Great for task management

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is an amazing app to make sure the ball isn't dropped on a deadline or a task is forgotten. I have a lot of projects rolling at one time and this keeps them all organized for me.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes integrations fall out for some reason. I had clockify integrated and for some reason it just disappeared lately and couldn't get it reconnected. I haven't had the time to contact support, however. I'm sure they could get me back up and running with clockify.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management is a huge plus. I can collaborate with my team and stay on task much better than before.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you have tons of projects, it may make sense to take advantage of breaking things down into teams and boards on Asana. It makes everything more organized.

What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the user experience from the software. It is easy to use, and encourages us to do more because of the unicorns.
What do you dislike about the product?
Least helpful about asana is it give you too much freedom to push back dates, allowing employees to change dates without approval
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving communication issues and reporting on a regular basis!

Asana is a dream and getting better!

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has been transformative in project management, execution of marketing campaigns and daily tasks/projects for our team. The improvements and product developments are always aiding in our work productivity especially in times of team/time capacity constraints.
What do you dislike about the product?
Our team loves all the developments and would love for them to come out more quickly — only joking, but we get excited when we know people are coming!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving project management — timelines, task assignment, task handoffs, deadlines, capacity/workload (with the newly added portfolio), document sharing and access. And this has great decreased our use of email!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a way to manage, track and execute projects within a team or personally I can not recomment asana enough.

Asana Review

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The list-type layout of asana is one of the things that I like most about it. It is extremely intuitive, and maps into other features within the program flawlessly. The integrated calendar feature is extremely useful when it comes to managing tasks, and something that I use almost daily. The team member assignment feature has also proven to be very effective when managing our team through the app, and the fact that a lot of it can be done on mobile devices is crucial. I also love the Tab+B function; very clever you cheeky Asana folks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it can be difficult to manage if the task list gets too long. Some of that might be user error but a better, built in way to sort tasks might help with this issue. Percentage complete functions and start dates and such could be helpful too - some of that might be in the premium version, but using the free trial and missing those functions. The interface its self can sometimes also be crowded so finding different tasks, comments, or documents can be a bit of a challenge.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana mainly for task management when to-do list type organization is required. It is also very useful for team management through its team member assignment features, due dates, and calendar features.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider Asana when looking to do task-based project management with small to mid-sized teams in your organization.

Very good software but...

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It is a really good software, you can track the status of all activities and use it to upload file. All your team members will be connected.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are more functionalities than the competitors, but that's not a good thing: it became more dispersive and less intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solve the problem of connection between teammates, here you can chat or update your progress and files. All team members will know what's going on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider to use Trello instead of asana...

Asana for Marketing

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, seamless setup, templatizing was straightforward
What do you dislike about the product?
UI is not the prettiest, feels a tad bit dated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Streamline workflow, hit deadlines, global communication
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is tried and true, has been around for a long time and has lead the force in project management, I fear that without a newer more dynamic UI (such as Monday) that they will lose traction in the marketplace.

Not user friendly

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Seeing what my coworkers were working on, steps they need to take, being able to copy a project that was similar.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hard to organize tasks under projects. The interface wasn’t very customizable. Editing the deadline was sometimes difficult. The calendar didn't separate by projects. Some problems were with the template being stubborn. We had to make workarounds by naming the project and keeping naming conventions so we knew which bullet points were under the same project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps you be Organized for meetings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use the bullet point step list. Use it to organize all of your tasks for a project

Simple and Effective

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is very easy to use once you know what it is you are wanting to use it for. I started using it for my video production schedule with the videos I do for my business, and it's helped a TON with that.
It also allowed me to figure some other things out with my SEO, website, and social media that helped me plan things out better.
What do you dislike about the product?
A little bit of a learning curve to it, and having never used it before, it took about a week or so to get it set up how I have it now and feel good about it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Video production, tracking tasks, creating timelines for projects, tracking clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a simple yet effective tool to structure your business, Asana is a great way to do just that.

Asana - Pros and Cons

  • October 01, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Asana is user-friendly and that projects can be separated easily into different boards. This feature is helpful when involved with multiple projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that anyone involved in a project can make a major change to the board. I also don't feel that Asana takes away the back-and-forth in communication on a project as well as I was hoping it would. It allows projects to be organized, but still requires back-and-forth to communicate on the project deadlines and progress.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The major benefit to using Asana is everyone involved with a project and view the outline, rather than the outline being saved only by the project manager.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great tool for keeping organized and giving multiple people a line of site into projects.
