[Overview](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/asana-profile/) Reviews [Alternatives](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/asana-profile/alternatives/) # Asana User Reviews ## Reviews summary - Overall rating: 4.5/5 - Total reviews: 13,776 ### Secondary ratings - Ease of use: 4.4/5 - Customer support: 4.3/5 - Value for money: 4.4/5 - Functionality: 4.4/5 ### Rating distribution - 5 stars: 8,214 reviews (60%) - 4 stars: 4,409 reviews (32%) - 3 stars: 920 reviews (7%) - 2 stars: 131 reviews (1%) - 1 star: 102 reviews (1%) ### Most mentioned pros - I use it to organize sprint related activities, track feature requests, and manage priorities effectively. While it is not a replacement for dedicated coding tools, it works well as a collaboration and project management platform that improves transparency and team productivity. - The smooth user interface, combined with flexible task delegation features, allows teams to maintain clear structure, meet deadlines efficiently, and optimize daily operations seamlessly. - The way you can build out the automation so that you can automate the repetitive task and the integration with third party applications like Teams and Salesforce ### Most mentioned cons - It can take some time to set up the right workflow when financial tasks involve several approval stages, and the number of project options can feel like more than I need for simple accounting work. - I literally spend 50% of my mornings going back & forth between "My Work" & the Inbox looking for where they've hidden the Assets again and if you forget to turn OFF the Timer, it screws up the entire Report. And also, the notifications are completely OUT OF CONTROL. - Only con I have found is duplication of update emails, i.e., You can receive an update on a task, but also receive the same update if someone is assigning a specific task to you. ## Asana customer reviews Showing reviews 1-25 of 13,776 (page 1). ### A Helpful Tool for Managing Tasks and Projects - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Thelma M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Writing and Editing - Company size: 10000+ employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically.

No incentive was offered Our company use it several years and it is go to for organization communication and task list for all. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros Still the best advanced "To-Do" dashboard with high overview of company progress and day to day tasks #### Cons Many great features are locked in payed version which are free in competitor apps and Ai features are not presented as beneficial. #### Reasons for switching to Asana Asana is better overal in understanding connection between daily work and long distance strategy. --- ### A for Awesome! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Misty K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, my experience with Asana has been very positive. It has helped me organize projects, manage deadlines, track responsibilities, and keep everyone on the same page. I especially like being able to see the full picture of a project without digging through emails, text messages, handwritten notes, and whatever random place someone decided to save the information. It has made managing multiple projects much easier and has helped our team become more organized and accountable. It is not perfect, and it cannot force people to actually complete their tasks, which is honestly rude, but it gives us the structure and tools we need to work more efficiently. When the team uses it consistently, Asana is extremely valuable. It keeps work visible, reduces confusion, and makes it much harder for important tasks to quietly disappear into the void. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros What I like most about Asana is that it gives me one place to organize projects, assign tasks, set deadlines, add notes, attach documents, and track progress. I can see what is moving forward, what is stuck, and what has apparently been abandoned and left to die. It is also flexible enough to work for different types of projects. I can use lists, boards, timelines, calendars, recurring tasks, and templates depending on what I am working on. It helps keep the team accountable without requiring me to chase everyone down all day asking for updates. Asana has definitely improved productivity and communication because everyone can see the same information in real time. When used correctly, it reduces confusion and keeps projects from living in someone’s inbox, notebook, or memory. #### Cons The biggest downside is that Asana is only as good as the people using it. If team members do not update their tasks, check notifications, or actually mark things complete, then it quickly becomes a very organized record of everything nobody is doing. It can also become overwhelming if there are too many projects, notifications, subtasks, and due dates flying around. Without clear rules for how the team should use it, things can get cluttered fast. Some of the best features are only available on paid plans, and costs can add up as the team grows. There are also times when setting up automations, permissions, or more complicated workflows feels like it should be easier than it is. #### Reasons for switching to Asana Cost was the biggest cause, second it that Asana is easier to navigate. --- ### Asana Turns Tax Season Chaos into a Real-time Controlled and Auditable Workflow - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nita R. - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I appreciate how Asana manages over 1k concurrent engagement with dependencies and deadlines