It Gets the Job Done!
What do you like best about the product?
I enjoy the interface and feel that the program is usable. I appreciate the color scheme, and think it keeps users engaged.
What do you dislike about the product?
I feel like using Asana with other programs and interfaces can be challenging. Trying to link it with productivity tools isn't always the easiest.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're able to keep track of our productivity. We've realized that there are ways to keep each other in the loop, so that's nice!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get to the know the system well, and you'll be fine! :)
Asana is a solid app to use in the workplace.
What do you like best about the product?
I really enjoy the tasks tab and how it is set up on the left hand side. You are able to view your tasks, inbox and portfolios. I also like how it shows the recent projects you are working on in the very middle. I think this is a good place to put this so it is easy to find. Recent projects is where you are going to need to get to the most, so the fact that its right in the middle and easy accessible it is a very good feature.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the colors. It looks very fake and not professional. I also do not like how small the lettering is. I would like a larger font for the words. I think the overall site could be more user friendly. I would recommend blowing up the whole site and making the colors more solid and black and white. Or a brighter color. It is very dull.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is helping organize projects and assigning who does what for our team. I really like the benefit of having different teams on there so we can view everyones projects and most importantly our projects. I think it overall is a good app but can have improvements with quality to make it easier to access.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would recommend taking some time to review the whole app and not try to just wing it. It is very complex and takes some time to review to really learn everything.
Nice tool with easy to use features but still lacking basic functionality
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to use, create tasks, set up owners and duration, see a time line
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the features are not as easy to use, I can set a task to be dependent on another but only one way (not set one as parent of). I cannot assign tasks to multiple people.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing work on a team project using a simple workflow
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Easy to user tool, but might be too simple for complex cross functional teams
Great Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to set up projects and customize the layout for each one. Each project that you add on can be adjusted with dates, with sub-tasks, and can be assigned to other people or groups on your team. This is super helpful when it comes to regrouping with colleagues and being able to see which tasks each person has or has not completed.
What do you dislike about the product?
The layout for assigning tasks by date can be a little more accessible. Often times syncing up tasks to days of the week could be important for timelines. I realize that there is an integration available but a direct week-log might be beneficial for work days.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
A key problem we're solving with Asana currently is bridging different teams together to integrate insights together in a timely manner. Coming together as a team and all being on the same page as to knowing where everybody is is critical to combining insights.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Go ahead and utilize the assigning feature for tasks for when you are working with a group.
What a great tool to manage projects and teams
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Asana gives you the option to pretty much custom build your product management tool.
As a user it is very straightforward how to populate fields.
As an admin Asana guides you through the different options that you can select for setting up your environment. Asana offers different layouts (Cross-Functional Project Plan, Asana Basics Training, Team Brainstorm, 1:1 Meeting Agenda) or a totally custom build layout
The way that asana integrats with slack is very nice. You can literally start a new task just but chatting with the bot or adding him to a conversation (in a group e . g . )

If you collaborate in multiple teams asana its a bit tedious to switch projects and teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Internal project planning and roadmapping,
To do list and burn down charts

Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try to integrate with slack, it is very use - full when you connect asana and slack.
You can literally start a project out of slack just by using their bot

Amazing features but feels busy
What do you like best about the product?
Asana was amazing for assigning tasks and keeping track of them across multiple clients, projects, teammates and more!
What do you dislike about the product?
The overall interface (while it can do most of what you need it to do) felt very busy. When you have dozens of tasks and subtasks assigned to different people among different projects with different views, it can look quite overwhelming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Half of our team uses it for our internal project management software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is great for task management, but in my opinion, if you want a great project management tool that looks simpler and still provides most of the same features, use Trello.
Asana for the Novice

It is handy to see the status of each project and what is being worked on.

Like most software it has to be kept up! So it's not the software per se but the people using it who don't update or or who close tasks too soon
