### "Great value, but methodology conflicts."

September 14, 2020

5.0

We really enjoyed it, but Basecamp's methodology just fit OUR business best. I'd imagine we are in the minority here, but that's just my opinion. Both are great, affordable options for new business owners, and established ones as well.

Pros

This is great for teams who want more detail than Trello with more intuitive task/project templates. It has a very robust free option and a reasonable upgrade pricing than can scale with each business. You can use traditional project task lists and Gantt/Agile boards in conjunction. This makes it more robust than Trello.

Cons

I don't typically say this as an "early adopter", but there were actually too many features. We got lost in all of what the product offered and ended up going with Basecamp which has a much more easy to digest onboarding process. Perhaps that is a personal anecdote and not the "norm", but that was our experience.

Reason for choosing Asana

More robust than just task lists, and better team management and task assignment with the free version than Todoist offered.

### "Great for Task management"

December 1, 2023

5.0

Pros

Asana has a simple, easy to use interface, allows you to track tasks and create notes to other team members. I originally started using it to store ideas and as a CRM for leads

Cons

it seems rather limited when you compare is to other apps like ClickUp and Monday. I still use it daily, but it is not my primary task management tool.

### "Asana is a pretty big deal"

March 1, 2019

5.0

Pros

This is a very robust software- even with the free version. Just about every big online business I know uses some version of Asana because it works great for teams and project communication. I personally don't have a team so I'm able to use the free version without issues. What I really like about Asana is that you can create tasks by 'Projects'. So, instead of just making a random list of things you need to do and scheduling them with due dates, you can create projects filled with tasks necessary to complete those projects. Then, you can reuse those projects over and over as needed. For example, I have a project board for 'Webinars', 'Blog posts', and 'Outreach'. Within each I have the entire process for each of those projects broken down into tasks. now, I can schedule these tasks if I want. I can even set them to cycle weekly or monthly in a calendar view and send reminders via mobile push or email. There are so many options.

Cons

I don't like that the calendar view of cycled tasks won't show future scheduled tasks until I complete the current week's task. So, once I check a task as complete, it will then populate at the next scheduled time. Before that, it won't show up at all in the future. This keeps me from being able to look at next month's (or even next week's) tasks to see what my schedule will hold. Seems like an unnecessary limitation.

### "Fit For Everyone!! An Effective Project Management Tool"

November 15, 2018

4.0

In my Company, Asana serves as the link between departments. Every project is managed using this tool, and since we use it to manage our daily workflow, it is effortless to follow up on Ongoing Projects and communicate the progress each stakeholder is making. Asana is adding value to the business, for sure!

Pros

Asana is a fantastic Task Organizer and it is definitely fit for everyone! Whether you have a 5000+ employee company or you work as a freelancer, Asana is the tool for you! It allows you to organize your tasks, prioritize them, follow up on their progress and more! Also, it's Project Management features are not only professional grade, but very easy to use. Not everyone knows how to use PM Softwares and Asana makes Gantt Charts, Communication between groups and Task Precedences as easy as you would like them to be! Amazing tool, very helpful! And the Premium upgrade is 100% worth it!

Cons

Sometimes its hard to separate subtasks from main tasks in the view modes they offer. However, you can use tags to go around this issues with zero effort.

### "Superb feature packed project management tool "

October 12, 2021

5.0

Pros

Asana is a great tool for managing projects, tracking progress and assigning tasks. It has a few different views (list, board and calendar) which is helpful for seeing what's on your plate and planning projects or campaigns spanning multiple days, weeks or months. When everyone on the team is using it, far fewer to-dos fall through the cracks, less deadlines are missed and people are aware of what they have to do and what's coming up next. If you're managing a project, you can break it down into subtasks, assign them, set due dates and track the progress. Asana tasks support custom fields so you can tailor them to many types of projects from marketing campaigns to video production.

