Asana

Initially it was a bit overwhelming to set up and sort through all of the features and uses, but once you work with your team and figure out a system it is hands down the most useful and intuitive workspace / task management platform. There are always new features and integrations to be learned which is great to experiment and use as you grow with the platform.

The best part about Asana is how customizable it is in so many different facets, you can really tailor it to the needs of your specific team and project. The amount of functions that it has and its ability to integrate other apps and services within it makes it extremely versatile and intelligent once you customize it to all of your needs. I also enjoy that there is a mobile app version.

With all of its endless functionality tools - it can be a bit daunting in setting up the ideal layout and structure of use for your team. There are so many options and features that can make the software seem almost too sophisticated and complicated for everyday use. Not exactly user friendly up front, but once you figure it out and are patient in working out tailoring your workspace it is very useful and covers all bases.

We use it for managing client projects. We use it for managing internal projects. We use it for brainstorming. We store non-sensitive data that the whole team needs to have quick access to utilize. You name it. It is our swiss army knife. It has been a great tool for organizing our business.

It has grown over the years to become incredibly versatile. Initially, it started with a list view. Perfect for me. I love lists. Then they added card views like some competitors have utilized. Depending on the project a card view may be ideal. They now have a timeline and Gantt style options as well. This is incredibly valuable for managing long projects with multiple team members and milestones. The software has matured in a way that has allowed us to have a great solution/layout for any size/complexity of project.

All of the many features can now make the software daunting for new employees/clients to grasp. They do have a wealth of "getting started" literature. The core issue is that a significant time commitment is required to grasp every facet of the tool.

It was a very good tool to use, highly user friendly, quite effective and very visually attractive. This tool is great for startups in my opinion and the price is fair for the features it has.

I like how user friendly it is, the aesthetics (looks), it's very neat and colorful at the same time, it provides a good option for organization and I think it's a good tool for startups, it makes planning, task assignment, tracking and registering much easier.

I think the software is amazing but it lacks some features seen on more robusts tools such as Zoho Projects, still, this tool can integrate with other small tools that can give you access to Gantt Charts or timelines, etc. The problem is you have to pay for those additional integrations.

Overall, I couldn't imagine our company not using Asana. It keeps us on task, it plays well with other platforms and it's easy to use. It may not look at flashy as other project management tools, but it's robust and gets the job done.

ASANA is feature-rich with the flexibility that allows for both list and visually driven people to stay on task and get things done. The numerous APIs available helps integrate ASANA to various other platforms easily. We use Slack and ASANA almost as one entity at this point. I personally use the Kanban-style tiles when creating projects and found the ability to drag and drop to be immensely helpful. We have tried other software like Trello, Airtable, etc. but come back to ASANA because of it's the ease of use and reliability.

Puntos en contra

I found the I wish the Calendar was more robust, I would like to be able to move due dates, etc as a drag and drop feature on the calendar but it's not available. Also, when creating the titles on the tiles I found it not to be intuitive and end up having to click multiple times to get it right.
