Asana Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like how Asana allows me to organize my tasks, and make it more productive overall.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I have had issues when it comes to the notifications I get in my emails, in that, I don't get them some of the times, which then causes some scheduling problems. But it's not really common however I should say.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My advisor uses Asana very often to organize his students' tasks and keep track of who's doing what, which is also helpful for us, his students, to know what we should be working on.
I used Asana for Creative Team management
What do you like best about the product?
I liked being able to mark projects as they progressed along the pipeline. It was also really easy to utilize dropbox, Google drive and other apps with Asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I forgot to amend deadlines, and I always felt like there should have been more pop-ups reminding you to do key items based on user actions and clicks. Also, emails show up really strangely...and out of order.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
How to connect with graphic design team that is off site
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure to change your deadlines and update things as you go along.
Easy to Use & Great Integrations!
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ease of use with Asana and dashboard features. Building out a task down many levels is easy, and the visual of the project makes everything easier to communicate. I like the comments feature and how I get notifications when team members comment on projects or tasks I'm included on or responsible for. The different ways to display tasks makes it easier to manage my own workload and time.
The mobile app is so easy to use and looks and works just like the website! I absolutely love the app. I get notifications on my phone screen about comments on projects and it really helps me keep up-to-date on everything going on for a project.

What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that you can't set up project and task templates in an easy manner in the version we use. Instead I have to create a project ortask and leave it unused and just copy that project or task each time. In the beginning I had to go in and update my email communications because I would get an email everytime anyone changed anything at all on the project I was working on and it would get overwhelming and my inbox would be swamped. Since updating my settings to reflect that I want less emails, there haven't been problems.
Also, while Asana is great for cross-team project collaboration and planning, it doesn't have the best individual task management system or to-do lists that are easy to see and keep up with.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana really helped with the management of work we have. My company I work for works completely remotely and before we implemented Asana it was very difficult to keep track of everyone's responsibilities and deadlines. Asana helps us complete our projects more efficiently and always on time.
I'm a contractor for my company and I have to keep track of my work time for every client and report it in order to be paid by the hour. Asana easily integrates with Everhour and made project and time tracking a breeze!

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Consider the benefits of different levels of plans. We use the Premium plan for the company since we're small and consist only of 10-15 people.
Easy to use, helps manage projects
What do you like best about the product?
The program has an intuitive interface, and it's easy to see which tasks need to be done first.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's not very customizable. I would like to be able to change the lay-out
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Making team work easier and more manageable
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You can tag team members in comments, which is a really useful feature.
Great for project management
What do you like best about the product?
I use Asana for my team to manage our project tasks and to ensure all the communication we have is all in one spot. I like the assigning tasks function and the option to control what notifications you receive from the app.
What do you dislike about the product?
For myself, it was easy to navigate my way around, but for some of my team who aren't that savvy, they had trouble knowing where to start.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana we've removed the dreaded reply-all email thread, we stay on top of our projects and deadlines and we are able to see where everyone else is on their tasks.
Asana is a fantastic project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
I like the front end interface, it organises tasks into suitable categories and can be split into seperate sections. You will see the tasks organised by their due date which is very helpful when planning to delegate work within a timeframe. You can see the history of every task so when it was created, when it was due, and the current progress percentage - this is a benefit over having to go and ask the individual.
What do you dislike about the product?
The android version could be improved as it looks much better on desktop. Would be useful to snooze notifications from certain historic projects as notifications can sometimes become frustrating.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
For managing projects in an effective manner when working to deadlines and ownership of tasks are important Asana makes all this possible. It has everything in one place and has multiple integrations.
Asana - a bit complicated, but does a good job
What do you like best about the product?
It is used as a task management and project management tool. Its easy integration with the Gantt charts made it very suitable for the needs of our company. Create tasks, assign them to different people, set deadlines, download files, discuss discussions on each thread.
What do you dislike about the product?
Adding options to chat on the platform would be great.
This is very difficult, and in order to use all the specific functions, everyone must follow all the textbooks, which requires a lot of time.
In most cases, it's difficult for me to find what I'm looking for, because there are sections, subsections, project names, etc.

Creating tasks, assigning them to different people, setting deadlines, downloading files, leading discussions on each thread are just some of the features that the platform offers.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This is well suited if the company is ready to organize training for all employees so that they can use all the functions of the platform. If you need a simple task management tool, Asana is not suitable, because it is too complex.
Neat and tidy task manager
What do you like best about the product?
It's really well designed, thus ergonomic. It's easy to learn - our team learned to use it "onthe fly". There are many integrations.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to know when something you want to be changed will be introduced; there is no public roadmap.Some changes are unexpected.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management. Team workload management.
A useful way to plan your day, at work and at home
What do you like best about the product?
I like how useable the tool is with useful hotkeys and and integrated mobile app. I also like how you can break a task into sub-steps that can be completed individually.
What do you dislike about the product?
I still have to be disciplined to use the tool :). It has helpful email reminders but ultimately it's up to you to use it regularly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I keep track of priorities and try to use it to focus my efforts for the day. I can also keep track of details for long-running tasks and projects.
Great for team collaborations!
What do you like best about the product?
We most appreciate the ability to work cooperatively on projects and assign due dates, task owners, followers, subtasks, etc.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is not a time budgetary aspect. (ie: tasks do not have the ability to be assigned a time to complete value)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana for group tasks. I also use to help manage recurring program tasks.
