Find out what your peers are saying about monday.com, Microsoft, Asana and others in Project Management Software."Stable Kanban style tool for collaboration and task management. It runs smoothly and has a straightforward setup."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is its project management tracking systems."
"I like how easy it is to use the rules within Asana."
"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."
"I really enjoy the portfolios in Asana. One of the ways Asana stands out to me is with portfolios. You can have all your different projects, and you can have those assigned to different teams. If you want to customize a grouping of projects, you can use portfolios. For instance, one of the things that we do is we can assign a portfolio to a specific strategic objective we have, and we can put all those projects that are related to that strategic objective in that portfolio. We then know exactly what people are working on to help us achieve our goals. So, I really like portfolios."
"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 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."
"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."
"Fast prototyping."
"Can do a lot of things with minimum time and cost."
"The stability has been good. We haven't had any issues."
"The solution has very helpful technical support."
"The ability to define processes, build reports, and get insights or analytics on data is most valuable. It is a powerful platform."
"Pega BPM's most valuable features are case management, integration, the convenience of using REST APIs, and the ease of changing things at the UI level."
"Pega BPM has a full suite for any enterprise. It is a process orchestration platform. It has detailed features for case management and workflows."
"Decreased time for plane departures and landing, supported analytical insight for planning of three to six month forecasting, and helped with operational decision planning and support."
"The product's page is not user-friendly."
"For large teams, scalability should be improved."
"The product must reduce the information on the interface."
"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."
"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."
"It would be great if Asana could create a library for each project within the interface."
"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."
"In the next release of Pega BPM, they should add more ways to do the customer interaction fields in the portals."
"If it could also be integrated with robotics, it could help with a lot of things, even if we don't have APIs, we could still talk to other applications. If it could invoke a bot, for example."
"The way the IDE works with the chatbox and the taxonomy imports could be a little smoother."
"From a technical point of view, it would be helpful to have some advanced analytics to help with configuration. We have a lot of unwanted features and it would be good to configure it more appropriately so that we are using just exactly what we need."
"Sometimes when we are patching some data from the database, we are getting added as a timeout."
"Pega BPM's documentation should be improved, especially for freshers or new trainees."
"We have experienced a few technical challenges, particularly triggering the workflow through file drops and accessing files."
"Business specific functionality is needed."
