The single best task management & collaboration tool

  • December 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
As a roughly 6-person company with team members spread across the globe, we live and breathe Asana. Ever aspect of our executive coaching business runs on Asana, from low-level day-to-day tasks to high-level aspirational growth goals from the company. Asana makes it incredibly easy to establish repeating workflows and build systems for nearly every aspect of your business.
What do you dislike about the product?
As powerful as Asana's collaboration features are, they can infringe a little bit on privacy if you're not careful. You need to be very careful when creating and tracking a task you don't want others to see or have access to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every aspect of our organization runs through Asana. We solve daily task management through Asana, 1:1 meeting agendas, high-level growth goals for the organization, and both long and short-term project planning.

Asana helps us to stay organized

  • December 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana allows our team to stay in the know on what projects and tasks are happening, who is responsible for what, and when a person completes or is overdue on a task. I love the general team calendar function that allows us to see tasks for the month across all projects, and the ability to color code projects. Also as a project manager, the ability to see what everyone is working on for the day, week, month, etc. is so valuable and helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that when you reach 200 projects, the team calendar disappears. It's strange. Not an issue if you delete instead of archiving projects when they're finished, but it's kind of a pain. Also the mobile App is really terrible and not user friendly, it's functionality is subpar compared to the browser version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
People from our team are often traveling, so it allows us to stay connected and aware of what is going on across all projects. It's wonderful to assign others tasks with descriptions and subtasks, and even to create notifications for when we expect to receive things from clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Sign up, you won't regret it!

Good for handling large scale projects

  • December 05, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The software is easy to use. It handles many subtasks and projects effectively compared to other project management applications that I have used.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see the functionality improved to convert project lists to project boards, and vice versa.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Asana for anything from project management to personal time spent documentation. I like that it handles some basic communication functions within the project, as well as being simple enough to create a checklist for each step of the process.

Great Tool for Small Teams

  • December 03, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how user friendly the UI is and all of the product guides were super intuitive and quick. I was able to get my account and immediately generate todo lists for myself and my team. Then using their guides and videos become an expert at building my Kanban board for each project and organize all my sub tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like how a gantt chart is an add on, I also do not like how when someone creates a task but doesnt assign a due date its hard for me to track down how long a task was created for and have those populate a sheet or an area so that i can make sure people put due dates to their tasks and we dont forget about them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are doing project management and team management. The benefit is that we can go from 0 task management and project management to a pretty simple solution in only a few hours.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a small team its a great tool but if you are looking for a full blown project management solution Asana doesnt come with all the bells and whistles you might be expecting.

simple and easy for beginners

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a very user friendly program that doesn't need a lot of explanation to make users efficient while using it. It also has fast performance as an advantage in addition to being free to under 15 users.
What do you dislike about the product?
Add feature to assign tasks to multiple users, sometimes there's more the one person involved in a certain task that needed assignee to be two of them without the need to make sub task. also lack of time tracking and no glimpse of the reporting features in the free version. also embedded integration with other apps is not user friendly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organizing team work and having logs for every team member input in a certain project and easily communicating regarding updates and status of the task.

Best Software I have used to keep up & updated with Tasks.

  • December 03, 2018
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the way I can communicate with my colleagues and specially they get to see I was able to complete that task and if by any chance I get to end my shift with out completing that Task, they'll be able to continue that Tasks to make sure it gets completed.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment this software is perfect at least to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I get to complete most of my tasks once I get assigned to them. I can just completed and if I need more time i'll just need to contact who ever I have to and change the due date to buy more time and get back to it when ever. I love it.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is an a most software to have. It'll help everyone in the company to keep up with any tasks does not mater how difficult it can be, becs every one will be updated by just clicking in the task of the day.

Fast, Reliable, and Convenient!

What do you like best about the product?
Very user friendly and easy to learn. I like that you can sync it with other applications to multi-task. For example you can sync with Slack and use command from Slack messaging application to automatically created task inside Asana for you. I like that you can structure different task group and share with individuals who need to take action on those tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
So far I have been using Asana for about a year, and I have not come across something a currently dislike about the application.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to manage workflow and projects with our partner we work very closely with.
