Helpful tool for tracking action items
What do you like best about the product?
In Asana you can assign tasks and action items to multiple people after meetings. If assigned a task, Asana will remind you to complete the task by its due date. Asana ensures that no one forgets to complete a task and keep moving projects forward.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish you could assign one task to multiple people. For now, you can only assign to one person, then add followers to that. It would be nice to hold multiple people accountable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are significantly reducing people forgetting to complete action items. Also, we have an audit trail of tasks and sales pipelines through our historical Asana records.
Solid workflow tool but you need to take time to learn the best way to use it
What do you like best about the product?
Boards, list and calendar - If you have a very specific process you need to automate like the month-end close process for accountants, I recommend a solution like FloQast made for this process.
With this said, for sales, marketing and partnerships Asana can be a solid tool for keeping track of your to do list. I've had trouble adopting but took some time to watch videos and it's getting better for me.

What do you dislike about the product?
It can be tricky to find projects or stay true to a to-do list. Figuring out how to structure projects or tasks is a learning curve but not rocket science. Watch a youtube video and spend time in app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Trying to build the structure around our partner program. Recurring tasks is a nice way to ensure all of my partners receive quarterly/monthly/weekly correspondence etc..
Recommendations to others considering the product:
spend time in app, watch youtube videos
Asana - good for agendas and meetings
What do you like best about the product?
It's shareable to the whole company, and easy to find things via search.
What do you dislike about the product?
It seems hard to copy things to another one, and keep the sharing private. I can't quite figure out templates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Duplicating projects and deleting the people who are on the old one, and updating the new one
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take the time to learn how to use the functionality via the pop-ups and then you will be able to leverage the whole product a bit more
Asana has been great!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has helped my small business begin to form the proper processes we need to work seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are limitations to the free version. Then, customizing isn't the easiest either.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to create boards for each client we serve and stay on track. Tasks can be assigned to specific employees with deadlines, too!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take time to figure out all the functions you'll need to organize your business. See if the free version can accommodate all of those options. If not, take a very close look at the paid options. I found that the paid version didn't quite meet my expectations and downgraded.
An effective tool for project and task management

Asana is user friendly and has a variety of advanced features, which makes it a good choice for project and task management.

As with any project management / task management software, it's all too easy to create a clutter of tasks and projects. That said, that's actually a user-related issue rather than a defect of the software.

Asana has been a good place to keep track of all my online courses and course progress. It works well to organize and store information.

Looking at all the tasks assigned to me in one place, with due dates and everything.

Finding the projects assigned to me takes a bunch of clicks, and then once you click on it all you see is a description and a bunch of comments and a few attached files with no sequence, but there's no context of where the task is within the project.

My tasks can have a timeline, and I can prioritize which projects to work on first based upon their deadlines.

Asana sends too many emails. I don’t suffer from email overload or they simply get so many emails that a few tens of emails more won’t make a difference.
it’s very difficult to set up a repeatable project on Asana.
