A powerful project management tool -very full featured
What do you like best about the product?
I like the range of options that are offered. Often tools, in particular project management tools, don't seem to have the features you need. Asana seems to cover almost all the bases. I love that the whole system doesn't solely rely on due dates. You can manage and arrange your tasks, under my tasks, even if no date is assigned to a task
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish Asana had better export functionality. I would also like to be able to group projects within a team (either folders, or groups under subcategories/sections). When you have many projects in, it can get challenging to find and organise them.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The ability to manage many complex projects and once. Keeping track of all the tasks that need to happen in the project while also tracking and managing all the tasks which I personally need to do and doing both of these things in a joined-up way.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a great tool for managing projects, either individually or collaboratively. It's very powerful, not the features on offer don't get in your way, you can use the ones you need and the rest get out of your way
A simplistic and well designed piece of software every team needs.
What do you like best about the product?
The user-friendly UI and easy-to-understand terminology make it easy to introduce to any new employee or friend that could benefit from it.
Your general task management is made simple to track.

What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest, there is not much to dislike. Take a look at their competition, and you will see that for yourself.
Perhaps more free to use functions, but that is me being picky.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
General communication in a team environment is usually quite tricky, but with Asana, it never feels like a problem.
When I have spoken to my Team about the ease of use it provides, we all agree that we would be lost without it.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
It has a tremendous free-to-use base, and once you use it for a while, you will see the benefits that the complete paid package can offer.
Asana - everything what we need
What do you like best about the product?
Asana enchanted me with its user-friendliness. Everything in this solution is clear, and the application works stable on all platforms, which gives the possibility to work on mobile devices. Using Asana makes the process of planning work and sharing responsibilities much more accessible.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest drawback I noticed is the lack of advanced task prioritization capabilities.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Using Asana, we have identified bottlenecks in many of our processes and are now reorganizing how we work.
An extremely organized project management tool for demand control
What do you like best about the product?
The product roadmap templates they provide are amazing and quite useful. For each project, we use this as a starting point. Also, the work can be viewed in many ways and the interface is simple to use. Overall, I enjoyed the experience and found this tool to be quite useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
The search feature could have been more effective. Sometimes it takes me to write very explicitly until I recognize what I'm trying to express and have to go a step further to designate a task as complete. This phase, I believe, could easily be eliminated because it adds time to the process.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Group roles, where I can delegate users to different projects and tasks, I can create a computerized rule, for example, how to automatically move a task somewhere. And I can easily coordinate illustrations to keep track of what's happening with a quick look at the calendar's perspective.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This platform offers a highly productive user experience. With all-in-one tools and features, dashbaord is quite attractive. It sends reminders based on project and task importance. When someone reaches a certain milestone or completes a certain activity, they are rewarded with unicorns. Overall, it's an excellent platform.
Excellent solution for strategy and project management
What do you like best about the product?
Automation is the best feature. I can assign a task to anyone, get an update, and set the trigger time ahead of schedule. I like that it gives us the flexibility to customize while giving us the opportunity to create project spreadsheet templates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the large number of email notifications you receive as a result of setting up alerts can be distracting and overwhelm your inboxes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our company uses Asana as a project management and collaboration tool, including traffic management, file storage and versioning, communication, and finance.
Awwesome project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the best project management tool. I have used asana to manage multiple projects based on customer requests and I really found it awesome. I was able to assign, manage tasks as per my expectations and my customer was able to see the updates on real-time basis.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have used asana for a few of the projects on customer request, as they were managing all the projects over there. I have not found anything which I did not like but I realize it is the good software from the one we are using on daily basis
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I was able to manage multiple projects on asana. I was able to create tasks, assign tasks and track them on a real-time basis. Moreover, I have added my team to the project and I was able to track every single task very easily
Staying Connected with Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the high level visibility Asana allows. I can view my workload within all of my active projects through Portfolios. Compared to its competitors, Asana is easier to navigate and resulted in a smaller learning curve.
What do you dislike about the product?
The downside of using Asana is it doesn't allow you to customize your view on the homepage. I would like to add notes to the projects
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have more productive 1:1 meetings due to Asana. I am able to share project updates in a consistent format. I am also more productive because I can prioritize my tasks by due date and I have built in reminders. I don’t have reminders on paper and it can result in a missed deadline.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend having a change management plan in place if you are rolling out Asana company wide. The tool itself is easy to use, but to ensure adoption, you will need to identify the quick wins in your organization.

Give it a try - make sure it aligns with current team tools you might use eg calendar, messaging etc. And push the team in your regular meetings to keep their tasks updated

What do you dislike about the product?
A lot to learn. However, when you become more familiar with the product and capabilities it makes sense.
Some advanced training and walkthroughs based on current workflows and business setup will really help users take Asana to the next level and likely upgrade.
