Helped me finish a project that would of been impossible to track otherwise

the Organization of how tasks are shown can be confusing. You can change the organization but it’s tricky

It does what it tells you...
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use, Android and iOS apps that work very well
What do you dislike about the product?
It's very basic. We ended up switching our task management to monday.com because of their flexibility and ease of use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are no longer using as of May 2019
Asana is a good tool for project management
What do you like best about the product?
I like to use Asana when I am doing a big project with collaboration, especially remote colabs. It's easy to use and almost everybody has it now. I would say Asana is also a great platform for communications. It helps with communicating teams for the project and task management. I would say it is a superb product in all ways. If I talk about the importance of this tool, I would say it is one of the popular project management software available in the market.
What do you dislike about the product?
Exactly how useful the platform depends quite a lot on the PM. Some PMs will leverage more value out of it than others. This has to do with just how deep the interface runs. Not every aspect of the UI is inherently intuitive. There are still functions, I'm sure, that I'm unaware of or not utilizing fully.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is one of the few threads that consistently keep all of these projects consistently moving in the right direction. In summary, it's a VERY useful tool, especially in the right hands. It makes organization and coordination of projects - of any size - so much easier. I've used it fairly extensively as a member of my client's team, on multiple projects, and it can help to leverage productivity out of situations that might otherwise stall the project out for three or four times as long.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's easy to use and manage projects at a granular level. Being able to assign due dates to projects and tasks makes it easy to keep the project moving forward.
Too many changes
What do you like best about the product?
I like that they have many ways to help you organize your tasks and projects. Also, I liked that i could share the lists with other colleagues.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's too different from a simple system. I also didn't like that it encourages lots of organizing. I like to write all of my to dos in one place, and this system made me feel like I needed 5-6 to-do lists, which was overwhelming. Also, the cost. Too much money when you can do most of the same features in sticky notes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Benefits are keeping projects organized. Being able to know where you are within a project and also being able to share to do lists with others.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Price- it's a bit pricey when there are things like sticky notes, email, and Google sheets or Google docs. We ended up just sticking with Google docs because everyone could use it, it always saved in the cloud and it was free.
So great!
What do you like best about the product?
So great for staying organized, screening requests from coworkers and organizing workload! I highly recommend! Plus they have great how-to options
What do you dislike about the product?
The help section was a little difficult. Hard to find who to email if you aren't the owner of the account.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workflow, design and social requests, schedule.

SO SIMPLE!!!
Effective way to solve large team project and time management
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ability to work both in a board and a gantt chart form. it essentially means that no matter what my existing and new team members are used to, they can all see where everyone is and whos blocking who in the view that meets them best
What do you dislike about the product?
would like more robust gantt charting, the feature is fairly new and im happy they added it, but i still turn to instagantt to compliment their offering
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
large scale project management, with many blocking objects between contributors
Great for developer teams
What do you like best about the product?
We use Asana primarily to run our website and platform development sprint cycles. Love that tasks are drag-and-drop + it's easy to share to stakeholders as well as assign them.
What do you dislike about the product?
Recently Asana added kanban boards (which trello was great for) - only dislike is that there's a team member capacity on the free tier (but that's expected)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Great for general team task management. Better than trello (more customization available)
Simple Controls, Bulky for a Freelancer
What do you like best about the product?
This app has an amazingly clean design. Everything is also in one place and you can add files and forms if needed for projects. Giving people access is quick and easy as well, making it so everyone is on the same page.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because I am just one person, this is a little bit more than what I need and I tend to ignore most of the collaboration features unless a client is involved.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is making it easier for me to see my projects and where I'm at on them and brings a beautiful timeline to the table
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try out this program if you feel that you need a simple project management tool with option access to people outside of your team. Asana makes everything just that simple.
Checklists and teamwork
What do you like best about the product?
Most software is set up as either checklist or project management. With Asana we can combine them both under 1 roof.
What do you dislike about the product?
User interface could use an update. While it serves it purpose, little more visual appeal would be nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team projects and shared checklists.
Managing Task
What do you like best about the product?
I like that Asana gives you possibilities to create tasks and share those with others and keep track of what you and others have done
What do you dislike about the product?
I got a little confused with dates on some things and it can be hard to keep track of it that way at times when you are in a rush
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing tasks and keeping up to date in it, we specifically used it for weekly pod meetings and showing the work you had done up to that point
Recommendations to others considering the product:
just try it out, nothing worse than not being able to schedule things correctly
