Clear centralized communication
What do you like best about the product?
Easy to manage projects and tasks across different departments, making it easy to set clear goals and clear expectations with all the relevant knowledge centralized.
What do you dislike about the product?
It took a little time to fully understand the platform to be able to use it. Around a month of daily use to fully take advantage of the software. I wish I could remove some of the tabs that are automatically populated when I start a new template
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana is solving my daily struggle with decision fatigue and allows us to work efficiently through not just different internal teams but as well as contractors
This is not a Project Management Platform, it is a task collaboration platform.
What do you like best about the product?
I appreciate the AI support of status reporting, when it works well.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was more like Microsoft Project. My organization is forcing a switch to Asana for our PMO, but Asana is not built to manage formal, complex projects. This is a huge step backward for us; there is no % complete at the task level, section headers cannot have details stored in adjoining columns, I can't manage effort, dependencies are very finicky (I would like to enter text to control the type of dependency and lag/lead time), I can't assign tasks to multiple people (and adding collaborators is not sufficient), Milestones are not managed properly, and it is a shame that this system touts itself as a project management platform.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I appreciate the collaborative comments on tasks.
Asana helps us stay organized across clients
What do you like best about the product?
As a consulting firm, we have so many clients running at once, all with different deliverables. Asana allows us to easily track things, across different teams so that we don't miss any deadlines. I love that we can communicate within the comments section, versus having to trace down information in Slack about a given task.
What do you dislike about the product?
Haven't found a way to integrate with what we do via Slack yet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Organization across multiple clients to track deliverables and updates.
Asana is one of the better project management solutions I've used
What do you like best about the product?
asana helps in project management to connect between teams to achieve a common goal. user friendly for beginners in daily use.
What do you dislike about the product?
no activity details tracking when there is a change in the task
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
asana helps project collaboration between planners and executors, with asana the brief can be more detailed and recorded with the planner.
We use Asana as a ticketing platform to log issues with our own software.
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a very powerful and easy-to-learn app that I use every day of the work week. Several features are very obvious and easy to implement. I've been impressed with some of the integrations that seem to be built-in to the platform, as I don't ever remember setting them up. They just work. It also has several built-in ways to view your data, including a Kanban board, list view, timeline, etc. You can turn them on or off, and set the one view that you want to use as a default. It allows you to switch between the views to see your data in different ways, depending on what you're trying to accomplish.
The support system has worked well for me and I have received answers to my questions within 1 day.

What do you dislike about the product?
It lacks a couple of obvious features that would add much more power to the platform. It also is not completely clear how to accomplish certain tasks within the platform. But the Support system is quite responsive with real-person responses through email.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We can easily log and track tickets in several ways, e.g., tags, titles, dates, boards, etc. It's very easy to look up a ticket to see where it is in the workflow. If a ticket has been resolved, the automation of clicking a checkmark and having it automatically moved to the Completed board is great. Several features in Asana make it easy to add additional information about a ticket, such as screenshots of what the logged issue is causing.
Asana provides a good balance of features for teams, individuals, and large organizations.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of use and flow of the application. It's easy to see how projects are tied to each other which is beneficial, especially in big teams.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes I wish the notification system was a bit "lighter", that is, being a bit simpler for large teams.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Resourcing, mainly - easy to see who has bandwidth and who does not.
Like it, but could be better
What do you like best about the product?
It's a useful tool to help get everything in one spot.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't love that you can create a Portfolio of Projects, but every Project still shows up on the left-hand toolbar. I'd LOVE to be able to hide the Projects that are within the Portfolio, since the Portfolio already shows up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's working towards cutting down on emails for projects and allowing everyone to have the same view of where the project is.