in one place. As a Tax Supervisor, I am able to summarize long email threads and auto-generate status reports via AI Agentic tools that reduce manual workflow. #### Cons If you are a serious business user don’t use the free plan - I don’t have any issues with the Advanced tier. #### Reasons for switching to Asana I switched to Asana from Wrike because it’s iOS mobile application had a sleek UI. --- ### Why Asana is the Best in Class for Workloads, Portfolios & Dashboards - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Dana J. - Industry: Financial Services - Company size: 1001-5000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Because client requests, task deadlines and customer feedback live in one place (Asana) Kanban boards, I save time since I don’t chase each scenario separately. #### Cons My current Financial Services organization has partnered with third-party system integrators and has a top-notch support team who deals with all systems issues. Therefore, they deal with bugs when we (users) detect them. Currently, Asana is flawless. #### Reasons for switching to Asana I felt like the Wrike mobile application had a poor UI compared to Asana. --- ### Great for Autonomous Strategic Accounts Notable Automation (ASANA) - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Stefan T. - Industry: Transportation/ Trucking/ Railroad - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I have spent a decade + with Asana when planning strategic accounts in my organization and I can confirm it is the backbone for PPM, resource management and project collaboration. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I am able to group all the key accounts, monitor their status and progress through portfolio boards in Asana - this is what I rank the best on my end. #### Cons Even though Asana demanded few integrations to access full CRM and ERP tools without switching apps, I don’t feel like there is another issue so far. #### Reasons for switching to Asana I switched to Asana because my organization management made the drastic change since Smartsheet had an outdated UI. --- ### The Only PM Tool Available with Team Collaboration Features = Asana - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Savinda P. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Financial Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros With project prioritization, business process management, remote work and task tracking happening concurrently, Asana allocates a faster way and a central dashboard to connect to all without getting lost along the way. #### Cons I really wish that I could automate repetitive accounting and invoicing processes without integrating Asana with external tools such as QBO. #### Reasons for switching to Asana I switched to Asana because I couldn’t track many projects and goals at the same time in Trello due to poor OKRs features. --- ### I Have Used Asana Across Four Different Organizations and I can Confirm it is the Real OG for PPM - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Maggie D. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Leisure, Travel & Tourism - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I appreciate that Asana offers an extended range of tools ranging from project management, project collaboration, remote work, digital workplace, marketing planning, etc under one central dashboard. #### Cons I was introduced to Asana by a colleague from my previous organization in 2024 as a Contract Admin, and ever since I have never failed to accomplish my needs due to a bug or complications customizing features. #### Reasons for switching to Asana I switched to Asana because Jira relied on Confluence integration to enhance team messaging due to lack of built-in instant messaging & chat capabilities. --- ### Looking for a Robust PPM System and Don’t Know Where to Start? Consider my 4 Years Asana Experience Below - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Mark G. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Automotive - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Asana streamlines project portfolio management, resource planning + management and project collaboration in one central hub. #### Cons For the past four years, I have never come across challenges while utilizing Asana to enhance PPM, RM, PC and file sharing. #### Reasons for switching to Asana I switched to Asana because Smartsheet has an outdated UI. --- ### I love asana! - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jordan C. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. I absolutely love asana. Like every software, it has its strengths and weaknesses. Overall, I love the UI/UX, the ease of use, and increased productivity. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 3/5 - Customer support: 3/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love the ability to customize to my teams precise use case. I created custom fields combined with custom rules for our own internal approval process. This has really helped us to track our QA process. Our management and leadership team also loves having the portfolio view of projects. This way we can have a high level view of our project stats. #### Cons I wish that the native "my tasks" board, would have the same exact functionalities as a project. Due to this, I actually don't use the "my tasks" section so much. I actually created a separate board that all of the tasks assigned to me go to. And thats what I use to track my tasks. #### Reasons for choosing Asana Because of the price, UI, and customizable features. I needed something that I could easily onboard new team members to. #### Reasons for switching to Asana simpler to use asana, more features, visually easier to navigate --- ### Asana = PM Standard - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Verified Reviewer - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used weekly for more than 2 years - Reviewed: July 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall, I think that Asana is a really good productivity tool for us. My agency managed a team of 35 with multiple service departments out of Asana, and it made things really clean and easy to use. Their time tracking features, however, are kind of lacking, so we ended up using other tools in conjunction with that. