"Asana helped me organize my thesis and move forward with clarity"

4/5

What do you like best about Asana?

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.

What do you dislike about Asana?

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 problems is Asana solving and how is that benefiting you?

I didn't expect a task tool to help me feel less anxious about something so big, but seeing the progress by stages instead of one huge document changed my mindset. I learned the hard way that it's best to start simple. Now I open the board every morning, and I never used to do that with my Word file. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
