Asana Review
What do you like best about the product?
Asana was a very easy to use application. I liked that it can be accessed from any device - desktop, phone, tablet. It was easy to create and manage communication and tasks within the each respective project.
What do you dislike about the product?
This is a fairly simple tool used best for cardwall/to-do list type of projects. It's best for the projects that have little task dependencies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An easy way to connect and collaborate with folks across different departments for the same project.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is a great tool when planning events or programs only requiring a to-do list. It's simple to create projects and tasks and to add/assign folks to the appropriate tasks. If your team functions best with reminders, this application can be set to send daily reminds to complete overdue tasks until they are completed. I would not recommend this for projects or programs that require a lot of task dependencies.
Great PM tool
What do you like best about the product?
Awesome tool for collaborating with team members to get the job done. Has made my role as a PM much easier and has made deliverable tracking much easier.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can't assign tasks to more than one person.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Work at a small company, where everyone has a ton of stuff on their plate. Asana helps us make sure we don't lose sight of any small things on a daily basis, while also keeping track of the big picture stuff on a quarterly basis.
Project Management & Oversight

We use a couple different project management softwares for different teams and projects we are working on. We especially like Asana for our federal contracts in that it makes it easy to create to do lists for our team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Nothing, it's pretty seamless and they have a good mobile app.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Using the mobile app is easier than the desktop.. We have out inspectors use ipads in the field and upload docs and images to the app inside the app. We like how easy it is to use and recomend you download to try it out.
Great software for companies to stay organized
What do you like best about the product?
I like the functionality of it and how multiple people can work on it together. This has helped tremendously with working with my internal teams at my job. Lots of options on how to setup and organize tasks. Great mobile and desktop interfaces that connect seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some specific features that are lacking and occasionally hard to figure out how to setup something a specific way. But affordable for what you get. When a project is finished, I have not found any way to remove it from my active project or equipment list. The only way I have found is to eliminate it or stop following the project.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana for project management, communication and collaboration. Asana is really easy to navigate with a lot of features - a great juxtaposition that can be hard to achieve. You can tell that time was spent in the user interface & experience, so that project collaboration and management can flow easily.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend Asana as it's amazing at organizing and managing big group projects and keeping track of huge volumes of information. Projects can be managed into dashboards for all involved team members to access and review.
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.
It will increase your efficiency by at least 50%
What do you like best about the product?
It allows myself and my business partner to communicate and assign tasks to each other via a system that holds all the tasks in one place, this means NO MORE EMAILS! Which is brilliant plus the basic version of asana is free.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes it is hard to find integrations into asana from other applications and the ability to trigger several tasks based on one action being triggered into asana is also sometimes challenging but for the price I think it si definitely worth it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Assigning tasks, automating task creation and tracking what things we have outstanding that need to get done. This has increased our efficiency of communication by more than 50%, in fact I would say this alone is responsible for about a 70-75% increase in our business efficiency.
The benefits are that we no longer forget tasks, things do not get lost in emails and we don't have long streams of emails for tasks. In addition to that our sub contracts now use it so I hardly ever need to speak to them allowing me freedom to be able to continue to build my business quicker!

Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you don't currently have any task management software in your business then you have to get asana, it is simple and easy to implement will save you tonnes of time communicating with other team members or just keeping track of outstanding tasks you need to get done and it doesn't cost a penny for the initial package.
We all know that running a business is a hard thing to do but what asana does is allows you to do more with less time, less thinking, less headspace and to ensure you keep on top of tasks allowing you to focus all your energy on the important tasks in your business and not worrying about remember stuff that you need to get done.
It even has mobile apps and tablet apps so you can take it anywhere with you!

Easy Platform to use and a great way to manage projects, events etc. Minimize the use of email and a great way to communicate with your team.

I have not had any dislikes so far using this platform.

Minimizing emails, a great way to connect with your team, simplifying processes.
Good way to assign tasks, track workflow
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ease of use even without specific training; it's easy to organize tasks into larger projects, set internal deadlines for tasks, assign them, etc. It's incredibly intuitive.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there were levels of permissions that we could set for interns, junior employees, etc -- currently it's all or nothing; an intern can archive or delete tasks without permission from a manager. The ability to set certain roles would be a huge improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps increase our productivity and helps us track progress on multiple projects at once -- this is of utmost importance in a fundraising and communications setting where there are constantly follow-up tasks to complete.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
N/A
I used Asana at a previous construction job and it worked well for the tasks I gave it.
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I was able to get alerted when tasks were do. It was also user friendly for others to use. You could also assign other people tasks that were in charge of the project. We really liked to use it during team meetings to keep track of which project we were discussing at the time.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometime it was difficult to copy tasks or assign them. Also, it can be overwhelming to get the alerts if you are still working on the tasks at hand. When you assigned the tasks it was a little harder to use on the phone app. Sometimes the app would not work on my phone and I am not sure it was just too big for my phone to handle or if there were too many projects to get through.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use it to track all of the things we need to accomplish or look up on different projects with different clients.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would suggest making the app more user friendly. I like working with it online but it is tough when it comes to the phone.
