Recommendations to others considering the product:
Helpful for project management & completing tasks
Good tool for keeping teams organized
What do you like best about the product?
It’s really helped our work team get more organized and has a lot of options for personalization flexibility. Also seems like they are consistently working to make upgrades and solve functionality issues.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are a few things that don’t work well like exporting and printing your to-do lists—it isn’t user friendly because their philosophy is that it should all be done digitally but some of us like to still have hard copies for meetings.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting everything we are doing as a team organized and listed in know place and being able to get updates there rather than interrupt one another as much.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is one of the best of its kind out there
Perfect addition to Slack
What do you like best about the product?
I was looking for a way to quickly assign tasks to the team within the Slack space. This was an awesome option! Once we figured out how to Lync everything and everyone up (lots of testing) it works fabulous!
What do you dislike about the product?
Not the easiest to set up. I wish it had more instructions on how to Lync everyone etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Quickly able to assign a task that steams from our daily project meetings
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Create test cases when you set up Asana, with one colleague to test how it works, notifications you get etc. Before rolling it out to the rest of the team.
Sharing lists
What do you like best about the product?
Getting reminder, being able to share the tasks with other team members and able to add comments and details on tasks
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface seems a little outdated not so modern and updated
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Unless you click you won't see task details
Asana changed my life!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana allows me to keep track of not only my team but more importantly myself! It feels so good to check off tasks and to see my team do so as well, Milestones give an even nicer feeling knowing that a project is coming together is the greatest feeling. Milestone after milestone, Asana is my favorite management tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly can't think of anything I dislike about Asana. It does everything I could hope for, I never have to worry about keeping track of my tasks and when I assign someone a task I know they can access it and comment on it to get the information they need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has created a more user friendly space for myself and my team to organize and assign tasks and projects. Tasks are easy to assign and complete and the comment feature allows us to discuss the tasks and be sure we are all on the same page. We also use Asana to keep track of everyone's daily schedule, for example What did you get done yesterday, what is on your plate today, do you need help, etc...
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Asana, it's a no brainer, seriously it has changed the way my team and I complete projects. Asana keeps us in order and makes us more productive and efficient with our time. I never have to think about what needs to be done, I just open up Asana and look at my tasks. Just use it trust me you'll love it.
Project Management for detectives
What do you like best about the product?
Project sub tasks and dependency
Ability to look at all on calendar
Ability to look at all on calendar
What do you dislike about the product?
Searching for all the features, non intuitive menus, inability for multiple ppl to own a project
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team tasks and deadlines management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a good place to track all of your projects for the most part but be sure to watch all of the tutorials and do a lot of examples as there are a lot of features that aren't all that intuitive
Good for task managing across a team
What do you like best about the product?
It organized and prioritize tasks for my team, everyone could see what needed to be done and in how much time
What do you dislike about the product?
There are other apps that have similar functions such as slack, it’s hard to justify using several apps when one can do all the jobs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It streamlines tasks and for that I really like it. It’s easy to use and understand, I’ve not had any issues with team members not understanding how it works.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Terrific for task managing with a team.
Great individually, almost too powerful for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great for those who use Getting Things Done as a task management methodology. It's also opened up to newer methods such as Kanban.
What do you dislike about the product?
In recent months they've also added in other methods but at the expense of simplicity - it's now harder for new users to just get stuck in. It's also missing one feature from Nirvana - being able to tag a task as 'waiting for' someone else, for when you retain responsibility for a task but are not the next person to act upon it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is my offboard brain - I literally couldn't work without it. It helps me coordinate, prioritise and control my work day.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The free trial allows a good roam around the feature set, but you need to set up at least one other user before you can try it 'for real'. Sharing tasks, notes etc with another user is where Asana shines.
Great tool for project management
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a cost effective platform with a very supportive surface for project management. Projects and departments are easy to handle and set up. Although it lacks certain useful features provided by other software for task management such as JIRA. Asana has a really good optical look and is very well constructed. This works in an easily understandable manner to organize programs, timetables, and assign activities. It offers a good version of the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has informal interface and lacks certain reporting features. You can't switch between Kanban and regular view after you've created a project. It's somewhat pricey and may deter smaller enterprises.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps me organize my team and track projects efficiently. It is a very fun, immersive application that motivates the users in a timely manner to complete tasks. Some software may jeopardize the design of an easy-to-use interface, while others may sacrifice the elegance of their app to look vibrant and new. Asana is doing both! Our team makes regular use of Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a nice project management tool and you should give it a try.
Good product, roadmap a little unclear
What do you like best about the product?
simple to learn and use (relatively easy to train others), effective task management. User Interface is good, and generally reliable. Any downtime is short lived, and we've never lost any data, or had any security concerns.
What do you dislike about the product?
visible updates/changes too regular, sometimes remove features from my priceplan, try and push me to upgrade too regularly (in my opinion).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
managing complex projects with many tasks to keep track of. Easily categorise tasks, and assign them to other users. Facilitates the design and implementation of simple workflows
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be careful of making extensive use of extraneous features (for example, tags), as they can seemingly be sidelined without much notice.
