Very forward-thinking task list management tool for cross-functional teams
What do you like best about the product?
The way you create tasks within lists and combine them into multiple projects, across all the teams involved.
What do you dislike about the product?
Mac App would be nice to have and some better visual customizability like Dark mode.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keep tracking of what is needed for which element in our workflow. Great tool to get the team involved.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Look into some of the features they are working on. It will be the tool of the future. Fascinating!
Great project management tool for teams
What do you like best about the product?
At Boot Camp Digital, we use Asana every day! It was easy to figure out right away, and it didn't take long for my team to start setting up projects and adding tasks. My team has liked the integration with our other tools and the ability to communicate and assign tasks to each other.
What do you dislike about the product?
We wish there were more of the team functions in the free version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With a virtual office, it's super helpful to know what everyone's working on, what is coming, etc. We don't have to guess or keep checking in on each other, and we can all easily assign each other tasks as needed.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you like the Discussions feature in Basecamp, this product is going to be a little lacking. It's still a great software though, so finding an alternative might be a good option.
Best Project Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
The best thing in ASANA is that it is very easy to use. No need to wait to load the open and close subtasks and wait for it to load again. You can just click and you will see all the things you needed. It doesn't slow down the loading time even though the conversation is too long already.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is pricey. The heartbreaking part is when it is very effective to use but the company have to let go using it because we can't afford it as we hire more employees.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The back and forth. It is because you can see the whole task thread easily. Nobody is being left out. We can pass a task from one shift to another without hassle.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
They must avail this if they are really having trouble in tracking tasks. It is also surprisingly effective at clients communications too especially to us who deals with Web Design clients. Every discussion is there, any changes is there as well. So, even if you are about to continue the project that was left by another employee, you will not have any trouble at all. You can just accept the task and do it!
Not User Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to collaborate with co-workers. Asana makes it easy to collaborate. I like that you can easily see and filter out which tasks you need to accomplish within a specific timeframe. The one thing that I liked the best was the ability to add a recipient to each task. It was helpful for sorting out who was supposed to be doing what task. Tasks were not overlooked because each task had a person or people assigned to it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't think the interface is very user friendly. I ultimately did not continue using Asana as it was not as user friendly as I would have liked and it seemed to take too much time to learn than what it is worth. It was useful for the time period we needed it for at the time, but I don't think we will be continuing to use it in the future.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration. Task Management. Time management. Our team benefited from collaboration, task management and time management tools. We were able to successfully track and complete projects and tasks that would have easily been overlooked and forgotten if we had not used the software. We benefited from Asana to complete a large project. The collaboration tools helped us to keep track of who was supposed to do what.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Asana to anyone who needs assistance with team collaboration and time and task management. Asana is helpful to keep work flowing and time sensitive tasks accomplished.
Asana: Perfect for Digital Filing Needs
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is amazing because it can keep all of your digital paperwork in an organized manner per project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is a strong application that is organized but at times could do better in it's organization of it's calendars and sections within a project
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I know where all the paperwork for every project is and know I can rely on it if I ever need to go back and find anything
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's very good about keeping files organized and searchable. The amount of tabs can get overwhelming if not maintained well
User Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
It's easy to use. Easy to create tasks, and helpful when you have recurring tasks that your need to get done every week. A great way to keep things organized and helps you not forget anything.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not as helpful for tasks that only happen once. It's still ok, but more ideal for recurring tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps managers see what has been completed and helps me keep on tasks.
Asana keeps remote teams on-track
What do you like best about the product?
Calendar of tasks with color codes! Ability to create multiple projects and assign tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can’t think of anything I dislike about the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We work with several contractors on the opposite coast, so Asana solves “after hours” communication
Asana is the best Company and project managment tool
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great to organize a comapny and its projects. Great use of Multiable organizations and projects within them. Task tracking is great with comments and task statuses. Ability to switch a project into a board instead of a list is also a massive plus. The intergration with outside tools like git and slack is also a very big plus.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be over complecated and very daunting to new users. If you start a Asana organization from scratch you wont have this problem. But if you are introduced to a slack that has been used for years its can take alot of time to get used to it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is there to solve core issues of our company. We use it for clients ptojects to scope out the work and assign tasks. We also use it to keep track of company polices and accounting. Basically it can store and record every thing you need to do in a company and can be used by every single employee.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
No mater what size company you are then Asana is definatly worth it. Finding a tool that keep track of every inch of you business for projects to polices to recruitment is no easy task. But Asana does that perfectly and I higly recommend it. You do not need the paid version unless you want to have massive teams but in general they allow 15 users per team so its quite big.
Asana helps me organize projects and make lists
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can share lists with team members and make comments and notes about each task. It is also helpful to assign tasks to different people, it makes it easy to work with a team. I like how I can separate and colour code my projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the way the side bar is designed, it makes it difficult to find projects. I also found the free version very limited.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows me to collaborate with others on projects in an organized manner. It is easy to share and invite others to join. I like using the app that helps me stay organized when I am away from my desk.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend Asana to anyone wanting to better organize their projects. I like that there is an app that you can use on the go. And it is good for collaborating with others.
Works great for task management but needs updating
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy how easy Asana is to use to track your progress with the project. My team and I are able to see how far we are from completion.
What do you dislike about the product?
There were times I would forget to sign in so I wish there was a better notification system. Some of the features are outdated and need to have better functions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana to track instructional design progress with Quality Matters courses.
