Robust and Flexible Task Management Tool for Teams
What do you like best about the product?
One of the best things about Asana is that they are regularly updating and improving the tool. It gets better and more easy to use with each iteration. It's a great tool for team communication and collaboration. A big feature for me is the robust options for recurring tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
When I first started using Asana it felt overly complicated and a little cumbersome for our needs. It was implemented as "the" tool to use for our organization, so I had to learn to like it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana allows our team to easily communicate and collaborate. The CSV importer is great for saving a project template and then importing it when it is needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider whether you really need it. There are simpler and cheaper options available out there. I am using it because it is what our organization uses. Also, consider which options are available at different price points of Asana. They will regularly pitch you with these great new features...if you upgrade to the next level.
The Easiest Task and Project Management Tool for Teams
What do you like best about the product?
How quick and easy it is to use. Plus, Asana is continually releasing new features and updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
To get the most advanced management and admin features, you have to upgrade EVERYONE on your team to the highest-priced plan (i.e., it would be nice if different people on your team could have different subscriptions).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has been great for managing my own tasks as well as projects with multiple departments. It's especially useful since several of our team members work remote.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana's free and trial options can give you a quick feel for whether or not you like it. It works best for those with many projects or people.
I love using Asana for Business
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that I can put all my projects into Asana and be able to track everything and my clients can track everything as well. I can break things down into subtasks and even tasks for each of those subtasks, add files, screenshots if necessary, send messages, tag individuals and have clients be notified of changes in their projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have a standalone timer, you have to use a plugin so it means more logins. One of my clients has me use Toggl in order to track time and it can get confusing if projects are not categorized right.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving the issues of not staying on task and not being able to keep track of everything needing done in my consulting and virtual assistant business. I have realized that using Asana allows me to keep better track and keep both myself and my clients on task as needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend using Asana! It's free, it helps you stay on track and it helps your customers and clients to know what is happening with their projects and tasks at all times as long as you are updating those projects and tasks.
Love Asana!
What do you like best about the product?
How simple it is to delegate task and create checklists. It's a great tool when we onboard new agents
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the new update they did. It makes it a little more confusing to figure out how to write comments or descriptions. All in all... I like better than trello
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to keep tabs on checklists and see who has completed what. Great for task management and delegation
Strong platform for multiple ongoing projects.
What do you like best about the product?
Tasks. The reason I say this is because our team is always on the move preparing running errands and getting items pulled for our weekly events. This means many people running and doing multiple tasks at once and prior to us using Asama, as you can imagine, we were flooding a group text thread so it was mismanaged and not ideal for streamlining.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our team at XO has only been using Asana for specific tasks (for now) like who's pulling items at storage, who's designing flowers and so on. We know have a better idea of what our day looks like so at this point I don't have any constructive feedback for this app at this time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're trying to figure out if Asana should be sued as a daily communication platform, in replacement of others ex. (Gsuite, Connectteam, SMS, ext..)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure it's the right platform for your team. We like the idea of posting multiple tasks (Timelines) so that we all know where we stand on completing things. It takes the concern away from our boss so she can focus on growing her company.
Asana is a powerful tool in project management.
What do you like best about the product?
The best part of Asana is being able to visually arrange and sort your tasks. Priorities are constantly changing and with Asana is it easy to manage.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest downside is that other team members can add tasks to your to-do list without notice or any sort of initiation. One morning you can just log in and see that someone has assigned you 40 things to do without any preliminary conversation or explanation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem Asana solves is holding everyone accountable for when projects are initiated and when they need to be completed.
Extremely Helpful Tool!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy it is to stay organized. In my role, I have many different assignments and projects going on at once and it is vital for me to stay organized. Before I would have to keep an inefficient word doc as a to-do list. But now I can have all my to-dos neatly placed in one tool and I can assign tasks to myself so I never miss a deadline!
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is pretty user-friendly and has a great interface. There are a few things I haven't yet figured out how to set up but so far no real complaints about this tool!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to get my work done on time and not skip a beat, I don't have to worry about missing deadlines or forgetting when something is due because everything I need lives in Asana.
Powerful, user friendly project management
What do you like best about the product?
Balancing tasks between several team members in various locations can be challenging. Using Asana as a single source of task and project management has given us transparency across the board.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no dislikes. It's been an easy to use tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management is difficult. Managing tasks to meet deadlines has been simplified through our use of Asana.
Great for Projects
What do you like best about the product?
I like Asana because I'm able to complete and assign tasks on a project in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, honestly everything is great with Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's made completing projects with 2 or more users much easier.
Asana is easy to use but also a lot of extra perks
What do you like best about the product?
Board view for sprints (Kanban board for scrum-style agile project mgmt)
What do you dislike about the product?
Cleaning up Asana - when a large team has too many due dates all over the place, clean up can be annoying
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management. Remote work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try both boards and lists. Use visuals.
