"A great way to stay organized and on track!"
What do you like best about Asana?

I like having the ability to manage my own personal work, my team's work, projects and tasks all in one place. It's interface is easy to use and easy to customize for your own needs. I like being able to visually see where we are in the planning process of a project and it allows us to keep on track.I like being able to assign projects to someone.

What do you dislike about Asana?

There are so many ways you can use this product so sometimes it can feel overwhelming when you first start to use it.

What problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

My team and I are better able to keep on track with projects and see where we are in the process of accomplishing it. It's easy to also see who was delegated to do what. There is never any second guessing who was assigned what task. It holds team members accountable.

"All-in-one task manager and project oraganizer"
What do you like best about Asana?

The ability to not only manage tasks but also contain threads of conversations to tasks.

What do you dislike about Asana?

The UI for subtask details can be hidden. I offer a suggestion to expand and contract/hide them more easily, perhaps just the description field, with a character limitation of course, and then a go-to-task button to see the rest including comments.

What problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

Project management and scheduling priority. The Inbox and My Tasks gives a good overview of load and timeline requirement as it aggregates with other projects, keeping in mind other workspaces (clients).

I like this tool because through it we can integrate the team much more in collaboration and project fulfillment tasks in the stipulated times since its utilities allow us to easily track the compliance time, we can assign tasks and activities to completion Team collaborator, we can track the expenses and costs of each protecta. This tool is perfect for accountability to the entire work team of the net fulfillment of tasks. Additionally, it has a great feature, we can install some accessories to make this tool more complete and much more functional, as well as allowing us to share documents in an easy and simple way.

This tool is an all-in-one that works fantastically, I do not find problems in it, I like everything, however I would like them to implement automatic updates and not that they depend on each user.

Asana has helped us a lot in terms of the management and administration of the projects we receive, as well as each activity that is carried out in the office and in the field work. Monitoring is very easy, in addition, we can verify everything related to the fulfillment of the activities carried out in the company. We have been able to manage everything in a very easy and safe way, from the assignment of tasks, to the costs of each project carried out and the time invested in it.

"The best platform to collaborate with your team and be aware of your tasks"
What do you like best about Asana?

With asana I can already be aware of my tasks and the progress of the team that I have a load, multiple projects have been created and these have lists of activities where I can consult with the detail that considers the progress of the team globally or in a way individual if I notice that someone has not performed well I communicate with him to know the reasons and provide help, my activities are consulted in the "my tasks" section and the notifications or issues that I must promptly address are consulted in the inbox.

What do you dislike about Asana?

For some reason I always have conflicts when uploading lists in CSV of tasks, mainly with the format of dates, although I add the date in the template format shows that I download from the Asana page, I have reported this problem on multiple occasions but still They have not made any changes.

What problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

Implementing it was the best we could have done, we standardized the tool for everyone to follow their tasks and communicate to solve the challenges that each one has, when something happens in Asana, you find out, it is even better than sending an email to us because Asana is practical, you don't have to write the complete email, with the name you can find the team members, they receive notification and email with the detail every time there is an update.

"Asana is a tool that works extremely well"
What do you like best about Asana?

Asana is great to collect as many ideas as I want, and eventually, form a project with all those ideas that I've previously gathered. It's very easy to use and to keep track of all tasks depending on time and due-dates. It has features that help focus on time management, and I like how lists are displayed to be shown depending on what's important. It's also great that Asana has visually aesthetic boards that help me stay on track of what's going on between projects.

What do you dislike about Asana?

I wish Asana displayed my tasks in a more interactive way; the main page is scaterred with information that is not important to me most of the time because I mostly focus on the tasks and calendars, so I would prefer for the tasks to be displayed directly on my main page.

What problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

I think Asana has given me room to focus more on projects individually because it prioritizes the creation and distribution of tasks between teams, giving me more space to work on my time management as I please. It has been of great help because it's practical and its customization is very open and intuitive, helping me accomplish great results.

"Asana software"
What do you like best about Asana?

A wonderful tool for collaboration in a company, makes work faster and saves a lot of time. You don’t have to walk to plan meetings or manage communications by email and fax, Asana does the whole process. It provides good performance and better productivity by scheduling all tasks for every member. The easiest way to manage projects and assign task, roles and activities for everybody. Asana is web based, desktop and can work in smartphones like android.

What do you dislike about Asana?

I am yet to get the upsides of Asana Software.

What problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

Our company is using this software in all the department and is one of the best in the world of dynamic technology. It helps us in project management, we use it to assign roles and duties to all the members. It is also very vital during planning and executions of various projects. You can do planning using Asana, identify needed and available resources before starting the new project. The tool works in multiple devices including mobile devices.

"The website where the entire development team communicates to do the tasks and receive approval"
What do you like best about Asana?

It is an online office for me, the whole team knows the progress of each one, in which part of the task is found and if you can support or ask for help with something, adding members to the team and assigning tasks is very easy, just write part of the name and is chosen from the list that is displayed, when someone is added as a follower, he receives notifications throughout the process until it ends, which I perceive as an automation of mail, it is no longer necessary to write the emails so that the project manager stays aware, everything does asana automatically.

What do you dislike about Asana?

When I finish a task that is in the form of a list it no longer appears visible in the task pane, I must choose the option to show all the tasks to view it again and during the whole session it remains like this, if I close the session or the window and try again to see the task, I must select from the list to show all the tasks, this has been a bit awkward.

What problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

We can manage our time in a better way, with the help of the gantt chart it is possible to know the pending tasks globally and the deadlines to make the deliveries, when the project manager uploads new tasks, we can help you organize them according to priorities and assign them to team members who have more expertise in those areas that are required.
