What do you dislike about the product?
They are continuously notifying that there is an improved paid version.
At times, you lose the connection and can lose some work, there is no way to do a restoration.
It seems that at times it goes slow because you are on the free version, it's as if they are turning off the tap to make you switch to the paid version.
Technical support takes a long time to respond to questions.

It is useful for noting down any data.

Best Project Management & Task Management Software
What do you like best about the product?
I love that I can assign a task to my team and create tasks for myself. I can see where my team is and keep an eye on approaching deadlines without having to constantly ask where my team is on a task. I love the conversation feature so that you I can discuss a task within the task itself instead of in an email chain.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any dislikes with the product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use the software to manage the billing function between our accounting department and our business units. It helps streamline the monthly process and helps everyone know what has been assigned to them and when their deadlines are.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Great project management software for the the non-project manger folks!
Excellent Tool For Visualizing Work and Flow
What do you like best about the product?
Many web-based kanban/AGILE/swim-lane tools and project management tools in general are complex and difficult to learn. When I was presented the task of managaing a complex technical project with a team of 20+ manufacturing managers, team leads, and engineers, I knew I needed a simple tool that was visual, colorful, and inviting. After a lot of searching, I found Asana and I was very pleased. The click and drag UI with simple, clean, and colorful theme made it appealing to users and easy to train on. Even users with very little history with web-tools could go in and see what work was assigned to them and provide updates. This is a tool I will continue to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some features I am not a fan of. For instance, the fact that a task can have only one assignee. However, Asana has an active forum environment and has responded to others with this issue. Their perspective makes sense - at the end of the day, you want ONE person ho can answer for a deliverable. "When everyone owns it, no one owns it." However, this is difficult when trying to structure layered teams.
Also, I was not a fan of the 3rd party integrations available and the lack of Gantt chart support. I ended up using Insta-Gantt.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Spend time learning the features, setting up tags and favorites, and browse the forums. This is not only a simple tool to use, but is feature rich.
ASANA has been very helpful.
What do you like best about the product?
The projects are well organized and ASANA is user friendly. We can easily access the projects added on asana and can easily upload and attach documents as well. Asana is like a one stop shop where everything is really accessible. You don't need to find other platforms as everyhting could be in asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is nothing that I dislike in using ASANA. Since I start using asana, there is no downside of it that I have found. And I have no issues encountered. It has been really a great help. And it has been one foundations of our success with regards to the projects we worked on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has been used as our method of communication in taking over some projects with the clients. And it has been so easy for us because it is organized and easy to use. There are many benefits that I have experienced with asana. It has been a great help on managing projects, even though we have so many projects on going it has been easy because of the user friendly interface asana has.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I highly recommend asana to others. Most especially those people who are working in a group and working on many projects as well. Even though there are many project handlers, you can easily be on track as everything is really organized and it is really user friendly. The comments are also a great help as all the insights of the members or the handlers of the projects are being considered.
Effective Project Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a crucial tool for my team and me when it comes to task management. I love the ability to put the tasks we discuss somewhere in an organized place, map them out on a calendar, assign team members, specify due dates, and more. The layout is also very clean and straightforward and allows me to organize and complete tasks with ease.
What do you dislike about the product?
I've found the notifications to be a bit bothersome and have had trouble trying to reconfigure them. I would appreciate having more options in the notifcation center. I also find the "My Tasks" page to be overwhelming and wish there was a function to further organize the tasks that are assigned to me. As is, the list will easily become too long and it can be hard for me to organize in my head.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has been a huge help for my team. This makes every aspect of executing our daily tasks easier, and in turn, makes us a more successful, efficient team. We use Asana exclusively as our project management tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely recommend Asana if you are looking for a way to organize projects for your team, keep track of due dates, and map out strategy in advance. You can leave notes in tasks, assign team members, create sub-tasks, and more.
