As an advertising, marketing, tech dev agency and publisher, we have multiple departments, teams, and a diverse client and project list. Asana helps to organize all employees, track task time, and keep projects aligned. We love the integrations to support the platforms we already use. Asana is intuitive and easy to use.

We haven't needed to utilize customer support often, but when we do, it is excellent.

Asana Review #25
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has truly transformed the way our team collaborates and manages projects. Its intuitive interface makes it easy to organize tasks, set deadlines, and track progress — all in one place. The flexibility to create different views (list, board, timeline, calendar) ensures that everyone can work in the way that suits them best.
One of my favorite features is the seamless integration with other tools we use daily (Google Drive, Slack, Zoom, and more), which reduces friction and keeps everything connected. The ability to assign tasks and add comments directly on them minimizes email back-and-forth and fosters real-time collaboration.
The reporting and goal-tracking features have also been invaluable for giving us visibility into team performance and helping us stay aligned with our objectives.
Overall, Asana is an essential tool for any team that wants to stay organized, increase accountability, and boost productivity. Highly recommended!

What do you dislike about the product?
While Asana is a powerful and flexible tool, there are a few areas where it could improve. First, for new users or less tech-savvy team members, the learning curve can feel a bit steep — especially when trying to navigate advanced features like custom fields, automation rules, and reporting dashboards. Some onboarding guidance or more built-in tips would be helpful.
Second, as projects scale and more tasks are added, Asana can feel a bit overwhelming without careful organization. It would be great if there were stronger built-in features for managing cross-project dependencies and preventing duplicate work across multiple teams.
Lastly, some key features (like advanced reporting and workflow automation) are gated behind higher-tier plans, which can make it harder for smaller teams or startups on a budget to take full advantage of the platform.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Before using Asana, our team struggled with scattered communication, unclear responsibilities, and project timelines slipping through the cracks. Tasks were getting lost in long email threads or buried in chat apps, and we had little visibility into overall progress.
Asana solves these problems by giving us one centralized place to manage all our work — from daily tasks to large cross-functional projects. Now, everyone knows:
What needs to be done
Who is responsible for each task
When it’s due
How each piece fits into the bigger picture
The benefits have been tangible:
✅ Better accountability — since task ownership and deadlines are clear
✅ Improved team alignment — everyone can see project timelines and dependencies
✅ More efficient communication — discussions are tied to specific tasks
✅ Less stress and more focus — priorities are clear and work is organized
Overall, Asana has made our workflows more transparent, organized, and productive. It’s helped us hit deadlines more consistently and reduced the chaos of managing complex projects — which ultimately means we deliver better results with less stress.

A great program to help streamline complex processes!
What do you like best about the product?
Asana has helped our team keep track of many different projects and tasks. I am a fan of the form feature - which helps us provide support to outside organizations. Additionally, we have a yearly audit to complete. Asana helps us lay out all of the tasks in a clear way as well as provide us with a timeline of events and who is responsible for each task. The rules made it easy for us to focus on our tasks, rather than having to do manual work.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are not many features that I dislike. I will say, it does take some time to set up our projects because of the automation tools that need to be configured beforehand. This is a downside in the beginning, but it streamlines the process afterwards!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Support inboxes and internal audits.
Powerful & User-Friendly Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Asana is a powerful and very user-friendly project management tool. Our team is staying organized, on track, and learning to manage their work efficiently. The interface is clutter-free, leading to intuitive task management and flexible project views. This is great for our larger organization and smaller project teams. Our team uses this daily, and we can't speak highly enough of the implementation and support we have received along the way. I love the integration with the tools we are already using, helping to keep everything organized in one place.
What do you dislike about the product?
As there are so many capabilities within Asana, it can be a little overwhelming at first, and I highly recommend the webinars to help familiarize and make sure you're making the best use of the system!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana helps with knowing who is doing what and the timeframe for completion. This helps multiple projects stay on task. We also take advantage of the cross-department collaboration, ensuring shared projects are tracked.
Asana is leveling up our team's organization and communication
What do you like best about the product?
It has given us a way better system of organizing tasks and communicating feedback and progress
What do you dislike about the product?
It does take a bit of time to figure out how to best use it
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Our marketing calendar, goal setting, content planning etc was all over the place before. It is streamlining the organization and communcation for us.
Easy to use with great UI/UX
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the user interface of Asana, including interlinking documents, sheets and drives.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are features that are confusing in the software like adding multiple stages in the task and duplicating tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Asana solves the problem of managing tasks on a daily basis and collaborating with other teams for work.
Asana really helps me see everything and stop feeling so overwhelmed
What do you like best about the product?
What I really like about Asana is how clearly it lays out tasks and projects. You can instantly see who owns what, when it's due, and all the relevant details like attachments and conversations in one place. The project views, especially the Board and Timeline views, are super helpful for visualizing progress and potential roadblocks – it's way easier to see the big picture than digging through emails. For example, seeing a project laid out on a timeline helps us spot dependencies and potential delays early on, which is invaluable. It just brings a lot of clarity and organization to complex workflows.
What do you dislike about the product?
One thing I sometimes struggle with is how much there is to learn when you first start using it. It has so many features and ways to set things up that it can feel a bit overwhelming initially. It definitely takes some time and effort to figure out the best structure for your team's specific needs.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem Asana solves for us is getting rid of the chaos of tracking work across different platforms. Before Asana, it felt like tasks and updates were scattered everywhere – buried in email threads, lost in chat messages, scribbled on sticky notes. Now, everything is centralized in one place, giving us a single source of truth for every project and task. This means we spend way less time trying to figure out what needs doing or hunting down information. It brings much-needed transparency and accountability, making sure nothing falls through the cracks and everyone knows exactly what's expected.
Great project management tool overall
What do you like best about the product?
I like the ease of use for project management, the UI layout is good too and also the automation features are awesome.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's hard to cancel, change users or team count and I had past clients complain about this a lot.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us keep all of our tasks together in one place for bigger projects. It helps me keep my personal to-do list tidy and my assistant can check in and see exactly what's being done or not.
Getting started was easier than anticipated
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use is a big one. Once you spend a little time in there you'll find yourself relying on it for everything, even personal to-do lists. The Asana Academy is also extremely well thought out and supported with both learn at your own pace and live training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Lack of drag/drop of projects into portfolios would be helpful. Easy enough to work around, but could be even more intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Getting the team better aligned within an actual single source of truth
