Seamless Collaboration for Cross-Functional Teams
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that Asana allows cross-functional teams to be in a single place. Teams from sales, creative, and operations can all use the same source of truth and collaborate within this single tool, which is great. Asana also solves the problem of having a single place that serves as the source of truth for project and deliverables status. It helps us assign due dates, manage dependencies, and maintain visibility, keeping us on track to drive key outcomes. Instead of relying on fragmented updates or communication, Asana ensures alignment across all of our teams so we can complete projects efficiently.
What do you dislike about the product?
At times, the features (notifications, boards, comments) can get overwhelming, but this is more of a user issue than anything. Any way to simplify would be great. For example, smart filter to focus only on high priority updates, or cleaner way to organize and collapse comment threads.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to track client projects and deliverables, serving as a single source of truth for project status. It helps assign due dates, manage dependencies, and maintain visibility, ensuring alignment across sales, creative, and operations teams for completing projects.

Effortless Collaboration and Organization with Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana for managing my projects. What I like most about Asana is how I am able to collaborate easier, making working with my peers smoother and more organized. The templates we've been able to create in Asana are fantastic, and without them, I know I would miss key dates. I really like being able to search projects my peers have done so I can get examples of what to do myself. I also appreciate how I am able to search projects with my peers and when I post something in my own groups section, it stays organized. The templates create all the necessary sub-tasks required to get a project off the ground smoothly. It was a seamless transition for me when I started using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I guess how quickly it sends emails and notifies others of things added. Sometimes it takes a bit longer to complete my task or project updates and the email has already been sent to my peers - and I wasn't ready for them to see it. I think a bit more of a delay would be helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana for managing projects, knowing timelines easily and templates make tasks smoother. It helps me collaborate and stay organized, and I can search peer projects for ideas.
Central hub has unified cross‑department tasks and provides clear ownership and communication
What is our primary use case?
Asana is used to manage all tasks, including purchase requests, facilities requests, legal matters, and accounting. Everything is funneled through Asana so that all tasks can be tracked.
A recent example involved working on a security purchase request for 2026, which required coordination with purchasing, accounting, and legal. Collaboration occurred with all three groups on a $500,000 purchase request, and it was funneled through Asana so all groups could see their status. This allowed for efficient communication about progress and resolution of questions.
Asana is used for everything and serves as the main hub for any tasks, including projects with engineering, making it essential for all groups to communicate and see each other's progress.
What is most valuable?
The best features Asana offers, once you become familiar with the system, include clarity in view and tracking of questions. For instance, if information is requested from legal and they respond, a record is maintained to track all comments and keep everyone updated.
Having that clear view and record of communication helps the team day to day by allowing management and staff to see current statuses and responsibilities. It clarifies whose responsibility it is and identifies any hold-ups with legal or engineering tasks, which keeps the organization organized.
Asana has positively impacted the organization by providing clarity for everyone, allowing visibility into who is working on what, from the VP of Operations down to maintenance, ensuring necessary parts are available. It functions as a clearinghouse for all information.
Collaboration has greatly improved with Asana. There is no longer a need to chase down accounting or engineering for project updates because information can be checked through comments. File attachment and messaging capabilities between different groups within Asana are helpful. Email notifications are received for updates relevant to tasks, combining Asana alerts with email for easy visibility.
The interface and notifications in Asana are appreciated because it integrates with email. Updates can be received even when not logged in, which keeps you informed.
Initially, it takes some time to understand the various details, but after extensive use, it feels second nature. Overall, satisfaction with Asana is high.
What needs improvement?
A rating of eight is given because a downside exists in that everyone has access and notifications are often received for projects that are not involved in, leading to quite a few emails daily, sometimes around sixty to eighty.
For how long have I used the solution?
Asana has been used for four years.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Asana's scalability is impressive, as the organization has grown from one facility in California to another in Washington State, increasing the workforce from one hundred to about four hundred fifty to five hundred people without any scalability issues throughout a four hundred million dollar construction project.
How are customer service and support?
No complaints have been heard about customer support for Asana. Work occurs closely with the IT group, and they have not reported any issues regarding support from Asana.
What was our ROI?
A return on investment has been seen with Asana primarily in time savings due to its instantaneous communication, acting as a single point for project discussions. There is no need to juggle multiple conversations across different platforms, and the search engine works effectively, allowing for pulling up historical data efficiently, which ensures all pertinent information is available.
What other advice do I have?
Advice to others looking into using Asana is that it will only work as well as your commitment to it. If you expect it to operate in the background without investing time, it will not surpass other project management tools. However, with one hundred percent commitment, satisfaction with Asana is very high. A rating of eight out of ten is given for this product.
