Mildly confusing interface
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to create tasks and lists under different categories. The similarities in design to Slack, another common workplace app.
What do you dislike about the product?
How much clicking is necessary to get from task to task. How divided (and therefore small) the screen gets.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am planning large scale multi-week events and projects with my team. It is easy to assign tasks to different colleagues and check in on their progress.
Useful but not necessary
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to set up tasks and goals and to track them. The calendar view is very useful to know when things are due, and lets you get organized easily. It's also easy to have goals checked completed and assign goals and tasks to team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not well organized if you have multiple companies and multiple tasks in each company. It works well for single projects, but I need a tool that can help me organize across many projects from different enterprises.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization and assignment of tasks for each team member. Tracking of milestones and seeing them in a calendar to make sure we complete deadlines is one thing we did accomplish. It also makes it easy to figure out who is doing what and who is responsible for the tasks.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Trello
Good for tracking action items, categorization/organization could be better
What do you like best about the product?
Quick and easy to create action items, and move them around, assign them, create due dates and reminders, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Labels are for viewing only and items under a label don't actually relate to the label other than visually. That means you can't sort your work queues as things will no longer be categorized by label. Huge disadvantage and makes it difficult to prioritize items overall across different labels.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking client deliverables, assignments, due dates, etc.
Excellent tool for collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use platform. File transfer and live time updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing to dislike. Would be easier to use if it was an application and not a web based platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration with individuals in many locations across the country. Allows for easy access to ideas and sharing of products.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Test and use compared to other products. Believe this is easier to use than the free items provided by Google.
Helpful
What do you like best about the product?
I like how it's easy to use and you never get lost
What do you dislike about the product?
It could be more specific to what I need
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am keeping track of my business' projects and overseeing that they get completed successfully
A good task/project management software, but needs some UI updates
What do you like best about the product?
I like how you can have multiple Projects, Tasks, Subtasks, and depth with different responsibility at the granular task level.
What do you dislike about the product?
Viewing conversations and details at anything beyond the first sub-task level is too difficult.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Manage multiple projects and keep all parties up to date with information on the projects. We are able to hold employees accountable for all tasks.
Good way to share tasks
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to share tasks and checklists with other team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
The whole setup is a bit overkill, with repeated items often created and then these are not so easily destroyed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Needing to share tasks and items with other team members is quick and easy, and the checklists that can be accessed by entire teams is great for accountability.
Great for team and project management
What do you like best about the product?
We use Asana to keep track of our team's work, projects, and deliverables. We also are able to link other people in different departments and organizations to our Asana account so they can function like internal members of the team and make and view updates to the project boards. It is easy to navigate, create new projects, upload documents, see what team members are working on or have completed, and get high level and detailed views of projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
The free service does not allow you to create deadline-dependent tasks or create gantt charts. It is difficult to remove access to tasks and projects by project managers.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are able to work with people across departments in our large organization as well as with people outside our organization. It allows for seamless communication and visualization of work.
Works great for project management
What do you like best about the product?
I like how you can view different projects either by a product board, list and how they tie into each other.
What do you dislike about the product?
The subtasks you are able to create can be confusing to some users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to manage larger projects and incorporate them/see the bigger picture.
Amazing Project Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love being able to choose between the card system and the list system when creating a project.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not like the fact that there was not a notification option for of a due date changed on a task.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping projects organized and allowing everyone to be on the same page. The benefits of giving everyone a clear understanding of the current status of a project is priceless.
