Asana Reviews & Product Details

Asana Overview
What is Asana?

Considered one of the pioneering cloud-based project management tools, Asana offers four views for its users – List View, Timeline, Calendar, and Boards – all of which help teams get both a macro and micro view of all the moving parts of projects and tasks. It provides a comprehensive roadmap of ongoing projects from start to finish, clearly outlining dependencies, project milestones, and feedback and approval processes. For project managers, strong reporting capabilities that show completion rates, individual workloads, and potential delays just to name a few create opportunities for real-time project optimization, collaboration, stronger forecasting, and better planning for future similar projects.

"The best way to organize your tasks"
What do you like best about Asana?

The power to assign tasks to teammates in real time, email notification and project segmentation makes it easier for us to control and make good use of time. It is possible to connect it with Google Drive and other solutions.

What do you dislike about Asana?

The cost it has can be very expensive for some teams, since billing is per user and not per work team. Another thing is that if you don't take the time to understand it, you can't fully take advantage of the platform.

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

Asana helped us to organize the company's workflow better, giving the possibility of constant monitoring of the tasks that are carried out. We started with the free license, and we are already paying for it.

"plan your work!"
What do you like best about Asana?

Asana allows me to keep all my work in order. Definitely a very good helper if you are doing teamwork. Plus, it's a great warehouse. Even if I close the tasks, the latest versions of the jobs remain saved there.

What do you dislike about Asana?

There is an issue in asana that I would like to be fixed. After you open the task, you can assign it to only 1 person. Since this is a team job, some jobs may have more than one responsibility. therefore more than one person can be added.

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

Asana allows me to follow my work much more regularly. It has a very simple and understandable interface for teams. I can schedule my work and follow my other teammates.

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

From my experience, Asana is very easy to use; I am essay track my junior's tasks, as well as I can set deadlines. Asana also Supports third-party tools such as Google Drive, Slack, and Dropbox.

What do you dislike about Asana?

For my juniors, Asana is hard to understand because its UI is complex. Also, Asaana Gives Limited Free Plan And that free plan may not be sufficient for me.

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

As I said before, UI can be better understood. For the particular task, Asana has provided a comment section as well as they need to give disabled text support if, from the senior task allocated to someone, then they can not edit or delete that task.

There is only one thing that I dislike in Asana that it does not support time tracking.

"Great tool"
What do you like best about Asana?

We use Asana for daily tasks. It is straightforward to assign tasks and modify them, validate or track the incomplete ones. Very intuitive tool.

What do you dislike about Asana?

For our use, I can find a negative point about Asana.

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

It is solving collaborations for daily tasks that are automatically created by forwarding the email or calendar update to the Asana group email, which generates a task. From there, we know the tasks are created automatically and we can complete them independently without worrying if a teammate already worked on it.

"Love using this product for task management"
What do you like best about Asana?

We have many clients we are constantly creating projects for. This tool is great for compiling my daily tasks as well as keeping track of all the things due at the moment.

What do you dislike about Asana?

I am sad that the free version does not allow custom organizing features. I would like the dashboard feature to be available on the premium level rather than the elite fancy expensive level. Or if there were an equivalent dashboard feature we could use for free would be great.

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

Its helps keep track of where projects are at without cluttering the task to do list. I like that I can add specific columns or sections to make the tasks appear like they are moving toward completion.

"Critical To Our Team For Years"
What do you like best about Asana?

- The learning curve was easy for all of my staff members. - Layout is awesome. Easy to separate everything by projects. - I can easily track the progress of my staff members. And know what else they are working on.

What do you dislike about Asana?

- I can't get all my staff to use it because they still have an aversion to task software. Wish it was designed in a way to win them over to using this critical tool.

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

I needed a way to easily collaborate on projects, see what my team was working on and organize task in project format. Asana does all of that! We don't have an office space so having Asana to help us communicate, work together and stay on track for our goals has been crucial.

"all genius apps are simple and loved: loke Asana for project teams and business management"
What do you like best about Asana?

It is simple as Genius and has an efficient, logical flow from up to down, making it very readable. It can build your workflows and makes it easy to discuss within the team, sending invites and reminders as scheduled. It works well with presentations and contract management tasks. It has exceptional board and kanban views and capabilities to set your working time schedule.

What do you dislike about Asana?

You need to use a separate time-tracking engine if you are service oriented. You mostly have to use different budget-controlling apps or ERP. Asana is good for decision flow but lacks analytical capabilities to be used within a single system for not using connectivity and integrations with different auth methods. WOuld be great to have reminders with use of AI - not to remind you, but you are telling to bot for updates on relevant tasks or scheduling and rescheduling with the use of RPA.

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

We are managing the work of the product development team and planning to extend its use for management reporting and accounting tasks. It makes us operate with 20% less headcount.

"Nos permite organizar y llevar taras y errores dentro de la plataforma"
What do you like best about Asana?

En esta bandeja llevamos y organizamos tareas y errores que pueden programarse y llevar un control de los pendientes. Como uso principal llevamos y reportamos errores que se presenten en la plataforma.

What do you dislike about Asana?

Actualmente se hace un poco engorroso el tema de poder identificar algunas tareas en las bandejas principales o proyectos asignados. Es decir, visualmente puede ser confusa la información que nos aparece.

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

Es de nuestras herramientas principales. En esta dependiendo el proyecto dentro de la organización se crean tareas y se llevan con el equipo en cargado. Ejemplo: Yo me encuentro en el área de soporte técnico del software y a través de asana reportamos a través de tareas en Asana los errores que se presentan, de esta forma asignamos el proyecto, el área y fechas de entregas para que puedan ser solucionados.
