Asana Reviews & Product Details

Over time Asana has continued to improve its workflow and collaboration features. I especially like how easy it is to organize tasks, assign responsibilities, and track project progress in one place. The timeline and board views help our team understand priorities clearly.

Another thing I appreciate is the integration support with other tools we use for communication and documentation. It helps keep our work organized without switching between too many platforms. Overall, it has made managing projects and communicating with clients much smoother. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One area that could be improved is the search and task discovery experience when working with very large projects. Sometimes it takes extra time to locate older tasks or discussions.

It would also be helpful if reporting and analytics features were a bit more customizable so teams can quickly generate insights about project performance. Aside from that, the platform works very reliably for daily task management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Asana makes it easy to organize and track progress on workflows across teams, as well as organizing personal tasks. The automations and integrations with Asana are unmatched! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There are truly very few downsides to Asana. I do wish it could be used more easily for a content calendar setup, although there may be a better way to configure that now after ongoing improvements have been made to the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We initially chose Asana to take our project management to the next level as our company was growing and communication through email or messengers was no longer enough. It became essential to track projects clearly, receive status notifications, and respond quickly to changes.

Over time, we truly moved to a new level of work. The team has started to genuinely enjoy the process — we’ve passed the first stage of mindset transformation and built a solid foundation around our core projects.

We upgraded to the Advanced Plan, which significantly changed how management operates. Now we use Goals for strategic alignment, Reporting for visibility, and Portfolios for executive-level oversight. This is a completely different level of structured and transparent work.

One improvement that would significantly help our workflow is a native integration between Asana Forms and Google Sheets.

For example, we use forms to collect employee timesheet data. That data needs to be calculated and processed in Google Sheets. Currently, we have to rely on Google Forms → Google Sheets → Make integration → Asana to move the data properly.

A direct and automatic export or sync from Asana Forms to Google Sheets would simplify the process, reduce dependencies on third-party tools, and make operational workflows much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Last year, as owner of my agency, I wanted to explore other PM tools to see if there was a better fit for our workflow, and so I set up accounts with all of the most-marketed PM tools. Each one had a feature or two that was really nice, but none had a flow to them that clicked with my agency's overall processes. After months of experimenting, I returned fulltime to Asana convinced that it is unchallenged as the best PM tool out there because it seems to understand its users better than the others.

I am not in the anti-AI hivemind. I use AI daily for my and my agency's workflow, but with one qualification: It must provide value. So far, Asana's AI offerings don't offer obvious value. Maybe it's there and the problem is messaging about the value, or maybe they rushed AI features due to investor pressure without an obvious need. Regardless, the AI parts need a lot of work.

I like the consistency of Asana - the AI is getting better all the time (so are other tools to be fair). There are also more native integrations with other software so clearly developers also see the value of Asana Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pricing - Vendors keep charging per user and they don't look at models where small companies need to get all the different features that are on offer, but can't afford to pay for every member of their team to access. So there should be foptions where you can have one fully paid membership or ultra membership or pro membership, whatever the software vendor's terminology is, but that free members can still access and use accordingly. Not need to have to upgrade to the same tier. Unfortunately this is the problem with all software Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our integration with Asana spans not just our Asana software, but also our custom middlware project that ties our other ticketing and case management systems. The AI tools that have come along with Asana, and the enhanced rules implemented the last year have been really helpful in allowing us to more easily pinpoint the work needed to be accomplished.

This is difficult for me, as we have a workflow that we have been able to customize to fit our needs perfectly. We also have not touched a lot of the different tools, including some of the new Goal management features, so it is hard to say if what we might need doesn't already exist. So I really cannot think of anything that we need or wish worked differently as of today. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Updates are always rolling out from the Asana Team, which shows that they are constantly taking feedback and making adjustments. The AI integration for building custom rules is helpful for those who don't know where to start, and they keep adding ways to ensure that things are cleaned up and functional.

I would like to see the Mobile App "Home" tab to get some love. It would make sense for all the widgets to stay consistent on each interface. For example, the Private Notepad is limited to the desktop app/web version, which is not handy if you only have your phone and you need something from there.

Recently, Asana updated their UI. It's broken down into 4 sections: Work, Plan, Workflow, and Company. This change really helps you categorize everything you have in Asana and quickly find what you're looking for. Asana has also introduced AI into several areas of their platform. The areas where I use AI are in the messaging/response area and the project creation area. This is very helpful with day-to-day tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My company is on the Starter plan, which includes many features, but I wish the plans were broken up more clearly. Several features are partially included with the Starter plan but require upgrading to the Advanced plan to use them fully. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Asana has always been very easy for me and my colleagues to organize projects. As a dev, I usually spend my day going through my tasks on Asana, its simple and everything stays at one place. I am able to return to the task even after months, as it is easy to navigate it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I was able to find a way to split tasks when more than 1 person is working on it, but then both tasks become independent, and they don't sync with each other. I wish there is a way to assign one single task to more than 1 person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Asana has come a long way, and my appreciation for it has only grown. The reporting feature is one of my favorites - I wish it were more robust at my tier, but the vision is clearly there and it already does so much. Workflows and the workflow builder have been a game changer for how my team operates, and task templates are one of the best additions Asana has made in recent years. The integrations have expanded enormously - you can connect nearly anything - and the overall user experience has improved significantly over time. I also continue to value Asana Academy as a resource for getting users truly proficient on the tool. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The search function remains frustrating to navigate - it's difficult to find what you're looking for quickly, which is a real pain point when you're managing a lot of work. My biggest recurring issue is with repeating tasks: when a task recurs, it duplicates all subtasks, including ones that were already marked complete. This creates unnecessary clutter and extra cleanup work every time a task cycles. I'd love to see both of these addressed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
