Keep your projects moving forward and don't forget the details
What do you like best about the product?
Helps me keep track of the details for all of the many projects for my job. Syncs with an app on my phone to keep me doubly organized.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's designed for larger teams. Which is great except it's just me. The free level doesn't have all the features I want (i.e. templates and timelines) but I don't have a team either so I am paying for more than I am using.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My job is comprised of many different overlapping detail oriented projects that we cycle through annually (fall fundraiser, winter fundraiser, fall concert, spring concert, registration...) I use Asana to make sure I stay on track.
Basic project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Interface is user friendly. No need for lenghty tutorials on how to use this platform as it's very intuitive and straightforward.
Love the multiple functionalities like assigning tasks, calendar view, multiple commenters, etc.
Love the multiple functionalities like assigning tasks, calendar view, multiple commenters, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Notifications could improve, not sure if this is strictly related to the app version but sometimes I either don't get a notification or it gets lost with the others. That could improve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time management, project planning, assigning work to other team mates, keeping track of each individual's performance and plan tasks accordingly. Overall it's a great tool for the everyday user and small companies.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This tool is very useful if you have a small company or want to organize your household. I would recommend for multiple projects and its ease of use.
Asana -not your average project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Love the ability to create ownership over tasks, reminders, and communication tools embedded in the tool, and the celebrations as you complete tasks on your project.
What do you dislike about the product?
I sometimes can't find different resources that have been linked to the project. There are so many different places files and resources can be added that I think they sometimes get lost depending on who's working the project and their individual workflows.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are implementing new clients using Asana. This allows us to ensure we are meeting key task and implementation milestones while also keeping the customer accountable for the tasks they need to complete themselves. Its also a great way for us to house resources for the project that the client can then refer back to indefinitely.
Definite help in accomplishing projects
What do you like best about the product?
I was a paper planner person until Asana. I loved checking things off my to-do list. But Asana allows me to do that and keep track of everything digitally. It has finally allowed me to move to a completely digital to-do list.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think there was a bit of a learning curve as I hadn't found one of these online project management tools I enjoyed previously, but there were many features I could start using right away. The more complex project planning just took a bit of learning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working across teams is a lot easier with Asana, as well as tracking due dates. I am not a procrastinator, and it allows me a very easy way to follow up on the status of various projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for project management help that also offers calendaring and helps with working across or within teams, I would highly recommend Asana.
The best tool for Ops tasks in my opinion
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, super helpful tool to arrange and track operations tasks with my Ops Manager.
What do you dislike about the product?
Only one user can be assigned to a task at a given time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps me to organise my tasks, and coordinate and work with my Ops Manager easily.
Great project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use. Integrations with email, calendars, etc. Use project details for not only projects, but for weekly agenda conversations, too. Also like the multiple view options it provides: Overview, List, Timeline, Calendar, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because of all of Asana's features, you can quickly overcomplicate project management. In a way, it can become a time-suck to update your projects (if you aren't careful!).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Use Asana to consolidate our weekly team status conversations and for project management among ou team. Also use it for management of our content calendar, blog, social, etc.
Positive project management and workflow software
What do you like best about the product?
I like the communication pipeline that comes with each workflow. The chat function with each assignment along with the like or approval buttons makes employees feel like managers care about their work!
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel the teams set-up can often be clunky. I think short term projects can easily be lost as well if it's just a one-time cross functional team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication on assignments and deadline management when I have competing projects.
Wonderful Product for team based work management
What do you like best about the product?
Asana makes it easy to collaborate between the various team for projects and tasks. The Gantt chart enables us for efficient project planning that we can visualize all the related activities. Unlimited resource space is a great advantage.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not much downside that I can think of while using this software. It's a great project management and workspace collaboration software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is a solution for all-in-one software. The previous tool we were using required too many integrations with another app to complete a project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a wonderful product
How asana helped me to manage my work?
What do you like best about the product?
Usually, I work on 4-5 projects at the same time. So, working with all the teams simultaneously for home and getting reminders of deadlines are two best things.
What do you dislike about the product?
Grouping tasks ProjectWise was the most boring thing to do on Monday. Asana should provide group task ProjectWise.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Management of different teams, handling Interns, tracking project timeline, and finding bottleneck problems faced during any project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If your team or company is facing problems related to management. You should consider Asana. It will help to manage your team and find problems.
The Future is getting closer and closer
What do you like best about the product?
I liked the interface of the application, very interactive and easy to use, mainly now when we are still suffering from a pandemic; it came to help and a lot in work at a distance. I also really liked how project management is done (especially excel), and its highest point is the focus on helping the user in your organization.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing in particular that I haven't liked out of the delay it sometimes takes to confirm the account email. Maybe the app could be better optimized for android users and send more notifications but nothing too wrong.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
solved many problems I had in working with my employees at the time of quarantine, and even at this very moment, I still use Asana to help organize my workflow very simply
