Director of First Impressions and Facilities Manager Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Piece of mind though organization and automation." September 3, 2026 4.0 I love Asana, which is why I became an ambassador. I look forward to seeing what work I have to accomplish today, tomorrow, this week, what's up coming, and of course marking tasks complete! Pros I love the organization that it brought to my work! I manage a office building in a downtown setting and am the PM Lead for the entire foundation. Being able to keep track of tasks and keep up to date on maintenance, intake repair requests though forms, and using rules to send auto emails has greatly increased my productivity. It is intuitive and easy to manage my tasks and projects in one place. The training is well developed and very useful. The customer service has been very responsive to support tickets, and the community is a huge resource. The value for the money has been evident to me in the time and headaches I have saved or prevented. Cons I do wish that the "insert variables" were expanded and usable in more fields for more things. Sometimes I have to find workarounds because it doesn't do exactly what I want. Review Source BA Brian A. Director Veterinary Used the software for: 2+ years ### "What I Comprehend about Asana ^ Director in Veterinary 2026 Updated Perspective" September 11, 2026 4.0 Pros Asana makes it faster and seamless to manage, track and plan veterinary projects and tasks automatically with central boards. Cons I only face issues on weekend just in case I hit a snag since the vendor tech response team takes time unlike on weekdays. Switched from [Smartsheet](https://www.capterra.com/p/79104/Smartsheet/) I switched because Smartsheet required formulas such as Excel due to lack of native built-in which is available in Asana making it easy to collaborate. Review Source AH Allison H. Project Manager Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Do Not Buy" June 30, 2026 1.0 My experience has been awful. I transferred all but four projects off Asana after the last update because I'm so done with this software. I didn't want to transfer my four longest running projects because they are close to complete and it would have been quite tedious. I logged in yesterday morning and all my line item notes have vanished. Customer service is only via email and extremely slow. I'm now losing a week on my projects because there is a holiday and I've had to push all my meetings while I get my notes back. Pros Absolutely nothing. It's an animated excel sheet with extremely minimal functionality. Your money is better spent literally anywhere else. I like SmartSheet! Cons Everything. It's not user-friendly, any of the linking between notes pages and creating tasks is extraordinarily finicky and must be approached in the proper order of operations. The updates they make to the software just annoy me and do not improve functionality or ease of use. Review Source VR Verified Reviewer Founder Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Asana = PM Standard" July 25, 2026 4.0 Overall, I think that Asana is a really good productivity tool for us. My agency managed a team of 35 with multiple service departments out of Asana, and it made things really clean and easy to use. Their time tracking features, however, are kind of lacking, so we ended up using other tools in conjunction with that. Pros As far as project management software goes, Asana is a pretty good one. I think that it's relatively affordable, meaning that it has a lot of value. It's also very easy to use, and a lot of the basic features out of the box, such as automated tasks, recurring tasks, multiple project views, etc., are very helpful. I also really like the customized and saved views and filters, as in manager, to be able to track others' tasks and progress as well in an easy manner. Cons I think that sometimes it's easy to get confused within Asana. Also, I will say the search feature is not very good, so if you're looking for a task, it can be very difficult to find, especially if it's completed. The overall search feature not working well can mean you have to be very, very organized. Switched from [Teamwork.com](https://www.capterra.com/p/120390/Teamwork-Projects/) Teamwork was getting very expensive and was not meeting the team's needs. Overall usage was pretty low. Review Source JR Joseph R. Accounts Payable Associate Cosmetics Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Looking for a Robust PPM System? Contemplate my 7 Years Experience Outlined in a Filled Survey " September 24, 2026 5.0 Pros I incorporated Asana in 2019 from my previous organization as an IR Assistant. I like how in my current organization I am able to plan, track and manage tasks and projects in one dashboard. Cons Even though Asana lack some features such as video conferencing, it only take few clicks to integrate with external web conferencing apps. Switched from [Wrike](https://www.capterra.com/p/76113/Wrike/) The unavailability of instant messaging and chat feature on Wrike made me switch to Asana. Review Source AL Anthony L. Operations Supervisor Oil & Energy Used the software for: 2+ years ### "8+ Years of Asana Usage: Are You a Prospect? Contemplate my Insight ^ OS Supervisor " September 14, 2026 5.0 Pros I incorporated Asana in 