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros As far as project management software goes, Asana is a pretty good one. I think that it's relatively affordable, meaning that it has a lot of value. It's also very easy to use, and a lot of the basic features out of the box, such as automated tasks, recurring tasks, multiple project views, etc., are very helpful. I also really like the customized and saved views and filters, as in manager, to be able to track others' tasks and progress as well in an easy manner. #### Cons I think that sometimes it's easy to get confused within Asana. Also, I will say the search feature is not very good, so if you're looking for a task, it can be very difficult to find, especially if it's completed. The overall search feature not working well can mean you have to be very, very organized. #### Reasons for switching to Asana Teamwork was getting very expensive and was not meeting the team's needs. Overall usage was pretty low. --- ### My Best Business Tool - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nicola R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Human Resources - Company size: Self-Employed - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. To me, it is just so simple to use. I find it easy to set projects up, and tasks and I love the reminder emails so I don't miss anything. I love that my clients can message via this tool. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love Asana and find it so easy to follow my VA clients' tasks on this system. It is a great tracking tool and allows us to message each other and pick up in a time that suits us. It means I don't lose sight of tasks and I get reminders daily. #### Cons I would like to see Asana develop its use of AI better and suggest ways to make work smoother. But other than that, this is by far my favourite tool to use. #### Reasons for switching to Asana Clients were already using this and so I needed to fit with their needs. --- ### Excellent Project Management Tool for Teams - Overall rating: 4/5 - Reviewer: Issam L. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used weekly for less than 12 months - Reviewed: May 2026 - Review source details: This review was submitted organically. No incentive was offered Overall, Asana has greatly improved our team collaboration and project management. It keeps everyone on the same page and helps us meet deadlines effectively #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros It is very easy to organize daily tasks and track project progress with my team. The interface is clean and helps improve productivity #### Cons The mobile application can be a bit slow sometimes, and it takes time for desktop updatesand the interface can be overwhelming for new users at first #### Reasons for switching to Asana We needed a more advanced platform with better workflow automation and clearer timeline views for tracking project milestones --- ### A Powerful Platform When Set Up the Right Way - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Nic H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Information Technology and Services - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 12 months - Reviewed: August 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall I think Asana is an extremely valuable platform, its all about setting it up the right way to get the most value out of it. I have found it fairly easy to learn & use as someone with no background in technology. Asana is a wonderful tool for getting work done without becoming siloed & ensuring information can be surfaced and reported on easily as long as it is set up correctly. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 4/5 #### Pros The flexibility of the platform! multi homing is an absolute game changer in reducing siloed information while still giving everyone the views & ways or working that they need. It gives leaders a way to track the work being done and workers the ability to see and prioritize their work. The reporting capabilities driven by custom fields are amazing, and the ability to integrate AI and Script actions really cuts a lot of manual effort. #### Cons Reference & look up fields need more capabilities withing rules and reporting, especially with tables coming soon. I think some of the connectors (with calendars especially) would benefit from becoming more or a two way connector so information can flow both ways, rather than just one way. Teammates are still fairly hard to work with, they take a lot of training to be able to rely on them consistently and when asked to produce documents I have found they take a lot of training to even get close to the quality of what a project in Claude or ChatGPT can produce in one try. --- ### Keeping Non-Profit Finances on Track with Asana - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Karen K. