Flexibel einsetzbar - für verschiedene Teams

Kommentare: Ich empfehle Asana jedem Team und Unternehmen (bes. Marketing und IT)

Vorteile:

Einfaches Set-up und onboarding, flexibler Einsatz je nach Projekt, Zusammenarbeit über Silos hinweg möglich

Nachteile:

Übersicht über Kommentare in verschiedenen Tasks fehlt

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: monday.com

Eine sehr benutzerfreundliche Software mit der umfangreiche Projekte geplant werden können!

Kommentare: Wir planen setzen auch umfangreiche Projekte mit Asana um, zuletzt bspw. die Einführung einer Mitarbeiter-App.

Vorteile:

Die Zuordnung von Verantwortlichkeiten. Steuerung des Timings.

Nachteile:

Es hat ein wenig gedauert bis ich alle Funktionalitäten gefunden und angewendet habe.

Für mich eine Betrugsmasche

Kommentare: Wer mit 13,49 Euro pro Monat wirbt und dann unautorisiert über 80 Euro monatlich abbucht und nicht erstattet, ist für mich ein Betrüger

Vorteile:

Mir gefällt an der Software Garnichts mehr

Nachteile:

Der Premiumaccount wird mit monatlich 13,49 Euro beworben, nach dem Abschluss kommt eine Email, die offenbar absichtlich keinen Betrag enthält. Dann das böse Erwachen, erst werden 67,45 Euro abgebucht und dann 80,27 Euro pro Monat, statt der 13,49 Euro und bei Reklamation heisst es, man hätte irgendwas mit 5 Mitgliedern ausgewählt, was definitiv nicht der Fall war. Entweder war das so versteckt, dass man es nicht gesehen hat oder anderweitig auf betrügerische Art untergejubelt. Unfassbar. Rückbuchung über die Bank beantragt, Anzeige wegen Betrug in Vorbereitung. Besser Finger weg von Asana!

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Trello

Im Verkauf super Support sehr schlecht

Kommentare: Im Verkauf super Support sehr schlecht

Vorteile:

Die collaboration mit dem tool ist gut.

Nachteile:

Der Support ist unterirdisch. Bekommt Dokus zugesandt aber leider keinen qualifizierten Support wenn man nicht weiterkommt. Geht man über den Vertrieb heißt es nur das es Dokus gibt.Vor dem Verkauf war die Betreuung gut nach dem Kauf interessiert es keinen.

Tolles Produkt für einfache und schnelle Projektplanung oder zur Strukturierung langer to do Listen

Vorteile:

die persönliche und zeitliche Zuteilung verschiedener Aufgaben ist schnell und leicht erledigt

Nachteile:

die Einarbeitung in alle Anwendungsmöglichkeiten hat etwas gedauert; teure Spielerei für unsere Bedürfnisse und finanziellen Möglichkeiten

Asana zur Meilensteinplanung und -Verfolgung

Vorteile:

Übersichtlich, gute Usability und „farbenfroh“. Zuweisung von Mitarbeitenden zu Projekten ist sehr einfach vorzunehmen. Deadlines ebenfalls leicht einsehbar und nachvollziehbar.

Nachteile:

Die Integrationen zu nutzen zb für Kalender ist erstmalig etwas aufwendig/müßig

Best Project Management Software -Asana

Vorteile:

Real-time collaboration and communication with team members are best facilities. Effective project management system is another thing which I like most.

Nachteile:

Price is slightly higher than other software on the category.

Very handy project management software for SMBs

Kommentare: I love using Asana to manage my business. We literally have everything we're planning to do on there. From stuff like sourcing and logistics, to marketing, we use it to manage our projects in various areas of our work. It's intuitive and easy to set up, and it's got a lot of features for small businesses to log and plan their projects. Would definitely recommend overall.

Vorteile:

I love how you can use it even as a very small company. A lot of the other project management tools we evaluated were either only for large companies or had really low usage limits. Whereas with Asana, we can get all the stuff we want done, and more, without having to jump up three plans in the process. It's also very easy to implement and learn how to use in the beginning

Nachteile:

Nothing sticks out that much, we get the odd bug or issue here and there but it works great almost all the time

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Jira und monday.com

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: Asana looked much more suited to small-scale use, whereas the other two had harsh usage limits that would've made it a bit costly for us to use properly.

