Asana Just Works
What do you like best about the product?
I love the real-time collaboration that can be used as a team. I also like that it can be used cross-platform with ease!
What do you dislike about the product?
The display is a little plain. I would prefer something a bit cleaner.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to stay current across the entire team. Most do not work at the same site, so it is important that all information be up to date.
Asana is great for working from home teams
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I can collaborate and ASSIGN things to my fellow colleagues. It helps us to know who's got this and what still hasn't been assigned.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, it gets overwhelming to see *EVERYTHING* on your to do list at the same time. I overcome this by learning to use the subject bars effectively.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving my need to communicate with my team about multiple projects from various locations. I've realized the benefits by being able to work within a team that doesn't have an office together.

Great Simple Tracker for Tasks
What do you like best about the product?
This tracker is great for small projects that are made of tasks. Use it for quickly achieved pieces of work.
What do you dislike about the product?
Premium features are not worth the money. Can make do without. You will get sales calls if you have a team the is 10-15 people/
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working with internal employees to create small features of work. Easy to use with multiple teams.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a task tracker. Don't rely on it for forecasting or estimating.
We love Asana for pickup freelance work!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has the best UI around! It's sleek, intuitive, and easy to use. I've used Basecamp, Trello (ack), Active Collab, to name a few, and Asana is out-of-the-gate the fastest to set up and use out of the box without too much effort or special knowledge.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana doesn't itself track time, which is a bit of a problem. A lot of platforms do this natively, which is a plus. However, there are workarounds (that can be a little clunkly) for tracking time and invoicing). If you are looking for an all-in-one project management, time, and invoicing tool, look elsewhere. It's also a little difficult to add comments to projects or tasks, and to track comments.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to manage our many side projects. We have many collaborators with many moving pieces.
Good Organizer for Agencys
What do you like best about the product?
I personally like the ability to see all open projects and the timeline of each one.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is hard to get a granular view of the projects without a ton of clicking around. You can get lost rather easily when you are in Asana if you do not know where to look.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves the issue of keeping tabs on projects. Being able to build out timelines, assign employees and put people/teams in charge of projects is a huge plus.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a trial run to see if it going to work for you before you buy it.
Asana for Small Private School
What do you like best about the product?
I like Asana because it is easy to see your to do lists and manage many different projects. I like the different workspaces and I even like the fun aspects of Asana (the unicorn).
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Asana could integrate better with some other programs I use, such as some Google apps. I ended up not using it as much as I'd like because I didn't want to have to open up a separate program to do some of the same things I can do with Google.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Program management is a big problem we've solved with Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look at all the training videos so you're aware of all the features of Asana!
