Best PM software in the market!!!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great tool for project management at all levels. It helps integrate and coordinate communication flows between people, processes, and departments so that everyone knows what they are supposed to do.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that there are some things like subtasks that seem a little disorganized on list view
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly putting processes into a platform that is accessible by any stakeholder in the company. It gives people tasks and ownership.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at the help docs when doubts on implementing they have all the best use cases explained in high level of detail.
Asana is helpful but could be better
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has a very user friendly UI, and you can get your team setup within minutes. There is no in-depth training required to be able to use the program, however there is a wide range of functionality that can be used to further optimise your teams performance.
What do you dislike about the product?
Once a task has been edited or a step completed there is a convoluted process to retrace the step. As an example if the step has been marked completed by the team member it is difficult for a team leader to mark that specific task back to "In process".
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I used Asana whilst working for a news website and it allowed me to work on a few different article series at the same time and keep track of my progress on each article written within different departments.
Easy to use system to stay organized in tasks
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use and clearly displays tasks that need to be done. Collobarotation with teammates is simple and it is helpful to have an area to leave comments or feedback.
What do you dislike about the product?
If an item does not have a deadline set it is not difficult for it be hidden as it sits off the screen if you do not scroll down.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps stay on task and show you what other team members are working on so you can be proactive in helping them stay on time if you know they will need your help.
Good project management software
What do you like best about the product?
Pretty easy to learn and use. I like that I can assign task to team members with due date along with notes to the team. I also like that you can create multiple projects and only assign the people to them that are involved with that project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sections are great for splitting up different stages of a project, but once you complete the tasks, you can't clear the section without deleting what tasks were associated with it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
great for working with clients - we're able to have a central spot for project management.
Asana transformed the effectiveness of our team's meetings
What do you like best about the product?
We love being able to track our program's long-term vision and goals, while also tracking our effectiveness through short-term tasks and projects. We made a rule that all communication within our department should take place within Asana and Outlook should only be used for contacting external stakeholders. By implementing these processes, we are able to find and engage with all department conversations more effectively. Much of what would take up our time during meetings can be quickly decided using the comments and updates features of tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the most helpful features in the "Business" pricing level of is "Portfolio" where a director or supervisor could gauge the health of all projects in one place. We only pay for "Premium" and can't justify more than doubling our cost for that one feature. Better integration of Microsoft Outlook calendars would be a wonderful value add. It would be awesome if the calendar views of Asana would sync with our Outlook calendars.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As mentioned, Asana has transformed our meetings. In the past, we would write down meeting items, fail to create action items, and would inevitably talk about the same ideas and needs week after week after week without any real progress. Asana is the tool we needed to track meeting agendas, have effective conversations, then track actionable items between meetings. We've even experienced weeks where we cancel meetings because all agenda items have been solved within the conversations taking place in Asana. We are beginning to track projects from start to finish and this has helped us ensure that all actionable items fit within the vision of the projects. Asana has focused and connected our team in the age of remote work.
"The most practical and modern way of working together"
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an excellent online tool that connects the entire work team in real time, allowing communication, organization and planning to successfully complete the projects in question. Asana is very simple and easy to use, each project has a roadmap. Each task can have subtasks, as well as an assignee, due date, attachments, comments, and tags. These tasks and subtasks are used to track work. (Completely beneficial)
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is incredible and is the right tool to establish organized team work flows, in order to meet the proposed goals and reach the desired objectives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
- Asana is suitable for both long-term and short-term projects, where completions can be archived for future use.
- Asana allows me to know the status of tasks and projects in real time, as well as follow the progress of the tasks that each member is working on.
- It allows creating, assigning and commenting on tasks with ease to keep track of what is being done.
- Be able to work as a team visually regardless of my physical location.
- Allows synchronization with Gmail and Outlook.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its operation is really simple, this being one of the keys to success. You don't need previous training to start enjoying the advantages that this tool offers. Its interface is very intuitive and works perfectly for efficient management.
Great tool for managing tasks across teams
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to see a calendared view of team tasks
What do you dislike about the product?
The only issues I've had so far is that finding where/how to make tasks recurring is not immediately obvious. Once the option is found, setting a task to recurring after it has already been completed does nothing. A user has to mark the task not complete and then mark it complete again. This causes issues with reviewing, but is a one-time issue per task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is helping the team manage a process with a lot of time-sensitive tasks and helping managers stay on top of issues.
The best project management and collaboration software there is.
What do you like best about the product?
Literally, all of it. I've been using Asana for 5 years and I'm a certified pro, so...really, everything. I'd say transparency is the key term I use when testifying.
What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to realize all of the many features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Transparency again, setting deadlines and having a central place to review the status of work, agreed upon deadlines and docs, without bugging someone.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Think of how you'd ideally like to manage project; Asana can probably do it.
Great visualisation tool
What do you like best about the product?
Fluidity of timelines & dependency tracking, it allows us to see in real time how things are planning out
It also allows us to see the cause and effect of moving work based on priority
It also allows us to see the cause and effect of moving work based on priority
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting the security on each project is more complicated than it should be.
At the start we made project locked down but didn't realise that they weren't!
Also adding people to tasks gives them visibility over the whole project, sometimes that's not required

We are using it across departments for visibility and project tracking
The best task and project management tool on the market!
What do you like best about the product?
It's versatile, easy to use, aesthetically pleasing, it allows you to create, organize and manage multiple projects at once and easily see how you are progressing with each. I love that you basically have an automated to-do list every day and you just need to think about execution.
What do you dislike about the product?
The mobile app is not as easy to use and complete, it can be improved, especially the interface.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I manage my online coaching business, my personal projects and I assist my clients on their projects. With Asana you can have a lot on your plate and feel calm and in control because everything is so clean and clear.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The set up might be intimidating but it's well worth the time and effort.
Use it for all your projects without worrying about the nature of the projects, it works for any kind of work.
Use the list view for more strategic projects and the board view for more creating projects.
