One of the best task management tools

  • May 31, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I love the fact that you can create tasks and organize them as easy as making using a simple todo list app on your phone. You type your task and can drag them and make dependencies too that way. The design is pleasing to the eye and, for a visual person like me, helps layout all projects in an organized fashion. See everything across your team in a holistic view. Create dependencies and track progress with assignments, timestamps, and updates.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, not a whole lot. At this point, I can't think of any improvements outside of maybe a color picker to assign colors outside of the standard options they currently provide.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is a beautiful and flexible tool for managing your project and for team collaboration. The tool provides a very simple and easy to use GUI that provides you with quick buttons for all the common things you would need, such as creating a new project or task, assigning users, notifications, scheduling, permissions, watchers, etc. I am pretty impressed as all these options are available right on the main window in a very intuitive manner, as opposed to a bunch of buttons being cluttered in one area or options buried within menu trees.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The Asana app is a great tool when working on a group project. It's simple to assign people to a task. The task reminders and due date help you manage and stay on top of what needs to get done.

Manage activities and record all changes

  • May 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an excellent tool with which I can manage all the tasks of my work, it allows me to make cards and in them I can add all kinds of documents or text, also something very good about Asana is that it allows me to work collaboratively.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like them to update their interface since I think it looks a bit old, and something I do not like about its functions is that I do not find the option to prioritize tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is a very useful tool for our design department because with it I can see the changes made by my colleagues in different tasks, it also organizes us to finish our work on time.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana can be a good option for a team of few people; However, for large teams, they must carry out studies to verify if it can be profitable, since it is a somewhat expensive software.

What do you like best about the product?
I like being able to create different tasks within different projects in Asana. We are able to create groups for each project and assign them tasks

Downsides are that you have to have an Asana account to be able to be part of projects.

I wish we could add multiple people to one task.

Clean and Useful

  • May 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
We use asana not only for daily and weekly tasks, but also to organize company passwords, logins, and other important information in a central area.
What do you dislike about the product?
Not many dislikes. I would maybe like a bit more of a focus on how the pages can be organized based on what your business is. Different user faces for different industries.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps keep me on track with my work, and helps me see what my co-workers are working on.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Think of it as a larger interface than it actually is. It's not just task management, but a hub where you can keep important notes, document links, and content related to the business. Putting it in a workspace sharing location keeps the content safer in the event of an employee leaving the workplace.

Full of features, but simple to use

  • May 30, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate that Asana can be used in. A variety of different ways. Each user can organize their projects and lists in a way that works for them. They are not confined to rigid frameworks like other software
What do you dislike about the product?
I pay for a premium version, but some interesting, new features require an even high membership price which may be cost prohibitive for many small business users
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management has been streamlined, we are working on creating a marketing sales pipeline within Asana as well. Ultimately, I would love for all aspects of our day to day operations maintained in Asana.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
The documentation is fantastic. For tips, how-tos and even organizational ideas browse around.

Powerful project management tool

  • May 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an excellent tool to manage projects both small and large, has a lot of tools and options such as calendar, form, be able to hold conversations, upload files, and many more things that make it an indispensable tool when working as a team and keep the whole team informed about the progress and progress of different projects. It also sends automatic emails to each of the collaborators which allows everyone to be aware of the progress. And on the home screen you have all the tasks to do in a single glance and each of the projects to which these added which greatly facilitates the distribution of activities when the working day begins.
What do you dislike about the product?
In short, it is a complex tool and has a large number of tools, so it has a small learning curve to be able to implement it well as a team.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently we use asana to manage the different design projects we have with our customers, at first cost us a little time to implement but once exceeded this time became a very powerful tool for the team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
To all those people or teams that are looking for a tool to manage projects or tasks, ASANA is the best option, in the free version has a lot of tools to manage tasks and the team, so you can start easily, and as the needs of your company are increasing, asana has a lot of powerful tools in its paid version, which facilitate and streamline much more teamwork.

Favorite project & workflow software I have used!

  • May 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
Asana has been life changing for me, as I’ve attempted to tackle so many projects with countless moving parts. Between the mobile app, and the online desktop version, Asana is extremely easy-to-use, intuitive, and well thought out. The pretty UI doesn’t hurt either! I also love the different views Asana provides.
What do you dislike about the product?
While I absolutely love Asana and am a huge advocate for it, I don’t like how you cannot change “views” (list view / card view) after the project has already been created. Sometimes, it isn’t until managing a project intensively until you realize you’d rather have another view, in which you must create an entire new project. Additionally, it would be nice to have additional task owners, instead of collaborators who may/may not be notified.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has allowed me to prioritize to the very best of my ability. It is extremely flexible, and feature-rich. By focusing on solely my tasks I’ve been tracking within this platform, I have found that my workload becomes much more manageable, and allows me to focus on what the most crucial deliverable is that day.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try the free version out to learn if you like it first! Some workflows can become too complex for Asana to handle — but it’s absolutely worth it if it works for your team!

Asana - Task tracker for Professionals

  • May 29, 2019
  • Review provided by G2

What do you like best about the product?
The list view that is more organized than Kanban apps like Trello. The ability to add subtasks. The ability to assign multiple people on the assign list, and have that work in conjunction with tasks and subtasks. Ability to add documents and view them. The ability to search for things on demand.
What do you dislike about the product?
The app and the mac version. It seems to be buggy and crashes a lot. The ability to only have teams limited to 20 people.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management for a small team.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use it as initially it's free. Some competitors have come up that offer more for less, so the pricing is a problem area.

Used it to organize our project and tasks. Was useful for tracking and planning.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Try other options with better customer service.
