It's helping keep track of ALL the pieces

What do you like best about the product?

The dashboards of being able to see all that is happening with the department and team. It helps me keep my finger on the pulse of the organization. Well designed projects and tasks open the doors for insights.

What do you dislike about the product?

Designing projects can be difficult at different points. Not from task creation that is very simplistic which can be difficult to organize and report on if a process or system is not followed.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

It solves the problem of knowing where the status of things are. It helps keep abreast on the ins and outs of the organization. As well as organizing project timelines and statuses.

What do you like best about the product?

I appreciate it for its ease of use and clear task organization, which helps simplify project management and strengthens team collaboration.

What do you dislike about the product?

There isn’t a whole lot to dislike about Asana. That said, if I had to point out a couple of drawbacks, they would be the learning curve, which feels a bit steep when you’re just starting out, and the fact that some important features are locked behind the premium pricing tier.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Asana helps us manage multiple ongoing projects by bringing more structure and clarity to our workflows. It reduces the need for manual coordination, improves cross-team alignment, and helps ensure tasks don’t slip through the cracks.

What do you like best about the product?

Reminders, alerts, most important, the joy of seeing a task ticked off as completed

What do you dislike about the product?

You need to play around with it to get a grip on how it works.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Tracking of tasks, collaboration with team members on a project to-dos.

My main use case for Asana is management and documentation. We use Asana to figure out how to work together on teams, feature planning, and feature feedback.

Some of the features are proprietary, so I cannot go deep into anything, but when we are working on something, it is typically two persons on it going back and forth on the document figuring out how to work together and what to collaborate on.

The deadlines work really well, the timelines work really well, and the views work well on all devices because we use it on mobile, tablets, and laptops.

In my opinion, the best features Asana offers are collaboration.

I have experience with integrations. We are a Slack team and then we moved over to Teams, so the integration from the bot integrations that we have give you notifications based on timeline deadlines, and those things work really well and we appreciate those.

Asana has positively impacted my organization as we have moved from a team of five persons to currently a team of about nine or twelve persons over the last two to three years, and it really helps.

It is the go-to tool for reviewing items in specific places, and it lifts some of the work when it comes to collaboration, making it easier for us.

Asana helped with that growth as we are at approximately seventy percent efficiency on the team because we have a go-to tool that helps us with managing our documentation and eases us with collaboration.

Asana can be improved, but I would need to dig more into that to give a thorough response.

It would be nice if we could integrate it with Telegram or with something comparable to Open Law or Hermes, but I have not checked the availability.

I still worry about Asana's governance and security because the language around it is ambiguous since everybody keeps changing based on regulations rather than the customer's needs.

Asana's parent company's needs are more important than the customer's needs, and the training data that is used is interesting.

Regarding Asana's AI capabilities, its accuracy and reliability of output are still at best okay; it still needs to be worked on, but it is coming along.

I have been using Asana for four or more years.

Asana is stable.

Asana's scalability is really scalable.

The customer support is good.

To my knowledge, I did not previously use a different solution.

I have not seen a return on investment, so I cannot share relevant metrics such as time saved, money saved, or fewer employees needed.

The pricing, setup cost, and licensing were not my wheelhouse, as I just got access.

I am not certain if I evaluated other options before choosing Asana.

I would advise others looking into using Asana to read the use case and figure out if it fits your needs, but generally give it a try before you say no.

I would rate this product an eight out of ten.

Private Cloud

Amazon Web Services (AWS)

What do you like best about the product?

I love that Asana allows me to create multiple different projects to organize my work and personal tasks, and that each task is so customizable with subtasks, attachments, etc. I have different projects for my work and home life, and I have each project organized differently according to what is most important for each of those lenses. Asana had more features that allowed our large team to work on all of our different projects in one place. The initial setup of Asana for our team was very easy.

What do you dislike about the product?

Some features are behind a paywall that seem simple and wouldn't expect to be part of a premium tier, whereas other high-level features are available at the basic level. Most notably, there is not a way to organize projects into folders without paying for a tier which includes Portfolios. Organizing projects into groups seems like a basic feature that should be available to all users.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Asana provides a reliable place to track daily tasks, organize work and personal projects differently, and customize tasks with subtasks and attachments, accommodating our large team with diverse projects in one platform.

What do you like best about the product?

The UI and notifications supports me stay on top of my tasks. And as a consequence, having better performance.

What do you dislike about the product?

Sometimes it’s difficult for me to add certain integrations or add-ons.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

What do you like best about the product?

The platform allows for auditing financial resources by linking custom budget fields to the operational tasks of each advertising campaign. This visibility curbs budget deviations, ensuring that the hours invested by the creative team align with projected profit margins.

What do you dislike about the product?

I miss having more in-depth native cost reports, forcing me to export data to external spreadsheets to perform complex financial reconciliations.

The data transparency achieved drastically optimized the return on investment for each account. The main benefit is the elimination of financial losses due to unbilled work, guaranteeing impeccable financial health and overall profitability.
