Good but room to improve
What do you like best about the product?
Task tracking capabilities including sub-tasks etc, ability to create team projects,
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of intuitiveness on the calendar functionality, don't find it as effective for seeing feature development as JIRA
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are solving inter-team task tracking, the collaboration of projects. Benefits include the ability to collaborate easily and notification systems are better than other tools I've used
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider use this more as a task tracker rather than a true project management tool - hard to track the progress of tasks, or the flow of the project cycle.
Works great for tasks but still needs some improvement done
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can share my tasks with my manager and we both work from the same application, so we have access to the same information.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that once a task is completed, it's a hassle to find it if you need it again later on. We're using the free version, so maybe that's the reason why, but it would be useful if the application was more user friendly than it is.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Creating projects and tasks that I can share with my manager and we can both see the progress made.
The new Intuitive Project management tool is here!

Simplified Gantt charts, workflows and user-friendly tool for project management.
It is also powerful. It isn't like your average tools.

Great way to collaborate with my team

Proving tasks within larger tasks
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can archive everything fairly easily and can tag people. Within each project you can provide sub tasks which is helpful and the settings will send you a nudge to remind you you have something due soon
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that within a larger task, the smaller tasks could be assigned to individual people instead of all people assigned on the larger task. Also seeing it in calendar view would help
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are lots of people doing overlapping tasks so this helps or project manager know where everyone’s Tim is being spent
The best designed task management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to learn, attractive and simple interfaces, easy to make it your daily home base. Great for both new and experienced computer users. I love that you can have task/project-related convos and attachments. This is excellent if you are like me and frequently need to show people where they made decisions in the past in an easy way. I love that events can be recurring on almost every pattern I've ever thought of. I use it for grants tracking, so I can assign out pieces to different team members and easily gather pieces back to me. I love that I can hyperlink to previous years notes, attachments, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
What I least like about Asana is that you cannot learn all of its functionality just in a single day. I hope they send an email with each subject or functionality with a video link so that it will be easy for someone to learn all of the things you need to learn to enjoy Asana services in a day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I also use it to plan editorial pieces, social media, communications campaigns, nonprofit programs, board meetings, household tasks and chores, etc. Previosuly I used it for large books/projects to break large academic projects into smaller pieces. I've used it with large and small groups aged 18-67. I've set it up for over 10 orgs/groups and it is fast and easy. Everyone loves how easy it is to just start using it. Great email functionality and it has a ton of add-ins you can use to link to other software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
For new users, I would definitely suggest diving in and checking out all the features Asana offers. A great way to start is by watching the tutorial videos they have in the help menu in the top right corner of the site. Once you're comfortable with the app, I would look into the power features they have. Getting to know these will increase your productivity and efficiency in using the app. I would also say to get your team on board.
Asana is an efficient management system if fully implemented
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to share across all departments and create sub tasks within each project.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a lot of hidden features that take a while to uncover. To be used efficiently it takes time to learn
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management. We saw a huge up tick in team members being on the same page