Cons

Asana's paid plans charge per user so costs can be high depending on how big your team is. When setting deadlines, it would be helpful to easily see how many tasks the assignee has due around that time so you can adjust accordingly. Even though I understand why Asana only lets you set one assignee per task (though it can have multiple collaborators), some tasks are joint efforts and there can be issues with perceived responsibility and credit when there's only one assignee.

### "An Asana Love Letter"

November 10, 2016

5.0

I LOVE Asana! It is one of my favorite apps on my phone and helps me keep myself sane. I never worry about forgetting to do anything because I just put it on my Asana and then don't have to even think about it until I check my tasks. I first started using in several years ago as a way to keep track of tasks at in my job, and then transitioned it to using it with my team in the office. We were working on several large projects with a lot of moving parts and it helped us all keep our heads on straight. During really busy and stressful seasons at work, Asana was a crucial part of reducing stress as much as possible. I would frequently wake up in the middle of the night thinking about all the things I or my teammates had to do - but all I had to do was put it on my Asana and assign it to the appropriate teammates and I was able to fall back asleep. I recently began an intensive full-time 10-month master's program that is CRAZY in terms of schedule and workload. There are a lot of group projects and one of the first things I did was get my whole group on Asana to help us keep our heads on straight. It was working so well for my group that several other groups asked me to show them how it worked. I love the seamless transition between app and desktop, and all the features of Asana. The ability to set specific due date times and recurring tasks are some of my favorite features. The unicorns and narwhals are also a fun feature and make checking a task off my list just that much more rewarding. Thanks, Asana, for such a wonderful product and for continually seeking to improve the design and functionality of the site. I don't know where I would be without you!

Pros

The ease of use and specific customizable features for each task.

Cons

I love almost everything about it! The only feature I wish it had was the ability to create a calendar that is not attached to specific tasks, i.e. a calendar with large project deadlines.

### "A user-friendly and aesthetic project management tool"

August 12, 2021

5.0

Pros

Asana provides a good visual appeal and has a user-friendly navigation to create and update projects in the system. If you're just getting started with project management or have been doing it for a long time, Asana has great features to match your level of project management expertise.

Cons

If you like multiple layers of organization within your project management tool, Asana has the capability to do it, but it can be a bit more challenging to navigate or have visibility into. This is the one big drawback to Asana.

### "Project Management Software for Simple and Complex Solo/Team Projects!"

June 8, 2021

5.0

My week to week tasks are well organized and completed in a timely manner. As with any business, there are times when you are pulled in different directions for different things but Asana helps me stay organized and on top of everything that I need to do.

Pros

The thing I liked most about this software was being able to put specific deadlines, down to the hours and minutes. I was also able to categorize them and assign a priority level so I could prioritize tasks that were urgent versus not urgent. The free version has so much usability and I really appreciate the Asana team making this accessible to everyone, business or otherwise. I also liked the function where it allowed users to message the assigner for clarification.

Cons

I haven't had the opportunity to use all functions of this software so I cannot contribute much to its cons - so far, no complaints or issues.

### "Perfect for Professional & Personal life "

January 24, 2022

5.0

I’ve been using Asana for what feels like a decade and I appreciate how much the product has evolved and stayed relevant.

Pros

Very customizable and easy to use. The forms feature allows me to implement business process improvements very quickly vs. waiting for Salesforce administrators to help me.

Cons

I don’t love the UI. It feels too “fun” and a little noisy.

September 5, 2022

4.0

Asana made freedom of location and flexible hours possible for my team with simple, asynchronous collaboration.

Pros

The UX is simple enough that minimal training is required for new users. Also makes it easy to customize how each team uses the product—I use different features for different teams, depending on their needs.

Cons

A lot of email notifications by default, but easily turned off in the settings

The software is crucial especially in the virtual/remote working environment. Its definitely a great tool for project management and to ensure that deadlines are met.

