need to improve UI
Great experience
What do you like best about the product?
Very user friendly interface. Is really great for collaborations too.
What do you dislike about the product?
They moved the conversations tab and now it's an extra click away. It is nit picking I know.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Multiple team members jumping in and out of projects with ease. Things are not falling through the cracks like they used to.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Move the conversation bar in projects back into the main tab so that I dont have to click another button to get there. Time is money!
I've used many task management softwares but Asana is the best by far
What do you like best about the product?
Compared to similar softwares, Asanas user interface is beautiful and clean. The way the information is organized makes it super easy to find anything you're looking for. Very intuitive for users to navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the things that I get frustrated with are because of my lack of knowledge on how to do things. I havent explored the support page but maybe they could make onboarding a bit more of a focus. I would also like a timer for projects to be included.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like the scheduling tool the've added that saves my team a step from having to use Sheets or Excel.
Great for small teams
What do you like best about the product?
I haven't used Asana in years but my new team recently implemented it. I gotta say, I don't hate it. It's got a really nice interface and it's user-friendly for those who have used similar project management tools. Everything is nice and organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bummer that there's no ability to templatize subtasks (for instance, I have to re-write subtasks for every blog post card I make). In addition, I hate that you can't switch the view on the boards—if you start a project with the kanban view, that's what you're stuck with. No switching to timeline, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love the forms function! It's been super nice to move my "case studies" Google Form over to Asana. This way, when one of my team members requests a case study, all they need to do is fill out the form and a task is automatically created and assigned to me from the form. Super rad.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's great for smaller teams, but not super awesome for those who are looking for things to be templatized.
a simple yet powerful Todo list
What do you like best about the product?
Its simplicity and easy to use. Yet you can do many things with it. It has many keyboard shortcuts that makes things faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
It doesn't have a template for kanban or scrum. Maybe it is product differentiation from Jira or Trello.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is easy to assign task, measure progress and keep tracks of everything.
Love this program for organizing everything, BUT you will need someone to show you how to use it!
What do you like best about the product?
Amazing app that puts everything in one place! Love that there is a desktop and mobile version to help create projects, list, assign, and keep track of the productivity for each project. I can have multiple users per project, allow communication logs between users, checklists and more! I also love the multiple viewings/layouts to choose from per project.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is so in depth and has so many wonderful tools, that it took me meeting with someone who has used it for over a year to really show all the program has to offer!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows all our projects to be in one place and keep everything organized and on time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get it, find someone to help teach you, and boom!
Asana Task Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Asana categorizes and creates task lists. There's also a great interdependency feature where one task can trigger another upon completion. It also does a very good job at providing separate views for incomplete and completed tasks. Reports and list generation is also easy to customize in the application using filters.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the calendar and timeline views. There doesn't seem to be an easy way to overlap these views with multiple projects. There should be a way to choose and select which projects you need to view simultaneously. The calendar and timeline views should also have more ways to create custom views based on other fields in the application. Finally there's no way to mark percentage of completion on tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've solved project managing and assigning ownership of tasks with due dates. It's also made communication more seamless. When a user makes updates to a task in Asana, it automatically triggers an email to the followers of that task. It's also a great way of storing conversations, notes, and history on attributed to any task rather thatn having to search through emails.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a great way to collaborate and assign tasks, but is limited in providing a high level view of all projects. I would recommend using Asana to track details. Asana should look into improving their timeline view or consider incorporating gant charts. Currently we're using SmartSheets to view overlapping project timelines, but keeping individual task management in Asana.
Task Management, confusing at times
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the organizational features of asana, from multiple boards to calendars and timelines for projects. It makes it simple to see your calendar of tasks to be done for the day.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana can be very confusing at times when you have a lot of things going on at once. Multiple boards can be beneficial, but projects can get lost at times with multiple notifications coming in.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has made it easy to put all projects in one place and keep track of what you need, but at the same time it has some downsides I can't get over.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It can be very confusing and frustrating for employees
Asana conveniently stores all of our work activities into one web-based platform
What do you like best about the product?
There are many great organizational sections that help us to compartmentalize all the different aspects of our group projects. We can attach many different users to one project and update all the information live so that people will know all the latest information and have the latest resources to move forward with their own tasks. The support team at Asana helps us to fill in the blanks whenever we are missing information about the functionality of the software and can't figure it out how to operate some features on their website.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think that I'd like to have more customization options when it comes to displaying our project information and due dates. Though there are many different ways we can activate preset structures for our projects, I feel like it'd be more productive if we could eliminate some sections and only focus on the things that are most meaningful to our particular project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is great for staying on track and understanding what is due in the future for everyone involved in a project. We don't have to spend as much time having meetings and getting everyone up to date on information. We can all just check into our Asana accounts to see the latest information and access the current project materials. We don't even have to be in the same vicinity in order to meet and collaborate on project activities.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana has a great visual interface and isn't too difficult to use, so I would recommend using it as a premium collaboration software. If your budget is limited, I would probably explore one of the many other lower-cost options since many of these types of work productivity software have the same features these days.
