A practical project managing app
What do you like best about the product?
As a team of freelancers working together on many tasks under several big projects, it's indispensable for us to get things done soothly and efficiently as a group. The best things from my point of view are:
• Getting a daily email keeping me up to date with due tasks
• Being able to file all work tasks under a specific project and have several threads and allocate work to others
• Being able to pass task responsibilities back and forward to other members of the team
• The ability to get work signed off easily
• The ability to organise a project calendar
• Having tasks dependant on other tasks so you see what needs to be done first
• Being able to mark my holiday dates on the calendar for other co-workers to see (and work around)

What do you dislike about the product?
I found it hard to organise a project myself at first. I think Asana has become better over the years. My role is mostly as a user coming in after someone else has set up a schedule of tasks and projects so I haven't used all the software's features. I would say Trello was easier visually for me as a designer, however it didn't have the functionality we needed at the time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The organisation of our events have been simplified, all runs smoothly. Better communication all round.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you regularly work as a team with others on projects, Asana could be a valuable application.
Simple and flexible
What do you like best about the product?
I really like this project management tool. Probably my favorite feature are the subtasks. It allows you to break down the projects without taking over the main screen.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not much to be honest but other new tools like monday.com are offering more flexibility which helps when trying to bring in a whole team
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management for a small business. Just being able to manage things easily is a huge productivity boost
Beautiful for projects

It's so easy to work on a team with this software that I enjoy work now
What do you dislike about the product?
I think it's a little cluttered in terms of how different things are organized and topics are divided
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Improved team connection
Best tool for startup product teams
What do you like best about the product?
I have used Asana for multiple startups as an employee and founder. Its no debate that in all those circumstances Asana has been the difference between utter chaos and optimization.
What do you dislike about the product?
As a product/project manager who has to maintain a finger on the pulse of multiple teams its difficult to see nested subtasks when looking at timeline view.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project tracking and task management are the main problems that Asana will optimize. We also place user stories and acceptance criteria in Asana.

Great way to keep yourself organized
What do you like best about the product?
I just recently started using Asana and it provides me with a new way to keep track of tasks. A person is able to create different sets of tasks and share with different people. The tasks can also be shown on a calendar. Asana also has a timeline function, progress function, and allows your to customize the layout.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are not many things that I dislike. However, the first thing that caught my eye when I started using it was the layout of the bar on the left. I think it could be improved and allowed to be more customized. I also thing the Board could be more minimalist. I don't really like the columns and how they are displayed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is helping me to keep track of all work and personal tasks. Multiple boards can be created, so you can differentiate tasks according to their categories.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A different and modern method of approaching tasks.
Great for group study
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great for the assigning, reminding and keeping the works to update with a team. When one of my group worker completed one job I can immediately see it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing I disliked so far. Thanks for the program!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can track each of the group members activities on our work. That accelerate the process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for team work!
Outstanding organizational results
What do you like best about the product?
What I like the most is its different but effective design for working in a much more organized way compared to before. It offers a range of options to work based on the need for organization of our information, thus allowing the customization of its tab system as much as possible.
What do you dislike about the product?
This tool has made our work life much easier, we haven't had any issues so far, so I have no negative comments to add.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is an exceptional tool with incredible design, allowing us to organize everything in an original way that gives us quick access to all the information we need about tasks and projects scheduled for future dates. It has promoted punctuality in all areas because we are always correctly informed of the dates thanks to Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They should seriously consider this tool for all the benefits it can offer them. In my experience, I advise trying its free version to confirm that it is what they are looking for.
Asana is a very effective system for organizing tasks in the workplace!
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful part of Asana is that it creates deadlines for my tasks. It works across multiple users and helps unify our workplace. My supervisors in different areas of the office can assign me tasks and I do not have to worry about forgetting them because Asana keeps all of my tasks organized in one spot.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I dislike is that you can not manually add a task to your list of tasks. If I get tagged in a task, I will simply get an email about it and not be able to add it to my workspace. this sometimes allows for tasks to slip through the cracks because I either do not see it or I forget about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am solving the problem of time management because Asana allows me to visualize what tasks need to get done and by what time, so that I can effectively organize my time to get all of my work done.
