    We are using the free version with 4 users and it's fantastic when we use it. Of course, we had to update it ourselves but when we all are onboard, it's a great resource. It's so easy to drag, drop, use bullet points, and keep track, we love it!

    Pros

    The free price for our small group and ease of use. The fact that it emails updates along with handy charts and percentages of the stuff you are accomplishing is great for task lists.

    Cons

    I can't think of anything for the things we were using it for.

    I mainly use Asana to collaborate with my marketing team on big and small tasks. We add comments and suggestions to each other's tasks and manage a project collaboratively. I also use it to maintain my personal content calendar.

    Pros

    I love the feature of letting me make subtasks within a big task. I used to use HubSport for managing my marketing projects and now I use Asana to keep myself on track with what's coming up and keep myself on track.

    Also, for fun, on completing the tasks I love to see the cute unicorns coming over on my dashboard that makes me happy.

    Cons

    Your entire team should be able to use this software, if not, it becomes difficult for you to keep a track on their progress and add comments to their tasks.

    Since using Asana, communication regarding specific topics and projects have been more efficient and way less confusing, I would definitely recommend for anyone looking to organize and keep a cohesive timeline of specific conversations.

    Pros

    What i love most about this software is the ability to separate every conversation by task...especially working in the fashion industry, production, design, shipping all broken down into sub-genres - its like breaking down every topic into to-do list.

    Cons

    Honest I cant think of a downside, if you aren't a fan of organization and simplicity, perhaps this isn't for you, for the rest of us...its perfect!

    Pros

    In a remote workplace this tool has been implememted by one of clients. I find it very useful in multi tasking and coordinating duties designated to me specifically. Before using Asana there were instant messages sent back and forth and vital information was missed. Now we are current on everything and we are getting assigned tasks finished in a timely fashion. It took me a bit to get used to but once I used it consistently it works well.

    Cons

    There should be a chat option which would be very beneficial. It does not integrate with my email calendar. There are a lot of tutorials which are very time consuming.

    My work is very dynamic in nature. I can plan my day the night before, but by 9 AM it may be completely changed by customer demands. I needed a tool that could respond and keep up with that kind of "planning." A tool that just allows you to push tasks around on a calendar is somewhat useful, but Asana goes further. Based on your setup, Asana will bring to the fore your most important things to do right now. Very helpful when juggling competing priorities.

    Pros

    The free level has enough of the core functionality to do what I need. Best thing is the ability to see the grand scale project view and drill down to daily task list. Not only see, but easily revise and adjust assignments, due dates, etc. Visual and textual users will both be pleased with the number of different project views. Asana is dynamic enough that you can decide how you want to architect your projects and how you want to use it as you move through.

    The mobile app and web app both update in real time when you or other team members add and edit projects, tasks, assignments, and dates. The mobile app is not slow to load or use like some other task management apps I have tried.

    Cons

    I truly can't think of anything I don't like about Asana at this point. I'm only a month into it, and still discovering new ways to apply it to real life.

    Pros

    Thanks to Asana, I managed to minimize the work with paper lists and various reminders. Now I can quickly and easily create task lists, assign performers, monitor work performance. It is also convenient that tasks and notes can be created separately for each project - this helps to keep all projects in order.

    Cons

    I do not like that the application can not specify which task will be the main one, and which one is secondary. Therefore, I have to create separate notes and reminders for my team members about what kind of work they should do first.

    Pros

    Asana has most of all the features one could expect with project management: tasks/subtasks, commenting/following, deadlines, Gantt charts, multiple projects and multiple teams. Some of those features are newer (and were necessary), but at this point, it has everything necessary to coordinate small-medium sized projects. We haven't tried it with very very large projects yet.

    Cons

    Because it's very generic, it's up to teams to either squeeze their workflow into what Asana has, or for teams to create a workflow around what Asana can do. There's not too much guidance here around "best practices" but it's fairly straightforward to figure out the right workflow through trial and error.

    Pros

    The main feature of Asana, which I especially like is the ability to create and save job templates. This is convenient, since it happens that I give practically the same tasks to different specialists or the tasks simply repeat themselves after a while. The system is simple and convenient to use, and this applies to versions for mobile devices. The demo version of this application is absolutely free, and therefore you can evaluate the functionality without any expense.

    Cons

    I do not like how the reporting is organized in Asana, as well as the restrictions on the number of users being entered in low-cost tariff plans.

    I really love Asana. It has proven to be a must use tool for many of the services we provide in our company.

    Pros

    It is a very fluid app. You can handle your projects and tasks in a very fluid way. The mobile app is a great companion.

    Cons

    You have to select the view you want to have. It doesn't detect the way you're handling the project.

    As our team has grown, it became clear that we needed a better system of organizing all of our projects. Asana does a good job of that, although if you're not careful, its very flexibility can become an issue.

    Pros

    The easy integration with Google Drive and Dropbox is great, so whatever your team uses, Asana can connect with.

    Cons

    It can be a little tricky to keep all of the projects and subtasks organized. It's almost like the program gives everyone too much freedom to create projects, tasks, subtasks willy-nilly, which can be a problem if different people on the team like different organizational systems.
