Powerful task-management tool, but with great power comes a lot of onboarding
Overall Satisfaction with Asana
Asana is used across my entire organization. We have implemented it across teams/sectors of our company, and over the years we have refined the process in which we use it as a company. We use it for task management (both on a project, client, and personal level) as well as bandwidth/scheduling planning and estimation.
Pros
- Great customer support/onboarding & training materials
- Constant innovation
- Flexibility of the tool as a whole (can be used differently for company wide usage, or for personal use)
Cons
- I would like to see more flexibility in due date functionality. I usually like to start my tasks with generous runway before the due date, so I typically set my due dates much sooner than the actual due date to ensure the tasks are started on time.
- Additional data visualizations to understand when tasks and projects are clustering together.
- The flow between tasks and subtasks could potentially be simplified or streamlined
- Creating Project Boards with subtasks
- Being able to create and assign tasks to others
- The new Portfolios feature is something my company intends to heavily lean on going forward.
- It's helped us track deliverables so nothing falls through the cracks, which reflects positively with our clients
- It strengthens internal accountability, when tasks are explicitly assigned to employees
- It's been helpful for personal and professional goal setting
