Effective and easy to use project management software.
What do you like best about the product?
I love that it's a one stop shop. It includes everything for organization, communication, and tracking - I can finish a project from start to finish with a team of people without needing to use anything outside of Asana.
What do you dislike about the product?
While it is simple, it is one more thing for people to log into and learn to use.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows for me to efficiently work with a team in a long-term, complex project. It is so much more efficient than keeping separate to-do lists and wondering what has been complete.
So good—and so free!
What do you like best about the product?
I've been using Asana for over a year for both my business as a solopreneur and my personal tasks. I even use it with my interns. It's a terrific tool for project management, and everyone that I introduce it to can't believe it's free! I even heard a millionaire once mention that she and her small team use the free version. So, it works for a small startup like mine as well as some of the big guys. So easy to use and great options. I strongly prefer it over other tools like Trello and Basecamp.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it would remember how I like my tasks sorted for my board. And I wish my interns boards looked exactly like mine. Not sure why they don't. Those aren't a big deal at all, just picky things that I noticed.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management for myself as well as managing interns. It's a super easy way to outline projects, tasks, and subtasks. And very easy to change due dates or details when needed. And I certainly love checking something off my list and seeing it disappear! :)
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try! I love it, and have suggested it to many others!
A must-have project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
The first thing that I immediately liked on Asana was the look and feel. It is clean and the ability to customize it makes it even more appealing.
The philosophy behind it is straightforward and very easy to understand.
Team and projects are the heart of the system. On each project, there are tasks and subtasks. That allows teams to organize and break down each project into multiple sections.
Features such are templates, tagging and easy assignment as well as timeline offer a great set of tools that help the overall process.
Also, addons like Everhour (time tracking) provide additional functionality to the product.

What do you dislike about the product?
Asana lucks the ability to have a full view of an employee across all projects that he/she is involved. This is something that will be added in the near future though.
Also, I would love to see more options that resemble Jira - like sprints for example.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is the single PM tool that we use internally and externally with clients. This way we have a single point of reference for all our communication and project management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is an amazing tool that can be used to track the activities of an entire company to a single place. The toolset is extremely easy to use and add-ons provide even more functionality to the product. We removed all other tools (Podio, Basecamp) from our toolset and now we use Asana internally and externally.
Asana allows me to be more organized and collaborate with my team better.
What do you like best about the product?
I love the master schedule which allows us to collaborate as a team on projects as well as see each other's individual projects we are working on with deadlines that are due at any point.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that it doesn't seem as user friendly as other Google apps I have used.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaborating on projects, remembering and meeting deadlines
Awesome task management tool
What do you like best about the product?
I love the ability to create task lists for different projects and set clear due dates that are easy to keep track of.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that there is no option to set photo covers for tasks and that I cannot assign a task to more than one person.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before Asana, delegating tasks to my team was a difficult mission and often times people would have to jot down projects and other things I ask them to do. Now, I can just create tasks and assign them to the necessary person and when they are complete, they just assign the task back to me and I can be notified and take a look. It is super beneficial that I can organize everything that needs to get done into separate project tabs and then create sub groups of smaller tasks that need to be done within that project. It is very convenient.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would definitely recommend Asana to any one who is working on a project in which organization and due dates are important. It is even great for personal use because it will help you keep track of what needs to get done and which items are a priority. You can leave notes in each task so that you don't forget a thing.
User friendly task manager for small and big businesses
What do you like best about the product?
The ability to collaborate with colleges easily. I love the tag function. It allows to to keep al my projects grouped together while being able to separate them out based on skill and type. It also keeps side conversations related to each task within context and easy to reference later. I also love how customizable the project areas. Creating a layout that suits your work and makes the easiest flow for viewers
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike that you cannot assign a task to more than one person. Sometimes when people are only followers they don't always get notified of changes. I also think being able to rate a task on progress, showing half done, would be helpful and motivating. The mobile app could use some upgrading. It is not as user friendly or well laid out as the desktop version. And a superficial thing is to have the little celebratory animals more often. :)
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it for my work for collaborative tasks as well as a way for the entire organization to be aware of what other team members are doing. I think it helps build team unity in the fact that we all see the work going into the organization. And it helps us delegate more efficiently
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana is a great way for a team to unity over projects, weather that is long distance or just to increase communication and access to expectations within teams. The free trail verses makes it possible for small businesses to trail run it without the cost risk.
I super love Asana for project management
What do you like best about the product?
I have been using Asana when they were still new to the market. Asana makes project management as easy as one to three. The scheduling features and completion are so easy to use. You don't need to be tech savvy to use it in organizing your projects or business.
What do you dislike about the product?
Asana is so perfect for me and I can't find a single flaw on it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps you to track project completion, who's working on a certain tasks and what are the challenges to overcome to hit the deadline. Asana saves you time since you can manage all you projects and your team all in one place.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You will never regret if you use this project management tool. It allows you to use list or boards like in Trello.
Looking positively forward to using the program
What do you like best about the product?
I like the functionality of the program. I will be utilizing it to help keep my small business organized between all three of our members, only in the future to allow us to grow.
What do you dislike about the product?
I have barely utilized the program, it is still new to me
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization - We currently use Outlook for the two members - but need to open it up to all of us
Easy online task manager and planner.
What do you like best about the product?
I use asana daily. I write down all the tasks I need to do and love how I can set it to be a reoccurring task so I never forget. I also love how others can join in for group projects and can assign tasks etc. I have many group assignments and it's wonderful how everything- all communication- can be in one spot. Nothing really falls through the cracks and makes it really simple.
What do you dislike about the product?
There hasn’t been anything as of yet that I have not liked. I haven't had any issues arise or anything that would make getting my work done harder.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I’m solving the chance of forgetting to do the little things. There are a lot of little things that go into my job and a lot of small tasks- so Asana helps keep track of all of that. Also, I’m solving the issue of being able to collaborate with others who don’t work in the same office as you. Around sixty percent of my work is a collaboration with someone else who doe does not work in my office. So, Asana creates the atmosphere online like we do work together.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
You will never regret signing up with Asana. If you struggle with learning new databases and programs- Asana is very easy to use and there are tutorials to teach you if you still struggle.
So many features and capabilities
What do you like best about the product?
Asana keeps me accountable. I love the different views offered and the ease of collaborating. Customization is super helpful, from tags to boards to alerts.
What do you dislike about the product?
From time to time, is difficult to keep track of important tasks, projects, and notes. My team has a lot going on so it is easy for things to get lost in the shuffle, even with email reminders and the Inbox. And, though it is very helpful, the levels of customization can be overwhelming and contributes to the "missing important details" sentiment.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My team's overall communication has improved through the use of the tool.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Take advantage of the training videos. There are so many available features out there that you might not know about.
