Best Project and Tasks Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
There are number of project management tools implemented, developed and currently use in different industries. In Software development industry it is almost impossible to deliver a project successfully with respect to in-time, cost and required features without implementing project management tool. Asana help in this regards and provide best features in its Free version for small scale businesses and to professionals as well in Paid version. Project creation, division of tasks, assignment to resources is easy and straight forward. I like the communication on tasks between resources assigned on tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
With all its best features there are some deficiencies like it is quit expensive for small scale businesses if they want to use its enterprise level features. Task allocation and tracking is bit difficult for new users. Need better UI screens.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
When I start my professional career some years back and assigned a project to work on. I face difficulties to manage my tasks and time lines set by my team lead. Then I advised to use Asana as project and tasks management tool. I have used its free version which have almost all my required set of features to track and meet the deadlines. It solve my problem of tasks creation, assign to my juniors, track work on tasks, track work load on resources, utilize best productive hours by getting clear assessment of tasks and its deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is always useful to use some sort of project management tool either for professionals or beginners, most of the tools are complex and difficult to understand at first. Asana on other hand is quite useful and easy to use management tool for professionals and beginners / students. I strongly recommend Asana to my fellows and juniors to make there life easier.

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)

• 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

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.

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

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.
