Asana Reviews

“Great team collaboration”

Pros

Working with multiple team members in it is very easy and the platform is simple to use overall.

Cons

The cost can climb quite a bit once the whole company begins using it.

“Helpful task reminders”

Pros

Asana kept my tasks organized and sent reminders when something needed attention which helped me stay on top of everything.

Cons

One thing it was missing for me was the ability to send email reminders to clients about paperwork that was due.

“Flexible and user friendly”

Pros

Using this tool is not a hassle and the flexibility it offers is one of the best things about the app.

Cons

Its collaboration tools are actually a strong advantage since they help improve productivity for any business.

“useful features”

Pros

This tool or pretty easy to use and the platform offers plenty of useful features along with an excellent interface.

Cons

At times the large number of features can feel a bit overwhelming and may cause some confusion.

“interface needs improvements”

Pros

The dependent task feature is excellent. Being able to set contingencies between tasks is really useful.

Cons

The interface is very plain. It's not difficult to use but it's not especially user friendly either.

“Helpful team organization”

Pros

It is easy to use and does a really good job as an organization tool. It helps keep work organized and makes it easier to stay on top of tasks.

Cons

Collaboration across teams could work better and building more detailed boards or managing more complex projects can sometimes feel a bit tricky.

“Web tabs seem too sensitive”

Pros

The scheduling side of the platform is pretty easy to navigate so it doesn't take much effort to find your way around.

Cons

On the web version the interface can be overly sensitive when organizing tabs or adding notes and it often opens items from accidental clicks when you didn't mean to select them.

“Reliable task prioritization”

Pros

It has been a dependable tool for handling projects and daily tasks. One thing that really helps is being able to set priorities on the tasks we create which keeps everything organized. It's also very easy to use so getting around the platform doesn't take much effort.

Cons

The biggest downside is the pricing since the license can be expensive. The free version also feels restricted because it comes with limited features.

“Manageable start for teamwork”

Pros

This product is great overall. I actually began my career at my current company using this tool and it felt pretty manageable compared with the platform we're using now.

Cons

One thing my team had to spend time on was figuring out whether the tool supported integrations with the other products we wanted to connect.

“Stays on top of deadlines”

Pros

Asana has been excellent for keeping work organized. It helps the whole team stay aligned on projects and makes it much easier to keep up with deadlines.

Cons

There's definitely a lot to take in at first. Even though the platform is user friendly, it still comes with a lot of features and concepts to learn.

“Feature packed and capable”

Pros

It comes with a huge range of features and plenty of options to work with.

Cons

At the same time it often feels too complicated for what I need. We're not running large software projects or anything similar so our project management needs are quite different.

“Simple and time saving”

Pros

Using this tool has been really easy because it's simple to navigate and saves a lot of time when managing different projects all in one place.

Cons

I haven't run into any major problems with the tool although there have been times when I experienced issues with notifications.

“Versatile project support”

Pros

It handled a wide range of projects across the organization and was very user friendly to work with.

Cons

The initial setup on the front end took quite a while. You really have to be clear about what you want from the product and then configure it within the system. After we got everything in place, it worked well but getting started definitely felt a bit heavy.

“reliable for project tracking”

Pros

It has been reliable for keeping projects organized and making it easier to track tasks across the team.

Cons

I ran into some limitations with the software and a few parts didn't work as expected.

“Great planning and team visibility”

Pros

It makes project management really easy, with plenty of tools that help with planning and tracking work. Team collaboration works well too and the different views give a clear picture of the current status and ongoing tasks. The comment sections are also very handy for asking teammates questions and keeping communication in one place.

Cons

The free plan does come with limitations and it was disappointing to see the free for students offer get discontinued. That change is a major downside because I used to teach my students more advanced project management concepts by using its Premium features as a practical example.

“Task assignment game changer”

Pros

Handling task lists and assigning work, whether it's for internal teams or customer-facing projects, has been a real game changer.

Cons

I don't have any complaints. It's a fantastic tool with a modern interface.

“Best interface and flexibility”

Pros

Among all the project management tools I have used, Asana has the best interface and gives you the most flexibility as your projects expand.

Cons

Once your team gets bigger, the paid plan can add to your costs. That said the free version is fantastic for getting started and upgrading later still feels worth the money.

“simple setup, quick rollout”

Pros

Getting everyone started with this tool was really quick and the interface is user friendly from the start. It's simple to use and setting it up across the whole organization didn't take much time at all.

Cons

There isn't much here to complain about overall. The only real downside is that as more users are added, the cost can become fairly high for small and mid-sized businesses.

“Versatile workflow powerhouse”

Pros

Asana has been an excellent customizable platform for managing projects and tasks, with a wide range of features for lead tracking, workload planning and automation that genuinely support keeping organizational goals on track.

Cons

In our case it performs exceptionally well. From its access control setup to the user friendly interface, there is very little to complain about and the pricing is also quite reasonable.

“flexible task tracking setup”

Pros

Working with an agency as a freelancer, I mostly rely on it to organize upcoming work, share briefs, receive task details and keep track of current progress. It's set up in a very simple manner for that kind of workflow like you get main tasks with subtasks that connect logically, all relevant files can be attached directly and custom fields make it quick to check or update things like project status. The task board also gives a clear overview and feels manageable to work with.

Cons

One part that doesn't work as well for me is the timeline view since it can feel a little cluttered and makes it harder to keep track of everything at a glance. That said the calendar view seems to handle this better and is a bit easier to follow.
