Marketing Communications Manager ### "Intuitive Asana That Boosts Our Small Team’s Productivity" November 11, 2026 5.0 It is helping us to stay organised as a busy team who work across multiple locations Pros I just started using Asana and I think it will be a game changer for productivity and organisation in my small team. The UI is very intuitive and after attending the getting started live training I feel confident to get started setting up tasks. I like the fact it integrates with Google Drive so previous SOPs and systems are not lost, but can be integrated into the prject management software. Overall I'm please with it Cons Nothing so far however I am only using the free version because the paid version is a little costly for our small team at this stage Review Source Milca T. Administrative Support Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Beginner-Friendly and Easy to Navigate, with Helpful AI and Calendar Integration" November 10, 2026 4.5 I am new to using PMT. I used to work in the corporate world, and in my experience, keeping everyone updated on each task and discussing collaboration on a project usually meant scheduling a meeting every time you needed a progress update. Now, when you’re working on a project, you can meet everyone for an initial discussion and then move everything into Asana—assigning tasks, setting due dates, and updating progress there. Meetings take so much time at work, and Asana really helps. Pros As a beginner, using AI work with dash is a big help especially if i need to summarize my projects and where should i be focused on. I can easily navigate each settings, i can also integrate my deadlines in my calendar. I don't have any problem in the performance of asana even if i am working with other apps. Once I have work, I will definitely subscribe in the paid plan as it will be more helpful for me to create big task projects. For now, I don't have any problem and during my training in asana. Cons As a beginner, I can't say much. For now, I am happy with asana. Review Source Jeff R. Owner ### "Flexible Kanban Tracking, with Gantt Capabilities to Explore" November 10, 2026 4.5 I use Asana to track multiple projects at once, including time, tasks, their status, project phases, and milestones with the Kanban chart. When many projects and tasks are going on, email, face-to-face conversations, and calendars make them difficult to track, so Asana also helps with stakeholder sharing and communication. Pros I like that Asana is flexible and lets me add a lot of detail or just the necessities. I get project visibility and ownership, and can delegate tasks. The Kanban chart helps me track multiple projects, individual task statuses, project phases, and milestones, and Asana also tracks our time and supports stakeholder sharing and communication. The initial setup was fairly easy. Cons I haven’t dug into Asana’s Gantt chart capabilities yet, but it would be great if they could mimic something close to Microsoft Project for project and task alignment. Review Source Ravi P. Software Engineer ### "Asana Streamlines Workflows with a User-Friendly, High-Value Experience" November 9, 2026 4.5 Asana helps solve the challenges of managing multiple tasks, organizing projects, and tracking work progress. It keeps all project-related activities in one place, making it easier to assign tasks, set deadlines, monitor progress, and collaborate with team members. It reduces communication gaps, avoids missing important tasks, and improves overall productivity. It also helps me stay organized and complete work more efficiently. Pros The software provides a user-friendly interface that makes daily tasks easier and more efficient. I particularly like its features, smooth navigation, and overall performance. The integration capabilities help streamline workflows and reduce manual effort. It offers good value for money considering the features available. The onboarding experience is straightforward, and the available support is helpful. Its intelligent features also add value by simplifying tasks and improving productivity. Overall, it is a useful solution for improving workflow efficiency. Cons Sometimes Asana can feel a little complicated for new users, especially when managing multiple projects and tasks. Some advanced features take time to understand, and certain useful options are available only in higher-priced plans. Notifications can also become overwhelming when working on multiple projects. Improving customization and simplifying some workflows would make the overall experience even better. Review Source Sahar S. Senior Digital Marketing Account Manager Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Senior Digital Marketing Account Manager" November 6, 2026 5.0 Project management, launching client websites and campaigns make the whole process smooth and trackable Pros The ease of everything and how to work across multiple teams in multiple countries. Monday.com could never!!! Cons If I'm not added to a team or task I can't view it and that hurt productivity to hunt down who can help. Review Source Customer Onboarding Specialist Used the software for: Less than 1 year ### "Flexible Templates, Automations, and AI That Cut Manual Work" November 5, 2026 5.0 It functions amazingly as an easily prioritized to do list. if set up well it gives you all the context you need to complete your work as well as giving a single central place for communication about that work so its easy to come back to. I also love that the reporting functionality meant just ticking off the task causes everyone who needs to know the work is done knows, I don't need to remember to update anyone. Pros The flexibility and how much manual work it cuts out. Using project templates for repeatable work to make sure you get reliable reporting is huge, and it ensures everyone is given all the information every time with little room for human error. Using a combo of native automations, AI and scripting makes the platform even more flexible and allows you to build things that may not be possible out of the box. It is fairly easy to navigate and learn to use, with the exception of a few naming discrepancies - for example in a reference field Tables are referred to as records, things like that can be confusing. The integrations with email & Claude are particularly valuable, letting Claude have visibility on tasks in asana gives it vital context and the ability to automate repeatable or mass emails is so useful. Cons When new features come out a lot of the time they are great but seem to always fall short of being complete game changers, where they absolutely could be. A few examples are, with tables release we got lookup fields and the ability to use table options in a reference field which is great, however for this to be truly valuable the need to be able to be used like single select fields when it comes to reporting and use in forms. Also being able to add both to bundles would be HUGE. Another example is the updated automations, having them able to go outside the project us wonderful but if we were also able to have a dynamic "this project" option rather than a specific project and be able to add them to bundles it would replace so many things we rely on scripts or annoying rules we have to build in at project and portfolio level with hidden fields to achieve something that should be simple (e.g. a task is ticked off so a value at the portfolio level changes). Also the template editor interface is very challenging, you should be able to sort, filter, group and search in that interface just like you can in a project, its absolutely terrible to interact with and forces you to build your entire template as a project then convert it.

