  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

Nice to have a very flexible framework to share with colleagues on similar projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Seems like the software would come apart at any minute.

Helped to allow multiple PM's to contribute in a fluid manner to the progress of a software implementation.

Build a little more structure and a little less fluidity to where it seems unsettled.

Great UI and Organization

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the easy check boxes and assigning others to a specific task. This ensures that everyone knows exactly what their job is..

You can attach a due date and attach files easily. It's very intuitive!

I enjoy the color scheme as well and its easy to reorganize tasks. You can drag and move tasks so its more visual. you can move tasks upwards and down the list in case a task priority does change.

You can also have different projects for better organizations.

I enjoy the ease of access with Single sign on using google so I dont need to remember another username and password. It has good security features and accessing the settings is very easy. You can use a picture to also help associate who is assigned to a card. Its visual to the point where you can see easily who is assigned, the specific due date and title of the task without needing to click the actual tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Finding completed tasks is a little hard and sometimes it takes a little bit of work to find completed projects and figure it out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana for planning projects such as conference room set ups.

We also use it for day to day tasks that come up so that we can assign and delegate tasks accordingly.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you need something more visual.. Trello is a good choice as well.

Love Asana and its detail

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how detailed the software is. As a social media manager, I'm able to communicate effortlessly with our designer and can let him know how high of a priority a task is. I can re-assign to others and it's nice to be able to complete an entire project within a single task.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes gets confusing with all of the teams my company has internally. Also, everything essentially has to go through the Project Manager in order for it to be successful or else it will get confusing. You also can't multi-assign to two people so only one person can have ownership at once.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
All of our agency projects go through Asana. From adding copy to a landing page to creating coded pages, we work through Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you have a clear owner of the product!

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has helped us over the past two years with engaging collaboratively and collectively to ensure we get task done on time and fully!
What do you dislike about the product?
The option to specialize and make something our own is extra expensive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to collectively work together with ease using Asana, and its user interface has easily aided in our project completion.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're thinking about using Asana, stop thinking and pull the trigger. It will pay for itself!

Cool way to track your workload

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the way that anyone can assign work to you and you can pick who can view it. Getting assigned work with a due date eliminates the pressure of completing it in a rush because you didn't know it was needed.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the way that you cannot submit pdf or photos and you can just comment. If that ability was added asana could be used for more. If there were more things we could do instead of just commenting, everything about asana would be perfect.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems
- Everyone doing the same task
- Everyone not completing tasks on time
Benefits
- Getting work done
- Everythings more organized now

Asana is super powerful but difficult for some employees to fully utilize

  • April 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how powerful Asana is. Our company uses it for tasks and project management but also for other processes like onboarding, learning and development, and CRM-type tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana isn't the most user-friendly software especially if you layer multiple processes onto it. A recent employee survey surfaced Asana usage as a dissatisfier for many employees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps coordinate tasks in many different departments and gives visibility to projects and recurring tasks. In some instances, it replaces buying a bunch of additional licenses for other software. Manager have increased visibility, and we have actionable data.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try before you buy
