How is the basic version of this product free??
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is the perfect software tool for collaboration and product management. It is elegant, functional, easy to pick up, and really makes collaboration within a team much, much easier. It's also a testament to the product quality that looking through the feature questions for this review I learned about like, a dozen other capabilities I hadn't even known about before. Wow!
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish that subtask functionalities were a little more robust, but that's a 'would be nice to have' problem more than anything.+
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has completely changed – or at least reenergized – how I approach project management, both for myself and with my team/
Recommendations to others considering the product:
GO FOR IT.
Task is the Key
What do you like best about the product?
i like how you can dive your project in small Task and have the control, the team project work over a same place and can see any change on live, is easy comment over a task and have new ideas. the Alerts is a good tool because in any place we have the last news about the project and make sync between the team, has option for mobiles i think need more design but is good.
What do you dislike about the product?
i what to have a big calendar to watch a big picture about all. have one but i think need a better structure, or maybe a better design. i want more options to custom the design, to look more like my brand. maybe a option for video increase the productivity, but i think at future the can implement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
sync project with all team, this is the first problem we fix with Asana, and the option to shared the files is a good option and safe, the due date help us to make goal about the project, and the easy option to make priorities over the task help to make a project realistic all time. another problem fix is how track the progress in the team this is very good for managed. in general asana is a good tool for track and develop any project, thanks for this app.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
integrate a better options for mobile, in the section for task
A Darn Good Digital Checklist For Better Project Management And Productivity!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Asana provides daily or weekly email digests of upcoming or completed projects. This helps keep me abreast on tasks.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are some interface bugs/ limitations with no apparent documentation on how to resolve but they are minor and there are constant back-end updates to improve the platform! One issue I had was deleting a user I invited who never accepted the invitation to join my Asana workspace. However, customer service is great and can help answer any questions or issues you may have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is a great project management tool that helps teams communicate crucial details to increase productivity and streamline workflow. It acts as a digital checklist and has certainly replaced my need for a written notepad!
Smooth look, great features.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the task management system. It's super easy to use and organize goals into subtasks, move them around and assign them. It's great for keeping track of progress, accountability and planning. I LOVE the improvements to the look and feel over the past few years.
What do you dislike about the product?
It could use a better file management system. We use other apps for that, but we could use Asana too.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It improves efficiency, communication and productivity on teams. (I first used it as a team member in programming, now I use it as an administrator for freelancing.) It also helps me keep track with clients as a freelancer.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
We used Asana and Google Drive my first time with it, and I implement that combo in my own work as an admin now.
Good for what it is
What do you like best about the product?
Having a to-do list is something I do to increase productivity day-to-day.
What do you dislike about the product?
This is really just a glorified to-do list. My small business used it for a year and a half before moving over to Slack.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping up with items that need to be completed. Having due dates set and getting reminders when something is past due has helped me catch up more than once.
Lacks Features, Very Confusing, & Time Consuming
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a project management cloud tool that projects managers can use to keep track of their tasks, projects, and assignments. We had a few applications to choose from, such as, Basecamp, Smart Sheets, etc.; however, our organization felt that moving from Basecamp to Asana would be more beneficial. If you have used Basecamp, Asana is fairly similar and just what I like to call an "upgraded" version of what Basecamp could be.
What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks features that many well built programs such as Smarts Sheets offers. I also felt it was not user friendly as you have to literally confirm 3 times to delete a task. There also isn't a progress bar feature other than something such as a drop down that you can customize to add to each task (example: waiting, in progress, on hold, etc.). A toolbar would also be a nice addition, but there is not one available. There are many features that are also hidden and you have to customize which should be very easy to find such as on Smart Sheets. Lastly, creating a template is a pain. Still trying to find where we can build a template we can use rather than recreating the entire project from scratch. Again, lacks flow. I would take a pass if you are very specific when it comes to Project Management applications. If you are looking for something less confusing and more features, I would not recommend this tool. It is good for a beginner Project Manager.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are currently using asana for application deployment, office relocation, and windows 10 deployment
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I recommend to look into an application called SmartSheets
use the free version as a high-level project management tool - great so far
What do you like best about the product?
I like the task view. I use it as a project view and write my task notes in the description box. It's essentially a high-level checklist of all my projects. Then I can click in to each one to see the details I've written in each.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was an option for the project view to look like the task view. I essentially use the task view as my project view because I don't need to get very granular and set a list of tasks. I just want an at-a-glance view of my project pipeline.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to track my individual projects. I don't use it to collaborate on a team.
Great for teams to collaborate and stay on track
What do you like best about the product?
It's a great way to track progress of projects by distributing tasks to different owners. I also like that it's easy to add tasks, sub-tasks, links, and attachments.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that Asana integrated more seamlessly with the google business suite.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Holding teammates accountable for tasks, increasing ownership because there is transparency into what parts of the project different teammates own. You can also see whose parts of a project are contingent upon other teammates' work therefore I need to keep up with my deliverables to avoid holding someone else back
Best Work Management app
What do you like best about the product?
Really easy to use, really good Google Platform integration, you can create tasks inside tasks inside taks, you can post pictures, comment, tag someone, choose a guy in charge for the task and also send direct messages
What do you dislike about the product?
It is very expensive and you can only have one job (you can't use the app for more than one job.. to do this, you need to create two accounts).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Work management, team colaboration, project management and tasks assignment.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Expensive, but wort it!
Best todo list tool for startup

What do you dislike about the product?
It takes some time to learn how to use each feature of the product as there are so many features. It requires someone who already has some knowledge to be able to guide other team members. They are easy to use once you do work on them, but some users struggle with more specific features such as dashboards, communication tools.
It does not have an in-built instant messaging/chat feature to chat instantly with team mates although they have options to integrate with other softwares for the same functionality.