### "There when I need it"

March 31, 2019

5.0

Asana is a great project management software if that's the problem you're looking to solve. It's ideal for a team, and even accommodates working with outside guests or contractors on a short-term basis. We've appreciated that it's a platform that more and more people are using and that it's always being improved with creative new ideas and functionality.

Pros

I appreciate the role of project management software, even though I don't use it all that much. When I need it, Asana is there for me. It's intuitive to use, the design is simple, and the functionality is powerful. For those who love to play in project management software, this is definitely the platform I recommend. It's a bonus that you can integrate so many other apps, and even email tasks to your to-do list. Plus the app is great for when you're on the go.

Cons

Some people don't appreciate that Asana gives them yet another inbox to stay on top of. And if it's not integrated into their workflow, they may be getting assignments and project updates on the platform but not remembering to check it. For collaborative projects, Asana is a group lift. Everyone has to be committed to using it to make it work. Some people do use it just to track their own tasks, which works up to a point, but it's really designed to use as a team. If you're willing to try it and invest the time, you may find it's a great solution for you. If you're a lone wolf, you may not experience the benefits.

### "Free "basic" option already packs a punch!"

December 27, 2018

5.0

We didn't have a project management solution outside of email before Asana, and it has really helped our team get organized and move away from excuses like "I didn't see that email."

Pros

Our team uses the basic option, which already delivers much of what small teams need for project management software: organizing projects (we do this using "teams"), assigning due dates, status updates, and a calendar view. We haven't found a need for any of the premium features, which seem to be more appropriate for larger organizations, but we're pleased at how robust Asana's basic option already is! As one for aesthetics, I appreciate the clean design that Asana brings to the table. Because of the clean design, the site loads fast, which is always a plus. Project management solutions can easily get overwhelming, but Asana's approach is the cleanest I've seen so far. The ability to attach media and document files to each task item has been useful for our multimedia team, as has the ability to break each task into sub-tasks -- again, something that could easily get overwhelming, but thanks to good design, isn't a big issue with Asana.

Cons

Email notifications can get overwhelming, but I've turned this off in my settings. There's an Inbox dashboard, which is more like a news feed, if you ever need to check on what's been updated.

### "Over 2 Years of Using Asana - And Counting"

November 4, 2016

5.0

To be completely honest, I can't extol the virtues of Asana enough. Asana has immeasureably improved so many facets of our organization. Chief among them: productivity, accountability, interdepartmental coordination, and communication. If you're going from no project management software to Asana, you are going to be absolutely delighted. I've recommended it to several colleagues in other organizations who had no project management tool, and they have all started using it and love it. I've also used other project management software in the past (Wrike, Teamwork, and a few others), and none of it compares to what Asana has to offer. There are a few kinks here and there that I've experienced over the years, but Asana's help section is loaded with helpful tutorials and information. And every time I have emailed Asana for help, I have gotten a prompt and thorough response.

Pros

I like just about every facet of Asana

Cons

The reporting functions could be more robust. The advanced search is amazing - if those searches could be exported as a CSV or converted into a report of some kind, that would be outstanding. There are tools that will do Asana reports, like Weekdone, but they're a little annoying. It would be much more convenient to have it within the platform itself. Time tracking within the platform could also be good. Harvest in particular is a truly awful time tracker. We use Toggl's integration (an extension in Chrome), but even that's not ideal since it's hard to determine how much time has been spent on any 1 task (or task and subtasks).

### "Ideal Project Management Tool"

January 3, 2021

5.0

I've been using Asana for close to 4 years now, and I'm still learning ways to integrate it into my day-to-day. The company I worked for prior to this one transitioned away from Asana to a significantly more convoluted software that was, in the end, more expensive and more complex without being more useful. Our company has effectively transitioned to using Asana for everything from project management to task and inventory management, human resources, knowledge base, and much more. I've even started using Asana in my personal life.

Pros

As a project management tool, Asana is the best software I've used. The versatility is extremely high, and the ability to customize specific rules to make the project boards do what you want (auto-assign, auto-add collaborators based on a specific parameter, etc.) has streamlined my day-to-day a great deal.

