Reviews of Asana
Alternatives Considered:
Great for small businesses on a budget
Comments: No complaints considering we are able to do most of what we need with the free version.
Pros:
Easy to use, free and very quick to pickup.
Cons:
No way to collaborate on tasks.... or a way to assign points to tasks. Maybe paid feature?
Alternatives Considered:
Simple yet fully effective
Comments: Excellent and I couldn't see our company wanting to replace the software. The other thing to mention is that I am sure there resolution services are good however we have never needed to contact them in the years that we have been a customer. The software never seems to glitch which is unheard of.
Pros:
It is so effortless to use. Instead of software trying to justify its cost by making things more complicated than it needs to be, asana just allows you to tailor exactly the internal sheets you need so you can collaborate easily with a widespread team.
Cons:
The only downside with Asana is just its level of integration with other software that we use on a daily basis. We knew that Asana didn't integrate with the software we wanted it too but decided that it was still worth implementing within our business.
Alternatives Considered:
Quality product, but gets complicated fast!
Comments: I really wanted to like Asana because of the good things that others have told me about it, but I'm struggling to get used to the way the tasks are organised and how much day to day management of the product is required to keep the workspace "clean".
Pros:
The UI feels intuitive and overall it's a high quality product.
Cons:
Things get really complicated, really quickly.
A fabulous software we cannot live without
Comments: Really excellent from start to finish, it syncs easily with our Google calendar workspaces, our time tracking softwares, it has helped our business grow, get organised and far more efficient. It's invaluable and we love it also from a personal organisation point of view now as well as professionally.
Pros:
Clarity and ease of adding tasks, the app works super well on the go too for this, adding in particular features specific to projects, easy scheduling and assigning of tasks, view settings, the kamban boards, gantt views and goal setting and linking capabilities. It's really intuitive and we love it.
Cons:
The work flow setting up is tricky to master if you're not already good at that sort of thing and it would be great to be able to download the gantt charts and calendars to share with people not required on our Asana platform but otherwise it's really well supported, the education is excellent and we love it.

Asana Keeps Life Organized!
Comments: My overall experience with Asana with Asana was great! I still continue to use them because they keep me and all my projects on time and everything in my life organized. I have 8 million projects going on at all times and they keep me up to date and me on time, so I don't get lost in what I am doing. Between being a student and a self-employed employed worker Asana is a blessing!
Pros:
What I loved about Asana was that it was very easy to use! It was also a project management software that was made for someone who is a one man show or someone that has a team of people working for them as well. They don't rope you by making them buy their software outright they give you a free trial first which is great because it allows you to see if it is a good fit for you and your team first. It keeps track of everything you are doing and makes sure you are getting everything you are done on time so that you aren't falling behind. You can also use this app on your phone and on your computer which is great because not everything be can done on your phone.
Cons:
The only thing that I didn't that I did not like about it was that unless you had internet you could not use it and when I went to a different for country for business there was an issue with the time. And when I looked into it, it said that there was native time keeping for Asana.