Business Owner ### "Tasks Made Easy for Managing Team and Personal Workloads" November 5, 2026 5.0 Workflow, everyone now knows what to do each day Pros Tasks, so easy to manage my team's & my own workload Cons That tasks do not show up on a calendar view until you complete the current task Review Source Greg R. Director of Sales Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "A good organizational task manager" November 5, 2026 4.0 In my organization, we used Asana to help us track monthly tasks that were due in reporting for various different KPI's. I also used it to personally track my tasks. I found that it was a little tricky to go back-and-forth between the two having my personal tasks and the organizational tasks. It didn't seem like there was an easy view to have both of those in the same place. Pros Asana is a pretty good task manager and it enables cross team collaboration really strongly. Organizing a team to execute on tasks together is helpful. Cons I don't like Asana's layout. I found that for me it was hard to keep track of my tasks and at least for my way of working, the visual cues were not helpful. Review Source Product Marketing Used the software for: 1-3 years ### "Best UI of any project management tool" November 4, 2026 5.0 Ease of use is incredible, it's very simple to onboard and use, and my leadership loves following everything through the reports and dashbaords Pros Asana has some of the best UI for a project management solutions. It's extremely easy to stay organized, set up and track projects, and know what needs action. Finally, the reporting and dashboards are incredible. Cons Some custom integrations can be tricky to setup, but besides that it's one of my favorite project management tools. Switched from [Hive](https://www.capterra.com/p/150991/Hive/) Hive felt more 'marketing-focused' to us, while Asana felt more encompassing for the whole business.

Makes it easier for me to assign tasks to people that work remotely Pros I love that I can assign tasks to other people on my team. It improves all of our productivity because it's easy to use. Cons There's nothing specific that I don't like about Asana. There could be a few more features on there.

We use it for project management, task tracking, coordination, and increasingly for designing and improving internal processes. What I value most is the combination of simplicity for everyday task management and the depth available for more complex project structures. A simple task can be created in seconds, while larger projects can be structured with dependencies, custom fields, rules, forms, timelines, and different project views. Asana has also changed the way I think about project management. Instead of simply tracking tasks, I increasingly use it to think about processes, responsibilities, information flows, and automation. There is certainly a learning curve, particularly for administrators and teams that want to use Asana beyond basic task management. However, I believe the additional possibilities are worth the effort. For teams that are willing to invest some time in designing their workflows properly, Asana can significantly improve transparency, organization, and productivity. Pros Asana gives our team a clear and structured way to manage projects, tasks, responsibilities, and deadlines. I particularly like the flexibility of the platform. Custom fields, rules, project views, forms, dependencies, and different ways of visualizing work allow us to adapt Asana to different processes instead of having to work around rigid structures. Another major strength is transparency. It is much easier to see who is responsible for a task, what needs to be done next, and where a project currently stands. This has helped us reduce information scattered across emails, meetings, and spreadsheets. I also appreciate how Asana supports process improvement and automation. Once a workflow is properly designed, many recurring steps can be standardized and automated. This makes Asana more than just a task management tool for us — it has become an important part of our project and process management. Cons The flexibility of Asana can also make it challenging. With many features and configuration options available, it takes some time to understand how everything fits together and how to build a well-structured system. Some features and permissions can also be difficult to understand at first, especially in larger organizations with different user roles and license levels. In addition, there are situations where I would like even more flexibility when configuring workflows and automations. For new users, I would therefore recommend providing some initial guidance and establishing clear conventions for how projects, tasks, custom fields, and workflows should be used.
