Asana vs Planisware comparison

"The way it handles the task is good. The whole team needs to organize all our tasks using Asana. It helps to clarify and allows us to prioritize tasks effectively."

"Asana provides a lot of options and a lot of customization to give the best efficient way for your business to operate. For example, I can customize my tasks, tables, and pipelines the way I want them to fit my business model. It's easy and highly customizable."

"The general UI shows progress and data analytics for all projects in progress."

"I would recommend Asana to others."

"Asana has a wonderful user experience that is very easy to interact with and has tons of integrations with other products and tools."

"The ability to build subtasks and break things down off of our major tasks has been very valuable. It is very stable and extremely scalable. The initial setup is very simple."

"It is very good for managing the timeline. I'm a quality manager, and I have different testing projects running with different work breakdown structures. Asana makes it very easy to implement and monitor the plans. It is easy to move the tasks and complete them, break them down, and assign them to people."

"Asana is a very simple interface for project managers to figure out, providing all the functions they need."

"Planisware offers integration with multiple tools and provides a good level of customization."

"The solution is performance-oriented and easily customized accordingly to many areas, such as performance KPI."

"It stands out by automating the intricate mechanics of project execution, eliminating the need for highly technical individuals to manage and reconfigure models."

"We have a variety of different modules, but it is mainly used for costs, risks, and resources."

"The area that could benefit from improvement in this Planisware is the project management tool. I have previously used Project Server, which is a Microsoft solution, and I found it to be more user-friendly as it included a client solution. In contrast, with this solution, the only option available is the online version, making it difficult to create activities, milestones, and other necessary components. This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution."

"Planisware has introduced Agile concepts, making it capable of Agile management similar to Jira and other Agile tools."

"There are two things in particular that I enjoy. The first is the portfolio planning section. Another advantage is that it is highly customizable."

"Overall, our company has all disintegrated systems, and with Planisware, we are getting a very integrated view of my portfolio reporting, cost and load, and everything else."

"For large teams, scalability should be improved."

"We have not used Asana on our private server. We have been using the cloud solution. We need an on premise solution for government agencies."

"Their workflows and automation could use a big improvement. I don't even know if they have anything in that regard right now. I would really love to see a way where you can send custom alerts based on a task's completion or status change or an approval coming through. I would love to see a way to get some low-code functionality into Asana because right now, that is a big miss."

"It would be beneficial to have a native option for Asana to create tickets so we could move away from our main ticketing tool."

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

"The stability of Asana is good. However, there are some issues with maintenance, when the solution is down. For example, there might be maintained for a few hours where we cannot use the solution."

"We don't get enough notifications."

"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."

"The learning curve is steep and there could be more avenues for opening up learning materials to a broader audience, enabling individuals to gain practical experience with the tool."

"I have experienced some issues, and that’s okay. It tends to be stable when the server's processing power and memory are adequate."

"The UI and UX of Planisware are not that advanced."

"More integration is needed with other kinds of products for better collaboration."

"The biggest con for Planisware is that if you are not a Planisware partner, you don't have access to their functions, making it difficult for beginners and new team members."

"Its stability should be improved. Its stability is the main issue, but we sometimes also have issues with calculations."

"They do not have anything that can assist customers with multi-year roadmap planning."

"The solution's user experience and user interface need improvement because they are not that great and intuitive."

"We paid a monthly licensing fee for the product."

"The cost is $25 US per unit per month."

"It has a free version."

"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."

"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."

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

"We're on the business tier, which is $25 a month if you're on an annual contract. It's $31 if you're on a month-to-month contract. In my experience, there are no hidden costs with Asana. I know Smartsheet has these add-ons that you can buy, which is an additional cost, but Asana doesn't have any add-ons that I know of. When you're trying to scale the product and want to add users, you have to do it in buckets of five. This is also something to consider."

"Its price is fair. Its licensing cost is cheaper than Microsoft Project. I would rate it a two out of five in terms of pricing."

"There are training and certification costs."

"The solution could be less expensive and the cost of scaling is expensive too."

"The solution is expensive and support is an extra cost. There are three license types to choose from, and we only pay for support and cloud services depending on our needs."

"It comes with a high cost."
