Mastering Tasks Like a Pro
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Asana allows subtasks for a major task. It helps you break down each component of a task to keep you on track with a workflow. Asana has features like assigning a time when a task is due.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, the only thing I dislike is not being able to enjoy the animation when you click off a task. The animation tends to appear in the background and not layers on the front part of your screen.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping organized on track with tasks. Having dates and time when tasks are done and having a master list of my tasks to keep me on track. I use it even for personal uses.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Free version. Can not go wrong with trying it out. Excellent free version to try.
The best project management tool ever!
What do you like best about the product?
Where to start...I love everything about Asana! But I think the best part is how easy it is to use. Plus the user interface is easy on the eye ;) I also love the little animations every time I complete a task!! I've recommended this product to my husband and they've started using Asana for a month now and love it too!
What do you dislike about the product?
I didn't like the fact that I couldn't put in start dates for a project but I see that it is now available in Premium :) Also don't like that you have to put a task into a project to be able to see it in the calendar view. Not sure if this has changed with all the upgrades...
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Asana, there were projects that would get forgotten until the last minute, because the info was buried somewhere in my email inbox. We didn't know what projects the rest of the team was working on or how far along they were so if a team member was away from work and a client contacted us to find out we couldn't actually give any feedback. Now we have easy access to what everyone is working on, we know exactly what's outstanding on each project. Information for each project is stored in one place, so no more trying to wade through emails!

Just try it...and you'll wonder how you ever survived without it!
Make your work easy
What do you like best about the product?
Its really great, easy to understand how to use it, and make my work much easier. Also is great because of asana work is much better organized, and you can see not all of your work, but also your colleague work which is great for teamwork.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is really great, im happy to use it. Only one stuff is problem, and that is that i cant reach asana on my mobile phone. - update - now i have asana on my phone too :)

Best project/task management software I've used
What do you like best about the product?
The integration between Asana and Instagantt. It makes resourcing for multiple projects a breeze. Fantastic integration with instagantt and Harvest.
What do you dislike about the product?
The limited permissions, that any user can mark complete and edit dates.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Team schedule planning and progress tracking.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A very easy to use and flexible task/project management tool. It has great integrations with other useful software.
Awesome Dashboard and very user friendly
What do you like best about the product?
I love the calendar view to see your project and tasks by their due date. Asana also has other ways to view including lists and columns (used like sticky notes). You can easily assign different users to tasks and set due dates. I love how you can keep track of project conversations or add notes/comments to individual tasks. This makes it easy for me to leave feedback or helpful bits of information for my team members. Asana also has a great feature to add files or attachments to a project - I don't believe that it has a version control feature, yet, however, its nice to be able to associate something (like a template) with a project.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish you could assign more than one user to a task - as sometimes i've come across something that is a collaborative effort. I would really make sure to check you email notification settings because it can get spammy very quickly if you have a lot of project updates. Other than that there's nothing that I strongly dislike about Asana, I think it's a really great product.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team uses the calendar to plan our monthly social media content and it is amazing for collaboration. We are able to pull in new company groups (such as human resources) to help share content and make sure that we don't overlap on dates.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
This software is amazing for team project management or even for just organizing/scheduling your own workload. The interface is super easy to use and understand and I've had multiple team members say they use it to organize their own tasks, even if they're not involved in a team project using Asana.
It has vastly improved the flow of communication for our team
What do you like best about the product?
being able to assign tasks to various members. This allows you to give them a physical list of what they are responsible for instead of there being confusion over who is doing what, as well as a visual reminder in there to do list.
What do you dislike about the product?
That subtasks do not automatically disappear when completed the way tasks do. It can get very cluttered very quickly
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Open and constant communication between teams that are spread over multiple locations. We can all be in the loop with what is going on in one place, as opposed to a bunch of emails sprinkled throughout our inbox. All of the related information on an issue is in one spot, in writing.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
When first using, I highly recommend a team training on using the software so that everyone is on the same page. It will be very intuitive for some people, but others will struggle and will need some guidance. So long as everyone understands how to use it, and you make allowance for a few weeks to learn efficiency, this software is amazing. I love being able to work from my phone, and their mobile app allows me to do that easily.
Activity Tracking for Teams
What do you like best about the product?
Being able to create custom fields and tags etc. that are unique to our team really set this task manager above others. In addition to that, the calendar view for particular tags helps us keep track of everyone's day, and everyone knows what everyone else is working on. This feature alone is the number one feature in our opinion.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some aspects of the UI.. I wish things were a bit more customizable and I wish I could fit more on my screen at once, possibly from different projects etc.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana has helped me personally to really optimize some of my workflows. It's no longer a question of what I need to do next, I just speed my way through the checklist and I am good to go! It has also helped us tremendously as a team, to assign tasks to others and even generate discussion about what to do next within a particular project.
I love how it keeps me and my team organized and helps us stay on track with other teams.
What do you like best about the product?
I like how detailed I can get in my projects and tasks. Love that I can create templates as I use them constantly for replicating similar projects. Reminders and recurring tasks are awesome. Honestly, as a project manager, I'm literally in Asana all day everyday and am so thankful that it keeps me organized and on-track with everything.
What do you dislike about the product?
I do wish that I had some tips or tricks for organizing things a little more. One of the other teams I work with has a LOT of team members and would like to be able to see all project details at a glance, but they have a hard time using the project description because they're usually viewing from a task level, not a project level.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are coordinating about 10 projects per month with lead gen, creative, and development teams and are finding that we have the deliverables we need on time and aren't missing due dates. We also are able to hold people accountable for their work and timelines and keep everything organized and in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It will help keep your teams organized and help you stick to deadlines. I love how easy it is to communicate between teams, assign tasks to specific people, follow-up on past tasks with reminders, and set recurring tasks for things that you do regularly. Make sure to check out tutorials or chat with the Asana support team so that you can familiarize yourself with the interface to get the most out of all the features.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
ability to review video in asana
Very Useful
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that I can organize my weeks, all with using one helpful tool. Whether I think of something I need to complete or any of my co-workers, we can just add a quick task. The fact that in each task you can put the description and add other sub tasks that relate to what you are trying to do is awesome.
It really allows me to stay on top of things without trying to remember every little detail.
I also like putting my updates about the project in the comment sections, so my teammates can take a look to see where I am with something. The email reminders everyday is pretty cool too, just in case I forget to login and check.

What do you dislike about the product?
I can honestly say I haven't found something I don't like. Overall this app/website is very useful and user friendly!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Whether my company has a project we or I need to work on, we automatically go to Asana.
So I am able to come up with a solution to any issues by corresponding with my colleagues about the topic/issue via this website without it disrupting the work day.
My boss also assigned all my onboarding things I needed to get accomplished to get more familiar with the company, when I first started. It was hands down unlike any other thing I have seen at previous jobs. It really allowed me to know which direction I was heading and how to get there.

DO IT! It will seriously keep you organized and on top of all your tasks. I have already recommended this website/app to others. I love it and don't know where I would right now without it.
