Great Task Management Tool to Increase Productivity

  • July 07, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can create tasks, share with colleagues, and even keep track of deadlines on calendars. This platform brings so many solutions together and makes the workflow simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
The pricing. The pricing is per month versus having a flat yearly rate.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Productivity and keeping track of tasks has become a no-brainer. Being able to create and share tasks, documents, and see them on a calendar with deadlines has helped me to organize better.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a one-stop shop of organization and workflow. The ways to organize tasks, share calendars, tasks, and files is amazing.

Easy to use simple Project Management tool

  • July 07, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Mobile app is easy to use. Integrates with Gmail and Zapier. Easy to see tasks from multiple projects in one list by due date. Ability to set recurring tasks was the best feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
No inbuilt time tracking.
No clarity on project or task priority.
Unable to see team workload to assess availability.
Unable to set expected timeframes for tasks/projects.
Each workspace is separate so you have to go into each one to view due tasks.
Sometimes would end up with duplicate tasks because one task applied to multiple projects.
Once the view type (list or board) was selected for a project you can't change it. I personally prefer the list view but other team members worked better with board view. Would've been good for the user to choose their own view of the info.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working as a digital services provider with a remote team we used Asana to track client tasks, map out tasks for bigger projects, mapping out SOPs, communicate with each other about tasks and queries.
Benefits: it was free, easy enough for new team members to learn, could also use it as a basic CRM/sales tracker.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great for startups and freelancers who want better project management than a to-do list app, but if you're looking for a platform with tracking and reporting this isn't the right app for you.

Great Project Management Software

  • July 05, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the look and feel of this project management system, it is also simple to learn and set up and it's a simple system for anyone to learn. I love the fact that you can switch between line views and the boards plus they've added additional options. They have also set it up where you can track tasks using Harvest right inside of the app per task which is great for Virtual Assistants or anyone billing by a task or by the hour. It's also a fun software, unlike some other software that is dry and unimpressionable Asana leaves you in a fun and playful mood.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do not like the fact that they do not offer a solo upgrade option, you have to pay for 5 seats in order to access the premium features which sucks because let's face it who wants to pay for 4 extra seats that you won't be using and may never use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project and task management. I've also recently started trying it out for my social media content planning and saving the posts that I'm planning and sending out using Sendible.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are a solo company then you will be disappointed in the fact that you have to pay for five seats in order to gain access to the premium features. Otherwise, if you're okay with limited features then this is a great and simple solution for your project and task management needs.

What do you like best about the product?
I like Asana because it has many ideal advantages to manage my projects, I like the function of timeline that offers and the ability to monitor the progress of other team members in common or interrelated tasks which allows the team in general to be efficient and have an easy follow up of everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are only two aspects that I do not like about Asana, the first is that once I select a format for a project, I can not change it and the other is that the boards are very basic.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It brings great benefit to my work since it allows me to see all my tasks as a list, a project in its entirety or separated into elements, I have also been able to see the projects of my teammates. Also, it has allowed me to add sub tasks to tasks, in general it is very useful.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a program that can help you keep up-to-date lists of tasks related to your project, and ensure that team members know and complete tasks in the deadlines of completion, is a very collaborative tool.

Asana is a project management tool that helps teams organize, track, and manage their work. It offers features like task assignments, project timelines, and progress tracking. Users appreciate its user-friendly interface and the ability to integrate with other tools. However, some find it overwhelming due to its extensive features. Overall, it's a valuable tool for improving team productivity and collaboration.

What do you like best about the product?
To-Do List View is very effective and efficient. Percent-Complete tracking is very helpful for task management. Mobile access is available. We can create Subtasks in this tool. Great tool for team collaboration and communication. Easy to use. Great user interface.
What do you dislike about the product?
No instant messaging feature available. We cannot assign priorities to a particular task in this tool. One feature is a bit unlikely as we cannot change the format for a project.

All my project management related issues are solved by this tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool, use it for the best project management.

Keeps Projects on Track

  • July 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love how easy everything is to set up! I use Asana for my events and its easy to assign tasks to others with deadlines. I also love that I can clone a project so I don't have to re-set up my tasks every time.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'm not sure. It would be great if I could drag and drop documents to create tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Event tasks assigned across a team of people. I can now see what I've assigned to team members and the deadlines all in one place rather than searching my inbox to see!

Useful project management

  • July 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
It makes the business process faster and turns everything into a trouble-free system. Asana service will make our lives easier. This tool organizes all notes and plans in a single list and keeps this information in one place. This makes it possible to easily manage targets.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are times when there is a slight delay in application accuracy. This is acceptable because it is a web-based application. You may also accidentally create a new vacant task due to some delay.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
  Asana's boards are very useful and useful. With the help of Asana, you don't have to search for all your notes, emails and records to manage your projects. All important things are kept in one safe place. As a result, you can easily coordinate all important tasks and projects.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is more flexible than a full-featured project management approach or system that I use. It works as a reliable system. However, as in all self-management, personal preferences are an important component. I found Asana complicated and difficult in regular use. But it will be extremely successful for the right person and the right project.

Fantastic Project Management Software

  • July 03, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is extremely simple to use. It's easy to move tasks around, create templates and even invite users to the platform. I've used many other project management tools in the past but Asana is by far my favorite.
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing I've been frustrated with was that our company was offered a beta/trial of a new feature. We invested time into getting it up and running and then we found out that it was going to be an add-on product. It is understandable but not communicated as well as it should have been.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have tried to get on the same page, streamline processes and get more done with limited resources. So far, we've been able to realize all of these goals and more.