Fine, mostly

Kommentare: It does what it does 'fine', it wouldn't be so widespread and one of the go to options if it didn't, however, it suffers from what any product like this does, and is that you can end up spending more time scheduling and rescheduling the workload than actually completing the work if you're not careful

Vorteile:

Fairly well known so good chance new hires come with a basic level of understanding from previous employment, not a massively high barrier to entry to get started with the basics, but some more advanced features are a little esoteric.

Nachteile:

Support's ropey and integration seems to be harder work than it needs be, documentation can be outdated, misleading and straight up wrong in some instances. Missing some fairly obvious features that're repeatedly requested in the support forum but instead we get something kind of random and mostly useless that I guess a big client paid for and they've rolled it out to everyone to make it look like ongoing development is there regardless of effectiveness whilst ignoring community demand for things that'd be actually useful to a wider base.

Awesome software but we couldn't get people to adopt it.

Kommentare: It's a great piece of software and in another organisation I think I could have happily adopted it. However, it wasn't the right fit for our organisation or our users.

Vorteile:

Asana's free plan is very generous, and would have covered our main needs. Their commercial pricing is also fair and provides good value for money. As an organisation, we work across multiple offices and countries and good project management was always a bit of a gap. I was very enthusiastic about Asana and loved the depth of features, particular the granular tracking, and the good integration with external tools (we have worked hard to try and connect our workflows together). The ability to communicate at multiple levels within projects was also something I found very appealing.We spent quite a bit of time setting up projects as part of the testing process, and I enjoyed the ability to do it properly (compared to the very complicated set of google sheets we had been using prior to this)

Nachteile:

The biggest gap we found was that for users not steeped in project management or project management tools the learning curve was too high. They either used it superficially, or avoided using it all. It was not a criticism of the software per se, as the UI is well-thought out and there are lots of support resources. However for an organisation like ours, we needed something far simpler for our users, as technological resistance is always a challenge. WE may not have used it to it's full extent, but it would have been useful to have the ability to simplify some of the viewsm as not all users needed or wanted the depths of controls presented to them. I also found the reporting slightly frustrating. It wasn't actually a core feature we needed, but the reports that did exist were sometimes frustratingly incomplete.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Time Doctor, Trello und Slack

Warum Asana gewählt wurde: We needed better tracking and oversight of projects.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Google Sheets

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: We ended up going with Trello rather than Asana due to the simpler learning curve and the ability to use it at multiple elvels.

LOVE Asana

Kommentare: Overall, Asana is INCREDIBLE. I love the ease of everything. Once it's set up, it requires very little maintenance. I've used Asana as a CRM, ATS, Marketing Management system, project manager, employee management, etc. It's amazing to automate tasks and for project management. It's great to implement in companies (as long as they're willing and open to using it). Highly recommend.

Vorteile:

I am personally a big fan of Asana. My previous employer used Slack, and I hated it - it seemed clunky and hard to find things. I did a lot of research to find a better system for files, organization, project management, etc. I found Asana and fell in love. It's very similar to Monday.com. Templates are provided to make it easier to set up. There is a brief learning curve, but it's pretty easy. If you're super tech-savvy, then it takes time to set up exactly how you want, but once you do, then it's minimal maintenance. You can even automate tasks and have it integrated with other apps that you use! I love the sleek look of Asana and the overall ease. It's saved me so much time and helped keep me organized.

Nachteile:

Only a few things that I'm not a big fan of. If you have a big team, then it gets costly pretty quickly - it's $10 - $31/per user per month, depending on the plan. Another thing is that it does take some time to set up IF you are very particular and want to automate a lot of tasks and projects. There are not many cons, considering most project management software takes time to set up and can be costly.

Good things can also be free

Kommentare: Asana is one of the best alternatives that can currently be found in the project manager category when looking for a solution as a small or medium-sized business. It has everything you need, a large number of integrations, an excellent free tier, and paid plans that are within the reach of any small business. The user interface is simple and intuitive, so anyone, whether or not they have experience with this type of application, will feel comfortable navigating the options available to them.

