Project management tool

  • April 25, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to collaborate with many other colleagues both in our organization and outside. Easy to keep track of projects that require many hands to be completed successfully.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the tools are not available without purchasing a more costly membership level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to organize graphic and interpretation projects across the organization. Many departments can communicate with each other and with the designers about current and future projects. Senior staff members can also see the projects submitted and the progress made as well as make comments along the way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to learn the basics and then build your project management skills from there.

Very useful for collaborative tasks

  • April 24, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The good pricing model for commercial use. - Available in web and mobile App versions - Create and assign a task to multiple users is easy - recently added task portfolio option, which helps managers to track progress in real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the thing I would want to change is that Asana is somewhat hard to pick up. The tutorials on the website are not super useful for learning all of the features available (which can be somewhat overwhelming) and could definitely be improved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helped me keep all my projects organized and cohesive. There are so many things I liked about Asana: multiple to-do lists with different teams, assigning tasks, sub-tasks, different project views for those with different learning styles, due dates, and more.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a great tool for teams who are already using other software where Asana is not needed. I like how they have templates for different industries, this made it very easy to start using the software.

Pretty dang good

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has been helpful to use after transitioning from working exclusively in Google sheets and scattered project management from meeting to meeting. The follow up system and accountability for who needs to be doing what is huge.
What do you dislike about the product?
In my experience the hardest part about this has been onboarding coworkers who are not as tech savvy as the millennials in the office. Some of them just refuse to get the hang of it, which is frustrating!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management, employee accountability, team collaboration
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Focus on onboarding and really explore the app with coworkers to decide on best layouts, features, etc


    Education Management

Not new user friendly

  • April 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
In theory, it has all of the built in functions I need (task assignment, creation of subtasks with deadlines, attachment of files, etc)
What do you dislike about the product?
The overall design is neither appealing nor efficient. It is not easy to navigate or easily track progress without multiple clicks. It lacks the visual cleanliness of other project management programs
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're testing it out to use for project run by the education team but completed by others. At this point, many people are just ignoring it and using their own tracking methods since asana is a pain

A team and task management tool with advance features.

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is extremely user friendly and economical. It allows you to track your projects and tasks. It allows you to create different types of teams according to the requirement of your task. It allows coherent team communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
Setting up privacy with Asana is quite confusing. It does not provide custom forms either. It also does not automatically provide Gantt charts for your tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana offers abundant features to plan and organize your work. It provides effective file management. It supports third party integration too. It provides collaborative workspace that ensures all users have access to all the uploaded information.

Optimize your task management!

  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Asana is its ease of use and its simple learning curve, for people it is easier to use this software and identify with the assigned tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free version is significantly limited in some way, especially in the reports that play an important role in the performance of each talent.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to collect reports and monitor projects, it is easy to enter tasks in our workspace, and grouping the tasks and classifying them by the due date of the tasks, the software made the whole team very productive and the projects will be completed on time.

Great software that's constantly improving

  • April 23, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Helps me organize tasks without relying on constant emails. Love the added timeline and boards features
What do you dislike about the product?
Power BI integration is really slow and doesn't support custom fields. Don't like how some basic features are only added to higher, more expensive tiers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management. We pretty much live in Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try it for free. For small teams it's completely free and only costs money once there are more than a few users or if you want higher tier features.

I like how you can divide each task into it's own category and assign tasks to others in your network. it is very streamlined
What do you dislike about the product?
I think sometimes the different types of views can get overwhelming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are delegating assignments to our team internally and are staying streamlined and working well as a cohesive task force.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
None

Doesn't seem any more useful than communicating through email

  • April 22, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It stores all of our information, but so does just about every other product ever used. Cant really think of great things I liked about it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Doesn't seem any more useful than communicating through email. they layout is odd, and the way to communicate isnt intuitive. Just communicate through email.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to communicate with our freelancers, but we could just as easily do that through email. Just seems unnecessary.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly suggest just finding other means of project management.
