Asana Review
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great management software that has greatly helped my colleagues and I when working in teams. It’s extremely helpful because it enables you to track the progress of other teammates. It has a wide variety of tools that make working with it extremely amazing. I love the fact that this software offers predefined features such as project planning and task attachment. Asana is fast efficient and absolutely user friendly. It simply gets the job done!

I honestly have nothing I dislike about Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We’ve been able to accomplish tasks faster and this has reduced the work load in the office. I’m glad we are able to track progress of every team member during teamwork because this saves on time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Asana to any group of people working in teams. Whatever it is you’ll find Asana extremely helpful.
Easy and effective
What do you like best about the product?
We moved from Jira to Asana because Asana was faster and easier to use. Planning tasks in Asana is agile and we can track very well the evolution of our projects.
Calendar view helps to reschedule task very fast and, in some context, it helps to see the load of each team member.
To search a task is also easy, the filters shown are very useful to find tasks that the team is working on and task that are planned.
Having multiple teams and multiple projects makes it a tool to manage tasks in almost every department of the company. Colours for projects makes it easy to identify them.

What do you dislike about the product?
They release new key features at twice the price of the basic subscription.
The view of a task is too small when the list of tasks is also shown.
The panel view is too small when showing just a few tasks (more than 20).
Searching for old tasks is not as easy as searching for new tasks.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Planning projects, product development. We use calendars and "My task" view, which is quite useful to focus on what you have to do.
With Asana, we have a quick and easy way to create a task, assign and plan. Now we plan 4 times faster than we could do it in Jira.

The Go-To Task Management App
What do you like best about the product?
The simplicity and flexibility of usage. The UI is clean and easy to navigate
What do you dislike about the product?
Not enough customization options (dark mode, moving sidebars, hiding sidebars, text & row size)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem is prioritizing tasks as well as recording/capturing them to avoid forgetting. It is helpful, in staying organized as well for different projects and showing progress to others. It makes delegation and collaboration on projects easier and clear for project members.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
watch the getting started videos and the blogs to learn how to use it properly and well. There are also user case studies that show how some power users utilize the app.
A To-Do List for the Serious
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is very flexible and capable project management tool. At its simplest it a to-do list for the serious. At is most complicated it looks like it can accomodate the management of a large team.
The task structure and option were quite nice and the ability to organize into sub tasks and projects was very nice.
Both the mobile and web app are nicely designed and easy to use and adopt.

What do you dislike about the product?
When switching from an app like Trello, or even Notepad, it can feel a bit cumbersome since it really does try to provide a professional and robust project management offering.
I almost wish there was a "simple" view that abstracted away some of the robust option they provide but I suspect this would be to a different market segment than they're offering value to.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were trying to solve day-to-day task management of a distributed team that communicates in an asynchronous manner.
To be able to get a project's or a person's workload in a glance was the goal. Oh, and to rely less on email.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
At the end of the day, Asana is a to-do list on steroids. It can be too much for a small team but for larger teams with more complex projects it would be a good fit.
Asana is one of the best team management applications I have ever used.
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Asana is the fact that I can seamlessly add and remove team members whenever I need them to focus on a single task, and when that task no longer needs their services and they can get back to another task.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not so straight forward, it is a bit hard to maneuver at times.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to strategize certain tasks and get all hands on deck whenever it is needed. The biggest benefit of having Asana is having a program that is a one stop shop. We can have everything we need in one place and don't need to utilize other programs to plan out tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is amazing because it has all of the tools you need in one place. You can add and remove team members from certain projects and maintain them seamlessly. I would definitely recommend using Asana if you are a mid size organization looking to maximize your time on certain tasks.

Geat tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a user friendly project management tool. This tool is made to assist you in efficient working and completion of your tasks. The visual plans are also available for the completion of tasks. You can easily meet your deadlines regarding work. It is very fast and based on latest techniques and designing is also very much advanced.
What do you dislike about the product?
Graphically the software is not as much efficient as it should be. You cannot comebe to your tasks after having a search for Kanban projects preview. This is a single flaw in the tool.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If you are working in an organization where you have to handle complex tasks and multiple files than there is a solution to handle these tasks in the form of Asana. It helps in breaking the long and hectic tasks into small parts and divisions and assists you to perform complicated tasks in better way.
Great platform
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great project management tool no matter the size of your team or business. We use this on multiple projects to help keep our projects on time and on budget. It's a great way of keeping clients in the loop as to where your projects are running whilst keeping your team all tuned into the goals, targets and progress of your campaigns.
I especially like the communication on projects this gives us. We can chat within each project to hash out the finer details of each task and have this saved to the project for reference. It's a great update from sending emails back and forth and CCing everybody in.
The paid version of Asana allows you to set factors which must be met in order to reach the next target. This has been a really great feature for us as most of our digital marketing project are staggered, with many stages not being able to start until the previous stage is completed or additional tasks are met.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are still some paid features which we have not upgraded to yet. The price is slightly higher than I would have expected for the additional services provided. We have been so happy with Asana and the way it helps our day to day business that I am finding it hard to think of any negatives. We tried so any of this style of platform and Asana has been the one we have taken in to our business and use every day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have used a few different project management tools to help manage our digitial marketing projects. We run a lot of campaigns that involve our inhouse team as well as external contractors, offsite workers and clients on marketing teams. This platform is brilliant for allowing us all to communicate, set short and long term targets and keep our projects on target.
The variety this platform gives as far as the options of a list of tasks vs task cards fits our business perfectly. This really does allow us to both brain storm and organise all in one place. Tagged team members and assigning tasks within the platform are perfect for us.

Take time to learn all of the different features that Asana has. It will suprise you how much it does.