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Non-Profit Organization Management - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Asana has made it easier for me to keep financial activities structured while coordinating with program and administrative teams. It gives me better visibility into deadlines and responsibilities, which is particularly useful when working with limited resources in a non-profit environment. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Asana gives me a clear way to organize budgeting tasks, expense approvals, reporting deadlines, and finance-related projects without losing track of what needs attention. I especially like being able to assign responsibilities and monitor progress across different teams. #### Cons It can take some time to set up the right workflow when financial tasks involve several approval stages, and the number of project options can feel like more than I need for simple accounting work. --- ### DoF Asana Filled Survey in 2026 - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Abdi A. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Sports - Company size: 501-1000 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I find it easy to plan, track and manage sports and instructions tasks and projects automatically with Asana - this is the biggest win ever on my end as a Director of Operations. #### Cons Thanks for asking, but I do not experience any issues when planning, tracking and managing tasks at the moment. --- ### Asana is the Operational Backbone for Non-Billable Work that Drives Billable Adaptive Work - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Emily M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Construction - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. With the Advanced plan that I am using, I am able to track time spent on projects without integrating with external APIs and applications. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros There’s no need of manual micromanaging since Asana allocates portfolios, timelines and workloads that allow me to see projects, bottlenecks and who is overloaded and who’s not under one dashboard. #### Cons Need I say something really? Asana accomplishes all my daily business services project and task management needs. --- ### What I Know ‘bout Asana in 2026 - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kylie R. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Online Media - Company size: 2-10 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros How it is seamlessly easy to reduce manual handoffs when assigning tasks into the QA lead via workflow automation is what I give double thumbs up ‘bout Asana. #### Cons All has been super flawless while planning, tracking and managing projects with Asana: I can’t really complain. --- ### HR Business Process Management Streamlined for 24/7 by Asana - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Marloes H. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros For nearly a decade now, Asana has remained the backbone of PPM in all the current and past organizations I have worked for. I like that it facilitates over 90% of adaptive work management features without external integrations. #### Cons I have not experienced any drawbacks or downtime for the past few years while using Asana to automate workflow. --- ### Are You Looking for a Reliable PPM Tool? Contemplate my 5 Years Experience Below Prior to Purchase - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Timo Y. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Management Consulting - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: October 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I incorporated Asana in 2021 and I like how the vendor has continued to add new features. The AI Agentic Assistants are what I like most since they saves time when planning, tracking and managing tasks by eradicating manual workflow. #### Cons With Asana, I am able to accomplish all my project portfolio management requirements without swapping apps. --- ### Asana is overall great but I hate how many emails it sends me - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Jonah S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Computer Software - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: September 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. This product is solving the problem of my boss asking me what the status of the design project is via messaging. We were losing track of who was doing what, and ultimately, people would forget their part(s). Essentially, you just dump all ideas onto a project board and drag them around until they are finished. Asana provides us with a place to put files and comments right next to the actual task instead of digging through old email threads. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Asana combines all our upcoming project deadlines into an actual list so I don't have to try and remember what's due tomorrow and also the timeline view is really a Gantt chart (and its fine) but it works well enough for seeing what comes first. I think setting up dependency in a task is good for stopping people from trying to start step three when they haven't completed step one. My "W" key is sticky and it's killing me, slowly. It's nice being able to see who is responsible for each task and just let them be. #### Cons The free version is OK, but once I need to utilize the Portfolio feature then I'm paying a lot of money to go to the next level (Advanced). You can only assign one individual per task; which is completely idiotic if you're going to assign two individuals to complete the same work. Subtasks fall off the radar of the main project view and get lost in space. My laptop is burning my legs. If you don't shut-off your email notification option immediately after using the tool...it will send you multiple emails for every single comment someone makes regarding a task. --- ### Asana helps reign in task planning and management. - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: jawad m. