Unobtrusive Project Management Software (and That's a Good Thing)
What do you like best about the product?
I am a copywriter at a marketing agency, so I want a project management system that is utilitarian--simply tell me when things are due, let me upload my finished deliverable, and let me check things off my list as they are completed. That's what Asana offers. I've worked with other PM platforms (Workfront, for example) that had many more bells and whistles but ultimately ended up getting in the way and taking time away from actually DOING the work.. That's why I appreciate that Asana, at least how my organization has set it up, is easy and FAST to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really have nothing negative to say about Asana. It was intuitive and stays out of my way as I crank out copy and move it along the workflow to the designer, account manager, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team is very focused on creating efficiencies so we can maximize productivity as we grow the business without adding much headcount. Asana serves the very important project management purpose without being a burden or overly complex to use--letting me spend as much time as possible on billable client work.
Colorful and Helpful
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it allows for the creation of different team/groups so we are able to keep the sensitive information (i.e. financial, etc.) from those who are not part of that specific group. It also allows us in tracking each task we created (for example an invoice to be billed to a client could be created as a task, all with invoice number, date of creation, etc.). I also like the aesthetic appearance of it, it lets you choose the background for Asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
I was not the one who implemented it within our company so as just a user, I do not see anything that I don't like at the moment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With our invoicing system within the company. We are able to track which invoices that have to be generated, and track progress for each of them, and we are also able to create the different stages that an invoice is generated till it is sent to the client.
A good tool to have for project management and keeping everything on track
What do you like best about the product?
Having due dates for multiple tasks and keeping alerts if deadlines are approcahing or skipped
What do you dislike about the product?
Not an easy to use tool, It requires me to walk through the tool to all my colleagues who join
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project Management, Task Management
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Its a good tool to have Project Management and Task Management using this tool
The project management software that suits my needs
What do you like best about the product?
I like its interface and the possibility of making gannts, for example, without using another software. Also, as the company where I work use Everhour to track time, having this tool integrated saves me a lot of time when doing my tasks. I think Asana is a very intuitive tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to be able to use the tool in its navigator version in my mobile phone without needing to download the app, as I have already a lot and the storage runs out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I'm solving organization problems, mostly. Before we use Asana, tracking our task was SO messy and no one actually remembered what we had to do urgently, what could wait. Its main benefit is that, as it's so easy to use, works like an interactive and shared agenda with all your team, It's great for growing companies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for an easy-to-use tool, that let you keep track of your tasks neatly and smoothly, you're looking for Asana.
Great for teams and to stay on top of your own tasks
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of creating tasks and being reminded actively. also love being able to have subtasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
Could have a better user interface and user experience. Would love if it could integrate with other platforms
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of tasks where all tasks can be seen easily in one place
Good intentions, if not a bit convoluted
What do you like best about the product?
I like that this service facilitates strong communication between me and my supervisor. This is to say that it is much more difficult to be on different pages when all of my assigned tasks are clearly laid out.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the number of reminder emails that I receive because if I have already put something in my calendar, I do not need a bunch of notifications. I am sure there are ways to change this, but this was not obvious to me.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Problems I am solving with Asana include communicating efficiently with my busy supervisor who, when and where she wants to check my progress, can open up Asana and check my comments/completed tasks, etc.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It definitely is a very helpful tool, but it requires a lot of organization from the supervisors of various projects to assignment by assignment input steps their team needs to take. This may not be fitting for every industry every time. For research it was!
Efficiency at its best
What do you like best about the product?
For non organizers this is a wonderful tool because it allows you to put your thoughts and things to do into a task and tag all the necessary to turn that idea into something tangible.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana offers several different ways to manage projects.Sometimes its valuable to have all the views for one project and while there are hacks it'd be nice to have a out the box hybrid solution,
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team is small but works cross functionally driving internal and external projects. Because we are so multi faceted and can be taken away on a project at any given time it allows managers to have better insight into the bandwidth of their team and adjust accordingly to meet goals while not overburdening one person.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Evaluate how you like to look at projects. The other thing to consider is the communication aspect. With it being tied to to other software it makes it easy to respond to stakeholders and see progress all in one source.
Love this tool
What do you like best about the product?
Its free and comes with a lot of options to collaborate in that free version. Helps me keep track of a lot within my freelance work.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isnt a lot that I dislike. Its great!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's great! Helping me with time management and accountability
Best for task tracking & communication
What do you like best about the product?
Most flexible and fast tool with free version. Really helps to manage dependencies by looking at the Timeline and allocate tasks
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana Premium costs per person for a year should be less and there should be a two-step verification for messages to make it secure to our personal data
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Manage various tasks through the platform since it is very easy to use for everyone
Online tool to organize projects efficiently and productively.
What do you like best about the product?
With this tool we can know in real time the status of tasks and projects, create, assign and comment on tasks with ease, to know at all times what is being done and who is doing it. We can receive notifications without requesting it. It also allows us to reduce the number of emails and meetings since each team member will be able to see the tasks assigned to them, as well as monitor the progress of other tasks, which is very advantageous for us. We can work as a team regardless of physical location, we can even work from home or from another country. The comment feature allows us to ask questions, receive feedback on the work, receive suggestions, among others. All tasks and updates are synchronized and in the cloud, so the information is always backed up and secure, which makes it very attractive for work. All the people assigned to a project can consult the files and documents of a project without having to request them by mail, which speeds up our work and decision making.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana does not adapt very well to complex projects that involve budgets, risk management, cost calculations, does not have management diagrams, certain parts are not very intuitive. However, it has improved its performance in terms of software speed. It has had a considerable growth in the number of functionalities such as chronology, integrations with Gmail and Outlook, home reform, etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
One of the things that has cost us the most to organize, were those projects that had several layers of tasks. But with this project manager, we can use the tasks as ideas, notes or reminders, and within them we can list series of subtasks that show us the same functions as normal tasks, therefore, we can create within them another list of subtasks . It is a very versatile tool. It allows us to customize tasks and projects, when we detect series of tasks that are repeated several times, we can create a template type checklist to copy and paste every time we need it. We can also schedule a reminder or a task that we know we should do every week or every month, so as not to have to depend on a brain or always write it on a calendar.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a productivity solution of exceptional quality for project planning and task management. However, it should not be confused with large-scale project management software involving important planning such as risk management, budgets and resources. For the rest of the projects, Asana proposes full functionalities in terms of collaboration and productivity. Its free version is sufficient in companies with up to ten users. Small businesses can move to the premium version at any time.
