"The initial setup is straightforward. It was just a few clicks to get started and to integrate Asana into our existing business system. It took 15 days to fully implement our projects using Asana."
"Asana has helped me (as an individual contributor) organize my daily work and given me a way to plan for longer term objectives."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Stable Kanban style tool for collaboration and task management. It runs smoothly and has a straightforward setup."
"The solution appears to be quite stable."
"Asana has a wonderful user experience that is very easy to interact with and has tons of integrations with other products and tools."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its project management tracking systems."
"The ability to network informally is great for communicating with colleagues."
"The ease of use is valuable."
"The solution can be difficult for new users to use because of the interface."
"Some customizations and functions are still not available, however, so far, they haven't been a deal killer."
"If you have been using a tool like Jira for many years, it make time some time to get used to the minimalist layout in Asana."
"Their workflows and automation could use a big improvement. I don't even know if they have anything in that regard right now. I would really love to see a way where you can send custom alerts based on a task's completion or status change or an approval coming through. I would love to see a way to get some low-code functionality into Asana because right now, that is a big miss."
"More features can be added."
"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."
"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 documentation for integration could be improved. We require more information to facilitate the integrations."
"The product isn't easy to use. It's not very intuitive."
"The solution could be more user-friendly."