2018 and it has been seamless to conduct business operations projects through real-time workflow automation and remote work. The availability of collaboration and instant messaging tools is another aspect that I like. Cons I have never encountered challenges when planning, tracking and managing tasks with Asana on my end. Switched from [Wrike](https://www.capterra.com/p/76113/Wrike/) Wrike was way too complex which forced us to cater more expenses on external UX Admins. Review Source PL Paula L. General Manager Management Consulting Used the software for: 2+ years ### "GM Asana Experience : Opinion Based on 5 Years Across 2 Orgs" September 27, 2026 4.0 Pros I like that Asana streamlines universal workload, native time tracking, task tracking and connect tasks and deadliness across projects via Gantt style. Cons The AI capability in Asana requires human intervention at the end since it doesn’t execute the projects on its own. Switched from [Notion](https://www.capterra.com/p/186596/Notion/) Notion is weaker on portfolio reporting and resource management. Review Source CK Chris K. Director Education Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Project Portfolio Manager that I have Used for 8+ Years: Consider My Experience if You’re in the Evaluation Stage" September 27, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Asana has been remarkable and positive for the past eight years when it comes to project portfolio management. Pros How it is seamless to set and track measurable company objectives through OKR is what I crown Asana for - the projects that ai have tied to company-wide KPIs let me track progress in real-time. Cons I am a daily user of Asana for over eight years now and I do not face downtime when tracking, planning and managing projects. Switched from [ClickUp](https://www.capterra.com/p/158833/ClickUp/) ClickUp even if it offers robust PPM tools, its UI is not sleek compared to Asana which makes it hectic to navigate features. Review Source AA Ayo A. Head of Communications and Community Action Religious Institutions Used the software for: 2+ years ### "HoC Asana Review Filled in 2026 - Experience Based on Communications Project Management in a Religious Institution " September 25, 2026 4.0 Through shared calendar allocated by Asana, it aligns every channel (social, website and email) around the same themes & dates. Pros The content calendar (board view) is what I like most about Asana because it allows me to plan sermons, event promos and newsletters in one visual calendar. Cons Apart from the lack of some vital built-in features such as video conferencing, I do not experience any other challenges. Switched from [Jira](https://www.capterra.com/p/19319/JIRA/) Jira incurs an additional admin fee since it requires DevOps integration which is a bit complex for non-IT users. Review Source MB Megan B. Sr. Human Resources Business Partner Logistics and Supply Chain Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Asana = A Must Have HR Project/Portfolio Management Program that I Use Daily" September 27, 2026 4.0 Pros Implementation of Asana was straightforward and didn’t involve external third-party service providers. I appreciate that I am able to successfully plan, track and manage projects automatically. Cons Because I have integrated Asana with external web conferencing systems that allow me to conduct video conferences without swapping apps, I don’t feel like there is any downside. Switched from [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) I switched because I wanted to explore more PPM tools - Trello have no issues, in fact they are the same. Review Source Nicola R. Business Owner Human Resources Used the software for: 2+ years ### "My Best Business Tool" May 23, 2026 5.0 To me, it is just so simple to use. I find it easy to set projects up, and tasks and I love the reminder emails so I don't miss anything. I love that my clients can message via this tool. Pros I love Asana and find it so easy to follow my VA clients' tasks on this system. It is a great tracking tool and allows us to message each other and pick up in a time that suits us. It means I don't lose sight of tasks and I get reminders daily. Cons I would like to see Asana develop its use of AI better and suggest ways to make work smoother. But other than that, this is by far my favourite tool to use. Switched from [Trello](https://www.capterra.com/p/211559/Trello/) Clients were already using this and so I needed to fit with their needs. Review Source Charlotte K. President Business Supplies and Equipment Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great Affordable PM Tool" July 27, 2026 5.0 I've been using Asana for around 5+ years as our main company PM software. I am the President of the Company and it gives me visibility into our teams workload and priorities. Pros Excellent, versatile PM software with multiple views, Claude integration, and great value for the price. Cons There isn't really anything in particular that comes to mind as a pain point with Asana - the new Claude integration has solved the ability to automate project creation with complex timelines. Alternatives considered [monday AI Work Platform](https://www.capterra.com/p/147657/monday-com/) Reason for choosing Asana We preferred the UX of Asana and just found it easier to use overall. Review