Great but not worth $375/yr

What do you like best about the product?
Great user interface both on desktop and mobile
What do you dislike about the product?
They don't allow you to buy a single license. You have to buy bundles of 5. So for me as an independent developer, it would cost over $30/month for me to use it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps me stay organized without the complexity of other tools.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at Click Up unless you are happy with the free version or plan to buy licenses for a while team.

What do you like best about the product?
It has a number of features that, if managed diligently, can make larger projects easier to manage between users.

The program is but another step to manage when going through work. Micromanaging projects can become more tedious and time consuming than verbal communication.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Building projects for IT.

Helps small agencies manage massive projects

  • February 12, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We're a team of 10 and manage over 40+ clients and projects each month. Asana helps us organize every task, assign roles, develop timelines and track progress. Its template feature allows us to map out reoccurring retainers and processes like onboarding.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a great platform, but there's a bit of a learning curve with some employees. We've had to create a training process for it specifically. Once they get the hang of it though, it saves a tremendous amount of time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with a small team, Asana has really helped our agency scale (while keeping sane). It allows us to keep comments and documents collected within a single project task. We also use labels to locate archived tasks at later dates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It never hurts to try it out! Be sure and check out Asana's resources. We found them extremely helpful while setting up our reoccurring templates.

Organize, Track, Manage on Asana

  • February 12, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like it's calendar feature best and checking items off when finished. It is best for use to plan your days accordingly when working.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is not a very collaborative application. It stiffly is for help scheduling and getting approval from boss. We have to travel across a wide variety of platforms to properly collaborate. You can really finalize things here when you need approval and scheduling and tasking yourself but I'd wish for an application that does both the organization and collaborative piece - it feels more like facebook comments rather than using google docs to collaborate and communicate. Possibly them adding in an area where you can work and edit on documents together would work well and make the comment feature a little less chaotic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's great for scheduling. I use the calendar religiously for looking ahead and seeing what tasks have to be done on certain days and making sure we get things done in a timely fashion. Notifications to the team are quick and will ensure me fast responses when issues arise.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is designed for being task oriented. It is not designed for collaboration - so do not use if you want to be able to use it for both an organization and collaboration function.

Fast & Flexible

What do you like best about the product?
The great thing about Asana is that it can be anything you need it to be. Their platform is extremely easy to use and with a limitless amount of customization, you can find a way to make it work for your business.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside of being easy to use is that sometimes it's used a little bit too much. Creating a variety of redundant tasks or tasks that are so granular they lose effectiveness can result in lost productivity. Also, it is easy to create tasks within a project and within other tasks which are not assigned to any users and may become "lost" in the Asana ecosphere.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've used Asana to better streamline our development processes for building websites & custom software, managing support ticket requests & internal project management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
To get the most out of this platform you really need to understand what you're trying to achieve and design a system that works for you. Spend some time beforehand planning out your implementation and it will pay for itself in the long run.
