Incredibly flexible, with an easy-to-understand UI and a strong ecosystem of connected apps. It handles repeatable tasks really well, and the biggest benefit over the likes of Monday.com is being able to sync tasks across multiple boards, then roll that progress up against goals and objectives. The AI capabilities are useful, too. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's so configurable that it's hard to know where to start. We paid for implementation support but instead of getting help setting it up around best practice we just got some basic training and guidance. Asana push a 'it's better to do it yourself so you understand the platform better' but this has been a huge barrier for us, and cost us months of wasted time. I find their support and onboarding severely lacking. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like Asana because it has a clean, user-friendly interface and makes task management easy. It helps teams collaborate, assign tasks, set deadlines, and track project progress efficiently. I also like its workflow automation and project tracking features, which help save time and improve productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Asana lacks some important business management features, such as built-in invoicing, expense management, quotes, and a client portal. Some advanced features require expensive premium plans or third-party integrations. It would be better if Asana offered more financial management and billing features in one platform. for ex: avasa has this feature Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ability to keep all my tasks organized while also being able to collaborate with others at the same time. Using automations to lighten my admin workload so I can focus on doing the actual work is also very important. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The inconsistency of how things are applied. Why can I create an automation to do one thing at the task level but can't do a similar thing at the project level. Why can I see the roll up actual time, and other custom fields from all the subtasks in a single parent task, but I can't create a dashboard widget that looks at that roll up? Why are subtasks associated with a project but when I go another layer down they are no longer associated. Why can't I tell an automation to look at values of custom field only in the trigger task, not in the parent task if the trigger task is a subtask? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'm doing a master's degree and working part-time, so my thesis was progressing in bits and pieces, and I always felt lost. I set up a board in Asana with a column for each stage: to write, with my advisor, to correct, and done, and each chapter is a card. When my advisor sends me comments, I paste them on the chapter card and turn them into subtasks, so I don't have to remember what he told me in the last meeting. Last week I saw that I had three chapters stuck in 'to correct' and understood why I felt overwhelmed: it wasn't that I wasn't making progress, it was that I wasn't closing anything. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

At first, I put too many columns and color labels, and I spent more time organizing the board than writing the thesis. I had to delete half and leave only what I really used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What I really enjoy about Asana is it's very user friendly interface. It is very simple to use, and almost each part is self explanatory. Asana's AI, Work with Dash, is one very helpful tool, you can literally ask it anything within Asana and you'll get a proper answer, unlike other AIs I've come across. I love the WhatsApp integration, Whatsana because my executive and I communicate on WhatsApp a lot, and all I do is just forward tasks to Whatsana and that's it. I also like the fact that there's a free tier, very helpful for organizations that want to see how it works over a long period before committing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Not really a downside because it's a business that also needs to make money, but more members in the free tier would be great. Again, not really a downside. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My favorite thing about it is the sheer flexibility of how you can view your work and keep your workload from collapsing into chaos. I'd say it does the job of project management well. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel subtasks are kind of a black hole. They don't automatically inherit the project, tags, or custom fields of the parent task, making them easy to lose track of unless you manually add them to the project. A lot of the features that make Asana truly powerful like advanced timeline dependencies, forms, and automated rules are locked behind higher-paid tiers, which gets expensive fast.

I like that, between Claude and Pocket, I’m able to use Asana as my central task hub. Together, those three platforms have helped me build an “all-the-time” personal assistant that I can rely on. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I deeply dislike the pricing model that makes me pay for two seats innately. I am a solo-entrepreneur. Adding unlimited guests for specific projects is nice and helpful, but I'm wasting extra money each month. And I'd much rather be on the next tier so I can utilize Portfolios. But I can't justify paying twice for a mandated seat I don't use. (For the same reason is why I won't be paying for additional Google workspace user either.)

I love that Asana helps automate our workflow and keeps us on top of recurring activities. It allows me to stay aware of my teammates' progress and my tasks. The project management capabilities and automation options are really beneficial. The dashboards are a nice way of tracking and keeping track of our metrics, which helps in managing and following up on projects effectively. Asana plays a crucial role in tracking requests from different departments and referencing historical submissions. It's easier to control and hold people accountable for their work, making it one of our greatest resources. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I feel like the forms in Asana could have better capabilities, like scheduling times for them to be deactivated, and the questions could have a better layout. It could be a little more inspired by Google Forms. The Studio AI also leaves room for improvement. Alongside some automation options, like identifying who does an action on a trigger, such as adding an attachment, so the rule could work more effectively from there.

I was job hunting a while back and honestly my system before this was just chaos, forty tabs open, a notes app with half typed reminders, completely losing track of which company I'd already followed up with. Set up a board with columns for applied, interview scheduled, waiting to hear back, and offer, then just dragged each company's card across as things moved. Sounds basic but actually seeing everything laid out like that stopped me from double emailing a recruiter who'd already responded, which I'd genuinely done more than once before setting this up.

There's no limit on how many cards can sit in one column, so my applied column ballooned to something like thirty entries at one point and just became this long scroll instead of something I could glance at quickly. Had to manually sort through and archive rejected ones myself since nothing does that automatically. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best part of Asana is how well it balances a clean, user-friendly UX with strong performance. Its automated workflows take care of repetitive task assignments with minimal effort, and the timeline views make it easy to track dependencies at a glance. The onboarding process was smooth, which helped our team start seeing a positive ROI almost immediately. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My biggest pain point is the overwhelming default notification settings. If you don’t take the time to customize your inbox and email alerts early on, the sheer volume of updates can make it easy to miss crucial messages. The interface can also start to feel cluttered and hard to navigate when you’re managing projects with a lot of activity and content. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
