Overall Satisfaction with Asana

Asana is being used by the whole firm to keep track of tasks on particular cases. In particular, we have a project for each active case and create tasks for each case. Those tasks are assigned to secretaries and attorneys at the firm. We use it as a single place to see everything that is being done to advance our cases. We also track deadlines.
  • Allows managers to track assignments given to others
  • Allows team members to see the current and future tasks on cases
  • Allows team members to add tasks to the platform from email
  • The calendar view showing due dates for tasks gets messy and hard to read
  • Integration with email could be better, as many users did not like going to a separate website to view task management
  • Assigning tasks to others and seeing the status of others' tasks
  • Everyone on the team being able to add tasks to the projects
  • Ability to see completed tasks as well as incomplete ones
  • It helped me as the manager to keep track of the status of projects, but I couldn't get team buy-in to use it effectively, so I was spending a lot of time adding and checking off tasks
I liked Asana's user interface and ability to assign tasks to others and check on the status of them. However, the calendaring function is inferior to Basecamp's, so my team preferred to use Basecamp only.

Yes

Would you buy Asana again?

No

It would work well for any team that has projects with multiple steps that need to be coordinated across different players. My team does not use the platform as much as I would like because it's an extra step that they have to take before they can get work done. It is very customizable, so the lists and projects can be tailored to your specific needs. There are also a variety of views so you can change the way the tasks are displayed to you to fit your personal needs while still working together as a team.
