Chaos
What do you like best about the product?
The little things like pasting links onto text to create hyperlinks, and simplicity of pasting images into description
What do you dislike about the product?
It's chaotic in the way that projects are managed and created in the systems.
Creating custom views is not something that's readily available and that makes the overall experience very friction full.
I use it every day, but if it was up to me, I'll probably prefer using two different tools that offer the overall solution, rather than one tool that's disjointed.
We're not using many integrations with Asana, but the connection to Slack for instance, isn't this effective.

A power/nerd-user for more than a decade
What do you like best about the product?
(1) Ease of implementation is fantastic.
(2) I LOVE that you now host meeting-based training workshops (not everyone works well with async learning).
(3) Being able to manage multiple brands, associated projects and have visibility into my team's work and needs. Knowing where we're at on a project at any given time is extremely helpful and Asana helps me and my team stay on top of deadlines with ease.
(4) I love the integration with other platforms like Gmail and Slack.

Creative Manager

Asana is the reason I am sane
What do you like best about the product?
I LOVE the different ways that your tasks. The different boards, timelines, calendars, etc make it so easy to compartmentalize large tasks.
Even personal tasks! It has been a game changer for my ADHD.
Even personal tasks! It has been a game changer for my ADHD.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that you can't add things directly into the calendars, a lot of times you'll have to go to your board that it's associated with and add a task rather than directly into the calendar day.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With multiple projects running, it's difficult to keep up with what tasks are up next, top priority, and which project they're designated to. It's nice to be able to have multiple boards in one space that have tasks that are more complex than just a check list. You can add priorities, dates, and more.
Also, I love that you can see funny cats and dogs with a little Asana hack.

It can email me a lot with their notifications but also not a terrible bother.

Asana is helpful at me understanding what are my priorities of the day. I also like the overview of everything I've accomplished in a week.
Great for task management

Asana keeps our team organized with tasks. It's especially helpful with cross pollinated projects within our team

It's hard to use when not every team uses it, which is a company issue, and not on Asana to solve.

Keep everyone in the loop when assessing or viewing progress on a project.

Great UI and easy to use, but extremely limited without Enterprise
What do you like best about the product?
The UI is extremely user friendly. I like that you can open multiple tabs to work in different projects/templates at one time. I also love the ability to add custom fields and templates are easy to build.
What do you dislike about the product?
I understand that there should be incentives to upgrade, but not having the ability to assign anyone without an Asana license makes it very difficult to keep using (not much value). I can't share the project or tasks with anyone internally or externally, making it an ineffective tool for project management as I can't use it to hold others accountable and provide insight into progress. Aside from the tracking which I could do in Excel, it's really just a prettier interface. In order to really get value from Asana as a project manager, you'd need everyone to have licenses, or you'd need the Enterprise version. In addition, dependencies are difficult to manage, at least with this product tier. It's really confusing and not super intuitive. This may be easier with Enterprise, however, when you're able to assign tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's really just a pretty way to track task completion manually.
