Asana the solution for small businesses??
What do you like best about the product?
What is a web and mobile application designed to improve communication and collaboration in light equipment and easy to use without anything complex only the functions necessary for an efficient and effective communication so as to achieve a good performance of a joint task.
What do you dislike about the product?
A very typical error of these applications is that the pro version is very expensive. On the other hand the version tends to create an error and close in the app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
That while I have an active task I can perform subtasks, tags and sections, in turn I can associate those tasks with projects and be more precise when monitoring.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to lower the cost to the Pro version so that more users can buy the application.
A helpful tool for to-do lists.
What do you like best about the product?
Several things I like:
I like that you can have comprehensive lists. Sometimes I have projects that have several to-do lists for parts of the projects and this keeps everything together yet separate. The sublists option is really, really helpful to keep things organized.
It's very helpful that you can tag lists to make it easier to find your information.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing really to dislike, I enjoy the layout and tools available (especially for free.) It would be nice if you could customize more of the features like color and fonts but that COULD be a service offered if you upgrade which I have not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I just this for my small business, keeping track of to do lists. I am also currently incorporating the use into the non-profit I work for. It's also nice to log on and see your list but you can use your phone to get to the list when you are out and about.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take your time to really explore the features and watch tutorials online. There are a lot of free courses and advice so you can not waste time re-inventing the wheel.
Asana helps organize my day and keeps me in touch with my team
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to track tasks within different time windows (over a week, by a particular due date, etc.). I also like how it integrates with other tools (i.e. Slack, calendar).
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be great if Asana would incorporate its help documents into the actual platform. For example, there could be a popup or hover text over lesser-used features so that a user wouldn't need to go to the Help section.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping every team member on the same page, more effectively assigning work, and determining which tasks have been sitting on the back burner too long.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give your team a little time (maybe a week or so) to review the great Help documents prior to implementation. It takes a small amount of adjustment, but it will help you stay on top of tasks.
Everything is at one place
What do you like best about the product?
In general, Asana is a project management software that facilitates team communication and collaboration. Asana can easily creates projects and tasks within a project and easily let you followthe progress of those tasks form various devices, such as: Browser, Tablets, and Phones. Compatibility is one of the best features I like about Asana. Users don't need to be in front of a computer to check the progress of a task. The progress can even be checked from a phone while users are in meeting. Furthermore, Asana also provides a nice progress viewer which lets users view the progress in a enicely readable graphical representation. Asana has many useful features which makes it better than other project management software. Some of such features are:
Smart conversation: The smart conversations allow users to turn there conversations into executable actions.
Inbox: Asana provides a better and smarter inbox. Instead of getting a flood of emails users can configure there inbox to receive only them emails they want.
Customize task: Users can custoimize and priotrize tasks based on what is important to them. The customizable view help users to find what they need.
Like other project management systems, Asana also provides all the basic features, such as: Task, Subtask, Project Templates, Attachments, Team Pages, Dashboard and more.

What do you dislike about the product?
Though Asana provides support to send images and videos over chat conversations, it opens a new tab to view that image. I think they should provides better ways to open images and videos. Ideally, they should be opened in a dialog box not in a new tab.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Asana as a project management tool for a few of our projects and finding it good so far.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I will certainly recommend Asana.
Use it daily and recommend it to others!
What do you like best about the product?
My all time favourite feature of Asana is the ability to create tasks that automatically repeat after different criteria. This allows me to systemise my work flow very easily. I also love the celebration icons!
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I dislike about Asana is the font. I which it were possible to choose what font to display in, similar to how you can customise the background. The other thing mildly irritating is that it doesn't yet work with Google Drive teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I love the ability to link tasks to documents in Drive and Dropbox. This saves so much time and ensures that everyone is working from the most recent copy of a piece of work.
Great for Assigning Tasks
What do you like best about the product?
It is very clear the tasks to do each day by which employee. The admin or any team member may put on a task for the day, determine the priority and the due date and time and delegate the task to do to any employee or team member. It also has a nice chat feature to communicate between teammates, requesting status or updates of the project or task of the day.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is capable of doing what is asked of it which is to remind and delegate certain tasks amongst our team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Business problems would be to communicate the tasks that our main priority for the day at hand. We have realized who is responsible for what and when the task must be completed in order for the team to move forward.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great free tool to delegate tasks amongst team members.
Great Organized Teamwork!
What do you like best about the product?
I am a "shiny objects" kind of guy and get distracted so easily! I try to used check lists whenever i'm doing chores around the house. But keeping track of things online was difficult especially with a team context. Asana helps keep all my tasks (and team member's tasks) nice and tidy!
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish you could "allow" edits from other members on certain task descriptions. Sometimes i want to have all the information changed along with my other co-workers. But sometimes it only allows the creator of the task to edit the text.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping the team understand where each team member is at on a project. Helps to not skip over important tasks.
Also i love the feature of setting deadlines for certain tasks! It helps keep the most important tasks at the top!

Asana makes everything start feeling like its working smoothly!
Even the them and functionality of the app is calming and relaxing!

Very Useful
What do you like best about the product?
Staying organized is easy in this program. It allows you to keep track of multiple projects at one time, and include collaborators, who can receive updates as the project progresses. The best part of the app is having the ability to set up clear deadlines, expectations, and instructions, in one organized place. Accountability is key in our business, and this allows us to track individual projects at the progress through the production process. Without some way to stay organized, we would be relagated to the old days of emails and post-it-notes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were a way to set up more conditional filtering. The more projects you have, the harder it is to keep track of what each one's status is at any given time. I would like to see the service create a way to filter your projects by due date, status, and collaborator. It would make the app a lot more powerful if notification could be global for certain aspects, such as completion of projects, but select notifications for non-critical updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Large group project management across multiple departments with upwards of 10 individuals. The software allows us to keep each other up to date on all of our pending projects without having to result to phone calls, text messages, or emails. Now we just check the app before we interrupt our colleague with status updates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a powerful organizational software that can be up and running quickly with new team members and collaborators.
Free and easy to use task management
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it's a free tool, yet full of features. It even has a mobile app that syncs well with the web site. My husband and I used it to keep track of all the tasks we needed to do to sell our house. It was nice to be able to assign different tasks to each other and mark them off as needed. We also added comments to the tasks whenever we'd make a phone call or needed to add any other notes. This is a great tool for business or personal use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest complaint I've seen is regarding the performance of the app. I've seen people say that it is slow. This has never been a problem for me personally, but it might be worth Asana keeping an eye on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For business we have used the tool to track tasks and assign them to specific people. Asana also allows us to set due-dates which makes it easier for us to check in on the status of what everyone should be doing.
Asana- the Apple of Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana at work to project manage my team's many projects. Asana makes it easy to track progress among multiple projects at once, allowing me to effectively jump into different projects during my many team meetings. The 'checking off' feature when a task is completed is a satisfying experience; it disappears yet logs your progress so you can always look back at completed tasks. I also love the ability to comment on projects and that there are timestamps for all activities.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to have more flexibility when it comes to the layout of project plans. Right now you just have two options: a heading and then bullet-like lists underneath.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project managing 10+ projects for my whole team. I realized that when you combine many a complicated project list with an easy-to-use project management software, it's much easier than keeping a tracker that you make in Microsoft Excel or Google Sheets.
