Good for some things

Keeps Colleagues Current
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing about Asana is the way you can check off tasks and having those updates keep all staff on the same page.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are parts of Asana that are redundant or unnecessary. The interface could be a lot cleaner. I think it would be nice to have to do checklists on the first page, since that is what we mostly used it for. Also, the Asana app is considerably worse than the computer browser version. The app glitches and at times does not sync that I have completed tasks. Also when a manager assigns a task to more than one person, the checklists glitch sometimes and don’t update.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Asana my project’s team had no good way to be up to date on tasks completed. It was really helpful for us specifically because we were working on an educational video game experience for our university, so our team spanned over several departments. Asana made it easier for Animators, Management, Sound engineers, Educators, and I, as the sole Graphic Artist, to stay current. It was quite a feat, and Asana made things easier.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you’re having trouble staying on the same page, Asana is a great tool. It certainly helped us make better use of our time and get tasks done quicker.

What do you like best about the product?
There are so many parts of Asana that I love, but the biggest benefit is the ability to add design files for various tasks along with the ability to create repetitive tasks. Both of these features allow my team to focus on getting tasks done while collaborating with team members.
What do you dislike about the product?
I'd say that it'd be great to have an end date for repetitive tasks. I also don't like how tasks that have a start and end date show in the task list view. For members that don't use the calendar view do not see these tasks until they're due.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to manage all of our marketing efforts. From content calendars, to on-going maintenance tasks, to special campaigns, we're able to track these easily.
