"Unlocking Project Management Excellence with Asana"
What do you like best about Asana?

Asana provides a user-friendly and intuitive interface that makes it easy for individuals and teams to get started quickly without a steep learning curve. Users can customize workflows to match their specific processes, helping teams adapt the tool to their unique needs and methodologies. I use it on a daily basis for managing my ongoing projects.

What do you dislike about Asana?

Asana's pricing can be a downside for smaller teams and organizations, as advanced features like custom fields, portfolios, and timeline views are only available in premium paid plans.

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

Asana provides a structured system for creating, assigning, and tracking tasks. Users can easily organize tasks, set priorities, and monitor progress, leading to improved task management and timely completion. Asana centralizes communication by allowing task discussions, file attachments, and mentions, improving team collaboration, and ensuring all relevant information is within the task context. Asana facilitates remote collaboration by offering a cloud-based platform that allows team members to work from different locations and time zones, fostering productivity and flexibility.

"The organizational dream of every team – amazing, powerful and simple."
What do you like best about Asana?

I have been working with Asana for sometime now, and what strikes me the most is the straightforwardness that creates transparency in what we all do together. It has enough strength to work with our global goals and is organized to track our progress in tiny detail. In our team, we discovered that it was more achievable when everyone knew exactly what was needed to be done in order to attain common goals. Our work flow has been streamlined and made much clearer with the use of Asana. I love how Asana displays our milestones and tasks – it’s a roadmap to achievements.

What do you dislike about Asana?

However, even though Asana is a complete platform, the fast pace of growth sometimes overruns the initiative to redesign some features. Wonderful in years of use, but it seems as if the ability to innovate within the service has become a little flat.

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

Our team has utilized the Asana software to eliminate the issue of project fragmentation and poor communication among members. It streamlines our activities and information flows which are crucial in the fast-paced work environment I operate in. The benefit is clear: higher productivity and enhanced teamwork.

"One of the best work management tools"
What do you like best about Asana?

This has been a true influence for me in my capacity of handling multiple projects, asana’s board view. It has an easily understandable design that assists in task simplification with clients, helping in monitoring the course of projects. The calendar view is really great at helping organize the timeline. Specifically, the Branding and Website projects blend together. This aspect, by itself, has been vital in my daily activities.

What do you dislike about Asana?

The software is not easy all the time, especially when the updates are released. Some of the parameters are complex to manipulate, especially if you share them with the development team.

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

The issue of having several project timelines and deliverables at a time is among some of the problems that Asana has addressed. Through its features, it becomes a center for tracking and responding to tasks thus no redundancies. Someone, who is strongly committed to the cloud solutions, has found it easier to coordinate workflow as well as task tracking.

"Collaboration and project management made easy with Asana."
What do you like best about Asana?

For a very long time, Asana has been one of my favourite applications that come in handy when organizing projects. The free version is already powerful, and for business use, the pricing is decent, as it provides a lot of features. I particularly value its monitoring system that enables me to keep track of my fiscal objectives and endeavors. It works seamlessly with other tools enabling me to share information, ideas, plans, and objectives with my team members during ongoing projects.

What do you dislike about Asana?

Users face some learning curves, particularly those who are somehow resistant to technological devices. The software is quite rich but I think the UI could be improved, specifically for organization and reporting purposes.

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

My financial projects and tasks have greatly been simplified by Asana. It helps me to reduce the time I was using to track and communicate with my team. My job requires strict timelines for numbers and deadlines.

"Asana, your personal handy dandy do everything, everywhere, all at once."
What do you like best about Asana?

Easiest do-it-all tool for productivity collaborations, brainstorming, assigning tasks, and basically, getting things done the right way, in the right time frame, without the hassle of getting lost in it all..

What do you dislike about Asana?

If there was one thing I'd nitpick about Asana, it would be how project management comes as easy as it goes, every time. No more roundabouts, no deadends, no pitfalls. I mean, can life be any more difficult? Hah!

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

As a product listing copywriter, Asana helps to assign and track project tasks. More than just a tool for management, Asana helps bridge gaps in comms and rallies everyone to victory with every completed assignment, however difficult or tedious it becomes.

What do you dislike about Asana?

Can get overcrowded, would be amazing if there was colour coding to make things clearer so it doesn't all blend together.

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

Managing our workload and sharing amongst teams.

"Asana makes me and my team very productive"
What do you like best about Asana?

1. All important and even the smallest points are at one place, this ensures project manager, stakeholders and development team are in sync. 2. Comments make it interactive. 3. Easy to share tasks and manage the workload. 4. Better clarity and holistic view of the feature/product

What do you dislike about Asana?

Many times teammates are not familiar with Asana, they need to learn to use it. It needs a paid licence to access which could be the reason that everyone is not provided access to it in the team. Although only read access can be a savior in this case.

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

My team uses this to get the big picture of the product using Asana. Helps to share and interact with stakeholders using comments. Easy layout. We use it to give a ballpark estimate for development of the feature, which otherwise is a tedious task if requirements are scattered

"Asana makes online project management and collaboration more manageable."
What do you like best about Asana?

I’ve actually used Asana in our organisation for some time and I’m very excited about what it can do. To start with, the free version provides rich functionality for beginning project management practice. It is a lot of integration options so our team can communicate with other tools we already use. Asana empowers visual boards and timelines for managing projects more transparently and organized. Additionally, the commercial packages have more advanced features that simplify operations, these operational enhancements results to rather expedite facilitation, especially for big enterprises or projects.

What do you dislike about Asana?

Regarding Asana, technology resistance can be experienced from new users in as much as it has a slightly steep learning curve. Even though the software is packed with features, I think they could simplify some views and improve reporting to provide simpler organizational insights.

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

It is fighting to get multiple projects and tasks into the same streamline and in sync, that’s what Asana does. That is to say that I am able to track progress with ease and also identify bottlenecks. Further, it promotes team spirit as everyone speaks the same language and shares the same objectives.

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

Managing expectations for clients and the amount of features available to keep the team up to date and assist in supporting when capacity avails. Our team uses Asana on a daily bases and we have it integrated into our systems and processes.

What do you dislike about Asana?

Can be improved on the UI for easier navigation and setup

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

Asana solves a huge communications grey area and allows the unkown to be known. Managing expectations is the keyword here.

"It's really easy to use Asana"
What do you like best about Asana?

Asana is a great tool for managing tasks for multiple different projects. I really like how easy it is to create and manage tasks not only from Asana but also using the Chrom Extension or directly from a Slack Conversation.

What do you dislike about Asana?

There's nothing to dislike about Asana but the Chrome Extension is really slow and it needs to be optimized.

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

Asana helps in managing day-to-day tasks and activities and different projects in a single platform.

"The best for managing workflow and times"
What do you like best about Asana?

The possibility to manage your own workload and others. It gives visibility of "The big picture" to you and your superiors. Things that are not clear for them such as amount of work, times and priorities. The communication improved a lot since we started usin asana. For me, the real value lays in being able to organize my everyday tasks and tag them in different projects. The calendar visibility is one of it's best tools, you can drag and drop as needed any task you are working on, making it easy to change the date of a task. We tried with many different softwares before: Basecamp, Trello, etc; but none of them were as full and satisfying. Features like time tracking, customizable permissions, risk management, team collaboration and much more.

What do you dislike about Asana?

You are not able to assign tasks and tag them in other boards without appearing on them. This was the most problematic tool to me.

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

Times and workload are much more visible. Good organization.Conectivity with other applications and softwares.