Source Ankita P. Business Development Executive Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 6-12 months ### "Reliable and Easy-to-Use Project Management Tool" July 22, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Asana has been very positive. It has helped me keep projects organized, track tasks efficiently, and improve collaboration across the team. The interface is clean and easy to navigate, making it simple to assign tasks, set deadlines, and monitor progress. Features like project timelines, task dependencies, and integrations with other tools have made project management more efficient. Although there is a slight learning curve for some advanced features and certain capabilities require a paid plan, Asana has been a reliable platform that has helped improve productivity and keep work on schedule. Pros What I liked most about Asana was its intuitive interface and strong task management capabilities. It made it easy to organize projects, assign responsibilities, track progress, and collaborate with team members in one place. The timeline, automation, and integrations with other tools helped improve productivity and kept projects on schedule. Cons The learning curve was a bit steep when I first started using Asana, especially with its more advanced features. I also found that some useful capabilities, like advanced reporting and certain automation options, require a higher-tier plan. It can also generate a lot of notifications if you don't customize your settings. Review Source HA Hamza A. Video Editor and Motion Designer Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Wonderful Experience with Asana " August 25, 2026 5.0 Asana is a great tool that has transformed how we manage projects and collaborate .In daily work mostly I juggle across multiple projects and it make it easy to assign tasks ,track progress and keep everything organized in one place . Pros Asana has a simple interface that keep my creative workflow smooth and efficient.Working across multiple projects with producers ,clients and team members offer a big help as a collaboration tool and acts as single source of truth where we pull ideas,feedback ,resources and storyboard in one place that keep everyone aligned from starting point to end of a project.Also its deep integration with tools like Jira,Google Drive etc makes sharing ,tracking and managing projects even easier . Cons Asana is abit expensive for a personal /individual use because not all features are used unlike when working as a team would love to see a more flexible pricing options . Review Source LM Luke M. Development Associate Real Estate Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Staying Ahead of Development Tasks with Asana" September 4, 2026 5.0 Overall, I stay ahead of due diligence deadlines, follow up on outstanding approvals, coordinate external professionals, track development milestones, and avoid losing important action items in long email threads. Pros I particularly like using task assignments and deadlines to keep architects, consultants, internal teams, and other stakeholders aligned. When several properties are progressing at different stages, having one place to check outstanding work saves me a lot of time. Cons The biggest adjustment is getting everyone involved in a project to consistently update their tasks. When updates are missed, I still need to reach out directly to confirm where things stand. Review Source BK Bartosz K. Staff Engineer Computer Software Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Connecting Engineering Priorities with Real Progress" September 21, 2026 5.0 Overall, Asana has provided a smooth experience and supports my daily work effectively just enjoying it fully. Pros With multiple technical initiatives running at once, Asana helps me organise engineering priorities, break larger projects into manageable pieces, and keep dependencies visible. It is also useful for coordinating with product, design, and other engineering teams when a task cannot move forward without their input. Cons I have not experienced any major problems with Asana. It is reliable, easy to use, and keeps tasks, deadlines, and team responsibilities well organised. The platform feels flexible and straightforward, making it easy to manage different projects without unnecessary complications. Review Source Kevin J. Operations Project Coordinator Environmental Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Project coordination and management gets less chaotic with superior tools like Asana." June 30, 2026 5.0 Asana has been a true life savor and has helped me to effectively meet my duties as the operations project manager of our organization. We introduced Asana to allows us achieve better work management and team coordination during our operations and it has helped us to save a lot of time that we used to waste when we didn't have a reliable project planning and tracking tool. Having Asana has elevated our abilities to keep everyone in the organization on the same loop which allows us to have smooth progress of operations across all departments. I personally get to work with it more often than the others and my experience has been very fascinating. It makes it so easy to plan for operations and track the progress of each operation, allowing us to detect any delays in our operations before