Manager of Client Success
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is intuitive, easy to use, and helps keep our growing team organized with multiple tasks and projects for our clients.
What do you dislike about the product?
Honestly, the tool is great and with the improvements Asana is already making, I don't have anything I can put my finger on.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The business problem we are solving by using Asana is overall project management support - when a client has an issue, sends in an email, mentions an item they want us to look into on a call, we need some place to note the item, estimate the level or effort, breakdown the tasks, and then share it with the team and people doing the work. Asana is an excellent place for this shared project management.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I would highly recommend Asana for a project management software. We have some clients who use it, and we integrate with their projects, as well.
Great for collaborating with your team
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can assign team members tasks and get updates on where they are with tasks and attach documents. The calendar feature is really helpful in staying on track with projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the number of emails and notifications I get from the platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I think we have cut down on staff meetings through using Asana which everyone appreciates and we are able to accomplish more with the extra time!
Recommendations to others considering the product:
I enjoy using Asana and it's saved our team time!
Quick and Easy Task Manager
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is an out of the box solution that you can use individually or as a team. I personally think you get a lot more value out of the product when you use it as a collaborative task manager to divide out different pieces of a project. It's clean UI transfers well to mobile app and makes it easy to always see how much you have due at a given time. You can assign items to yourself or others, tag tasks to projects, have chats within the task or project, etc. There is a slack integration too but I haven't used it.
What do you dislike about the product?
A lot of desired features are hidden in the paid version.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Tracking tasks, recording projects, splitting out team responsibilities. It's great that it's shareable with my manager too so she always knows how much is on my plate. We can have chats in Asana too so that communication about a project stays within that project
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a shot, but it's best for a team.
amazing tool for project management across teams

What do you dislike about the product?
There are sometimes bugs ( while copying project or having multiple people mentions (@) in comment section.

Digital advertising projects. Easy to use, easy to set up, various options and integrations with other software.
Recommendations to others considering the product:

So Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
It was so easy to get set up and implement it for our team! It's so easy to streamline and get started, especially when you need to get something in place fast.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to be able to customize it a little more for our branding purposes and maybe have it fully integrated in our gmail dashboard!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are utilizing this to communicate about the status of projects we are working on to make sure we are staying on task and will have things done by the deadline.
Better than writing a "to-do" list
What do you like best about the product?
I like that there is one place where I can see all that I need to accomplish. I used to write down a to-do list every day, and this is way more efficient
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there was a way to integrate it into my calendar so I could get alerts about when I have upcoming tasks due - a week from now, a day from now or "tasks due today:
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping people accountable for the tasks they have been assigned
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure your employees are committed to using it. We "use it" but a lot of people never log-in or don't check it as often as they should
Great, but can be a bit too complex
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is great for project management as it allows you to properly track any task along with who did what, when and how. It is also a very good collaboration tool for such purporses.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has a steep learning curve apart from its basic features.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana allowed each of our internal teams to have a board to track all of their current issues and how they have been handled, watch over open issues and collaborate on them. It has forced the entire mentality of the team to change from spoken word to trackable actions.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
While we are still using Asana for some purposes, we have now moved a large portion of our projects' management to daPulse. While daPulse itself suffers from a few - different - issues, it also has several distinguishing features, and ultimately, it is worth a look before making the decision.
Awesome Task Management Tool for Teams
What do you like best about the product?
I LOVE Asana! I've tried many task management apps and this one is by far the best. I love that you can easily create templates of tasks and tweak them to match your current multi-part task. I use this on a team of 10+ and we manage a huge portfolio of clients using it.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hm...The only thing I can think of is that I'd like the project organization to be better. We've sort of jimmy-rigged our own system to track all of our projects on the left hand side, but if we could compress things using drop downs or something that would be nice.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're doing project management and client management with a fully virtual team. We're making sure that tasks don't fall through the cracks and having great success. I love that file management is integrated too.
Who can function without Asana?
What do you like best about the product?
Asana allows users to coordinate and handle projects as a team, effortlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
It would be nice for it to integrate into another calendar setup, such as outlook.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Asana for project tracking in all departments. We are able to see what other teams are working on and pass tasks back and forth.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Asana teaches time management and project tracking. If you value your time, then value your employees time and provide them with the tools to manage projects and tasks.
