Asana vs Planisware comparison

"It is stable and easy to set up."

"I would recommend Asana to others."

"This solution is easier and faster to use compared to Jira. It's not very structured and you can add sub-tasks and issues easily."

"The dashboards are really insightful and easy to use."

"The initial setup was straightforward."

"It’s a great way to communicate plans and progress across the business and is flexible about how much detail I include and how I present it."

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

"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."

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

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

"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."

"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."

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

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

"We tried, but we haven't been successful with it. If people don't have the training, it is not easy to use. You need to make sure that the people are trained to use the system. They can provide more resources in the form of webcasts and videos that people can use to train themselves and understand how to use it."

"It's hard to integrate Asana into other parts of the company workflow, so integration is an area for improvement."

"The product must reduce the information on the interface."

"The product's page is not user-friendly."

"You need to have an action plan, otherwise, it won't be as effective."

"The documentation for integration could be improved. We require more information to facilitate the integrations."

"The documentation could be enhanced by incorporating more visually informative videos that demonstrate how to accomplish specific tasks. While Asana's community support is valuable for answering questions, finding precise answers often requires sifting through multiple posts. Having concise and explanatory videos would greatly improve the user experience. When searching on platforms like Google, there are many individuals sharing their approaches to using Asana. However, the information provided is often not directly applicable to one's specific needs. Therefore, it would be advantageous to have comprehensive video tutorials that address common user queries. This would provide a more efficient and intuitive way of accessing information, especially when it comes to learning how to navigate and utilize Asana's features effectively."

"It would be beneficial if Asana had a predecessor feature that automatically adjusts all subsequent dates when changes are made to a timeline. For example, if I assign a designer four hours for one task and two days for another, and the completion of a task takes longer than anticipated, it would be convenient if updating one date could prompt the adjustment of all other relevant dates. Essentially, this feature would streamline the process and eliminate the need for manual adjustments."

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

"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."

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

"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."

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

"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."

"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."

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

"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."

"There is a free version of Asana, but we use the paid version to receive all the features we want. The overall price is reasonable."

"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."

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

"The solution's free version can be used for basic functions."

"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."

"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."

"There are training and certification costs."

"It comes with a high cost."

"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."