they affect the time we get our operations completed. Pros As an Operations Project Coordinator, Asana has been my favorite work management product and i work with it almost everyday to plan for our operations and to monitor their progress. I like how Asana has made it easy for me to work together and collaborate with teams from the other departments which help us to have our operations running smoothly across all stages. Asana also makes my projects reporting and documentation tasks very easy by providing very efficient analytics and reporting tools which offers well detailed information about our operations and their performance. I can't forget to mention the visualization features which makes it easy to virtually demonstrate our operations, allowing us to have real time overview of their progress and status. Planning for operations with Asana is very straightforward with great task organization and prioritization features which help formulate the way we will execute our operations in order to achieve the best possible outcomes. Cons Asana has been among the easiest to use tool i work with and am glad that i have never gotten into any troubles while using it. I like how organized its features are and how intuitive the interface is which makes it easy for interact with all the features. I genuinely have never found anything that i did not like about Asana. Review Source SR Sunshine R. Marketing Executive Information Technology and Services Used the software for: 2+ years ### "The Best Way For Making Marketing Workflows Easier" September 4, 2026 5.0 As a Marketing Executive in information, internet, and technology, I use Asana to coordinate campaigns, manage content schedules, organize product launches, and keep creative and technical teams aligned on deadlines. It gives me a practical way to move campaigns from planning to execution without losing track of small but important tasks. Pros I like being able to see campaign activities at a glance and assign specific actions to the right people. It makes collaboration easier when several campaigns are running at the same time. Cons When a campaign has many contributors, the number of tasks and updates can become difficult to follow, so keeping the workspace organized is important. Review Source EP Elena P. Digital Strategy Senior Specialist Non-Profit Organization Management Used the software for: 2+ years ### "A solid project management tool that keeps teams organized and accountable" September 15, 2026 5.0 Asana has been a solid project management tool that keeps teams organized and accountable. it shines for mid-sized projects with clear workflows, though it requires some setup discipline to avoid clutter as usage scales up. Pros Clean, intuitive interface makes task tracking easy. Multiple views, like list, board, timleine, calendar, fit different workflows. Great for breaking projects into subtasks and setting dependencies to keep teams aligned on priorities Cons can get overwhelming with too many projects/tasks running simultaneously. Reporting features are limited on lower-tier plans. Notifications sometimes feel excessive and hard to fine-tune without important updates Review Source KS Kristopher S. Emergent Bilingual Instructional Specialist Education Management Used the software for: 1-2 years ### "Lose the Sticky Notes - Asana's Got Your Back" April 22, 2026 5.0 Asana keeps me organized in an online space, something that is worth its weight in gold because my company is all about efficiency. Pros As a progress-based individual, a to-do list is a great way to keep me motivated. I can also be forgetful at times, and the to-do list on Asana is an easy way to remind me on a daily basis without filling my computer with sticky notes that would clutter my workspace. I like that I can receive notifications on a daily basis or easily check the app on my phone to see if I've forgotten about a time-sensitive task at any point in time. More often than not, I check my to-do list for the next day to know how to mentally prepare myself for my workload. My other favorite part of Asana is its collaborative functions. For example, a group project, a task you assign to someone else, or a project assigned by a manager can easily be tracked for completion. It keeps everyone involved up-to-date in an online workspace that can otherwise lack effective communication at times. Cons The most pertinent con to me in using Asana is if/when someone forgets to put a due-date on something. You might totally forget about this task because, although there's a button for "no due date" tasks, Asana does not direct you to check these \*just in case\* you need to check them. I suggest an occasional pop-up that says, "You have tasks with no due-date that you haven't looked at in a while!" It can get real complex real quick. Some of the functions I don't use because I don't understand them and I'm afraid I'll do it wrong. For example, I do not create projects for my team to collaborate on. However, if I learned it, I'm sure it would be quite useful. Being on the receiving-end of these projects, it's been pretty good, a 4/5 I'd say. Ultimately, it can still be like learning the quirks of a new computer in the sense that you have to know where to look to find your project and shared tasks that might not automatically pop up on your task calendar.

