Asana review from a designer's point of view
What do you like best about the product?
I can keep track of latest version of a project.
What do you dislike about the product?
Low res image preview. When I deliver a file, the immediate preview is low res and causes the recipient to download a low res version of the file. If downloaded it should default to the original size.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management

I use it every day.
What do you like best about the product?
I like being able to create subtasks with deadlines, to create tasks that serve as header lines, and the keystrokes that allow me to quickly push a task to Upcoming or Later.
What do you dislike about the product?
It wasn't robust enough to serve as a project management tool for my team. I use it to organize my own personal daily tasks, but it didn't cut it when I was considering content management tools. We use Airtable for that now.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helped me organize my day to day by being able to designate tasks to morning, afternoon, and evening.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It works for personal task management, but isn't customizable enough to serve as a project management tool.
The best option, but still not great
What do you like best about the product?
It's very flexible and capable, and I like the personality in the UX.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface often feels clunky and confusing and leaves a lot of work to the user in order to keep things organized. Asana doesn't have a POV.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking tasks, coordinating projects, the usual.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's better than JIRA by a long shot, but you really need to have someone who is good at project management and your team needs to follow the established patterns and rules. Otherwise, it becomes chaotic and useless.
Wonderful experience
What do you like best about the product?
I love how each of the tasks can be separated into multiple subtasks and how projects can be moved from categories easily..ie. finished, on hold, on deck.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish it had a better way of filtering notifications.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Graphic design and production problems. Helping us to keep up with all of our upcoming assignments and stay in touch with our production manager easier.
Love this product
What do you like best about the product?
I like how easy it is to add in new to-dos, the user face is very easy to use and get a good picture of where I am at with all my to-dos for the day/week. It is a great tool to stay ahead and not have things fall through the cracks.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to do a reoccurring event for a specific day of the week. I also wish there was a way to make a task a priority.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has helped me organize all my to-dos especially when my email gets crazy. The benefits I have realized is that I do not miss follow ups with clients and I am able to organize my bigger projects that I have to complete.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
If you are looking for a quick and easy to-do list this the product!
Love Asana
What do you like best about the product?
I love how you can create tasks then sub tasks while also assigning other people to tasks as well
What do you dislike about the product?
An actual flow chart would be great to have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Much easier to assign tasks and have a much easier time organizing projects.
Love Asana - keeps me on track!
What do you like best about the product?
I love that Asana is awesome in planning out projects and assigning others to the task. It makes it so easy to have a template and then reuse it for other projects again and again. Thanks to asana I am always on top of my tasks!
What do you dislike about the product?
I think it would be nice to have a better way of managing the groups I am in. Perhaps a control panel under Settings. Also I dislike how difficult it is to unsync my calendar (specifically my i.cal). It'd be great to one day have a support team I can call at Asana instead of just emailing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's hard for us to always remember our SOPs but having them in Asana under templates makes it 10x easier to follow through.
Task manager built with the user in mind
What do you like best about the product?
It's clean interface. It makes it easy to figure out for the most part how things are organized
What do you dislike about the product?
It's easy to lose track of nested tasks
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it in tandem with my CRM tool
Best thing smokin!
What do you like best about the product?
Time management! Keeps me on top of my job! Without Asana I would be lost!
What do you dislike about the product?
That I can’t use it more than my email!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I realized that I drop the ball a lot when not using Asana. I use it more than my email.
A Useful Tool for Coordination
What do you like best about the product?
Easy interface and intuitive controls. The ability to coordinate remotely has helped improve my teams efficiency and we are able to get more done faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
Project summaries need a larger preview.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Remaining on the same page, keeping open lines of communication. Allows us all to work remotely and have less email back and forth.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Get over some of the hurdles learning to use it, and get the mobile version for your tablet or phone. It works great!
