Find out what your peers are saying about monday.com, Microsoft, Asana and others in Project Management Software."This solution is easier and faster to use compared to Jira. It's not very structured and you can add sub-tasks and issues easily."
"Asana's most valuable aspect is its ability to consolidate all tasks and projects onto a single board, allowing for seamless navigation through timelines from start to finish. Additionally, it enables the inclusion of key stakeholders and provides a private communication channel for discreet discussions. The organizational component of Asana is particularly beneficial, including its coding features."
"Asana has a wonderful user experience that is very easy to interact with and has tons of integrations with other products and tools."
"I like how easy it is to use the rules within Asana."
"The solution's user interface is very good."
"What I like the most about Asana is its API integrations because we use a lot of cluttered toolsets in our company since we need to cater to different clients, for which its integration gives us a lot of flexibility."
"The solution appears to be quite stable."
"By using this software, I have adaptability in my work, and it can improve the production of our company."
"There is a good library of templates for a wide range of needs."
"The solution offers a lot of freedom when drafting directly online."
"Collaboration is most valuable. You can upload or create your documents on Confluence and share them with your team members. Your team members also can share documents."
"The most valuable features are hyper-linking, the Drawing Tool, and enhanced tables."
"Great shareable and co-editing features."
"Easy to share information and the integration with JIRA is good."
"Many people enjoy its zero learning-curve."
"It has a very intuitive user interface, which every user able to manage the basic functionality of a PC will be able to work with and produce quite satisfactory results."
"Auto-shift is an essential feature for planning, but it's currently not there. It should have this feature so that when you move a task that depends on another task, the dates should be auto-shifted. For example, you have two tasks dependent on each other. When the parent task is moved or delayed, the child task should also be delayed, and the date should be shifted. When we have a very long timeline, it's very complex to go task by task and shift the dates on the task. Auto-shift is a fantastic and basic feature of project management, and having such a feature in Asana would make our lives much easier. If Asana added this feature, it would complete the suit and close the project management cycle because currently, there is a gap."
"I rate the support from Asana a four out of five."
"The inbox feature can be a little overwhelming if you are working with Asana just from its project boards and only checking it periodically."
"The solution can be difficult for new users to use because of the interface."
"You need to have an action plan, otherwise, it won't be as effective."
"The mobile application of Asana has to be improved a lot because no one wants to do a complete project management task on mobile."
"There just needs to be a bit more direction on how to use it at the outset."
"On the development side for technical project management, Asana is missing features. We only use it for discussing tasks and strategies, and we use it for customer to-do lists. It doesn't have the source code integration that Jira and Jira Service Desk both have."
"The way Atlassian Confluence handles tickets could be improved."
"I would like Confluence to include the ability to draw flowcharts and diagrams."
"Atlassian Confluence could improve how information is shared outside our company. We had some negative experiences with the rights we have with our information when sharing it within Atlassian Confluence and with other teams outside the company. It's due to the limitations on the rights we have on the export capabilities. We don't have sufficient rights to do so."
"There is room for improvement in maybe the tree structure for articles. If you have a lot of articles, it becomes difficult to navigate."
"Atlassian Confluence should improve the interface, it needs to be more user-friendly. It is easy to use, but it could be more intuitive."
"There are some issues with performance when creating tables."
"Some elements of the user interface could be more user-friendly, including embedding diagrams."
"Space maintenance could be made a little more user-friendly."
