Asana Reviews: 4.3/5 — Solid Choice

The ease of use and interface means its very intuitive. There are always new features to discover but doing so isn´t a chore or something that requires lengthy time spent trying to do so.

I wish that there were certain features that didn´t require an additional app integration.

Knowing who is doing what / when / where information is being stored. I dont have to look in four different places to find the information.

I'm not chasing my tail when it comes to staying on top of work. The thing, I like most about it is that I don't have to think about what to do next, it just pops up! It makes me feel like I am working on the business and not just in it as well. From a productivity point of view, this is definitely a great programme to have.

That I didn't discover it months earlier!

Keeping me up to date and on top of work and priorities

Super easy to learn and all the trainings are excellent. It's so easy to find the answer for almost anything and take trainings that are relevant to the way I personally use Asana.

Asana is missing certain features that I consider vital, like 2-way calendar syncing (it only works in one direction) and an ability to build in the time for a task to be done (ie, by 3pm, by COB) instead of just the date.

Asana allows us to manage long term projects that we are working on with external groups. We maintain control of the project but they can add updates and check off tasks. It's more collaborative and more visual. I also like it for personal tasks that get repeated a lot, where there are a ton of tasks associated with a bigger task that I repeat on a regular basis.

Asana has helped me organize my tasks. Now my team has joined Asana as well, so I am able to more effectively communicate with them. Asana has streamlined our projects and has helped us be more effective and efficient as a team. It has been easy for me to utilize & implementing it to our team went well because each person was able to join at their own pace!

The only downside would be that I would love to access the rule features on my premium subscription since my company does not want to upgrade our plan at this time!

Asana is helping solve the issue of being overwhelmed with tasks. They are simplifying and clarifying my work load.

I can quickly ramp up using this doing a variety of things, e.g. traditonal projects, workflows, etc.

I have not used this extensively enough to know.

Showing workflow in graphical form

There are so many different features that are all easy to manage. I use the inbox and personal calendar DAILY, it's such a help. I also love that you can toggle between views for projects like List, Board, and Timeline

Nothing, I don't have the premium version yet (my organization is considering a month-by-month subscription at the moment so I'm excited to see how helpful the premium features will be

Streamlining project expectationa across my time, being able to see when due dates are being missed and being able to comment to ask for updates.

Very intuitive and aesthetically pleasing project management tool

Nothing--I love the tool, community, and resources available

Creates transparency for the full team, giving insight at any moment into what is going on cross-functionally. Asana also enables us to work towards common goals seamlessly, keeping our objectives on track.

The flexibility and options for tasks and projects. It's easy to use and easy to integrate. Use frequently.

Can get complicated while using. So many things that don't apply to single users.

Task prioritization is much easier with Asana. Next actions for projects. Very helpful being able to add contexts. Makes it easy to fill short open bl9cks of time with quick wins.

Being able to track projects, collaborate with others, share info and documents

I would like to have more ways to track time on each task

Managing diffrent projects at the same time

Asana is very easy to use. You can have different teams and projects and also assign certain viewers to them. You assign tasks to which users will be responsible for them and then they receive an email and will input their progress for everyone to see. We use this for weekly and quarterly meetings, special long term projects, and anything else that needs collaboration with several people.

I am not a fan of the "consider updating your project" emails that I receive as an administrator. I use one of the same projects year round and just add to it every quarter but Asana sends me emails asking me to consider updating my task. I also don't like the new upgrade they did to the viewing page but it isn't difficult. I just liked the old one better.

We use this for our Traction L10 meetings and projects. We put the L10 itinerary on there with sub tasks. It helps us keep track of things we have had problems with and also things that we need to do to get things taken care of. With Asana everyone on the team can see what everyone is working on and they can communicate with each other.

It is easy to use and has tons of features to collaborate with the team,

AI feature is not available yet for the personal use. It is available at certain subscription.

I have moved away from pen & paper to list down my daily tasks at the start of the day. I use Asana to improve my daily efficiency and also use it to manage the project efficiently.

i like how easy it is to see all of my tasks and the tasks from my team members. It makes it easy to collaborate and have my boss approve projects.

Honestly I have no issues so far. This is the first company I've worked at that uses Asana and I can't imagine not using it.

It helps me keep track of my projects and allows my project manager to create project requests and have our boss approve them.

This was my first accessing AND using Asana. The trainer was engaging, informative, and provided an interactive space for us as participants to not only see the program, but to use it in real time. The examples were appropriate for a novice user, and he did check-ins along the way to make sure we were tracking well with the material. I will be using this system as a part of my everyday workflow, so I can appreciate having a tool to assist me with being more efficient. I also appreciated the Q&A that was addressed live but his support team. This was an excellent session and I will be sure to attend additional trainings offered through the site.

None to note at this time. I think that as I learn the system more, I may be able to provide feedback here, but I'm hoping I won't need to report dislikes.

Having a collaborative tool to use across all of the projects that I manage within my role.

It provides many possibilities to automate reptitive tasks, give a bird's eye view of what's going on and keeps everyone informed

It can be difficult to get people onboard, if they already have their own way of working

Creating checklists with task templates ensures that I don't forget any important element in my recurring tasks

It is easy to use and there is lots of training in different ways. I love the ability to automate using workflows and using templates for repetative tasks. Easy to integrate with Microsoft Teams. Great customer service. I can't wait to continue to use it daily and save time.

As a division admin I don't have access to see who has created portfolios. We have limited amount of them and it would be nice to know who created what so I would reach out and help manage the number. The only other thing is having to purchase in groups of 10 licenses. We are a smaller org and having to pay 10 when only needing one more can be hard on the budget.

