Asana is great for managing multiple ongoing projects

  • January 12, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that Asana lets you create multiple ongoing projects to track. It allows you to easily copy one project to another.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the fact that there’s no way for me to organize my projects based on current ongoing projects under “My Tasks.” I can add many tasks to My tasks section but not filtered by project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I’m solving a project management and organization problem by using Asana. I’m realizing benefits such as saving time by quickly seeing project overview and what tasks are left for me to complete.

Great Resource

What do you like best about the product?
This has really helped our team collaborate and work together. We have 5 people on staff who use this at our small multi-campus church and it's been great.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it's a little hard to find the projects I'm working on, or I'll get assigned to public projects that are duplicates of things I made personally. Suggesting "is this a duplicate" those things might be nifty, but I can see it being annoying for other users too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communicating and staying on the same page.

Asana Review

  • January 11, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I really like the project management capabilities. I love how I can link it to my Slack channel and assign tasks to coworkers. Asana does project management really well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like how if I am in the application signing tasks to myself that I can't mass assign tasks. I have to individually click each task and assign it to myself.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project Management

Asana allows our team to be more efficient

  • January 10, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
what I like best is that everyone is aware of all projects in their queues and their individual stages.
What do you dislike about the product?
sometimes, when projects are created too in advance,they can get lost and be left behind.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
we are a very large communications team with several subdivisions. Asana Allows us to be in the loop and know exactly what is expected from us.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is best to learn to use it in teams, so that everyone is on the same page.

Asana is a great organizational tool

  • January 10, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to enter and organize tasks among different projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to batch assign tasks within a project. I can go into a project and create a bunch of tasks quickly, but then I have to go through and assign and deadline one by one. OR I can go into a person's profile and assign them a bunch of tasks, but I have to select the project and date for each one. But when I'm sorting out tasks I generally do it through the project page b/c that's how the tasks come to my brain, and then I have to go back and assign people and deadlines, and there are often a lot of the same deadlines and same people, so it would be really efficient to do them in batches.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making sure that complicated projects don't have tasks that get overlooked,. But it also makes it really easy to view multiple team members' progress on a project(s) with just a few clicks instead of having to send emails or check multiple places. The integration with Harvest also makes it really easy to keep track of hours when we have projects with billable hours.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The best way to decide is to just start using it. You can do a lot with a free subscription, so you can get a good feel for whether it works for you or not really quickly.

I like Asana becasue it makes it very easy to connect with coworkers and manage different tasks with upmost efficiency.

So far, nothing is to my dislike based on what I am currently using it for. If and any case I find something that does not allow me to complete what I need to do, I will most definitely inform whomever I need to.

Tasks regarding amenities and of financial nature.

Best tool for Small Businesses to work collaboratively on projects

  • January 09, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an awesome planning, collaboration, and task management tool. I use it personally and professionally for both big and small projects. I love that I can quickly create a list, organize it, and add team members quickly and easily. It is easy to restructure tasks because we all know plans change. The ability to comment, call out people, and add files makes this a super robust tool for teams. The fact that it is super powerful on the free plan is a big benefit to the small business community.
What do you dislike about the product?
More variety in the celebration emojis. :) Seriously, love those and would like to select my own theme.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
As a small business owner and technology coach to small businesses, I use Asana to manage my own projects and teach small business owners how to use it to manage their projects and contract team members. Planning and following through are essentially to a growing business and believe Asana has made that possible.

Ultimately helpful for a large team or for difficulties in determining task responsibility

  • January 09, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can forward emails to Asana and it will make them into tasks. That's a really helpful way of keeping track of to-do lists. I also like that there are communications threads and ways to comment on tasks and tag coworkers. It's a helpful way to collect tasks into projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
Occasionally there would be details that I was trying to find within Asana conversations. I would type keywords into the search bar, but as far as I can tell, it didn't search through conversations or comments. Because of this, I'm unable to find comments in threads that are relevant to the task I need to finish. Between having "conversations" and commenting on threads, it can be frustrating to not be able to find conversations.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helped with several of our regional offices cooperating and communicating to plan a mega-event. We were able to delegate efficiently, have conversations about the different projects, and be able to tell who was in charge of each event. It definitely made the planning stages much smoother and it was a great step toward everyone being on the same page. It definitely helped establish a significant workflow, allowing everyone to know what their specific responsibilities are, and helping the large conference event we were planning to move smoothly. I loved that it was easy to communicate with other people on my team, but I wish that there was a more streamlined way to go.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This app is incredibly helpful in organizing larger projects!