Vorteile:

Asana is a project management application that manages to delight its users with a free tier that shows all the features that any small business could need. Of course, after enjoying its simple and intuitive user interface and finding Asana an excellent tool for managing tasks and projects, both alone and in a team, the next step is the payment layer, where Asana also helps us, presenting low-cost options that do not suffocate small businesses.

Nachteile:

One of the problems, not only with Asana but with almost all project managers, is that many of the main options are diluted among the sea of possibilities they offer. For users who are new to using this type of application, this can cause stress and end up making their work less efficient. Of course, this is not just an issue for Asana; it is for almost all applications in this category; they want to do everything because the projects are usually complex, and the user who use them are very diverse.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Jira, Basecamp, monday.com, ClickUp und Hive

Warum Asana gewählt wurde: I didn't like the user interface, it felt old. Despite using it for several years, and also having a good free tier and low-cost payment options, I ended up looking for a more modern option.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Freedcamp

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: The excellent free tier, the premium trial without card entry and the paid tier with affordable plans.

Asana Overview in helping NGO`s manage their work

Kommentare: My overall experience with Asana has been very positive. It has transformed the way my team manages projects, improving our efficiency and communication. The ability to track progress, assign tasks, and set deadlines has made a significant difference in our productivity. Asana has become an indispensable part of our daily workflow.

Vorteile:

Asana's interface is incredibly user-friendly, making it a breeze to manage projects, tasks, and deadlines. The collaboration features are robust and allow for seamless teamwork. I also appreciate the customizability and the ability to create various project views, such as lists, boards, and timelines. The integration with other tools and applications is a big plus.

Nachteile:

The learning curve may be steep for some users who are new to project management software. It would be great to have more comprehensive reporting features and advanced task dependencies in the future.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Jira und Trello

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: We chose Asana over the alternatives primarily because of its user-friendly interface and the ability to create a variety of project views. While the other tools had their merits, Asana's ease of use and robust collaboration features were the deciding factors for us.

Absolutely Love Asana

Kommentare: Absolutely love it and would recommend it to anyone. Only switched to Avaza because it's very similar to Asana but has quotes / invoicing. I tried a dozen different project management systems before Avaza and none of them were as good.

Vorteile:

Simple to use and figure out. Isn't bloated with a bunch of other functions you'll never use. Has great integrations.

Nachteile:

Doesn't have built in estimates or invoicing capability

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Basecamp

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: Easy to use and onboard. Other project management systems were complicated, not intuitive, and had excess bloat.

One of the great tools for your Project

Vorteile:

The UI definitely gives you a very organized feeling and the confidence to get work done. I think the ease of use definitely puts it above notion or Click up.

Nachteile:

I think some features can definitely be added to asana. I think the pricing can also be reduced a bit to make it the most attractive tool out there.

Asana - Perfect tool for Project Management

Kommentare: Using Asana, it's easy to track progress and manage different tasks in projects. it has a good user interface to collaborate with the teams and notify them based on tasks.

Vorteile:

I like the most about Asana is we can easily collaborate with our team members and divide the tasks accordingly, so it is very easy to manage task and achieve project management efficiently. Another good thing I would say it's having very good user interface which supports drag and drop feature as well to move different tickets or tasks to different faces of project management. And it also integrates with many third party providers which makes our workflow very manageable.

Nachteile:

It offers limited task management features, if we have different deployment needs as per project like development, staging, testing etc., then there are no options of moving tasks to these options instead we can only change status of that task. And sometimes locating older tasks or tickets that someone else from the team worked on in the past can be challenging.

Best choice or good alternative

Kommentare: Good! Asana is not as difficult to get the hand out with. I did manage to set-up all my tasks and projects personally. Though, I haven't used it for a long time when I did tested Monday.com.

Vorteile:

I can bet in all of Asana's features from Task management, Scheduling, Materials management, Gantt Charts, Collaborations and the likes. Save for time tracking which is not (yet) available. The Free Pricing however, is generous enough to collaborate with up to 10 or 15 more individuals. Other top PMS has less to nothing - or just one user allowed.

