Asana Reviews

We use the solution for tasks and other things like getting requests resolved.

The only thing I love about the product is that it is beautiful. The application itself is fine. I love the widgets, colors and everything. The user interface is just fine.

The user interface is so busy. It took me quite some time to understand how to navigate my way around the product. The application itself is busy. There’s so much information on it. When we log in to Asana, we have so many icons, and it is difficult to understand how to find things. The user interface is not easily accessible. The product must reduce the information on the interface. The solution has more color and fewer applications.

I have been using the solution for eight months.

I rate the solution’s stability a five out of ten.

I rate the product’s scalability a five out of ten.

I had to contact support because the application is always busy. When we assign a request, it takes time to get feedback. It takes time even to get information about the request we raised because there are so many applications and so many icons we have to click.

If customers buy the product for their company, they will need a lot of training to understand how it works. The product needs to improve this.

I'm willing to work. However, if I don't get my requests, it means there's nothing I'm doing. The solution is suited for companies with less number of employees. For bigger companies that have around 50 employees, it won’t work because we will have to create many teams, and everything is on that interface. 

We will have to understand how to navigate. The product is suitable for someone who is used to applications and can easily understand how the features work. The product is difficult for customer support or salespeople who are not into programming. Overall, I rate the product a five out of ten.

Asana has the most effective project and task management tools from my experience. 

It tracks every workflow to ensure there is a smooth implementation process. 

It gives my team the work plan at a suitable cost and time for managing various set projects. 

In addition, it allows my team to share documents with my colleagues and record video clips on any ongoing project. Asana has established the best working criteria that identify critical projects and tasks and give them first priority. 

Collaboration and joint project implementation enable each party to access the full documentation and provide unbiased opinions.

Project managers can easily manage projects from a unified system at reduced costs and time-saving. The general UI shows progress and data analytics for all projects in progress. It also displays task lists, and calendar views with the aim of simplifying the job of monitoring and assessment team. 

The platform has an automated database that saves customers' data with a tag of the assigned project to enhance faster follow-up. The addition of other related backup tools like screenshots and documents is easy. 

The Asana team is very innovative, and their updates have matched most of the work done on daily basis.

The subtasks section enables employees in the organization to break and classify tasks for faster implementation and access. 

We were able to customize the application interface and set the drop-down menu to accommodate tasks and projects. 

Date and time tools ensure that tasks are completed on the set period before deadlines. All the features have the potential capabilities to perform their unique tasks, and we have been happy since we secured this software. The proofreading system ensures that we submit projects that are free from errors and rich in planned text.

Some updates are outdated, and their functionalities can affect the end outcomes. When a task is deleted before submission, it is not easier to locate it. The software just requires regular updates, and everything will be okay. I did not experience many performance challenges as we are able to implement projects and submit them to our clients on time. 

It is simple and more flexible to work with it from anywhere and achieve the set targets. I appreciate the vendor team for coming up with the basic solutions for handling any given task and project using Asana.

I've used the solution for two years.

There are few downtime cases.

The performance has been outstanding.

Customer support has been always available when we need them.

Positive

I have not used another project management software.

The setup process is simple.

The implementation took place through the vendor.

There has been positive ROI and increased business growth.

It is easy to set up and acquire the application.

I evaluated Wrike, however, I decided to settle on Asana.

The system is good and I have no complains.

Asana offers better communication within groups. I can create tasks and sub-tasks. Asana also gives me the option to delegate the tasks to my team, and it has helped us increase the productivity of our teams. My teams will get a notification on who is taking care of the tasks, and I can keep track of the tasks that are already finished. A level of urgency can be placed on each task so that my team can work faster, and they can work efficiently. 

Asana is an incredible help as it gives me the option to customize and compose each of my companies, and it lets me do it most efficiently. I immediately see amazing results in my tasks since the product’s framework has allowed combination and correspondence. This software can generate more efficient teamwork in my team. 