Teams are able to more easily organize tasks, report on status and collaborate with other teams.

the possibility to share the project with multiple teams just connecting projects and portfolios

projects cannot be exported new features cannot be applied to existing projects

it is all in one place avoiding duplication of tools and tasks

My favorite thing about Asana is that it is a hub for activity and can cover so much cross-functional work. It can be used for many types of projects, can scale up or down depending on needs, and can be helpful especially when teams are in different physical locations.

My only downsides are that there are so many features and capabilites that it can be intimidating for novices.

Asana is aiding in general organization of work and task/project management. It is also helping visualize posting schedule and team bandwidth. Asana in this way benefits my work and aids in me keeping track of my team's and organization's projects and goals.

I like how As a na helps us collaborate projects at ease because of its features that I think were just made for our need. I like the simplicity with Asana which makes it easy to use. The customer support are always ready to help you when faced with a problem.

I have been using Asana and l have had no dislikes with them.

The way we used to put pins or notes on Calender's in order to remember when something should be done and finished but this way people tend to forget a lot. So Asana come up with deu dates, Mass updates & Calendar views in their platform which have automated features therefore saving time and effort of keeping all this things in mind. Now l can just use Asana to create and assign projects at ease. Asana has just made my work easy.

Asana has made organization of tasks easy, I like that. Asana is easy to set up. I like the interface it uses cause is user-friendly. With Asana am always organized and I deliver to my clients on time. Asana also has fantastic features.

There is nothing I dislike with Asana so am fine with Asana.

Unlike in the past organizing tasks and managing projects was hard but Asana came with solutions to help have easy ways to manage tasks by Digitalizing them to be more helpful. I like now you can have deadlines to when something should be finished.

I love being able to use Asana for both professional and personal aspects and being able to see everything in the one place. It's so easy to use - from set up to every day life

Hoping for more free functionality! Maybe... :-)

Asana is my one-stop-shop to help me keep my life on track

The organization and time saving tools it provides to it's users.

Nothing! So far I'm enjoying every feature Asana has.

Streamlining workflow

I love the breakdown of tasks and automation. It means I can be really specific with projects to do's, and then not have to manually repeat steps or move things around.

The least helpful part is there's no notes pad, you can't document information beyond a task or project for anyone to come and use.

It's helping our teams communicate on projects and brining clarity to deadlines and tasks.

I like the fact that it's simplifies projects and work processes, promotes communication within team members and gives insights as to where everyone is at, within a timeframe

Nothing to dislike really. Just looking forward to future integrations

Removes lags and bottlenecks in Project Delivery: Asana helps us track the progress made per project, and expose blockers or dependencies which may affect timely completion of projects. Proper Project Workflow: Because of Asana, we have well-organized project workflows that guarantee successful implementation/execution of projects across multiple teams on any given project.

Asana ease information flow by providing a platform for everyone to share their objectives,this attracts more support from team players increasing productivity.

Asana keeps everyone focused tracing company objectives finding hard to fing negative things about it.

Create more efficient and seamless data management across management maximizing productivity and profits.

Asana is loaded with features for small business, even at the free level. Except for Gantt view, the views available that I use most often are calendar (marketing purposes), list (checklist, inventory, etc), and KanBan (Sales pipeline). I use it to manage a hiring process, social media content planning, sales pipeline with reminders and subtasks and notes to allow me to follow up and share tasks with other team members. Additionally I like its ease of use, very intuitive, I can add and remove temporary users, VA's give them access to only certain projects and block access to other projects. I have personal spaces set up that I don't want coworkers/VAs to access r view, and finance projects that I don't want marketing people to see and vice-versa. You have complete control. Another plus is the mobile app.Taks with deadline reminders (date and time) popup as a notification on your phone and if you take a sales call on your phone you can put notes right away and on your hone without having to log onto your computer. The mobile app is probably used more than the computer/website because its full featured and easy to use. When I ave downtime I just whip out the app and call my next lead easily with the name and contact info safely stored in the app.

No Gannt view (free version) but other than that it has a lot more going for it (which is why I keep using it after 2 years). I hav zapier connected to FB inquiries that adds names and tasks to my sales pipeline its very versatile!

I needed a way to track my leads and current clients, this is my primary reason for use and it does it great. I can add notes and tasks, and subtasks and stay organized with leads and client preferences.

The ability to assign a task to someone else without having to notify them via another source.

There are SO many features that sometimes it's hard to tell if you're using it to the best of it's abilities.

With integration, everything is in one place and the whole team is on the same page.

My team and I just integrated this year with Asana. I cannot tell you how much it has helped our workflow, ignited a new motivation and keep us enaged more as a remote team.

Nothing! It is intuative, easy to use and I love their featured templates.

As a fully remote team, Asana helps us stay connected, manage work flows and has increased motiovation/productivity.

Replace the endless to do lists with functional tasks that help you acheive the project step by step. Super easy to use, and there are many advanced features I am only just starting to learn about.

Not everyone in my organization uses Asana.

Replaces individual to do lists with shared dashboard to check on project progress.

While I am early in my adoption of Asana and therefore have not yet gained a comprehensive understanding of the application, what I have learned is very impressive. Really like the task managment capabilities. Setting up projects seems very straightforward and intuitive. Use it every day now for organizing and tracking my tasks. Customer support and training seems top notch also.

Without the training Asana is an app with a pretty steep learning curve. But, I am increasingly coming to realize the benefits of Asana are going to be well worth the effort.

Gathering all my project information and task information in one place where I can have an integrated, single source of truth about my work.

The best part is to create the task which needs to be completed at the start of the work. And can prioritise the work.

Nothing, this tool is very useful. There is nothing in particular which I dislike. Everything seems to be perfect.

Acts as a notes to create the task to be completed. Prioritise work. Everyone will know what are we working on. Assigning task is easier.
