Pros

The best tools of Asana are found once we start a project, since the calendar that is integrated into our mail is super easy to use and we use it as a small agenda.
The management of projects is incredible, the monitoring provided is one of the best in its category, since it facilitates group work.
The creation and assignment of tasks, notifications and that each person can enter to work no matter where it is since it has a good mobile and web interface.

Cons

Asana does a lot, so it can sometimes be hard to find the right place to be to find the tools you need.
Organization is only as good as you make it and just because a system makes sense to the person that creates it does not mean it will make sense to anyone else.
It can be challenging to find the information you need via search.

Within a task, to log hours you must scroll all the way to the bottom. If there are a lot of entries, this can be tiresome. The Add Log Hours link should be at the top of the entries.
The default font size in Pages is very small. Even if you select all of the text and increase the font size, any links will remain in the small font size. You must edit the source code to change the font size of links.
In the Timesheet Calendar view, it would be helpful to break apart the non-billable and billable on hover like it does when you hover over the Time Log column in Tasks.

Zoho Projects is an easy project management tool to use. It provides all the functionality that we required for handling projects. We can easily create personal forms for projects and tasks, allowing us to add and report on our own desire. Apart from this we can create and edit documents in real time which saves our time.

Support

I haven't had to have any interactions with their customer support. So, I guess that means they get a 10 because I never have to talk to them! When the recent system outage happened, they were very active on twitter trying to communicate with people and give an update on what was going on.

Customer services and support was great. I was able to get someone on the phone to assist where needed. Online support could use some ramping up but overall there are enough resources to get through any bumps. Their team is very responsive and makes sure you get a resolution for your solution

Alternatives Considered

Basecamp and Podio can be too ridged for some departments/teams. With Asana, the tools is meant to be flexible so if you find another way to accomplish a task or process it is easy to adjust/refine. More administration is required with Basecamp and Podio. With Asana, participation is the main driver with less administration

Zoho Projects is far superior as a project management tool compared to the simple ones we investigated. The pricing was very competitive to the market and the free trial helped out with our proof of concept. Compared to Workfront, you get similar functionality but at a fraction of the costs
