Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"Asana, despite its compact size, proves to be incredibly valuable. When initiating a project, it offers the ability to generate a personalized form for clients. In this particular context, my clients include the customer success team and solution architects. This feature allows me to provide them with a convenient means to submit their requests, resembling a ticketing system geared towards internal operations. Moreover, it enables efficient allocation within my team. For instance, if a question pertains to customer success, I can assign it to the CSOps manager and the team. Similarly, if it relates to a specific channel, it can be allocated accordingly.""What I like most about Asana is its simplicity. For example: we're not the only ones using it, and we onboard our customers to it, and normally, they have no questions.""By using this software, I have adaptability in my work, and it can improve the production of our company.""Asana allows you to create your own project with sub sections with subtasks that can be assigned. The feature I really love is that you can tag people to notify them that there has been progress on a project as well as add attachments.""The initial setup was straightforward.""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 has helped me (as an individual contributor) organize my daily work and given me a way to plan for longer term objectives.""The tool has a lot of integrations."

More Asana Pros →

"Online Collaboration made it easy to brainstorm.""Integrations with so many other tools make this platform highly useful."

More Miro Pros →

Cons
"More features can be added.""I rate the support from Asana a four out of five.""It would be beneficial if Asana had a predecessor feature that automatically adjusts all subsequent dates when changes are made to a timeline. For example, if I assign a designer four hours for one task and two days for another, and the completion of a task takes longer than anticipated, it would be convenient if updating one date could prompt the adjustment of all other relevant dates. Essentially, this feature would streamline the process and eliminate the need for manual adjustments.""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 documentation could be enhanced by incorporating more visually informative videos that demonstrate how to accomplish specific tasks. While Asana's community support is valuable for answering questions, finding precise answers often requires sifting through multiple posts. Having concise and explanatory videos would greatly improve the user experience. When searching on platforms like Google, there are many individuals sharing their approaches to using Asana. However, the information provided is often not directly applicable to one's specific needs. Therefore, it would be advantageous to have comprehensive video tutorials that address common user queries. This would provide a more efficient and intuitive way of accessing information, especially when it comes to learning how to navigate and utilize Asana's features effectively.""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.""It's hard to integrate Asana into other parts of the company workflow, so integration is an area for improvement.""You need to have an action plan, otherwise, it won't be as effective."

More Asana Cons →

"It should have a desktop version.""Maybe at some point, Miro should be able to use AI to provide analysis from the brainstorming sessions or files fed into it."

Pricing and Cost Advice
  • "The price of this solution makes it quite accessible, and the plans fit my budget."
  • "Asana has two different types of structures: company vs workspace. Company is really best if all the users you plan to assign work to are all internal (have the same corporate domain in their user ID email address). Once one person signs up (even for a free account) with a corporate email address, Asana will automatically relate that person to that company, if it already exists. If you plan to use it for external collaboration as well as internal, then creating a workspace is a better approach."
  • "It has a free version."
  • "There is a free version of Asana, but we use the paid version to receive all the features we want. The overall price is reasonable."
  • "Its price is fair. Its licensing cost is cheaper than Microsoft Project. I would rate it a two out of five in terms of pricing."
  • "For what it brings to the table, I think Asana is fairly affordable. I would like to see the portfolio feature in our pricing plan, but other than that, it's definitely pretty good."
  • "We're on the business tier, which is $25 a month if you're on an annual contract. It's $31 if you're on a month-to-month contract. In my experience, there are no hidden costs with Asana. I know Smartsheet has these add-ons that you can buy, which is an additional cost, but Asana doesn't have any add-ons that I know of. When you're trying to scale the product and want to add users, you have to do it in buckets of five. This is also something to consider."
  • "This solution is reasonably priced."

    Overview

    Asana is web-based software-as-a-service that helps teams coordinate and manage their work. It helps companies move faster by making sure everyone knows the team’s plan and process and who is doing what by when.

    Each user can create projects using a list, board, calendar, or timeline view. Within each project, users can add tasks, subtasks, sections, comments, attachments, start and due dates, and custom fields. Project and task followers get notifications on changes or comments on the project and/or task in their Inbox. Individual users can see all of the tasks they're responsible for across all of their projects in a view called My Tasks.

    Asana is available in English, French, Spanish, German, and Portuguese.

    Miro is a collaborative online whiteboard platform that enables teams to work together remotely, brainstorm ideas, and visualize concepts. With its intuitive interface and extensive range of features, Miro has become a popular tool for remote teams, designers, and educators.

    One of the key features of Miro is its vast library of templates and widgets, which allows users to quickly create various types of visual content such as mind maps, flowcharts, wireframes, and user journey maps. These templates provide a starting point for collaboration and help teams to structure their ideas effectively.

    Miro also offers real-time collaboration, allowing team members to work together on the same board simultaneously. Users can leave comments, mention team members, and have discussions directly on the board, eliminating the need for lengthy email threads or separate communication tools.

    The platform also integrates with popular tools like Slack, Jira, and Google Drive, making it easy to import and export content from other applications. This seamless integration enhances productivity and ensures that teams can work with their preferred tools without any disruptions.

    Furthermore, Miro provides a range of interactive features that enhance collaboration and engagement. Users can add sticky notes, create voting sessions, and conduct remote workshops using Miro's built-in video conferencing capabilities. These features make it easy for teams to brainstorm ideas, gather feedback, and make decisions together, regardless of their physical location.

    In addition to its collaborative features, Miro also prioritizes security and privacy. The platform offers enterprise-grade security measures, including data encryption, access controls, and compliance with industry standards like GDPR and SOC 2. This ensures that sensitive information remains protected and confidential.
