Asana Reviews & Product Details

I appreciate being able to add my own custom fields and tags, which work well together. It's simple to set up workflows that minimize the need to recreate tasks or manually mark them as 'completed.' The customizable forms are also excellent, making it easy to add new tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Exporting information from projects can be quite a hassle. I use this tool to keep track of OHS items and meeting minutes, but when I export the data as a CSV file, I still need to manually adjust it to make it more legible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a Marketing Manager juggling multiple campaigns, content calendars, and cross-departmental collaborations, Asana has become the central hub that keeps everything on track. After years of using various project management tools, I can confidently say that Asana strikes the ideal balance between structure and flexibility, empowering both strategic planning and daily execution.

Asana’s project templates and timeline views are invaluable for marketing campaigns. I can map out every phase—from creative concepting and content creation to launch and reporting—within a single workspace. Dependencies make it easy to visualize how a single delay affects the overall timeline, ensuring no step is overlooked. The ability to toggle between List, Board, Timeline, and Calendar views allows me to plan strategically while my team manages their individual tasks in whichever format suits them best.

The My Tasks dashboard is my daily command center. It provides a clear breakdown of what's due today, what's upcoming, and what's waiting on others. I love that recurring tasks automatically populate (like weekly reporting or social post scheduling), which keeps routine workflows seamless. Custom fields also help us track campaign stages, asset types, and content approvals—no more guessing where things stand.

What sets Asana apart is how it eliminates endless email threads and chat clutter. Each task becomes its own micro-workspace with assigned owners, subtasks, comments, and attachments. Tagging team members keeps communication contextual, while integrations with tools like Slack, Google Drive, and Adobe Creative Cloud make collaboration effortless. I can review a design, give feedback, and move the task to the next stage all within Asana—no back-and-forth needed.

As a manager, I rely heavily on Dashboards and Reporting to monitor campaign health. The ability to create custom charts showing progress, workload, and deadlines helps me keep leadership informed without manually compiling data. The workload view has also been a game changer for resource allocation—it’s easy to see who’s overloaded and redistribute tasks before burnout sets in.

Asana isn’t just a project management tool—it’s the backbone of my marketing operations. It provides visibility across teams, accountability for every task, and the flexibility to adapt as priorities shift. Whether I’m coordinating a nationwide campaign or managing day-to-day creative requests, Asana ensures nothing falls through the cracks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

For new users, Asana’s feature set can feel a bit overwhelming. However, once the structure is established, especially with thoughtful naming conventions and templates, it becomes intuitive and highly scalable. The mobile app is excellent for on-the-go updates and quick check-ins during meetings or site visits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really appreciate how this tool allows me to work seamlessly across different projects, manage my own to-do lists, and help both myself and others stay on track with our deliverables. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't dislike anything! I think the platform is evolving and always improving. I appreciate all the new AI tools that allow us to set up workflows that make even more of our project tasks automated. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As someone who is deeply involved in driving strategic projects at BCH Electric, I have found that ASANA has truly transformed the way I work.

What I appreciate most is the AI-powered efficiency. The smart suggestions and task automation features save me hours every week, making it feel as though I have a digital co-pilot anticipating my next move. The structured documentation is another standout aspect—every project, task, and conversation is organized in one place, eliminating the need to chase updates across emails or chats. Everything is easy to find and track.

Managing workflows is also straightforward, especially with the ability to create custom rules. ASANA brings clarity and fosters collaboration, ensuring that cross-functional dependencies and stakeholder timelines are visible so every contributor remains aligned and accountable. The customer support is excellent, with ASANA partners always ready to help. Using the tool daily has made my entire workflow much smoother. Integration and implementation are consistently quick and easy as well.

