A great addition to the business
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has made it a lot easier to empower our team and eliminate the need for as much time spent on project management and planning throughout the organisation.
The team features are really great for empowering each of our departments to run their own internal projects how they want which helped for buy in as well.

What do you dislike about the product?
My main concerns are a lot of the best templating features are locked into the enterprise version, which does restrict the flexibility somewhat for our purposes. You’re also forced to pay for seats in sets of 5, and of course my team in 1 seat too many, so we pay for 4 seats we don’t use which sucks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have very diverse work across digital advertising, design, strategy, events and software development.
Asana’s rich feature set and flexibility helps us tailor different templates and structures to suit a wide variety of work functions.

Collaboration and task management
Efficient work organizational platform
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the most efficient way to delegate and organize work tasks for small businesses. It allows for different types of projects and departments to work and monitor the work that is being done. Asana was also easy to use once we began its use years ago. I like the consistency that using Asana provides regarding discussing projects and goals for management meetings and there has been a considerable improvement in many areas of our company's efficiency due to Asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downsides of using Asana is the difficulty of relocating and finding certain tasks once they are deleted. It would also be great to have a large range of color palettes to choose from regarding the type of projects.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is solving problems with work task delegation so the right projects are being worked on with the right people. Asana is solving problems with time management with the timelines set on projects and organizing what to prioritize. Asana is also solving the problem of meeting efficiency with more focused meetings with management. It is benefiting the small business we have in terms of saving time, resources, and projects focused in the right area.
Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Asana is user-friendly and easy to use with little to no training.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing that I dislike about this platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps me and my VA work on tasks and ensure that we meet the deadlines assigned. I like that I can link files from Google Drive to the various tasks for quick reference.
Effective way to organise all elements of my life
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a lifesaver for me! I have so many things going on: my own business (membership site, blog, social
media, YouTube channel). I also help to run a kids football club and am in the midst of home renovations and planning major trips abroad. Asana helps me organise every element of my life so no task (however small) is ever forgotten.

What do you dislike about the product?
I often tell Siri to add a task to asana while in the car. As I can’t assign a date I tend to check recent tasks and forget about it! Can Siri learn to add a date for the task too?
I use the My Tasks > List view every day, but it’s frustrating that the tasks within sections aren’t in chronological order by time of day they need completing. it would be great to sort these.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Have recently taken on a staff member and have easily been able to move over a lot of my repeating admin tasks to her
Highly intuitive and low effort adoption was exactly what I was looking for.
What do you like best about the product?
Extremely easy to integrate into what software we are already using. It makes a seamless tool to bring all of our software together. It creates efficiencies and allows me to see all of my teams tasks in one place. Our efficiency is through the roof and it helps relieve my teams stress and anxiety around complex projects. We use it every day and it couldn't be much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the functions could use a more obvious menu scheme.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing multiple competing priorities across a range of projects. Our work volume has increased dramatically, and our old methods of tasks management wasn't working. We all used different methods, we needed to consolidate into one format where we could see at a glance if we are on track. It dramatically cuts the number of emails and conference calls we have to generate saving us a lot of time. It also helps my more junior team members to prioritize based on impact and timelines.
Great tool for project management!
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, visually appealing, wide range of features, responsive customer support
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't found anything so far that I dislike.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is helping our organization manage our strategic plan initiative and subsequent long term objectives.
My favorite work management platform I've tried
What do you like best about the product?
The basic features are simple and that's key to getting staff to buy-in to a tool like this. It's easy to understand and creates clarity across team members on what they should be working on. Support is great as there are a number of trainings, live workshops and more you can participate in. We use it daily for all of our non-profit work.
What do you dislike about the product?
They add new functionality frequently (which is good) but the overall simplicity gets more convoluted once you start taking advantage of more features. I liked Asana when it was pretty barebones because of its simplicity and depending on the technical aptitude of your users, some may struggle. We've also become a little overzealous at times with adding too much into Asana and making it difficult to use but that is our own undoing and no fault of the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're a small team with a lot of various initiatives. Asana helps us manage timing, resources, due dates and collaborate.
Driving Productivity
What do you like best about the product?
I like the different features that interact with each other. I've used other programs such as Airtable and Notion but am drawn to Asana specifically for project work in collaborative settings due to its ease of implementation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Features that I use less are often due to a learning gap. I wish there were more learning capabilities such as live Zoom sessions to learn about each product update or free trainings from other users in my field.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Often I have trouble tracking which projects require higher level touch points. With Asana I no longer have to guess priorities and am able to share notes or comments with my team.
Such an intuitive and easy to use Project Management tool!
What do you like best about the product?
It provides various views of projects. Allows for solid reporting, and so easy to use. Implementing this tool was easy and the entire team was able to adapt to it quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes finding answers to questions or articles is can be time consuming, due to looking around.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to distribute the workload to the different team members and how to ensure we cover all the small details within all project tasks.
