Effortless Task Management with Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I love Asana's infinite level of sub-tasking, which allows me to break down big tasks further and further. This feature is incredibly beneficial because if a task initially, or even during execution, seems too big, it is very easy to break the task into further sub-tasks and handle them independently. The initial setup of Asana was very easy for me, which made transitioning to using the platform smooth and without hassle. I am confident in recommending Asana to others, as reflected in my high likelihood (a score of 10) of doing so.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it inconvenient that sub-tasks in Asana don't automatically become part of the same project as their parent task. Each time I create a sub-task, I have to manually assign it to the project which feels repetitive and time-consuming.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana to break down projects into tasks, assign due dates, and separate projects into workspaces, allowing infinite sub-tasking for handling tasks independently.
Intuitive UI, Flexible Work Styles
What do you like best about the product?
I like the intuitive User Interface (UI) of Asana, which allows anyone to seamlessly work off the same dataset and view work according to their preference, whether in lists, timelines, or swimlanes. This flexibility is beneficial for team collaboration, as it accommodates different working styles and ensures the entire team can effectively collaborate to achieve milestones. The fact that Asana enables team members to operate in their own style while converging on common goals is a significant advantage. Additionally, I find the setup process for Asana to be very easy, which greatly facilitates onboarding and reduces downtime when adopting the platform.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to set date values instead of setting a date for tasks in project boards. If a task takes 5 days to complete and you need to push it back, you have to go in and update the date values and subsequent tasks thereafter.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Asana for marketing projects, managing resources, and timelines efficiently. It lets my team work in different styles to achieve milestones collaboratively and view data in lists, timelines, or swimlanes.
Easy to Use, But more unicorns
What do you like best about the product?
I like how straightforward it is to use, and communicate with my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like when I complete a task, and there is not one of the little unicorn characters. I look forward to those.

Useful for Teams, But Needs Better Board Management
What do you like best about the product?
Its easy to create portfolios of projects and from a project management perspective, its an effective tool. There are some good automations, which are helpful (although annoying you have to upgrade for some which would be very useful). I also like that I can easily create dashboards and templated.
What do you dislike about the product?
From an organizational perspective, I do not like that we cannot audit our Asana boards and remove them. I also do not like that its difficult to find simple integrations from my email to add actions into an Asana board. We have found workarounds but not ideal.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helps us track projects and workflows.
Intuitive, Versatile, and Seamless Integrations

What do you dislike about the product?
There are some limitations with the free version, which is to be expected. I have rarely had any issues or complications with Asana.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