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Higher Education - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: June 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Overall, our experience with Asana has been everything we ever hoped for when we were implementing it. We needed a tool to streamline our daily operations by helping us plan and manage our tasks effectively and Asana has given us just that. More to just planning our tasks, Asana has also made it easy for us to work collaboratively on our operations by giving us a very user-friendly and feature-loaded collaboration workspace. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 5/5 - Value for money: 5/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros Having a central tool for planning our daily tasks, managing our project resources and assigning tasks has helped us improve our productivity all thanks to Asana. Asana makes it easy to manage our operations by giving us very effective work management features which help us to streamline all our tasks. Working together with my teammates on our operations has been easy with the Asana digital collaboration workspace that allows us to engage each other abd share information easily during operations. Asana also helps us to easily track and monitor the flow of our tasks at each stage, allowing us to make sure that we are following our work plans accordingly. #### Cons Working with Asana has been very easy and flawless since day one. It has a simple interface that allowed us to adopt it quickly even without any much training needed. --- ### Lose the Sticky Notes - Asana's Got Your Back - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kristopher S. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Education Management - Company size: 51-200 employees - Product usage: Used daily for less than 2 years - Reviewed: April 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by us to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. Asana keeps me organized in an online space, something that is worth its weight in gold because my company is all about efficiency. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros As a progress-based individual, a to-do list is a great way to keep me motivated. I can also be forgetful at times, and the to-do list on Asana is an easy way to remind me on a daily basis without filling my computer with sticky notes that would clutter my workspace. I like that I can receive notifications on a daily basis or easily check the app on my phone to see if I've forgotten about a time-sensitive task at any point in time. More often than not, I check my to-do list for the next day to know how to mentally prepare myself for my workload. My other favorite part of Asana is its collaborative functions. For example, a group project, a task you assign to someone else, or a project assigned by a manager can easily be tracked for completion. It keeps everyone involved up-to-date in an online workspace that can otherwise lack effective communication at times. #### Cons The most pertinent con to me in using Asana is if/when someone forgets to put a due-date on something. You might totally forget about this task because, although there's a button for "no due date" tasks, Asana does not direct you to check these *just in case* you need to check them. I suggest an occasional pop-up that says, "You have tasks with no due-date that you haven't looked at in a while!" It can get real complex real quick. Some of the functions I don't use because I don't understand them and I'm afraid I'll do it wrong. For example, I do not create projects for my team to collaborate on. However, if I learned it, I'm sure it would be quite useful. Being on the receiving-end of these projects, it's been pretty good, a 4/5 I'd say. Ultimately, it can still be like learning the quirks of a new computer in the sense that you have to know where to look to find your project and shared tasks that might not automatically pop up on your task calendar. --- ### Fan from one job to the next - Overall rating: 5/5 - Reviewer: Kristin M. - Verified reviewer: Yes - Industry: Marketing and Advertising - Company size: 11-50 employees - Product usage: Used daily for more than 2 years - Reviewed: August 2026 - Review source details: This reviewer was invited by the software vendor to submit an honest review and offered a nominal incentive as a thank you. #### Ratings breakdown - Ease of use: 4/5 - Value for money: 4/5 - Customer support: 5/5 - Functionality: 5/5 #### Pros I love how responsive the help/support team are, especially as a member of the Ambassadors program. It helps enhance my work so that I can better support my teams. I recently moved from one job to another and the support team made it so easy to seamlessly transfer my certifications and account permissions to my new work email; it has been a boon as I have been hired on as part of an organizational shift to using Asana from another PM software. Between this and our Asana client training lead, I am looking forward to helping this new team enhance existing workflows and get even more work to the finish line without losing any steps along the way! #### Cons The learning curve can be a bit steep if you try to jump in with automations and rules too quickly. Take your time to build something great. ## More reviews [Next reviews](https://www.softwareadvice.com/project-management/asana-profile/reviews/?page=2) --- Asana Reviews, Pros and Cons - 2026 Software Advice
