Effective for Task Management, but Pricing Challenges for Small Teams
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate Asana for its effectiveness in managing tasks within our church and staff. The platform's ability to assign tasks and organize staff meetings has significantly enhanced our efficiency. The feature I find most valuable is being able to open Asana and immediately see what tasks I need to accomplish for the day, which streamlines my daily workflow. I also like the customizable rules provided by Asana, which allow us to control the visibility of information according to our needs. These capabilities have made a substantial difference in how we organize and execute our responsibilities.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it challenging that Asana's pricing structure doesn't offer flexible options for small teams like ours. We run a small church and need to add more users, but the plan jumps from five users to ten without intermediate options. This results in a significant increase in cost, which is difficult to justify for just a couple more users. Additionally, the initial setup of Asana was daunting, and we relied heavily on our daughter's experience with the platform to get started. Without her guidance, the setup would have been much harder for us. She was already using it at her church
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to track what everyone is doing and assign tasks, improving our church staff's effectiveness. It provides a clear view of tasks and calendars, enhancing our productivity and organization.

The notification and access settings when having multiple users.

Effortless Form Creation with Helpful Tutorials
What do you like best about the product?
Forms and templates are easy to create, and the video tutorials are very helpful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I get too many emails to remind me of tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of the project's progression and assigning tasks.
Effortless and Easy, real-time Task management tool
What do you like best about the product?
What I like most about Asana is that it’s very clean and easy to use, so managing my tasks doesn’t feel messy or confusing. The team can assign task to me and I can assign task to my team mates and see the status on real time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I find Asana a bit overwhelming because it has so many features and options, which makes it tricky to quickly find what I need. The free plan feels limited, so to really use Asana properly, you have to go for a paid subscription. The need to use asana doesnt arise in case you are using Teams, since you can keep track of your task on teams. So I feel Asana has limited use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps solve the problem of keeping all tasks, projects, and deadlines in one place so nothing slips through the cracks. It’s great for teamwork because everyone can see who’s doing what and share updates right away. For me, this cuts down on back-and-forth emails and extra meetings, and it’s clearer what needs to be done and when. It helps me to assign task and it is real time so that any task that comes in mind need not be taken on note pad and then be discussed with team mates but can be done on real time.
Helping Shape Stakeholder Management and Collaboration
What do you like best about the product?
In my current role, I have utilized Asana to stay in contact with multiple stakeholders or manage project/activity needs. It is very useful at helping yo keep track of roadmaps and frameworks while also helping to coordinate digital learning rollouts. Since I manage a committee, this has helped me assign action items to various members, and track goals, keeping everything centrally located to our work.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is a separate platform. Sometimes individuals and teams do not see the need for another PM program. If everyone isn't using it together, you get limited results. I also wish there was a better storytelling/storyboarding feature. Because of this I have to utilize separate apps to design frameworks, and track assessment, like Miro or Lucidchart, etc. More of an all in one platform would be more ideal and limit bouncing from program to program, especially considering Asana is a PM platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Honestly, one of the biggest issues in L&D management, is dealing with multiple stakeholders across timezones and regions globally. This helps centralize that into one location, being able to consolidate people into groups to manage easier, notify, etc.

Effortless Collaboration, Exceptional Efficiency
What do you like best about the product?
I love how Asana is incredibly easy to use and learn, making it accessible even to those who are not tech-savvy. This ease of use does not limit its functionality; rather, it provides immense flexibility for unconventional tasks. Generally, I can determine a way to get things done without feeling restricted by the system. Creating templates for our work at the start of each client engagement is something I greatly enjoy. Launching these templates has allowed me to assign roles effectively and organize work into two-week sprints, enhancing our start processes by making them swift, efficient, and professional. Another aspect that I find exceptionally valuable is Asana solving the need to clarify, agree upon, and consistently apply our processes. This functionality streamlines our operations, leading to greater efficiency. I am also impressed with how Asana lets me partake in workflow specialist training online, which set the foundation for more intricate, tailored build-outs tailored to our department's needs. Having this structured support has been pivotal in our success. My overall satisfaction with Asana even motivated me to recommend it to my daughter, resulting in her adopting it in her new company.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find Asana somewhat lacking in terms of integrations. While there are many already available, I believe there could be more connections with commonly used platforms to enhance its utility. Additionally, I wish Asana were not just a project management tool but also a place where I could house and process data that the tool could reference directly. Currently, we have to use workarounds like connecting through Airtable to manage our data, which feels cumbersome.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana clarifies our processes, enabling consistent, efficient use, and allows me to create templates for quick, professional client engagements.
User-Friendly and Seamless Integration for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
It's extremely friendly user, it integrates very easily and very well with other apps, and it offers a good number of internal features that aid project management initiatives.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's a bit hard to get support from their Staff, Ive tried to get support 2 times now and the push back to not ask for support its pretty irritating, but not a dealbreaker honestly.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It keeps track of our clients design and development requests, it allows to collaborate with external teams very efficiently.
Clean Interface and Effortless Project Tracking
What do you like best about the product?
I like how it would make us to have a task and keeping everything at a single place also interface of app or webapp is so clean and easy to use and it helps me tracking the project in very easiest way
What do you dislike about the product?
When there are too many tasks so it will be bit difficult to understand and scrolling will be too more
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is helping me to manage projects and even taking the updates from mutiple projects at a single time
