Find out in this report how the two Project Portfolio Management solutions compare in terms of features, pricing, service and support, easy of deployment, and ROI."Asana has significantly reduced the number of emails we exchange because we can access the project directly. It organizes all the tasks related to each project, assigns them to staff with due dates, and tracks progress."
"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."
"It's an easy way to communicate."
"It’s a great way to communicate plans and progress across the business and is flexible about how much detail I include and how I present it."
"The general UI shows progress and data analytics for all projects in progress."
"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."
"The solution appears to be quite stable."
"Stable Kanban style tool for collaboration and task management. It runs smoothly and has a straightforward setup."
"SAP is gradually introducing more flexibility and customization options to the system, allowing users to adapt it to their specific needs."
"The integration portion with SAP models is valuable."
"It's difficult to have short-term collaborations with external users because the operations team owns the final licenses, and I work for marketing."
"There just needs to be a bit more direction on how to use it at the outset."
"More features can be added."
"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 could be some improvements in terms of how projects or day-to-day work is organized. One of the challenges when it comes to rolling out to an enterprise is the way the projects are organized. It has a kind of setup where you have different projects and tasks, but it is not as organized as Smartsheet when it comes to organizing projects or different teams. It can get really cluttered really fast. JIRA has another suite to submit the support tickets. It would be good if Asana could branch out to incorporate some kind of workflow. It is great for collaboration and recording work, but there isn't any workflow. It would be useful if they can map out a workflow of who approves what. This is kind of a big ask, and it is not geared towards that."
"Some customizations and functions are still not available, however, so far, they haven't been a deal killer."
"Currently, there are only a few available options, but it would be helpful to have more control over the notifications received."
"It would be valuable if SAP integrated seamlessly with some products like Jira and Bitbucket."
"The system is old, so there are several issues that arise when we fetch data from integrated systems. Sometimes the data gets stuck, and there are instances where we need to access multiple pieces of information simultaneously."
