Great Email Replacement for Task Management
What do you like best about the product?
I love the modern, intuitive interface. It's incredibly easy to use and setup, so there's basically no implementation. I do enjoy the templates offered, or the ability to create your own templates. It's pretty, easy, and fairly inexpensive. As cheesy as this sounds, it's actually kind of fun and pretty to work inside of asana... which makes you want to use it more often.
What do you dislike about the product?
There could be a bit more robust functionality, but for marketing project management... it gets the job done. I would like more functionality around subtasks, I think the organization and labeling of subtasks is lacking.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Project management for marketing. It's great as replacing email for managing various tasks.

Simplified Task and Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
The simple and intuitive interface is its strongest feature. I love the flexibility within the task creation functions and the ability to create custom fields. While we mainly use Asana for projects it is an equally effective meeting agenda tool and the fact that you can assign a task to multiple agendas (projects) helps to ensure that items are discussed with all relevant parties while cutting down on email.
What do you dislike about the product?
I appreciate the simplicity, but a more robust feature set around document creation and management as well as built-in time tracking would be very helpful. The current method of attaching files to projects is not well organized and creates version control issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are trying to execute projects faster while delivering better results (isn't everybody). Asana helps us accomplish this by providing a detailed dashboard via google sheets that easily identifies projects at risk of "getting stuck" so we can better prioritize resources and stay on track. Creating regular operational routines to provide updates via the project progress communication feature has greatly helped stakeholders stay connected to projects while minimizing the need to coordinate status meetings.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make sure you give your teams time to adopt certain features on their own schedule. Start simply and slowly with minimal regulation or standardization. Be available and enthusiastic to provide support and don't be afraid to test different approaches before determining what practices are truly "leading".
Decent Project Managment System
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has worked pretty well for our company and applying the Scrum/Agile method. The team dashboard allows you to see what stage a project is in making it easier for Project Managers to keep track of progress.
What do you dislike about the product?
Just from past systems I have used, it would be nice to at least be able to set up a project that say once a copywriter has completed the copy and checked off the task, I am then notified to begin the next step of the project. Right now, it's heavy on having the PM come in and then create a task and assign accordingly. Causes a little bit of inefficiencies.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Helping to stay organized with using Scrum/Agile. Very visual based.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Do your research and figure out what the best project management system is for your company.
