Great way to collaborate on complex projects
What do you like best about the product?
How I can decide how transparent and granular to be about my process.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish I could easily convert tasks into subtasks instead of deleting and reentering them separately.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Transparency, project architecture, granularity, process flow.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It may take some time to get comfortable with it if you're used to JIRA or Trello, but it's much more user-friendly than either of those.

all of our projects are in one place
What do you like best about the product?
I like that we have visibility into all of the projects in the company and that we have a record of our projects all in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like the ability to sort by tag within projects and change sort while keeping things categorized.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
projects across multiple departments & prioritizing them
Helps me categorize all the work/projects I'm working on.
What do you like best about the product?
I mostly love how many layers deep you can go within even a single project in Asana. The check boxes are key for me to get things completed, and I often use Asana to not just get through basic daily work todos, but to chase down new projects and client.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a project tab for daily tasks that would refresh every day. So basic things that need tending to would start over every single day. Maybe not quite a dislike, but a wish.
Actually, one thing I dislike (at least on the basic level of membership) is that you can't assign multiple people to one task. That's a huge bummer when you are working with other people, but to assign tasks you can only assign one person. I makes it difficult for that individual to remember their tasks within that task if they're name isn't attached to it.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm getting stuff done. that's the main one - I'm way more organized that I am with my previous sticky-note system. I love that you can set deadlines. Super helpful. When I do work with others, it's so great to all be on the same page with deadlines and expectations. better than sending tons of emails.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I've heard some folks say they felt like it has a learning curve for user friendliness. I can hardly remember that since I've used it so much, but I would recommend sticking with it and committing to figuring it out. I've tried a few others and came back to this one.
The Best Project Management Platform!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Asana allows us to create multiple projects, tasks, and subtasks. It's really helpful that I'm able to assign certain subtasks of a project to different people with various due dates. Plus, once I archive a project, I'm always able to find it again by looking up the job number or title we created for it. Asana keeps our agency's head on. We're always able to see who did what and when to which project.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is no option to track time within the platform. We have to do that through a separate platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Asana allows us to keep track of our projects and keeps us on track with completing them on time. We've realized that we really do need something like this since no one can remember absolutely everything!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great platform for managing projects. I wish it could do more like, like keep track of our time spent on each project, but this is pretty outstanding as-is. It also keeps every project forever, even after archived so you'll never lose it!
A place to note everything
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to add new tasks. Organizing tasks by sections and projects keeps things clean and logical.
What do you dislike about the product?
The Asana calendar needs to show more detail of each task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Bug management, product development and long term planning. HAving a place to write down notes has been super helpful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use zapier to integrate asana with other apps.
Asana helps us at SealSmile to manage our team.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the way I can easily assign tasks to my team members and track the progress online.
Also, in SealSmile we are daily using asana for communicating with remote team members.
Another great feature is the integration with plug-ins. Using them we can enrich the functionality of the platform . For example instagantt is a great plug-in that allows you to quickly create gantt charts.

What do you dislike about the product?
Well it might be tricky to follow the updates and conversations on each task. It happens to miss some important updates. I would appreciate if the guys on Asana could work a bit on that and provide a more efficient way to follow the comments on each project and task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
In SealSmile we are using Asana to:
1) assign tasks to team members
2) track the team progress
3) build a shared knowledge base.

Intuitive and keeps us on track
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is so easy to use! It hardly takes any training and you can be up and running really fast. The calendar is a great way to see things at a glance, and being able to highlight activities the same color is a nice feature. I love their hacks and celebrations, making project management fun.
What do you dislike about the product?
We do a lot of events that run 2-3 days, so it would be nice to be able to set a date range instead of only a single day
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Deadlines were being missed and items were being forgotten before implementing Asana. We are now able to stay on track of items and have utilized this over email so that everything is track and not lost in an inbox.
Free tool that helps organize teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
Free tool; Easy to use; It's possible to organize several projects in the same account; useful calendar for visualizing the tasks and deadlines; It's possible to create conversations between team members; lets you add multiple members; have a dashboard to get a view of your team's progress on projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is no translated version in Portuguese; Only have basic tools in the free version
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier to organize the various tasks; Easier to visualize what remains to be done; Easier to communicate between team members
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Very intuitive, easy to use, great help to organize and set goals, allows you to create conversations between team members
Great for Support Issues
What do you like best about the product?
You can easily add a list of items/issues all at one time, and Asana creates a separate task/ticket for each item.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could never replace a project/time management system since it doesn't incorporate those items.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is a great way to track support issues and make sure they get addressed/resolved. That's the main thing we use it for. Communicating bugs/issues to a developer, assigning those bugs/issues to developers, and holding them accountable has been much easier with Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would consider Asana for task/bug/issue management only. I don't believe that Asana is a robust project management solution.
Very good to do software
What do you like best about the product?
It`s easy to use and very helpful. I use mostly the smartphone app.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can`t say I dislike something, but I`ll add some features like alarms on the smartphone.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us organising stuff we have to do and we cand track status of our projects easier within teams.
