Intuitive Workflows, Needs Enhanced Automation
What do you like best about the product?
I like that there is a system in Asana for every type of task. I enjoy having access to the workflows I've created and being able to see workflows created by my coworkers, which helps me understand how they organize their process and figure out effective ways to communicate with them. I also like the AI features that help solve complex problems.
What do you dislike about the product?
The rules, I would like AI to make a rule for me simply. I tried for about 15-30 mins and couldn't get it to do what I wanted.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana for organizing tasks, tracking progress, planning with coworkers, and leveraging AI to solve complex problems. I appreciate accessing workflows to learn and improve communication with my team.

Task allocation for the team is very useful for monitoring project progress and reporting to the client. We use it most often for internal team project and task management.
Automation and Collaboration Made Easy
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy the automation features in Asana. The automation helps in understanding when one task is done, it needs to automatically kick off the next task for the next phase in the project. I also like the commenting features where I can house all project updates and keep a clean update on next steps and conversations tied to each project action item. The initial setup was great.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to track time for my freelancers in Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Top-Notch Task Management for a Small Team
What do you like best about the product?
Task management is top notch for a small team
What do you dislike about the product?
The MCP server integration and APIs should be much better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using it as a main task management and planning tool for our PM team.
User-Friendly Platform with Time-Saving Dashboards
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana to manage my grant team of 11 people, and it absolutely helps with communication, adhering to due dates, and centralizing information. I love the dashboard feature that gives me an overall view of progress and allows me to see a snapshot of everyone's task progress, which saves me time. I also love the "Curated Work" section; it is like a "one-stop shop". I use this section to pin all the necessary forms and documents that my team needs to perform their duties. Lastly, the thing I love most is that it is extremely user-friendly; I got my team up and running in a very short time. I also appreciate the 'Total task by completion status' feature, which is valuable for quickly seeing task completion status and saves me a great deal of time. The initial setup was extremely easy!
What do you dislike about the product?
The only potential issue thus far has been related to adding licenses. We needed 10 additional 'seats,' but were required to purchase 20 because of the number of 'seats' we already had. This could be cost-prohibitive for some and possibly hard to 'justify' to administrators.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to manage my grant team, improving communication and adherence to due dates. It centralizes information, and the dashboard gives an overview of progress, saving time and aiding proactive task management.
Asana’s Flexible Views and Smooth Integrations Keep Our Team in Sync
What do you like best about the product?
Asana's UI is one of its strongest assets, the ability to toggle between list, board, timeline, and calendar views means every stakeholder sees work the way they think about it, which alone reduces alignment meetings. Integrations with Slack, Google Drive, and Microsoft Teams are smooth and genuinely save time; getting a Slack notification when a task is updated keeps the whole team in sync without logging in constantly. Performance is reliable even across large, multi-team projects. The AI-powered task suggestions and auto-prioritization features are a nice touch, though still maturing. Onboarding new team members is relatively painless thanks to intuitive UX, most people are productive within a day or two without formal training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Pricing scales up quickly once you need advanced features like timeline, workload management, or reporting, what starts as an affordable tool can become a significant line item for mid-sized teams. The native reporting and dashboards feel limited compared to dedicated BI tools; getting meaningful cross-project insights often requires exporting data elsewhere. AI features are present but still feel surface-level, more of a roadmap promise than a current differentiator. Support response times can be slow on lower-tier plans, and onboarding resources, while plentiful, are often too generic to address specific enterprise use cases.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana solves the chaos of managing multiple workstreams across teams that don't share a common way of tracking work. Before using it, project status lived in a mix of emails, spreadsheets, and Slack threads, making it hard to get a clear picture of what was on track and what wasn't. Now, cross-functional dependencies are visible, task ownership is unambiguous, and stakeholders can self-serve on project status instead of waiting for an update. The biggest benefit has been the reduction in coordination overhead, fewer status meetings, fewer dropped balls, and faster escalation when something is genuinely at risk
Simple UX/UI that optimizes tasks and time tracking in remote teams
What do you like best about the product?
It has a quite simple UX/UI and allows for optimizing task creation and time tracking review to have detailed organization, especially in remote work teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes, closing tasks on different boards is quite complex, and you have to enter each one separately to be able to do it.

Streamlined Communication, Needs Better Notification System
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how easy it is to use Asana. It's quick and simple. The templates are really easy and well put together, which works really well for how we use it. Setting it up was super easy too, we just got everyone an account signed in and we were off to the races.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I don't think Asana notifies clients when a task needs to be reviewed. I would appreciate not having to constantly tag our clients to get approval. I wish there was a better way to do that. Also, using Asana with Slack can be super annoying because I don't like having three notifications go off at once.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to help organize my business and ensure everyone stays on task. It solves communication problems, making sure client projects and tasks are done on time.
Great tool for teams and individuals to plan and track progress smoothly.
What do you like best about the product?
Asana let's us organize as a team, but sharing tasks between projects gives individuals the ability to customize their own system. Also, linking documents to tasks helps streamline communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
None of the challenges are specific to Asana. We just need to take time to learn all of the features and commit to the tool as a team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
