Asana vs Aha!: Which is a better fit?

Ellenore K.: My name is Ellenore. I'm an administrative assistant at Equipter, which is a manufacturing company with about 70 employees, and I would give Asana five stars. Well, we are mostly an in-person company, but we have three separate buildings that people are working in. It's a fairly large campus, and people are working in many different departments, and we needed a way to bring everybody's work together so we could all see what we're working on, be able to assign things to other people, and mostly just keep everyone on the same page, because without some kind of system like this, it's chaos. I think the biggest thing that I appreciate about Asana is the visibility that it gives me for other teams and for my team. I think without this, it's just me running around to people's desks, asking questions in different buildings, making sure that we're all understanding things. With Asana, it means that I sort of have eyes on what everyone is doing and can keep track of how I need to fit into that. We have had some limited issues with our dependencies on recurring tasks. We have a fairly substantial, a large task that happens about once a week, and for a while we had dependencies set up so that we couldn't move ahead too quickly in the process before the earlier tasks were done. After a couple of months of that working with one of the more recent updates, we lost the ability to do that. That's a little unfortunate. It's not a huge deal because the people who were involved know what has to happen first, but that was a nice feature that we liked that hasn't been working so well for us recently.

Emily: Hi, this is Emily. I'm a strategic growth manager and I give Aha! a four out of five. For more reviews like this, click below. Before we started using Aha! we were mostly using Jira, which worked really well for our engineering team, but in order to have more visibility across different parts of our company, we decided to implement Aha! so that more people could have access and have better visibility and tend to what was going on. We chose Aha! for a variety of different reasons. Number one, it had incredible functionality. It had really great customer support for whenever we had issues or questions on how to use certain features. It was a really, really good value for what we were paying for it. And it was fairly intuitive and easy to use. It was really easy to get started with Aha! It was fairly intuitive and I mostly went in and tried to set up different roadmaps and things before bringing on the rest of the team, but everyone was able to get up and running pretty quickly. I highly recommend anyone considering Aha! make the transition. Our team has been much more streamlined ever since we made the move. So, comes highly recommended.
