Asana for Organizing your Internal and External Work Projects - Great for Remote Teams

  • January 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes it simple to keep our team organized. With ability to setup projects and recurring tasks, we gain efficiencies and everyone can see the work and history.
What do you dislike about the product?
I really don't have any downsides to mention other than I wish I could archive old tasks in a better way. We have a lot of recurring tasks and I really only want to see those that are active and not the long list of things completed as well. I still need them but I'd like to clear my space of them from active ones.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our team is able to be organized and in-tune with the status of projects in a much more efficient manner. It gives us a cloud-space to keep all digital assets and makes notes/comments to show history and tag people who need to know something.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are still using email to keep organized or spreadsheets, it's time to move to a robust online portal like Asana.

Helped me manage multiple ongoing projects with ease!

  • January 03, 2022
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The labels, the clean layout, plus its so simple to use. I especially like being able to assign tasks to others and keep track of ongoing projects with multiple activities to complete for each.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be better sharing images/docs, or offer a timeline view. I do wish the print option had more features to customize the layout on the page so when reviewing the printout it wasn't all jumbled.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing multiple ongoing projects. Managing tasks involving several people. Tracking the progress of projects, staying on top of key tasks, not missing deadlines.

Best Free PM Tool

  • December 29, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I have used Asana at two different companies now, to help with marketing project management. I have always used Asana in a free capacity. Compared to it's competitors that also offer free versions, I found Asana to be the easiest to use. There is actually a lot of functionality within the free version, especially if you use it as an individual tool to keep your projects on track or with a small team.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's not much to say here. Although, I do wish that the free version came with a Gantt Chart view. Also, when connecting Asana to your Google Calendar, the Google Calendar notifications don't go away when you complete the task in Asana which is mildly irritating. I also wish it connected to ninety.io!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I have used Asana for marketing campaign management and to keep my daily and weekly to-do list organized. It has helped me manage people and processes -- I can see which employees are completing their tasks and time and use Asana to help guide our project progress meetings.


    Program Development

Becoming ever more robust

  • December 28, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is continuously adding new integrations and supporting features. It is easy to add people and manage projects, and we're continuously unpacking all the options within Asana. It is a robust and hearty tool that can really help teams of all sizes.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a relatively pricy solution for a small company. It also isn't entirely intuitive in some of the nuances. The integrations aren't all fluid - particularly when we have to involve a 3rd party resource such as Zapier. The automations are improving, but aren't where we would like them to be just yet to be helpful in our project planning and task assignment. I particularly would like to see a better Google Mail or Chrome integration as it is particularly clunky.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're a small team but juggling a large amount each. We have many channels of communication but Asana acts as our repository for all tasks and needs, future, past and in progress. Our team needs to take more time to unpack all the power that is in this program, allowing us greater efficiency and optimizing communication.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It is far better than any of the tools we vetted previously.
Our team needs to take more time to unpack all the power that is in this program, allowing us greater efficiency and optimizing communication. I would recommend investing in the time and energy to set up Asana from the outset, examine the integrations and the automations/templates, and begin on the right foot instead of growing into it slowly.

A friendly tool for organised and management tasks with priority

  • December 27, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is very simple and sleek. It is pretty easy to use. It has good speed to upload and download the files., photos, videos, and docs over the platform. Its both versions on the web and mobile are great and work amazingly well. By creating tasks and their priority, we can track down the progress and deadlines within the app, and it sends notifications as the deadlines come near.
What do you dislike about the product?
The notifications for different tasks and projects pop altogether, and there is no base of priority for the notifications. But with the new update, the colors are slightly faded. I'm expecting to see those colors and attractiveness again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is one of the best tools in the market, and it is helping me a lot in managing my work peacefully. Also, it is making me learn how to prioritize the tasks based on the urgency of the project and complete the project and create reports for progress and issues and share with the team and solve problems within the same platform.

What do you like best about the product?
UI is great! Easy to drag and drop tasks, assign timelines of tasks. Track task progress, manage teams, can easily assign tasks to individuals with document links.
What do you dislike about the product?
To be honest, I could not find anything to dislike, it would have been better if there were multiple assigning of people. Also, the platform is crowded with a lot of features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team management
Task management
Deadline of tasks management
Agile methodology implementation for software tasks
Multi-functional team tasks under one roof is something that helps me to solve work at the office

best digital organizer

  • December 23, 2021
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
What I found helpful about asana is that not only do I have access on my computer but also on all my devices so it all syncs up. I also find asana useful when keeping organized for my business in all aspects. It keeps me organized for just about anything. I love to color coordinate so that was a plus when keeping track on my calendar of what I need to do.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it made a sound when I accomplished something or reminded me when I have something coming up. What they can do to make it better is to add on a bell or something like that. Plus the ease of the color coordination can be better. I don't like that when I do a task I have to add it on my calendar to make it a specific color.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problem that asana is solving for my business is the ability to not just have myself look at the tasks for the day but my team. It's easy to access and everyone can contribute.Also, I can be specific to what I want to focus on in terms of making it a favourite which I will see and be able to focus on. Thats great. I also love that I have options of how I view each task. I can view each task like a list where you can check off. A board where it is in a specific group. Then last we have calendar and files which for obvious reasons that's great to have in terms of dated tasks for the business.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can use Asana not just for business but for just about anything you want to organize in your life. If you gravitate more to a task view, or board view this is perfect for you. PLus if you like things color coordinated this is also great.
