The ability to collaborate.
The best project management software I have used
What do you like best about the product?
Great organization and structuring is very flexible. It's very easy to create dependence and flows for repetitive projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
The flexibility of the system means you have to know and understand it before you get too deep. It's very easy to use Asana in a crappy way. But if you are smart and invest the time, it is awesome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management across multiple teams for all areas of a business. Very easy to have others follow and bring folks into a task mid-project.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Great for task management!
What do you like best about the product?
When I used Asana, it was great for managing tasks and automated processes. It gave me a clear view of where each project was at. My favorite view was the board view, it's just how my brain works. I absolutely loved that I could add subtasks inside of each task but my favorite thing was having a template created and being able to implement a more automated system within my projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't like that I couldn't see all the projects on one dashboard (or at least I couldn't find it). I wish the board view was more condensed. I didn't like that I had to scroll really far over to be able to see where the end of my project was at.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to finally see what part of the process each client was in. I set it up so I could manage branding projects. I loved that I could see a lot of different views but also check off a whole chunk of the project easily. This made it much more efficient to work in.
Asana is our go to CMS and PMS
What do you like best about the product?
We use Asana for its versatility and ease of use. Features we use daily include notifications, collaboration, file sharing and management. We integrate is with Slack for added efficiency.
What do you dislike about the product?
We do not have any significant dislikes. Asana has done a good job of learning from previous CMS systems and creating a very user friendly, comprehensive platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Client and project management are the key features our business needs to function well. Asana provides that for us. Retaining historical activities helps a lot. We have clients that stay with us for years, and having the archived ability to review prior projects is very helpful.
A great tool!
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that you can see your to-do list in different views: list, calendar, Gantt chart. You can also assign tasks and provide due dates, along with a description and any relevant reference documents. I also love that you can chat with your team directly within a task, so all the information you need for a specific project is in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I wish Asana would have a little more flexibility/editing available because it's currently a fairly rigid structure that doesn't necessarily lend itself to more complicated projects without spending a lot of time finding a workaround.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is great for project management and truly staying on top of your tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great tool for keeping track of your to-do list and assigning tasks to your team members. I do recommend getting 100% buy-in from everyone at your company because otherwise, it won't work well.
Excellent business communication and planning tool for teams
What do you like best about the product?
1)The ease of use
2) It is super intuitive and self-explanatory
3) The breakdown of each task into even smaller sub-tasks makes the individual task clear
4) So much better than sending to and fro 100 emails on one task. Here we can chat on each granule task similar to IM
5) It is free if the team size is small
6) options to see what your other team members are up to and what cool projects they are working on

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing, in particular, to dislike but you cannot have bigger teams on Asana - unless you buy the pro version for 10 dollars a person per month. Another issue I faced was - it is easy for someone to get lost and miss important updates on Asana as the emails and updates sometimes are not catchy enough. It is also less recommended for super complex projects that require extra technical communication.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used asana to stay up to date with my team project and my personal tasks at hand for the same. It helps me get organized. I just start off with minimal subtasks and before I know my main task for the day is completed. Also, I find it saves up so much time writing emails on the issues and doubts faced. I can simply put them down in Asana pane, and get a reply almost like Skype IM.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is brilliant if you team size is small. The ease of use and intuitive interface is a pure winner. But if you are a bigger team then you have to pay 10 dollars a person per month. Here if you feel its unnecessary expenditure you can check new upcoming similar tools like Monday.com and see what fits you the best.
Like it, but a little hard for users.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of completing tasks and receiving alerts when you have new messages, tasks, or items in your inbox.
What do you dislike about the product?
Too difficult to understand for some things. We work in a lot of teams, where we need two or more people cc'd in an alert or a task. It is to difficult if you are trying to send a task to more than one person.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communicating with co-workers is easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look into learning all functionality before fully implementing.
Productivity
What do you like best about the product?
The functionality of the app and its ability to get everyone on the same track.
What do you dislike about the product?
The user interface and responsiveness could be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently, I'm working on a project with others spread across the entire state. It helps us keep accurate timeline data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For milestones and tasks, this is for you.
