Useful for content marketing an planning
What do you like best about the product?
The board system allows us to move through content marketing projects and manage content ideas and content strategy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Project management workflows could be improved a bit. I'd like to see functionality where we can set up timelines for people to work on specific parts of one task. Right now, only one person can be assigned to a task at a time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
More organization and clarity into the content marketing process. Visibility to others outside our team into the important work that we do.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure everyone is committed to maintaining their work, otherwise, things quickly get outdated.
Great Place to have your Goals and Team Aligned
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great tool to help organize you and your team both at a high level and a granular level. It allows company goals to be seen and transparent (should they so choose to be) and allows team members to fully understand what they're responsible for and makes it easier to track progress and measure performance. It includes due dates, alerts, reminders, the ability for others in the org to follow a project or a particular employee.
What do you dislike about the product?
One of the few things I dislike about asana is that it has limited integrations with other platforms we utilize internally. although not very likely that there's much data to sync, but having the ability to sync due dates in asana to a google calendar or outlook has been a challenge but easily remedied by logging in daily and understanding what tasks you need to complete to move the needle.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problems we're solving with Asana are quite simple. We're keeping our executives in line with what they need to do to accomplish the main mission for the quarter, half, year, etc. that waterfalls down into what the directors need to do, then again into the front line troops. It's a great tool to keep everyone on track as to how they impact the company needle.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend ensuring the rest of your team is on board with the commitment of making asana work for your company. It's one of the best out there, but without end user adoption, it will be a costly and ineffective tool.

Asana Task Management Tool

Organize your office fast and easy
What do you like best about the product?
Asana enables users of all tech levels to easily organize the office and office projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are two main downsides to Asana: (1) tasks can really only be assigned to one person; and (2) sub-tasks are hard to work with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has been helpful to organize what we do in my office. While we can't capture every single thing we do, it is great for assessments and upper management stakeholders to see just how much we do and how the staff is contributing to the work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is easy to implement in any office and they offer a free on-line version. I was able to organize my office immediately and all of the users felt comfortable using the product. Very few of my staff are tech savy, so this was a great option for us. It is especially helpful for when upper level managers want to know about our efficiency and quality of work. This was a nice supplement to offer outside evaluators when we wanted to know how well our office was doing and what we could do to improve.
Asana keeps me organized!
What do you like best about the product?
I love how well organized I am. And how organized all my projects are.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not found any downsides yet. Nothing but helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am able to keep all my projects organized and schedule tasks for myself and my team.
Helpful for Organizing Tasks and Accountability but Too Much Crossover with Email/Outlook
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoyed Asana's interface, I found it easy to use and intuitive. My manager and I were able set tasks and maintain accountability by showing what has been completed and what is still in progress. If you are trying to avoid numerous emails back and forth regarding progress on a project, this tool is helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I found that there was too much crossover with my Outlook/Email account. With my team's workflow, I found that it almost felt redundant to have tasks and meetings on my calendar and to be emailing back and forth on projects but also had to maintain the Asana account, it felt like extra work and didn't simplify or clarify my workflow.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana clearly defines tasks and allows you to show progress or completion of those tasks. It creates a since of accountability within the team and allows team members to see what was been completed and what needs to be done. Asana allows you to eliminate the email back and forth that can often become confusing depending on how many are on your team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Asana if you are finding that you need to clarify and define your workflow, maintain accountability within your team and want to eliminate the back and forth between team members that can often become stressful.
An easy to use lightweight project management platform
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I don't have to be the one who nags stakeholders. Asana emails task owners after the due date to make sure that tasks don't become late. You can sort by date and plan the rest of your day and see what tasks are outstanding.
What do you dislike about the product?
The default home page doesn't sort by date which seems like an oversight. That seems like the most useful view. It is only a couple extra clicks but it adds up!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing GTM plans and organizing large groups all pushing to related goals.
Great software. I use it for all my projects
What do you like best about the product?
Extremely easy for organization, best thing is automation.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wouldn’t say I dislike anything about Asana. It’s perfect for my use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Zapier automation features with asana. When a facebook lead comes in, it automatically registers under a project in asana and our staff contacts them then marks it
