What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the functionality and I very much look forward to diving in to really get my head around how the Forms and AI features work and how they can improve our efficiencies. It's easy to use, and there is a great knowledge base to refer to if you need to figure out how to do something.
What do you dislike about the product?
The way that dependencies work is a bit frustrating for our business, only because we had thought they would trigger a deadline (eg, if the task in the template is set up as task B is dependent on task A and task B is due +3 days after task A, the deadline date for task B is still based off the project start date and not a timeline that starts once the blocking task is complete).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are currently working to organize our workflows so that we can remove the need to go through emails and texts and whatsapp groups to get all the information you need about a particular project and streamline it so that we have everything, and all communication around a project, within the project in Asana.

What do you dislike about the product?
While Asana offers great functionality, some users may find its complexity overwhelming, especially when first getting started. The free version has limited customization and reporting tools, which might be restrictive for teams that need more flexibility or detailed analytics. As projects and tasks pile up, the interface can become cluttered, making navigation a bit challenging. Additionally, with many tasks assigned to different people, it can sometimes feel like there's an overload of activities to manage. Despite these drawbacks, Asana remains a powerful tool for team collaboration and project management.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is the primary task management tool I rely on as a data science intern working across cross-functional and enterprise-wide teams. It solves the problem of fragmented workflows by centralizing task tracking, communication, and reporting. This brings clarity, accountability, and coordination to my projects, helping me stay aligned with multiple stakeholders and deadlines across the organization.
Compared to JIRA, ASANA is more user-friendly,
What do you like best about the product?
Compared to JIRA, ASANA is more user-friendly, but we may have lacked support and guidance on how to use ASANA effectively for both developer tasks and executive project updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
The after-sales support for smaller and start-up companies like us. We find it challenging to get the support we need
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking AND monitoring tasks in 1 single platform
Organization at its finest!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana it makes it so much easier to stay organized with work tasks. When you have a large to-do list for work its easy to sometimes miss a task or forget about it. Asana helps keep you on track and makes sure everything gets done in a timely manner. Also, creating projects has made is much easier to handle those larger to-do's every month. I use Asana everyday, and would be lost without it now that I have been introduced to it.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have not been disappointed with Asana yet. I have found that is only helps me in my everyday work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Staying organized and making deadlines on time.
Balanced but isn't intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
Asana provides all the necessary features for project management. Time tracking, task relation and file handling.
What do you dislike about the product?
The notification setting will need some work. For example, when I received 2 comments from the same task, the most recent comment will overlap the previous one leading to missed communication and deadline. Moreover, even updates such as status changed will also overlap comment notification which is really misleading.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management and task distribution.
Easy and Useful
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has been an incredibly user-friendly and efficient tool that has truly streamlined my workflow. From the moment we started using it, implementation was a breeze. There was no complicated setup or steep learning curve—just a simple, intuitive platform that made sense right away. It didn’t take long for me or my team to get comfortable navigating it, which made the transition into daily use smooth and stress-free.
I now use Asana every single day. It’s become an essential part of how I stay organized, prioritize my responsibilities, and keep track of both individual and team tasks. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, and I love how all my tasks are clearly laid out. It’s incredibly easy to find what I need and update progress in real time.
One of the biggest benefits has been the way Asana supports team communication and accountability. If I complete a task, I can mark it as done and leave a note for my team. If I’m not able to finish something, someone else can quickly take over without anything falling through the cracks. This flexibility has improved our collaboration and allowed us to move forward with confidence and clarity.
While I haven’t had to reach out to customer support yet—which says a lot about how smoothly Asana runs—it’s reassuring to know that support is available if I ever need it.
As for integration, Asana works well with the other tools we use, which has made it even more valuable. It blends into our workflow instead of interrupting it. Whether I’m syncing with calendars or connecting with communication platforms, everything feels cohesive.
Overall, Asana has made my job easier, more organized, and more efficient. It’s one of those tools I didn’t know I needed until I had it—and now I can’t imagine working without it.

There has not been anything that I dislike, yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps solve several key business problems related to organization, accountability, and communication. Before using it, tasks would often get lost in emails, texts, or casual conversations. Asana centralizes everything in one place, so nothing slips through the cracks. It gives us visibility into who’s doing what and when, which helps eliminate confusion and reduces duplication of efforts. It also keeps everyone aligned on deadlines and priorities, which has improved productivity and cut down on missed deliverables. The ability to assign, track, and update tasks in real-time has enhanced our team's efficiency and overall performance. In short, Asana keeps us on track, on time, and in sync.
Efficiency has increased dramatically
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has made tracking multiple projects across our publishing platforms much easier. Having multiple clients and publications is a lot easier to juggle with Asana's tracking.
What do you dislike about the product?
Getting projects up and running can sometimes be a headache. I would suggest making sub tasks easier to track and manage. It works, it can just sometimes be a bear to work through.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It makes tracking projects from start to finish easier, and gives me a great overview of where we are across our many publishing channels.
Straightforward project management
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is simple enough that you can use it for small teams or straightforward proejcts, but has all the bells and whistles available to you if you want them in order to scale up with a larger organization or more complex teams and projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
This is not unique to Asana and is an issue that, as a project manager, I've encountered in EVERY project management software...but you have to be thoughtful about setting organization-wide "conventions" about how you are going to use Asana and how you are going to organize the workspace, or else the whole thing becomes an unmanageable nightmare. You need to train your team on how to use it so that you don't have a bunch of random Projects and Teams proliferating all over the place. In Asana, one thing I'd change is that it lets you create multiple Teams with the same name, meaning that I have staff members that have created Teams that actually already existed elsewhere. Likewise, it's not simple to just move a Project from one Team to another (though it is possible). Overall, the "housekeeping" of Asana, ESPECIALLY as our team grows rapidly and not everyone is familiar with project management software, is the hardest part.