Nachteile:

User Interface. Asana needs to improve on there user interface to be at par with Monday.com. I've been using Monday and never looked back (except maybe if someday they will overrun Monday with features. Time Tracking. This one matters for some users, specially freelancers and online nomads alike. Just wondering why this wasn't integrated just yet. Set-up. It wasn't that easy to get started for non-techie users. So patience a virtue. Though PMS are understandably complicated, Monday take the pie in this domain.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: monday.com

Warum Asana gewählt wurde: Well, upon company decision and me as consultant. Monday duly meets our startup company's needs and wants.

Zuvor genutzte Software: monday.com

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: I choose Asana the first time. But upon testing other PMS, it seems the other weighs more than Asana.

Keeping the Team on Task

Kommentare: Outstanding. My primary goal using Asana was to replace the traditional procedure manual with something more robust and dynamic. The ability to schedule, repeat, and assign tasks means I complete and and forget it and until I'm reminded on the next cycle. Everything I need is contained in the project.

Vorteile:

Easy to enter data and uploading of attachment to tasks. Very much appreciate the ability to have a conversation about the task in the task and not fill up my email. Customizable fields are a huge plus because I can track details and progress in a manner that meets my work style. Like the ability to drag and drop and colorize different things to make spotting what I'm looking for easier.

Nachteile:

Although you can add followers to tasks, inability to assign multiple team members to the same task without duplicating the tasks is frustrating. There several small user interface things I would improve about Asana. I wish the project list could own the entire left hand column instead of sharing with with other high level functions. Those could be moved to the top. Having to click "Show more Projects" to view the whole list is unnecessary.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: monday.com

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: We were already using the free version and had loaded up lots of information into the system. Switching to a different system with minimal differences would not be worth it. Different systems work differently, but they all accomplish roughly the same tasks. No significant benefits would be gained from making the change.

Good Startup Project Management Tool

Kommentare: It was a very good tool to use, highly user friendly, quite effective and very visually attractive. This tool is great for startups in my opinion and the price is fair for the features it has.

Vorteile:

I like how user friendly it is, the aesthetics (looks), it's very neat and colorful at the same time, it provides a good option for organization and I think it's a good tool for startups, it makes planning, task assignment, tracking and registering much easier.

Nachteile:

I think the software is amazing but it lacks some features seen on more robusts tools such as Zoho Projects, still, this tool can integrate with other small tools that can give you access to Gantt Charts or timelines, etc. The problem is you have to pay for those additional integrations.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: monday.com

Warum Asana gewählt wurde: Because Excel can work but it's easier to get human errors due to the tool manipulation, the Asana features allow you to have a better control over what's been planned, it sends you alerts and allow you to tag users, chat with them directly over a task or a file, attach files to a specific task or subtask, which you can''t easily do in Excel, and also user interface is much better in Asana.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Microsoft Excel

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: For the price and the features, when I tried the free version I felt much more comfortable with this tool than the others.

Best way to coordinate work between agile teams

Kommentare: Asana is one of those tools you can't live without when you add it to your workflow. It offers great capabilities to coordinate people and leave all decisions made about a topic in the same place. If everybody in your organization is using it, you can really leverage its power. Its beauty relays in its simplicity, you can't make fancy things such as track progress of a big project distributed between several teams, but you can use your imagination to go over these issues. The API will give you all the flexibility you need if you know how to code.

Vorteile:

- The ease of use of Asana is one of the best out there no matter the product. It's so easy to start creating task and discover what can you do with them it easily adjusts to your work flows, specially if you work with lots of people. - Everybody can edit tasks, this allows to use Asana as a hub for communicating everything related to a topic, tagging tasks and mentioning people so they get notified. - Hotkeys, I hate going back and forth between the keyboard and mouse (hate using touchpad), Asana provides hotkeys for almost everything you need to do, tab will be your magic key.

Nachteile:

Poor reporting. I work in agile projects and would like to see BurnUps and burn downs, be able to define sprints and reporting associated to the big picture. To do so, you have to manually create projects that act as sprints, you end up with lots of projects and lose the big picture. On the bright side, it provides an API, so I connected to it, and using tags I was able to create customized reporting. Expensive, its cost compare to world-class project management solutions, like Jira. I believe it's worth the money, but as a small company we couldn't afford it. (this was a year ago, before starting at Globant)

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Jira

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: Freemium model of Asana allowed my entire company (over 20 people) to work on the same tool without paying a cent. Its simplicity allowed everybody to use it, so change management would be a breeze (and it was).

