It's great for teams that have several steps for process
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can organize tasks and assign new tasks to coworkers. It was a good way to track other's progress.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't seem to be as intuitive as I had originally thought
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When there are tasks that take a long time to complete having the tasks spread out and completion reminders is helpful, but we found that it wasn't the best fit for our team. When using it new tasks would come up and it just wasn't the best form of communication for us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Educate yourself on how to use it first. We didn't do a lot of research before using it and I'm sure that we missed out on some of the better features of Asana out of ignorance

A great project management software
What do you like best about the product?
There are numerous tools developed, applied and currently used in various industries for project management. It is nearly impossible to effectively execute a project without the introduction of project management resources in the software development industry with regards to run-time, costs and required features. Asana supports and provides best features for small businesses and for professionals as well as for casual users in its Free version. It's easy and simple to set up a project, separate tasks, delegate resources. I appreciate the interaction between task-assigned resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some shortcomings with all its best features as it is expensive for small companies if they want to take advantage of their business level features. The allocation of roles and reporting for new users is bit difficult. They require better displays for user interfaces.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I began my professional career back a couple of years and assigned to work on a project. I'm having trouble handling my assignments and time lines set by my team leader. Instead I proposed using Asana as a project management system and task management software. I used its free version to track and reach the deadlines with almost all my needed set of features. This solves my problem of generating assignments, assigning them to my juniors, tracking work on projects, tracking work load on resources, using the best productive hours by having a straightforward assessment of tasks and their deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Using some kind of project management system for experts and students is always helpful, most of the methods are at first complicated and hard to understand. Asana, on the other side, is very helpful and simple for practitioners or beginners / students to use management tool. To make life easier there, I strongly recommend Asana to my fellows and juniors.
Great Product for a Dynamic Team
What do you like best about the product?
This product made it extremely easy to create, assign, and track tasks across my team. In addition, the dashboards are great looking and easy to use. Asana has implemented a drag and drop type feature which make it extremely easy to see who is doing what and change due dates and timelines. They also have great reporting features that allows you to see your whole team and workload at one view. My team also really enjoyed using the app along side the desktop version. The additional features you get on the paid version is worth it!
What do you dislike about the product?
There really was no complaint with this software. I was looking for a more simple solution to assign and manage tasks and this did exactly that without over complicating things.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Work load management for a tea of 8 employees working across different areas.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There are some additional great benefits with the upgraded version. I was able to see where all our projects were, as well as when assignments were completed and I needed to review. Also used for feedback after review.
Great software for more accountability
What do you like best about the product?
The communication at work it’s easier with Asana. Also it makes our team goals more clear. Overall, Asana has a number of plugins that let you modify your projects to cater to your needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana only allows you to assign project tasks to one person. This may not be a big issue for your team, but if you know you’re going to want multiple people to potentially work on one task, this is quite challengingz
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes it so much easier to meet deadlines.
Nevermore without
What do you like best about the product?
Asana helps my company to organize all project (short and long). Since we have been using Asana, the way we work has changed ... everything is more organized. The workflow is fluid, without the need for many meetings or chats. I also appreciate the fact that the software is integrated with Tmetric, which we use to calculate the time spent on tasks and projects.
All the people who work in the company use Asana. Today we have opened at least 50 projects and 1000 tasks, and thanks to Asana we do not panic. We use a lot of deadline management, tags and comments (which have replaced e-mail communications).
In the past we started to develop our own project management system, but in the end we gave up because the cost of Asana is not excessive, and internal development would have been more expensive. After a first period in which we used the free version, we switched to a pay plan.
The Portfolio function (to monitor the progress of all company projects), which is not included in my current subscription, seems very useful. Maybe I'll upgrade in the future.

What do you dislike about the product?
I do not report any particular problem. I'm happy with the service.
I would like to be able to give customers read-only access.

Manage Team Work Online
What do you like best about the product?
Asana helps manage all project work very easily in few clicks, If you're a manager, track the progress of each individual employee and project, follow up, give feedback. If you're a team member, coordinate with your entire team online. And that too with a sleek and easy User interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
Need to fine tune and improve their notification systems a bit. Sending email reminders of upcoming deadlines isn't the most sophisticated way.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Entire project management is now off the whiteboard, excel gantt charts and onto Asana. Tasks, sub tasks ,colleagues working along on tasks. It is all online. Separate message thread on each task.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a must try. It can really help in managing projects. It even has a cost free version.