Senior systems analyst Health, Wellness and Fitness Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Great for Team Collaboration, Takes Time to Master" March 27, 2026 5.0 Overall, my experience with Asana has been very positive. It is a reliable and efficient tool for managing tasks and projects, especially in team environments. Once you get used to the interface, it significantly improves productivity and organization. In terms of ease of use, it starts off slightly complex but becomes intuitive over time. Customer support is helpful, and the platform offers good value for money if you actively use its features. Pros What I liked most about Asana is its strong task tracking capabilities and flexibility. It makes it easy to organize projects, assign tasks, set deadlines, and track progress in real time. The interface is clean and visually appealing, and features like timelines, boards, and lists allow you to manage work in different ways depending on your preference. Collaboration is also very smooth, especially for teams. Cons What I liked least about Asana is that it can feel overwhelming at first, especially for new users. There are many features, and it takes some time to fully understand how everything works. Also, some advanced features are only available in paid plans, which may not feel like the best value for smaller teams or individual users. Review Source KM Kristin M. Project Coordinator Marketing and Advertising Used the software for: 2+ years ### "Fan from one job to the next " August 25, 2026 5.0 Pros I love how responsive the help/support team are, especially as a member of the Ambassadors program. It helps enhance my work so that I can better support my teams. I recently moved from one job to another and the support team made it so easy to seamlessly transfer my certifications and account permissions to my new work email; it has been a boon as I have been hired on as part of an organizational shift to using Asana from another PM software. Between this and our Asana client training lead, I am looking forward to helping this new team enhance existing workflows and get even more work to the finish line without losing any steps along the way! Cons The learning curve can be a bit steep if you try to jump in with automations and rules too quickly. Take your time to build something great. Review Source CK Cara K. Writing Coach and Business CEO E-Learning Used the software for: 2+ years ### "To Dos, Organized" July 27, 2026 5.0 I use Asana to organize my small business. I can create different projects for each aspect, from the work itself to the marketing, social media, professional development, and long-term planning. The project capacity encourages me to check in consistently with different areas of the business, helping to keep all balls in the air. Through different views, I can evaluate what needs doing on a project level or deadline level. I can use repeated projects to remember routines, and I can use templates so I don't have to re-invent systems each time I need them. Overall, Asana makes life easier, which is exactly what you want from a project management tool. Pros Asana is an intuitive task manager with a lot of capacity even at the free level. It is easy to start using, allows a lot of projects and tasks, and as I made my projects and task lists more complex, I could make the lists more organized and useful through tools like easily copied and repeated projects, due dates, and places to attach related files right to the task or project itself. Cons I really have no complaints about Asana. Like all task managers, it easily becomes overly complex, but that's more user error than an issue with the program. Review Source EB Erick B. Director of Design and Research Retail Used the software for: 2+ years ### "10 Years Using Asana" June 18, 2026 5.0 Overall provide very productive experience .Has a robust project management and team collaborationtools that help to deliver quality projects before deadlines .

Business Development Manager Hospitality Used the software for: I used a free trial ### "Asana: An Organized and Effective Project Management Tool" August 23, 2026 5.0 My overall experience with Asana has been positive. The platform provides a clear and organized way to manage projects, assign tasks, set deadlines, and track progress. I find the interface intuitive and helpful for keeping team members aligned and accountable. Features such as task comments, subtasks, attachments, and different project views make collaboration more efficient. However, the number of features can sometimes feel overwhelming, especially for new users or complex projects. Overall, Asana is a reliable project management tool that helps teams stay organized, communicate effectively, and complete their work on time. Pros Asana has a clean, intuitive UI that makes it easy to organize projects and switch between list, board, timeline, and calendar views. I especially like how straightforward task assignment is: each task can have a clear owner, due date, priority, and supporting details, so everyone knows their responsibilities. Comments, attachments, subtasks, and dependencies also help keep work organized in one place. The interface can feel a little overwhelming when managing large projects with many tasks, but it becomes easier to navigate with regular use. Overall, Asana’s UI and task assignment features make team collaboration, accountability, and project tracking much more efficient. Cons What I like least about Asana is that the interface can feel overwhelming when managing large projects with many tasks, subtasks, and notifications. Some advanced features are also limited to paid plans, which may be restrictive for smaller teams.
