A digital to-do list
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is useful for tracking work on shared projects through task management and project-based communications. The ability to assign work and associate conversations with it on a project and task level facilitates coordination amongst teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
The organizational structure of Asana can get unwieldy. With everything happening with a defined team, as the number of teams and projects grows finding things becomes more challenging.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana enables us to see the steps of a project and understand where we are at as a team relative to their completion. We are able to identify (and add) steps that have been overlooked, and anyone can identify areas that need additional attention if they are lagging behind the rest of the project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Be clear on whether you want people to use Asana as an individual productivity tool or a team collaboration tool. If it's the latter, you need to have broad adoption within the teams in which it is used.

Versatile Project Management Application
What do you like best about the product?
I like the Kanban feature which I can easily share with colleagues and set different access levels (e.g., owner, member, can edit, etc). The Gantt chart and calendar features are also useful. Aside from that, if I am working on multiple projects, I can create a tracker using their new Portolio feature.

I do not like how it is not very intuitive when it comes to design. Some non-tech savvy users may find it hard to navigate the subtasks, inbox, and attachments.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
If I do not write something down, I will not remember to do it. Asana has helped me to keep a record of everything that I need to do. I also really enjoy the ability to check things off my list, because then I feel accomplished and am able to be more productive through the day.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is super easy to use and is really helpful to get things done. Just make sure that you are making use of all of the features that is offered! There is so much that can be ignored, because it is not a necessity, but it will make life so much easier.
Keeps everything organized

Easy to create project and track progress across multiple teams. It easily integrates with slack so I no longer have to receive a ton of emails.I also like how you can favorite projects. We have a large team of 25 people and the number of project can sometimes get out of control.

I wish the inbox was a little easier to manage. It currently looks like a social media scrolling-esque news feed. I wish it looked more like gmail.

Asana is great for dedicated tram project management
What do you like best about the product?
Asana integrates with front and slack, making it extra easy to use. The level of organization is awesome and the girl submission for task requests feature is great.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I don’t like about asana is that it’s not effective unless your team is fully committed to using it and using it right... which really isn’t asana’s fault at all! I’ve used it in an agency setting and it was seamless. At a different, less organized for projects organization, it didn’t fare well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of workload and providing project updates to upper management.
