Overall Satisfaction with Asana

We use Asana with one of our contractors to collaborate on projects that have multiple team members and tight deadlines. Asana has helped us track the pieces of the project that are done, what still needs to be done, and who is responsible for each item. The messaging and file sharing within the software are also helpful because we can put everything in one place instead of having to search through emails.
  • All the files and information about the project is in one place instead of searching through email threads looking for information.
  • We can have multiple team members working on the same project and assigned to different parts of the task.
  • The mobile app makes the information available on the go - which was helpful on our video shoot.
  • It was not as intuitive to understand and start using as I thought it would be. It took me a little while to get used to the software and up to speed.
  • The mobile app was harder to find things on - I started using it at the actual video shoot - and should have spent time acquainting myself with it before I needed information working with our project team.
  • It's yet another software to remember to check - different team members are using different softwares. This one was requested by a contractor we work with. Without the email reminders I might not remember to go look for updates.
  • Everything is in one place.
  • Multiple people can collaborate on a project.
  • We can use the free version and not make a software investment.
  • We use the free version so the ROI is excellent.
  • It's saved us time by not having to search for files or chase down email threads.
  • Allows all team members to have the same information and improves communication.
We have a lot of different software available and different teams are using different products. I think Asana is comparable to many of the other software that we use. It was slightly less intuitive than I would have expected, but it did help keep everyone updated on the project and working cohesively.

Would you buy Asana again?

Yes

It's a great project management software where multiple people are collaborating on a project with a lot of moving parts, deliverables, or pieces. I really like that the timeline, tasks, files, everything is in one place. It helps keep you on track and able to get a broad level overview of where you need to be and what parts of a project are ahead or behind schedule.
