A powerful system but at a cost
What do you like best about the product?
There are many features available but that comes at a cost. The ability to collaborate is high but only if you buy in at the enterprise level.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost with a large organization can be prohibitive. The lack of a chat feature is also a drawback
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration and tracking of projects
Review of Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I like that everyone on the team can update their tasks so that everyone knows what each person is doing that week and how much bandwidth they may have(if any) to help on something else
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is kind of a pain in the butt...I always have to click around so many times before my cursor is where I want it to be because its so glitchy. I always start typing a task and instead of the letters appearing where my cursor clicked they appear on some random line. I have to play with it a lot to get it to do what I want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows for project management where everyone is on the same page and doesnt have to individually tell the other members what they are up to each week. It allows for focus on risks and issues which is important to any successful project
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana has less issues when used in google chrome but my company has all their stuff set up for explorer
Easy & Robust
What do you like best about the product?
I love the collaborative features that are built in, even within the free version.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can get a little complicated with how deep subtasks can get. It also would be nice to receive email notifications for Individual tasks that come due.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management. Team collaboration.
Very good for communication in professional way

In that we can add task only one user not more than one .not easy to switching views and absence time tracking. Also available some limited tasks.

Using asana I communicate with other user as well as manage my task list so easily can use and track task also assign the task to my self own. So it's very nice experience for me.
Incredibly seamless software for assigning tasks for a large team
What do you like best about the product?
I think that the way Asana integrates with slack and email is the most important component.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think that the app is as easy to use as the website.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest problem that is solved for me is that I can see what my team has accomplished each day. No more bugging them for status updates! No more confusion about who is doing what!
Incredibly Customizable
What do you like best about the product?
Love that you can create draggable cards - can basically create a sprint board for projects. Tasks can be added to multiple projects and it's easy to create a new task and assign it to someone.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think without a clear team structure, it can be easy to get lost in the program or not be aware of the full extent of possibility in the program. I still feel like I need to do some additional research to really begin utilizing this tool to its full potential.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Provides an all-up view of project progress (tasks and milestones). Forms also provide an easy way to track bugs and assign resolution to a particular team member.
Easy to use and simple to understand
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it has a message board quality to it where you can directly ask questions about an assignment and have them answered in the same place.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to get used to after using Trello or other CMSs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Ease of communication with teammates over shared projects and assignments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure all entries are very detailed to avoid confusion when it comes to projects and assignments within your team.
Powerful tool, extremely capable, somewhat of a learning curve
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great for managing complex projects with many interconnected parts. I really like how each task and sub task can be assigned to a particular person (and subtasks can be assigned to different people than the larger overall task) and this data is then funneled to each individuals list of tasks to accomplish.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only difficulty I've experienced is that folks who are older and slightly less technologically adventurous are intimidated by the user interface. There are a lot of features (which to be clear is very beneficial) but that can make some folks nervous about learning how all of the features work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is solving the problem of complex project management. It helps me as an individual understand and track my tasks and helps the team understand where projects are at and who's responsible for what.
Easy to use but sometimes too basic
What do you like best about the product?
I like the feeling of checking something off of my list which is what asana has. I like the ability to add tasks and share files easily without having to use Dropbox. I was super excited to see the new hire checklist option was added in. It's been super helpful for me since I don't have to go look for each of the documents.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish asana had a better calendar set up that looked more like a timeline I could use for my team to understand how long we had on specific projects rather then just an end date.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Nothing too big problem wise. I like being able to nudge my team in the right direction without seeming to micromanage
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make a timeline calendar set up
Great for project management!
What do you like best about the product?
I am able to see all of my upcoming projects and tasks and can work collaboratively with my team to execute them. Keeps all of my tasks in order and in a nice, organized view.
What do you dislike about the product?
The calendar view can be a bit cluttered, wish there were some more customizable options.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Never lose track of a project and can communicate with team members on separate projects in an organized way on one platform.