Cons

I would prefer it if the timeline view had more Gantt specific features, but being able to integrate seamlessly with Instagantt solves the problem. It would be nice if the features of Instagantt were part of Asana though so that we wouldn't have to transition back and forth between the two.

January 15, 2023

5.0

Asana también es fuerte en el razonamiento de la junta que realiza Spry. Cuenta con un glosario de términos que Asana caracteriza en sus propios términos para la tarea diestra de los ejecutivos. Involucrar a Asana para organizar tiradas y envíos de artículos es una elección extraordinaria.

Pros

Con Asana, puedes coordinarte con administraciones externas como Leeway y Zapier. Mantener toda su correspondencia en un solo lugar puede ayudar a suavizar la eficiencia, y su información en la aplicación marca la diferencia. Dado que Asana puede permitirte designar tiempos de corte y necesidades del proyecto para tu grupo, a menudo parece legítimo mantener todas las conversaciones en un solo lugar.

Cons

Con Asana, puede asignar una tarea a un colega. En el caso de que haya un segmento de una tarea que requiera más de una persona, deberá transmitirlo de otra manera.

It’s a great project tracking tool for both team and individuals. As a team it helps us to ensure that we are all on the same page. After started tracking my work progress using Asana, my efficiency got improved. Also, I used to share my task status with my manager which helps me show my productivity in a smart way.

Pros

In our organisation we use Asana to plan, manage and track projects. We do share our task updates with our reporting heads. I can also add my own tasks. Easy-to-use task management system.

Cons

The only issue I found was, unable to add multiple assignees for a task.

### "Great way to keep track of tasks - until they are complete"

January 6, 2020

4.0

Asana has made work productivity heavily increase because we have an organized timeline to keep track of all the tasks and who is in charge of each.

Pros

You can put everything here. All your tasks, projects, campaigns, EVERYTHING and assign them to team members. It is awesome to have all conversations relating to a certain project in one spot so you can easily refer back to feedback and changes/updates for that specific project. You can also go as deep and detailed as you want with each task/project and have subtasks on subtasks.

Cons

The only thing that I would say is a negative is that once a task is marked as complete it is extremely difficult to find and refer back to. Also, when you are assigned a task in a private project you are notified that you are assigned to complete the task but then you can't see the task because it is in a hidden project so that is little annoying.

### "Overwhelming if deployed for the wrong kind of project"

April 3, 2021

3.0

Pros

Asana, ideally, is a project management/collaboration tool offering lots of features to help efficiently run projects of all scale and scope in terms of workflow. The free version in itself offers enough to successfully navigate a small business/project. I would like to highlight here Asana's timeline view which proved to be invaluably helpful on several occasions. The task assignment/organization tools are equally helpful, and once one gets the hang of it, Asana becomes a truly versatile platform offering flexibility and a wide range options to maximize productivity and enhance smooth workflow.

Cons

Honestly, probably the reason why we felt massively overwhelmed by Asana is because it was introduced to help manage a large-scale international event. To-do lists became never-ending no matter how many one ticked off, despite checking the inbox ever so frequently one kept missing out on often very important changes and updates, comments became a jungle of information with bits of data spinning off in all directions, to the point where data/info went missing or irrelevant data got (back) in by mistake, task assignment was quite cumbersome if one wished to make sure everything appeared on every relevant level, to all those involved. In short, Asana provided a confusing experience only adding to the load, and becoming another massive "task" in its own right to be dealt with separately on a daily basis. Again, I believe happened because the volume of the event and the number of people involved were too big a bite both for the core team as well as for the freshly introduced management tool. My advice would be: start small, learn all the ways of the program, and then head on to tackle bigger projects. On a different note, although I understand that Asana has more features in terms of maximizing workflow efficiency, as a visual person, I am more comfortable using Trello, for instance, despite a slightly more moderate level of complexity and flexibility.
