Life. Saver.

  • May 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana streamlines everything. Where I was getting task assignments through 5+ outlets (and failing to keep track of 50%), Asana ensures that all tasks are in one place, sends me notifications on due dates, allows a one-stop-shop for all relevant information, and is generally such a life saver.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notifications are automatically set to email users for every task, and for people who are unaware that there is a mobile app and only rely on the email notifications, Asana clutters inboxes and does not streamline work processes. However, once users realize that there is a mobile and browser application, all problems are solved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I don't lose track of assigned tasks anymore; I am able to communicate and clarify tasks and instructions right in the app through comments. Users can upload graphics, categorize tasks according to bigger projects, and follow other people's tasks to stay up-to-date.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it. Just use it.

Asana is pretty good

  • May 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great, straightforward project management tool. I found it really helpful for being able to keep project details all in one place, as well as to be able to easily track my day-to-day tasks. Being able to see a record of comments is very helpful as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't really say anything on my end that I dislike about Asana. I have had issues with clients having difficulty / confusion locating files that were uploaded to individual tasks. Our management ended up switching from Asana to another product that was more highly customizable.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management. I found that it was great to be able to keep all your project details in one spot and was really easy to use. It helped to keep me organized and on track.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Before choosing asana, I would make a list of all the functionality that you need and make sure that it is in-depth enough for your needs. I found Asana to be a really straightforward, easy to use project management tool. However, my superiors at my current company found that they needed more in depth tracking functionality and we ended up switching over to Wrike.

Easy to use, full featured task and project manager

  • May 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I think Asana is one of the easier task apps to use, and getting team members going on it was fairly pain free. The structure of Projects > Tasks is what you'd expect, and they do it well and intuitively. Assigning tasks to team members is great, and being able to communicate within those projects/tasks right in Asana is very useful.

The free version offers enough to scratch the itches and get the job done. The features that are behind the pay wall are not necessarily crucial, but can be very useful for a scaling business.

And of course, Asana's integration with a myriad of other apps and services is pretty great.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing that is a little annoying is not being able to assign a task to multiple people. One person on a task may work for a lot of things, but not all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've been able to streamline our projects and tasks workflows. And it's helped keep a nice visual overview into what's going on in the company. And of course, the satisfaction of clicking checkmarks is addicting.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a lot of features on the free tier, Asana is great.

Asana is a sigh of relief in a heavily crowded work monitoring app market

  • May 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the quick relay time between the mobile and web apps. Its almost instantaneous and allows me to flow between devices seamlessly which in turn makes teamwork and communication extremely efficient as everything can be done on one program rather than updating on a separate program, then using another one to communicate whats been done, and another to ensure that that message has been received.
What do you dislike about the product?
As great as the information relay is, I feel the mobile app falls short when it comes to situations where you may have multiple projects with multiple team members. This limit the app faces is largely a hindrance to productivity. In addition, despite being able to see all tasks by project, you cant filter them to see only your tasks.. that should be changed imo.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like that I can use Asana to monitor and keep track of project progress, and how it prompts for the organization of a task into its components that helps to further elaborate on what needs to be done
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your agency runs multiple projects at the same time, remember that the mobile app is limiting in this regard and can ultimately limit project accountability. I would suggest that you take a look to see if your project needs are in line with Asana's ability to accommodate them

Asana is the brain of everything in business!

  • May 02, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the best place for an agency or really any size company to manage multiple projects. With everything perfectly categorized with an assignee and due date, the projects run smoothly.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no downsides to using Asana- They have incredible documentation that assists with any new user.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has streamlined the workflow, ensured to make sure deadlines get met, tracked differences in tasks, and syncs perfectly with other integrated programs.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Your business NEEDS Asana!

Easy to use, but not the greatest to navigate or organize

  • April 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like the simple interface of Asana and how easy it is to create a new project. My team all has different ways they like to set things up and this makes it convenient for us to do it however we want.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to keep track of all projects from a timeline perspective because a calendar view isn't really available. It's also not the easiest to pass a project down the pipeline from step to step and assignee to new assignee.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We needed a way to track projects and requests that was not using a Google doc and this definitely improved that system a lot.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend for personal goal and project tracking, but not necessarily for larger groups with multiple on-going projects.

Great project management tool

-The variety of ways to track projects (boards or more linear)
-Easy communication, notifications for tracking, collaboration
-The ability to assign tasks and due dates

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
-Project management on a small team
-Keeps things moving without unnecessary meetings

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you're looking for a tool to keep track of information on projects, collaborate with your team, make delegation easier and cut down on meetings, this could be it! Try it out :)

A good tool with its limitations

  • April 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that it promotes visibility and communication among teams. It is a great tool for collaboration because you can add team members as followers on tasks and stay updated on due dates.
What do you dislike about the product?
It really bothers me that one of the most helpful features, commenting on tasks, is also a roadblock - when you comment on a task, if you check it off as completed, the comments disappear from the task even if it is a recurring task. This creates issues among team members because it doesn't carry over day to day. I would love for comments on recurring tasks to carry over.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps everyone stay in the loop on what is going on across clients and stay on top of bandwidth issues as well.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is a good tool, although does come with its limitations.

Stay on track with your work.

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a great online platform that I can use on all devices. It is great for project management and tasks. It's great for projects as the calendar can be viewed on the go in the app or in my Outlook calendar. Everyone can enter a task as a personal task or public task. It's a good way to make sure it's not going to be a system of chaos. We can also share everything with clients in an easy way.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search function is not perfect. You can find most stuff, but it can also leave out some things every now and then. It can also be hard to find your way through different projects in overview. Everyone seem to have the option to delete and update tasks. It would be beneficial to be able to limit these kind of things. And in general it would be nice to be able to do some more customization - both for tasks and in specific projects
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a great tool for task management and project management. There are certain things that you just gotta remember and things that repetitive . Asana do it all. I do updates or what ever it takes. It's easy to get around and I even created an account to use privately as it is a good way to organize my life in general.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
There's a great free version. Think about if it's enough or if you need to upgrade. Also encourage user to use the product for other things than Project Management tasks. It's a good way to get control of your workload,.

It is a very useful and practical tool because it allows you to organize everything in one place

  • April 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?

It is a very versatile and efficient tool because it provides different types of functions that allow you to have everything in one place and thus be able to organize and reduce the time that the work group gives to routine tasks and that allows to clarify the priorities and house responsibilities one of the team members and you can monitor the progress of the projects
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the main drawback I had while using this software is that it disconnects very often, so you have to re-login what is something quite tedious
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is a very beneficial tool because it gives you the possibility to manage everything in one place and thus facilitate the fulfillment of the tasks and improve the performance of the team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

lengthen the waiting time so that the session does not close so quickly
