Efficient workflows and real-time updates boost productivity
What I appreciate about Asana is the easy way to get the data we need for the reports because we are moving all our tickets. We are making a copy from our main ticket system to Asana because our main ticket system is not giving us what we are looking for, so we need to process everything in Asana. We get the dashboard and analytical reports, so we can have a summary of what has been done in which department we are working with or helping. We can see how many requests for each department we are having. The easy way to get all the analytics at the end of the month or year is the most important feature, and that's why we are still with Asana. The benefits I see with Asana are the main tools because of the integration this tool has. For example, we are making tickets but receiving requests through email, and we have the integration with Outlook and Google. We have the add-ins, so we are making the ticket on our main system while replying to the mail, and simultaneously taking this mail to complete our ticket for our Asana project. The time we are investing through departments with Asana is valuable because we are receiving requests or updates for projects without investing time in meetings or writing emails. Because of the integration we have, we just create a project and everyone with specific tasks moves on their tasks, and we receive the updates. We created a bot that gives us updates automatically. Asana provides automation because we receive these updates the moment they happen without anyone needing to tell us they completed tasks or moved on to others. Asana's cloud deployment has been beneficial for our remote or hybrid team operations. If someone is onsite and someone is working from home, everyone can work on the same project through automation. The person from home doesn't need to be on an infinite call with management or coworkers. They can work in real time, and once someone completes a prerequisite task from home, the people onsite will know it and get the green flag to continue their assigned tasks. It has benefits for anyone, including personal uses.

Helpful tool for business process management integration and a straightforward setup
Oracle BPM is used as a tool integrated into another system. It helps in business process management and the generation of reports, predominantly at the end of the month For any new deployment of any system, it helps in improving some efficiencies, which is the reason for having the system. It…

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"What I like the most about Asana is its API integrations because we use a lot of cluttered toolsets in our company since we need to cater to different clients, for which its integration gives us a lot of flexibility."
"By using this software, I have adaptability in my work, and it can improve the production of our company."
"I find the interface of Asana easy to interact with."
"I love the way it monitors all of the current and past projects, and it sends notifications to keep everything on the track."
"What I like most about Asana is its simplicity. For example: we're not the only ones using it, and we onboard our customers to it, and normally, they have no questions."
"Asana has helped me (as an individual contributor) organize my daily work and given me a way to plan for longer term objectives."
"It is stable and easy to set up."
"The ability to share projects and tasks among team members appears to be the most valuable feature."
"It is easy and cheap."
"The processor management system is quite fast and scalable. We have 10 developers using this solution and it supports 25,000 users."
"The benefit from the tool is we can develop it quickly and easily use it for middleware services. We can publish the services so other applications can consume them. This is providing us some reusability and a type of security."
"It has developmental accelerators, which allow for virtually any customization needs which you may require."
"The support is good."
"The Workspace is a full, rich application where most users can find what they want. It shows them a list of their work."
"We have more than 800 distinct applications in our IT landscape. We had enough scalability and okay development cycles, and it has been enough to cover our backup operations and order management systems."
"It is quite scalable and can be applied to enterprise-level organizations effectively."
 

Cons

"Some updates are outdated, and their functionalities can affect the end outcomes."
"The documentation for integration could be improved. We require more information to facilitate the integrations."
"Having a quick way to do video inside the platform or video communication could be very handy."
"If you have been using a tool like Jira for many years, it make time some time to get used to the minimalist layout in Asana."
"The calendar view in Asana has shortcomings and can be improved."
"It would be great if Asana could create a library for each project within the interface."
"Some customizations and functions are still not available, however, so far, they haven't been a deal killer."
"Auto-shift is an essential feature for planning, but it's currently not there. It should have this feature so that when you move a task that depends on another task, the dates should be auto-shifted. For example, you have two tasks dependent on each other. When the parent task is moved or delayed, the child task should also be delayed, and the date should be shifted. When we have a very long timeline, it's very complex to go task by task and shift the dates on the task. Auto-shift is a fantastic and basic feature of project management, and having such a feature in Asana would make our lives much easier. If Asana added this feature, it would complete the suit and close the project management cycle because currently, there is a gap."
"You have to maintain it manually."
"Overall, the engine and the UI both have to be made lighter."
"Every time we roll out a new version of processes, we have to migrate to a new process. The process of this migration was not very smooth. We later decided that it would be easier for us to stop all processes, deploy a new version and then restart."
"From my knowledge of this solution, I don't see that the Oracle BPM includes features such as the growth of discovery and process mining."
"Oracle BPM could probably be improved with respect to the cost. When you are using this product, it'll be a bit costlier for the ROA. I think they should do some discounts on these products, especially for the licenses."
"Oracle BPM is hard to configure."
"The default Workspace does not meet all our needs and sometimes you need to create your own custom Workspace."
"The solution's licensing cost is very high."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The price of this solution makes it quite accessible, and the plans fit my budget."
"The price of the solution is reasonable."
"I can describe Asana's pricing as a sweet spot since it is neither very high nor very low, especially regarding the value Asana adds to its products...In our company, we use 50 percent of the features provided by Asana, because of which we only pay 50 percent of Asana's total cost."
"For what it brings to the table, I think Asana is fairly affordable. I would like to see the portfolio feature in our pricing plan, but other than that, it's definitely pretty good."
"The cost is $25 US per unit per month."
"This solution is reasonably priced."
"Asana has two different types of structures: company vs workspace. Company is really best if all the users you plan to assign work to are all internal (have the same corporate domain in their user ID email address). Once one person signs up (even for a free account) with a corporate email address, Asana will automatically relate that person to that company, if it already exists. If you plan to use it for external collaboration as well as internal, then creating a workspace is a better approach."
"The solution's free version can be used for basic functions."
"The pricing is very expensive."
"This solution is very expensive. You are charged per license and an additional 20% for support."
"The pricing is significantly high, particularly for Brazil where fluctuations in the exchange rate between the dollar and the real can further increase the cost of Oracle licenses."
"It's pried high, this solution is expensive."
"As with all Oracle products, the licensing over VMware is an issue."
"The licensing for this product is very costly. We pay for a yearly license to use Oracle BPM."
"I don't have information on the exact cost of Oracle BPM because a different team handles that, but it's pretty high. Oracle products are very costly. I would rate pricing for Oracle BPM three out of five. Though the pricing is high, the solution has a lot of features."
"The licensing model is good."
