Asana for my
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a must have for any Marketing team! We have so many little tasks due daily, that is really hard to keep track mentally. With Asana, you're not only able to keep track of these tasks, but you can create projects with your team, and add subtasks for each person. You can even make one task dependent of another. For example: for a lot of the social promotion I do, I need graphics from our Designer. So, I can make the "social promo" task dependent on the Designer's "make graphics" task. Which means, I can't do it, until she is finished. Asana also has a calendar view, which is great to see your projects in a "big picture" and see what's going on that week or that month. You can also keep track of what everyone else is doing. As a boss, you can check if your employee has too much on their plates, or not enough, and you can make sure they're on track.
What do you dislike about the product?
The tasks view can get a little confusing. It's hard to navigate through at times, at least until you're 100% accustomed. Tasks that are supposed to be weekly, sometimes don't appear. It'd be good if you could automatically duplicate them without all the internal comments. For example, we have a podcast every week, but the info we add inside the task changes. I'd be good if the task got duplicated, but with blank slates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were not aware of a lot of the things going on within the team. Everyone was working on their own thing, not realizing a lot of it it's intertwined. Once we figured out we had this problem, we got Asana to keep track of all the projects we have going on at the moment, and the part that each of us play in them. How our own work affects the other, and learning to stay on track with tasks and deadlines.
Great Project Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I think Asana has a very user-friendly interface and is much easier to use than some of it's competitors.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel as if Asana works well for single projects, however sometimes we have clients with multiple projects or ongoing services and I feel as if Asana could improve with managing those types of instances.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeps the team organized, task oriented, and helps us meet deadlines.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool for task management!
Great Project Management Resource
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can access the program through the website or through the mobile App. It is very easy to access.
What do you dislike about the product?
It takes getting used to the format of completing a task then assigning it to someone else as you progress through projects
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has been a great resource to use when I write blog articles.The editors assign mea topic and we work through Asana from start to completion of any article
Intuitive tool
What do you like best about the product?
very straightforward and user friendly. Features are intuitive, and new features that they are rolling out are consistently helpful and easy to use
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could add tags to subtasks, rather than only being able to do so on parent tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Enables clear accountability by person with deadlines, and sort/filter based on tags
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The tool alone is helpful, but it is worth considering pairing it with a broader project management approach, such as agile project management.
ASANA REVIEW
What do you like best about the product?
Asana was very helpful with assigning tasks for members on my team as well as setting deadlines for completion of those tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not like how the formatting of the tasks was set up. I wish there was more color coordination to differentiate tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to assign tasks directly and set soft deadlines that could be adjusted if need be. I found that it helped me to organize my tasks for my personal to do list as well as assigning tasks for other members o my team. Some need additional organization help at times so it was helpful to have directly on their phones so that they can access the information at home if need be (or on the go). It also allowed for collaboration which was very helpful.

The Convenience of Asana
What do you like best about the product?
It's really helpful when you're working in a team on a project with lots of moving parts. Using the kanban you can coordinate and increase productivity.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the tasks will buildup in the "My Tasks" section which can make it hard to find what you're looking for.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're solving the problem of having tons of projects and making sure none slip through the cracks
Asana for Creative Workflow
What do you like best about the product?
I love the calendar view as a visual representation of my and my teams workload.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don’t care for marking off my tasks within a project, only for them to disappear. If I wanted to reference something I’ve done I’d need to search through the timeline.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to manage a creative digital marketing team that needs to constantly shift due to market. The set up for teams has allowed everyone included a space to view our changes and stay on the same time age.
This product is great for teams that need to keep up with where projects stand in the workflow.
What do you like best about the product?
My favorite thing is the unicorns and other critters that fly across the screen in celebration of completing a task. I also like that you can customize the fields in projects and make templates for types of projects you do frequently - it saves you from having to add the same tasks over and over. I also like how you can set it to spooky mode close to halloween.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that they got rid of the "love" option. I also wish this product had the option to automatically general project numbers. It would help us match up print pieces to past projects and find original materials. I never could figure out how to export things from Asana - it would've been nice to see how many projects we did in each category.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
This tool let's you enter in to-dos quickly and easily. The product we used before took so much time to enter a single task we often didn't bother because it took less time to actually just complete the task.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a system where others can submit tickets for your team, I don't think this is it, there's no much flexibility it's definitely more of an internal tool.
Many features
What do you like best about the product?
It has email blasting regarding to your unfinished task
What do you dislike about the product?
Using Asana as your project management is great, but same as Trello when you put many card/task its slowing down
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keep track on task and not overlooked some but with Asana since it has email notification much better