Practical way to manage my daily task and project

Kommentare: Overall, Asana is one of the most complete Project Management that i ever tried and use. Increasing our effectiveness in planning and tracking a project progress is never a issue with Asana. Deploying a complex project is possible with the help of Kanban method to help us plan the project carefully with visual aid.

Vorteile:

I really like that my team and I can collaborate on project and task easily. The Gantt chart let us to planning a project effectively as we can visualized the activities that related with the project. Resource space has unlimited size that we can add to the project and view which project is dependable or assign to the resource.

Nachteile:

There are not much downside that i can thinking while operating this software. The feature is well build and really responsive with my need in completing my project and daily task. The only thing that i think that they should improve is the video tutorial, there are some of the feature that not covered by the video tutorial.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Trello

Warum Asana gewählt wurde: Wrike need too much integration to have a complete project management. Asana is a solution for all-in-one software.

Zuvor genutzte Software: Wrike

Asana is a great task management tool

Kommentare: I was awarded a small but important project for my department, as it could bring significant benefit to the business in the future if managed in an optimally way.
Instead of relying on the many rounds of emails that are exchanged between project managers and other people involved, I decided to simply proceed to create a project on Asana Basic.
The first time I used It.
This allowed us to keep track of everything that matters, giving us an overview of where we are going.
Asana allowed us to monitor the workflows on our teams and see the progress of the work at any time, saving endless updating meetings. Time we all know how crucial it is.

Vorteile:

- Asana's interface is extremely well designed, the best possible way for a fun and inviting user experience. I hope you enjoy using it as much as we enjoyed using it. - Asana is an excellent communication tool, it allows you to eliminate a lot of stress from disorganization in communicating with the team. Problems, requests for feedback, clarifications, questions, and suggestions, will all end up in the activities through the appropriate comment function. The only one allowed. - Trying Asana Basic, with a team of up to 15, for free, allowed me to work with three small teams, breaking down projects into manageable tasks and setting deadlines for completion. The ability to share documents between teams has also proved useful. -Asana Basic allowed us to download the app for iOS or Android devices to work and consult updates wherever we are, even offline. We like it.

Nachteile:

1. It was not easy to set up a project at the beginning, the learning curve is tough. In Asana, projects are containers that allow you to create one or more tasks within them. This is the furthest away from a Project Manager's concept of a project. 2. I found that having to start over every time I created a project, even when it was repeatable, was like wasting time. 3. In the free plan, you cannot create private projects, meaning that the project is visible and editable by every member of the team. 4. Asana organizes all resources horizontally, flattening their hierarchy. There are no different roles, just people and tasks. 5. The management of risk situations and the consequent negotiation between the resources involved in the project is not envisaged. 6. This is a very serious shortcoming, especially for those who work remotely. It is not possible to assign an hourly or daily cost to resources that are part of the team.

Asana- one of the best and simplest Task managment tools

Kommentare: Overall experience with asana is quite satisfactory as it delivers what it promises. I use it alongside other tools to manage daily tasks and project-related works. Its to-do list-like approach gives an easier way to create tasks and manage them easily. You just keep a tab open for it and keep on marking complete the tasks you have accomplished. It's that simple.

Vorteile:

The most beautiful and user-friendly thing in asana is its to-do list-like approach for managing tasks in each project. the whole project or a particular task out of it can be assigned to other users and team members. Another incredible thing is that you can divide a task into further sub-tasks to make it easier to use and track task progress.

Nachteile:

It goes toe to toe with Trello's similar set of tools. Trello card-like approach comes in handy in viewing all the tasks at hand in a glimpse as well as giving the ability to manage task queues. You can transfer tasks from one card to another. It also doesn't have enough tools for cost and time tracking for wages etc calculation.

In Betracht gezogene Alternativen: Trello

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Asana: Asana has a simple to-do list-like interface that makes it easier to create tasks on the go as well as mark them complete when done. No need to fill quite long forms for creating tasks. But it gives the ability to use extra fields in case you need those.
