if they are a problem in use, we offer answers to our problems, and in addition, you can adjust anything you want and long customize, helps the user feel more convenient with the platform because it has the picture you want most.
What do you dislike about the product?
Ideally, asana should be able to create and use task models or sub-tasks within the project or the individual cards.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project control is a complex issue. Asana will make it a little easier to observe and synchronize. Once you have prepared it, you can easily work. It even synchronizes comments to GitHub, so you do not have to paste all your copies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The most powerful project management software should be Asana, but at the same time it should be relatively inexpensive and suitable for all my tasteful professionals.