This product is versatile for an organization. It has elements that can be useful for my team and me, as it has capabilities that will suit our needs.

By using this software, I have adaptability in my work, and it can improve the production of our company.

The software also promotes a healthy back office management system that will benefit everyone in the company.

Marking projects/events complete as they happen is valuable. The fun animation makes every completed task feel like a win, and it makes using the tool more fun. Very helpful when doing something that is normally tedious.

With regard to project management, the ability for us to track our projects all in one place is very helpful. Transparency makes it easy for everyone to be on the same page.

• The inbox feature can be a little overwhelming if you are working with Asana just from its project boards and only checking it periodically. It would be great if it auto-cleared once a project/task is marked complete.
• Email notifications can get excessive. You have complete control over them but initially, they can be annoying until you set the frequency you want them. It would be better if this was set during the sign-up process.
• Notes, discussions, and attachments in subtasks sometimes go unnoticed if working from the main project board.

I have been using Asana for more than one year.

I did not use another solution prior to this one.

The initial setup of Asana is quite simple.

We deployed using our internal team.

• More work gets done by keeping everyone on task and giving management visibility on progress.
• Asana makes it simple to get people organized and on task for projects.
• Fewer meetings are required using Asana saving both time and money for the company.

The price of this solution makes it quite accessible, and the plans fit my budget.

No other options were evaluated before choosing Asana.

If you are working with a cross-functional team with multiple projects on the go regularly, Asana is a lifesaver. Everything can be shared in one place. Delegation is a breeze. Communication happens in real-time. 

This product is well suited for teams where different folks are collaborating on assignments and there needs to be a clear outline as to who is working on what. It helps set very transparent expectations for progress and follow up. It may not be necessary for non-collaborative environments.

We are using this solution for project management and it is working great.

Asana has efficient and powerful features. I really like the way it works, keeping all of our projects on track. 

It is a well-suited platform for our organization that is providing effective services.

I love the way it monitors all of the current and past projects, and it sends notifications to keep everything on the track.

This solution has a learning curve, where it is initially difficult to use.

This is an effective project management tool.

While it was difficult to use in the beginning, it is now working great and giving wonderful results.

It is really an amazing product and I have nothing bad to say about this tool.

I like that it integrates with a lot of other software.

I shouldn't have to use InstaGANTT to get a good view of the projects. Also, it doesn't allow me to manage projects by hour. Finally, I want to look at sub-tasks on the top-level view.

I have used it for one year.

We have not encountered any deployment issues.

We have not encountered any stability issues.

We have not encountered any scalability issues.

I use Asana daily to keep track of projects and tasks for myself and my team. Simple dashboard provides information at a glance - very helpful for keeping things moving in daily standing meetings.

Centralized project and task tracking keeps our teams accountable without progress and updates being lost in email or conversation.

If Gantt charts were implemented, this would be a near perfect project management solution.

5 years

Make sure to have your team download the app - great way to make sure things are updated on the go.

The structure of organizing tasks is ideal for me.  I've used a variety of project management tools like Basecamp and they aren't nearly as intuitive.

One page of glass for the entire marketing team to get all the information they need, even if they didn't attend any of the meetings.  Great for historical archiving as well as new tasks.

I haven't reached the point where I've maximized the functionality or was looking for something that wasn't there. I recently started using the API with Slack, but haven't seen any issues so far.

You can add pics and share them like any other remark or note.

Since we embedded  this product in our work flow allowed us to cut tasks just from the characterization process to the immediate scopes.

They should take more steps forward in all modules that relate to employees management. They have all the information so they should offer more advanced data mining tools, and even some simple tools such as task timer etc.

We had no deployment issues.

There have been no issues with the stability.

We have had no issues scaling this for our needs.

They always keep the feel of being in a Beta version, and every new feature requires money. 

Don't lose touch with your old methods, because this find product hasn't yet defined itself, so you can't count and adapt it completely. I would wait until the interface and the services bank will fulfill their potential.
