Great for project management
What do you like best about the product?
I love Asana! This is a great tool for project management. There are different views - calendar (so you can look at a project from start to finish) and a project board (so you can look at individual tasks with details). Each task can be linked to other projects or other tasks. You can even generate sub-tasks assigned to other users with their own full task cards. The software is very intuitive and easy to learn.
What do you dislike about the product?
I honestly can't think of anything.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use this for all our tasks/projects in the organization. Our field reps can easily submit tasks to the administrative pool with relevant documents/photos/etc. This keeps all the task/project information in one location and users associated with the task/project are able to track its progress. Since so many of our staff work remotely, this software is a huge help to keep us all organized and on the same page!

Organizing my work flow
Great way to stay organized
What do you like best about the product?
Asana helps our company stay organized. I love that you can copy checklists from one task to another. This has allowed us to replicate our process for each client. I also love how easy it is to assign subtasks to different members of our team.
What do you dislike about the product?
My dislike is minor. I wish there was more customization available in the Asana platform, such as different backgrounds, etc. Again, very minor, but I like to personalize things I use on a daily basis to me/my company.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has made it easier for our company to stay organized. Within our company, this has been a difficult process for us, but Asana has certainly streamlined our organization and task management process.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is an easy, straightforward way to manage tasks with multiple users. It is a great way to stay organized within your entire organization!
Project Management Essentials
What do you like best about the product?
Asana allows our organization to manage and track interdepartmental project goals in an efficient way. Easy to use and access to live updated documents gives us real-time collaboration across multiple locations.
What do you dislike about the product?
An upgraded subscription is now needed to upload and edit documents and forms. This change has made is difficult to share project documents. I have recently had to submit a proposal request to our finance department to increase funding for this software, which has slowed down current projects being worked on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Asana we are able to track committee minutes and data, such as our Quality Improvement Committee, which allows us to access real-time numbers that help us improve our direct care.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A must have for companies or individuals who need to be organized and want to track projects among many teams. Begin with upgraded Premium Version for ability to upload, view and access shared documents.
Asana helps us organize tasks
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that you can make an assign tasks to individuals with deadlines. Also, the conversation area is great. IT keeps track of important information that we need to discuss about a project and keeps it for future reference through the entire project. I also enjoy the archive feature as it allows us to keep the information in perpetuity but not have to have it clutter our daily life.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the search feature, it does not seem to be robust enough and often seems difficult to view or interpret the results. I am not sure how I would change that but I would. I would also like the ability to prioritize things easier and for each person as well as make tasks dependent on the other but that is part of the premium option that we don't have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are being more efficient in our workflow as well as not forgetting small parts of the job until the end so it is saving us time and hectic work environment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
the free version seems worth it, it is hard to get older generations to adopt asana
Good "to do" tool
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to track progress on a task and seeing a full list of the task I have to do each day
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to add more statuses to the individual tasks depending on the progress that I make
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Task management of my day-to-day activities or special projects
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's a good tool for time and task management
Streamline Your Workflow, Integrate Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Multiple teams can easily coordinate around one task. Also, you can have a dancing unicorn fly across your screen when you complete a task. Who doesn't want a celebratory unicorn multiple times a day?
What do you dislike about the product?
The only thing that they could better is roll out task-based templates. Right now, only projects can have templates, but we had tasks, like coordinating a mailing, where the mailing was the main task and there were various subtasks. It would have been nice to have a the task and its subtasks in a template. Asana worked really well for us. We had four teams at a non-profit coordinating projects with Asana. It was an amazing tool. We purchased the premium when we got too big for it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana allowed me to easily manage my workload and ensure nothing slipped through the cracks. It was easy to organize my day, and it really allowed me to tackle those to-dos that always seem to get put off for more enjoyable/easy items. It's easy to track projects where multiple parties are involved and know how they are tracking. It's easy to see history discussion around tasks and manage it right in Asana, no need to email.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Start small, with one or two teams and one or two projects, then add others as you get the hang of the product.
Asana is my task management bible!
What do you like best about the product?
The ease of use as well as the customization that you can do for your own Asana within you companies shared projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to be able to lock areas of team projects that others can view but are unable to edit to make sure that the layout and order are not messed with.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Daily and project task management are the key uses of Asana for me and my business. We can collaborate on tasks but then have our own views and independent task lists. The benefit of assigning tasks to others, using the chat feature to stay out of emails and keep everything in one place is of great benefit.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is as good as the time you put into it. You have to be diligent in putting the work into tracking and managing your projects and tasks. If you don't consistently enter your details then it'll be an additional step of work that won't make you feel like it's working for you but just more work.
Efficient but UI is more complex than it needs to be

Efficient tool when dealing with multiple remote teammates but
What do you dislike about the product?
UI could be more simple but still, keep its efficiency.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Easier to coordinate multiple teammate project progress.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