For anyone managing multiple projects, deadlines, or teams, I highly recommend incorporating ASANA into your workflow. It’s more than just a tracker—it’s a true strategic enabler. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

A few challenges still impact the overall experience. The frequent need to create customized projects, particularly when uploading large amounts of data through files, can become quite tedious. Additionally, the rules and filters available often do not adequately support complex workflows or the specific needs of different teams. Handling bulk data is also less seamless than expected and does not offer the flexibility required for enterprise-level operations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our whole team is on it, so it is a way to track our histories. I also think the AI is helpful in identifying where the unread notifications are or if there are comments that you still need to respond to. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My team is really struggling to get the most out of this and I think it is partially because someone set it up wrong. But we are having to use the same workflows for creative and non creative use and there are so many different needs for each of those different marketing functions. Our team is set up like a project and its just bad. It is difficult to track stuff and I actually think we've over complicated the whole deal.

Also, the worst part is we have a ton of automations running and I get a notification about every single one. Those updates are treated like a comment tagging you so you cant filter them out without losing highly valuable notifications. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Asana has become our team’s go-to space for getting things done. I love how visual and flexible it is — whether it’s managing sprint boards, planning campaigns, or tracking deliverables, everything just flows. The ability to switch between board, list, and timeline views helps everyone work the way they prefer. The little things, like task dependencies, automation rules, and reminders, really take the pressure off remembering everything manually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can feel a bit heavy when we have massive projects with tons of subtasks — sometimes it lags a little. I also wish the reporting dashboards were more customizable for quick leadership insights. But honestly, these are minor compared to how much clarity it brings to our daily work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

From a supervisor's standpoint, it is an easy way to see the progress of tasks or projects. It also allows you to see who is completing their assigned tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our intent was to have the ability to create a team within Asana, post projects and tasks, and that way everyone can see who is doing what and where they're at in the process. Unfortunately, if you don't tag each team member individually for each udpate or comment, the entire team cannot see it.

Also, I have one department that has two coordinators. I cannot assign a project to both team members. You can only assign one person. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The software is very flexible and intuitive Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I’ve had the worst customer care and experience of my 15 year career. I liked the look of the platform, so I wanted to pay for 1 month on the lowest tier to give it a shot. I selected that, but at point of purchase something clearly went wrong. I was charged 75£ and put on some kind of legacy package which wasn’t explained to me. Not only was I charged this large amount, I was still unable to use most of the features I wanted to try because I was stuck behind a paywall, even despite the large payment.

I reached out to the support team who said there was nothing they could do because of Asana policy. I feel like I was conned or misguided into purchasing something I didn’t need, and barely even works. The best they could offer was two months free. - something that is useless to me given that I will definitely never be using Asana after the experience I’ve had so far.

I accepted the two free months because, why not? But then two weeks later, I was charged another £30! I reached out to the support team and they said they couldn’t do anything about that either.

I feel like I have been robbed and I’m genuinely considering starting a legal process. Not because I’m furious, which I am, but because this sort of practice is practically theft.

I enjoyed the product for the 1 day I was using it, but the rest has been diabolical. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love how Asana brings clarity to chaos. It makes it so much easier to keep everyone on the same page, celebrate progress, and spot roadblocks early. Plus, it’s intuitive enough that even non-techy teammates can jump right in — which is huge for collaboration. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

My only real challenge with Asana is that it can get cluttered fast if everyone isn’t using it the same way. When the team is aligned on process, it’s magic — but it definitely takes intentional setup and maintenance to keep everything feeling clear and manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Asana makes it very easy to keep track of tasks and deadlines. The interface is clean and user friendly, so assigning tasks and monitoring progress is smooth. I like that it integrates well with tools like Slack and Google Drive, which saves time. The timeline and Gantt chart features are very useful for project managers, they help in visualising the entire workflow clearly. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

When I first started using Asana, there was no clear introduction or walkthrough about how to use it or how to toggle between different projects, which made the learning curve a bit tricky. It does get simpler with time, but some onboarding guidance would really help new users. Another thing that bothers me is the notifications—when someone comments on ongoing projects, I get alerts on the app (which is fine), but I also get duplicate notifications in Gmail, which feels unnecessary and a bit annoying.
