Quotes From Members
We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use.
Here are some excerpts of what they said:
Pros
"My task box displays all of our tasks, organized by day, helping us to focus on what needs to be done each day.""The most valuable feature of Asana is the tracking of comments and documents in one place.""Asana provides a lot of options and a lot of customization to give the best efficient way for your business to operate. For example, I can customize my tasks, tables, and pipelines the way I want them to fit my business model. It's easy and highly customizable.""It's an easy way to communicate.""By using this software, I have adaptability in my work, and it can improve the production of our company.""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.""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.""The most valuable feature of the solution is its project management tracking systems."

More Asana Pros →

"It creates workflows to handle business processes. It allows us to route approvals to users without human intervention.""It leverages the out-of-the-box SharePoint back-end. This means that you don’t need to install or deploy additional infrastructure to support Nintex Workflow, unlike some of its competitors.""Only Nintex has the feature which allows attachments to an email.​""Provides the ability to automate SharePoint processes (building sites, lists, updating content). You can also automate document and content processes, onboarding and offboarding, and general IT and HR solutions.""The solution helped us automate several processes we used to do manually.""Easily maintained and customization is quite simple.""I find it useful to utilize LDAP query action to find out the status of a particular user.""The most valuable features of this solution are that it's no code, it's very flexible, and it's easy to design."

Cons
"We don't get enough notifications.""It would be great if Asana could create a library for each project within the interface.""This solution has a learning curve, where it is initially difficult to use.""The mobile application of Asana has to be improved a lot because no one wants to do a complete project management task on mobile.""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 messaging feature could be better.""The product must reduce the information on the interface.""Currently, there are only a few available options, but it would be helpful to have more control over the notifications received."

More Asana Cons →

"K2's support for DevOp team corporations is weak.""We'd like to have integration with SharePoint.""We cannot use the same solution on cloud.""Unfortunately, Nintex Workflow is not that stable. We are looking at shifting to another tool.""The tool lacks to offer support for the Arabic language, and it needs consideration.""The solution is a bit too expensive. It could be cheaper.""Currently, copying workflow actions from one workflow to another is not possible. Also, the Office 365 solution is not as mature as on-premise.""​Bring all features available from the on-premise product into the cloud version and the workflow error reporting.​"

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."

  • "Nintex products are expensive, but valuable. Licensing in on-premise was historically based on a perpetual model, where you’d license per Web front-end. However, they are switching exclusively to a consumption (subscription) model, where you purchase the number of workflows you think you’ll use in your environment, and can scale up from there."
  • "Offering a licensing model that allows for multiple small workflows would be a huge improvement to an already great platform."
  • "Our maintenance costs are reduced."
  • "The annual support costs are expensive."
  • "Comparatively, it's expensive."
  • "We pay on a yearly basis. It's my understanding that we pay approximately $11,000/year."
  • "The initial investment in K2 is heavy. Currently, the expenditure is $28,000 for a year. After we go to the cloud, it is going to be per seat and probably cheaper. Currently, there are unlimited users."
  • "There is an initial fee when purchasing and a fee for maintenance afterward."
