A helpful tool for to-do lists.
What do you like best about the product?
Several things I like:
I like that you can have comprehensive lists. Sometimes I have projects that have several to-do lists for parts of the projects and this keeps everything together yet separate. The sublists option is really, really helpful to keep things organized.
It's very helpful that you can tag lists to make it easier to find your information.

What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing really to dislike, I enjoy the layout and tools available (especially for free.) It would be nice if you could customize more of the features like color and fonts but that COULD be a service offered if you upgrade which I have not.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I just this for my small business, keeping track of to do lists. I am also currently incorporating the use into the non-profit I work for. It's also nice to log on and see your list but you can use your phone to get to the list when you are out and about.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take your time to really explore the features and watch tutorials online. There are a lot of free courses and advice so you can not waste time re-inventing the wheel.
Very Useful
What do you like best about the product?
Staying organized is easy in this program. It allows you to keep track of multiple projects at one time, and include collaborators, who can receive updates as the project progresses. The best part of the app is having the ability to set up clear deadlines, expectations, and instructions, in one organized place. Accountability is key in our business, and this allows us to track individual projects at the progress through the production process. Without some way to stay organized, we would be relagated to the old days of emails and post-it-notes.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were a way to set up more conditional filtering. The more projects you have, the harder it is to keep track of what each one's status is at any given time. I would like to see the service create a way to filter your projects by due date, status, and collaborator. It would make the app a lot more powerful if notification could be global for certain aspects, such as completion of projects, but select notifications for non-critical updates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Large group project management across multiple departments with upwards of 10 individuals. The software allows us to keep each other up to date on all of our pending projects without having to result to phone calls, text messages, or emails. Now we just check the app before we interrupt our colleague with status updates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a powerful organizational software that can be up and running quickly with new team members and collaborators.
Free and easy to use task management
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it's a free tool, yet full of features. It even has a mobile app that syncs well with the web site. My husband and I used it to keep track of all the tasks we needed to do to sell our house. It was nice to be able to assign different tasks to each other and mark them off as needed. We also added comments to the tasks whenever we'd make a phone call or needed to add any other notes. This is a great tool for business or personal use.
What do you dislike about the product?
The biggest complaint I've seen is regarding the performance of the app. I've seen people say that it is slow. This has never been a problem for me personally, but it might be worth Asana keeping an eye on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For business we have used the tool to track tasks and assign them to specific people. Asana also allows us to set due-dates which makes it easier for us to check in on the status of what everyone should be doing.
A powerful tool for teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about asana is the ease of use and the fact that you can separate large projects into smaller ones and assign them to a group of people.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have anything negative to say about the program.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are no business problems that I'm solving with Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Have the inbox notifications be sent to our Gmail accounts.
Great tool for small groups & teams to keep organized
What do you like best about the product?
This is very convenient for scheduling and managing large groups of tasks that span across departments or teams. The calendar feature is also very useful, as is being able to tag projects and organize by importance or level of urgency.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not a lot to dislike, although it would be great if it had more calendar integration in the lower plan levels.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Eliminates (as it claims) the need for massive email threads which copy entire departments or teams.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great tool, start with the free version and go from there! (It's the type of tool that grows on you)
Complex features convolute this interface
What do you like best about the product?
it used to be intuitive and clearly nest activities and outstanding items in a logical flow
What do you dislike about the product?
it has so many newfangled features and additional capabilities that it now lacks intuition and some project tasks and comments get lost in the layers
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
cross channel and dept project management
Mastering Tasks Like a Pro
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Asana allows subtasks for a major task. It helps you break down each component of a task to keep you on track with a workflow. Asana has features like assigning a time when a task is due.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, the only thing I dislike is not being able to enjoy the animation when you click off a task. The animation tends to appear in the background and not layers on the front part of your screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping organized on track with tasks. Having dates and time when tasks are done and having a master list of my tasks to keep me on track. I use it even for personal uses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Free version. Can not go wrong with trying it out. Excellent free version to try.
The best project management tool ever!
What do you like best about the product?
Where to start...I love everything about Asana! But I think the best part is how easy it is to use. Plus the user interface is easy on the eye ;) I also love the little animations every time I complete a task!! I've recommended this product to my husband and they've started using Asana for a month now and love it too!
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't like the fact that I couldn't put in start dates for a project but I see that it is now available in Premium :) Also don't like that you have to put a task into a project to be able to see it in the calendar view. Not sure if this has changed with all the upgrades...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Asana, there were projects that would get forgotten until the last minute, because the info was buried somewhere in my email inbox. We didn't know what projects the rest of the team was working on or how far along they were so if a team member was away from work and a client contacted us to find out we couldn't actually give any feedback. Now we have easy access to what everyone is working on, we know exactly what's outstanding on each project. Information for each project is stored in one place, so no more trying to wade through emails!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Just try it...and you'll wonder how you ever survived without it!

Best project/task management software I've used
What do you like best about the product?
The integration between Asana and Instagantt. It makes resourcing for multiple projects a breeze. Fantastic integration with instagantt and Harvest.
What do you dislike about the product?
The limited permissions, that any user can mark complete and edit dates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team schedule planning and progress tracking.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
