The best for managing workflow and times
What do you like best about the product?
The possibility to manage your own workload and others. It gives visibility of "The big picture" to you and your superiors. Things that are not clear for them such as amount of work, times and priorities. The communication improved a lot since we started usin asana. For me, the real value lays in being able to organize my everyday tasks and tag them in different projects. The calendar visibility is one of it's best tools, you can drag and drop as needed any task you are working on, making it easy to change the date of a task. We tried with many different softwares before: Basecamp, Trello, etc; but none of them were as full and satisfying. Features like time tracking, customizable permissions, risk management, team collaboration and much more.
What do you dislike about the product?
You are not able to assign tasks and tag them in other boards without appearing on them. This was the most problematic tool to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Times and workload are much more visible. Good organization.Conectivity with other applications and softwares.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Free trial is a good way to know if Asana is for you. Use it during a week and you'll see the value of it.
The Best Project Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is our favourite project management tool that helps our team to manage projects easily. The major reason why we love Asana over similar tools is it is absolutely free to use for up to 15 members. We can create tasks and Asana offers list view, board view, calendar view, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana's Android App is not easy to use as it's web view. Also, Asana doesn't make a native desktop app for Windows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If you are a small team and you are looking for free project management tools with excellent features, you can use Asana. Protecting the data you trust is Asana's one of the important priority so you won't need to worry about your privacy.
Gets the work done, manages the team, but there's just something missing...
What do you like best about the product?
Asana excels in laying out projects, tasks, and shows the info that the teams needs right in front of their own dashboards. A very useful feature especially if you have a huge team to manage.
Asana basically micro-manages the whole team for you. You can set it up so that there's a hierarchy that passes tasks along to those who need to do it... and at the same time, these can easily be monitored by people who need to know when these certain tasks are done.
The best thing I can probably say is that Asana has (sort of) a messaging center within the platform although, it still needs a lot of work, the main focus of Asana is task/team management.

What do you dislike about the product?
The messaging platform within Asana isn't the best... and it's not real time so you need to refresh your browser (not sure if they updated this but if they did, kudos to Asana). Aside from that, Asana does what it does best and that's pretty much the important thing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A lot of task management is compiled and updated easier because of Asana. While there are a lot of other competing software that can match what Asana does, Asana can do it seamlessly in their system. Something great about Asana is that you can easily set who can see which tasks, who can update or comment on a project, and who can assign or complete various steps needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While there is a learning curve if you want to fully utilize everything Asana has to offer, it's still easy enough to hop into if you're looking to start out with a couple of projects. The best part about Asana is that you can get into it slowly until you master every aspect and option there is.
A really great option for medium to large teams with a handful of projects.

Asana is easy to use and user friendly. I will recommend Asana to everyone.
What do you like best about the product?
I was able to learn Asana really quickly and manage my work and time effectively. Asana has enabled to streamline my daily activities and help me save a lot of time. The solutions enable me to tag team members and review the project progress. Asana offers a free trial to users that enable them to review capabilities of it and review whether the application meets their needs. I can track all completed projects and share the progress with my manager. This helps us streamline our monthly schedules and plan better. Further, we can keep track on all the pending projects of the team and take timely action to reduce missed deadlines.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would Asana to offer additional integrations and APIs to help us connect with other applications. Pricing can be lowered for larger teams and they can provide training modules for easy onboarding on new joiners.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has definitely helped in saving time and collaborate easily with my team members. Also, we are able to reduce the number of project management solutions to Asana only which is helping us save top dollars. Asana enables the team to keep track of their projects and share the progress with the managers. This helps managers to provide timely feedback and keep clients happy. We don't have to manually create Gantt charts to keep track of projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is one of the most popular and most trusted applications for collaboration.
Easy to use and free
What do you like best about the product?
It helps me keep track of everything I need to pay attention to in my business!
What do you dislike about the product?
It's free so I don't see any downsides. There are plans for larger teams where you pay, but most of it is completely free, and does everything you could want.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are many aspects of my business I could have forgotten about without Asana. Things like getting testimonials...little admin things which keep things ticking over.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's free, and super useful if you forget little tasks...you can't go wrong!
Asana works best for the project managing side
What do you like best about the product?
Looking at all the tasks assigned to me in one place, with due dates and everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Finding the projects assigned to me takes a bunch of clicks, and then once you click on it all you see is a description and a bunch of comments and a few attached files with no sequence, but there's no context of where the task is within the project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My tasks can have a timeline, and I can prioritize which projects to work on first based upon their deadlines.
Great product.
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use, really accessible for remote workers and the perfect project management tool.You can assign/delegate tasks and keep the ball rolling.
What do you dislike about the product?
My least favorite feature is that when a task is completed it disappears from everyone's view and you have to search for it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Overall I think this is a great platform to use to track team progress.

What do you dislike about the product?
I disliked the fact that you were able to continuously push agenda items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The only problems that I'm having with Asana is that the desktop version tends to log you out when you are idle for too long.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be sure to hold yourself accountable to your deadline as it easy to manipulate and push your set deadlines.

Asana is a strong project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
The best part is the clean and easy-to-use user interface. The software is pretty intuitive and doesn't require much learning to start using it effectively.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is difficult to customize and tailor Asana to do exactly what you would like. Often times, I've had to surrender to Asana's way of organizing information.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly task multi-project task management. It is a great tool that also has strong mobile compatibility.
