Help keep your team projects organized!
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Asana for years and it really helps keep the team organized and always on the same page! It's very easy to tag people in comments or even just add them as a task follower so they can monitor a project.
It also updates in real-time so if other team members are working in the same task as you (either adding comments, updating the task or even adding attachment files) it's all visible in real-time by you when your in the same task as them.

What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was easier, and more obvious to other users, to set your Asana account as 'Out of Office' when you are either Out of Office or possible on Vacation as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problem that Asana solves it keeping everyone updated to a task, so the team can work more efficiently by not having to catch certain people up.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Ask your Asana rep to give your team a live demo so everyone can see Asana in action.
Specially designed to keep track of your tasks
What do you like best about the product?
It is very easy to use, economical and very powerful. Each time they update it, expanding new features and integrations. It plans the projects and allows to establish priorities and deadlines, it also has an excellent follow-up control and allows to know how the work progresses and guides everything to the same objectives.
What do you dislike about the product?
You need custom calendars that can be linked to specific tasks. It lacks Gantt diagrams to be able to diagram the activities and be easy to understand among the collaborators. It has a great learning curve and therefore it is possible to get lost among the large number of features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a powerful project management software based on the web and it is a huge advantage since we can access the progress of our projects from any device. In a company it is of vital importance and Asana is perfect. It allows configuring project managers and these in turn can create users as required. It is simply excellent.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It has a very simple and efficient user interface that facilitates the visualization of all jobs in one place.
So good—and so free!
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Asana for over a year for both my business as a solopreneur and my personal tasks. I even use it with my interns. It's a terrific tool for project management, and everyone that I introduce it to can't believe it's free! I even heard a millionaire once mention that she and her small team use the free version. So, it works for a small startup like mine as well as some of the big guys. So easy to use and great options. I strongly prefer it over other tools like Trello and Basecamp.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it would remember how I like my tasks sorted for my board. And I wish my interns boards looked exactly like mine. Not sure why they don't. Those aren't a big deal at all, just picky things that I noticed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management for myself as well as managing interns. It's a super easy way to outline projects, tasks, and subtasks. And very easy to change due dates or details when needed. And I certainly love checking something off my list and seeing it disappear! :)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try! I love it, and have suggested it to many others!
Effective OKR with Learning Curve
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use along with necessary features you'd want with any project management tool. Calendar view, adding teams, separating projects, keeping people accountable, and so forth. It has many features without getting too cluttered at initial view.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult at times to keep track of information. Their search isn't that user-friendly (at least for me) and nested threads is almost a sin.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of progress on projects as well as holding team members accountable for tasks. It's quick and easy to send somebody a task, setting a date, and following-up with any information on that task. It's almost like an extension/replacement for email.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Mainly recommended for teams. For an individual, it could be too many features in order to get any real benefit from it—you're better off with single-purpose task management apps. Having a team validates the price tag as well since you recoup that fast in the hours and progress you make with it.
A must-have project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
The first thing that I immediately liked on Asana was the look and feel. It is clean and the ability to customize it makes it even more appealing.
The philosophy behind it is straightforward and very easy to understand.
Team and projects are the heart of the system. On each project, there are tasks and subtasks. That allows teams to organize and break down each project into multiple sections.
Features such are templates, tagging and easy assignment as well as timeline offer a great set of tools that help the overall process.
Also, addons like Everhour (time tracking) provide additional functionality to the product.

What do you dislike about the product?
Asana lucks the ability to have a full view of an employee across all projects that he/she is involved. This is something that will be added in the near future though.
Also, I would love to see more options that resemble Jira - like sprints for example.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is the single PM tool that we use internally and externally with clients. This way we have a single point of reference for all our communication and project management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is an amazing tool that can be used to track the activities of an entire company to a single place. The toolset is extremely easy to use and add-ons provide even more functionality to the product. We removed all other tools (Podio, Basecamp) from our toolset and now we use Asana internally and externally.
Awesome task management tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to create task lists for different projects and set clear due dates that are easy to keep track of.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is no option to set photo covers for tasks and that I cannot assign a task to more than one person.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Asana, delegating tasks to my team was a difficult mission and often times people would have to jot down projects and other things I ask them to do. Now, I can just create tasks and assign them to the necessary person and when they are complete, they just assign the task back to me and I can be notified and take a look. It is super beneficial that I can organize everything that needs to get done into separate project tabs and then create sub groups of smaller tasks that need to be done within that project. It is very convenient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely recommend Asana to any one who is working on a project in which organization and due dates are important. It is even great for personal use because it will help you keep track of what needs to get done and which items are a priority. You can leave notes in each task so that you don't forget a thing.

What do you dislike about the product?
Something that I don't care for is that toward the starting it isn't so natural to utilize. This office is taken with involvement, however, once you know how to utilize it is super simple. Something else that I don't care for is the way that the email you get about the advancement of the assignments has almost no data about the errand. I figure I ought to have the name of the task and the dates set for it at any rate.

User friendly task manager for small and big businesses
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to collaborate with colleges easily. I love the tag function. It allows to to keep al my projects grouped together while being able to separate them out based on skill and type. It also keeps side conversations related to each task within context and easy to reference later. I also love how customizable the project areas. Creating a layout that suits your work and makes the easiest flow for viewers
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that you cannot assign a task to more than one person. Sometimes when people are only followers they don't always get notified of changes. I also think being able to rate a task on progress, showing half done, would be helpful and motivating. The mobile app could use some upgrading. It is not as user friendly or well laid out as the desktop version. And a superficial thing is to have the little celebratory animals more often. :)

I use it for my work for collaborative tasks as well as a way for the entire organization to be aware of what other team members are doing. I think it helps build team unity in the fact that we all see the work going into the organization. And it helps us delegate more efficiently

Progress reports could be better and show more detailed information that finished task and unfinished. I wish they would improve the mobile APP to be as friendly as the PC version.
