Asana

Vantaggi

Asana è molto intuitivo, facile da imparare e da usare, ed ha una buona interfaccia anche da applicazione.
Permette di gestire liste di attività o di organizzarle in board, ed è ottima l'integrazione con google e la creazione di team di lavoro.

Inconvenienti

La versione gratuita ha molte limitazioni come funzinalità, e non si possono gestire team estesi. Le versioni a pagamento hanno costi per utente molto alti.

Una migliore efficienza e ottimizzazione del proprio lavoro. La struttura a task e subtask aiuta molto a organizzare al meglio le proprie giornate.

Vantaggi

L'organizzazione e la pianificazione del proprio lavoro è il punto di forza di Asana. Creare task, impostare delle date di scadenze, inserire dei subtask e assegnarli, ti consente di gestire al meglio il tempo e portare a termine progetti di vasta complessità.

Inconvenienti

La ricerca dei vari task e board non è granché e spesso si fa fatica a cercare nell'archivio dei task più vecchi.

Esperienza completamente positiva, lo consiglio a chiunque abbia difficoltà nell'organizzazione.

Vantaggi

Mi piace molto iniziare la mia giornata controllando la mia dashboard su Asana, mi aiuta ad essere più produttivo e a procrastinare meno nel lavoro.

Inconvenienti

L'unica pecca è il prezzo che secondo me potrebbe essere più competitivo, per quanto riguarda la funzionalità credo che non gli si possa dire nulla.

I started using this software at a previous job then, when starting here, quickly found out that not all task-management tools are created equal. The one we were using was not very functional and people tasks were constantly getting lost in the shuffle.

The other website designer that started after me had also used Asana before so we started using it to manage the development of the site we were designing. We told another team about it and they started using it as well. It eventually caught on and we convinced the higher-ups to purchase an upgraded plan and implemented it company wide.

There are so many great features. It's impossible to narrow down my favorite. But I will say that it makes managing tasks so easy and helps my addled brain stay organized and focused. There are different modes for how you view your tasks allowing users to choose one that they prefer. For example, there's a calendar view, a list view, a Trello-type layout, and more. I also LOVE that it's offers so much flexibility in how tasks are organized. You can set up different teams and assign certain people to be in those teams. Within the teams you can create projects, then breaks those down into tasks. Within the teams you can create multiple levels of subtasks - for example, a subtasks inside a subtasks inside the main task. This is a really great feature for me, being a website designer, because there are so many steps involved in creating a site.

Vantaggi

What's not to like?! The customer service is great, there are multiple training videos to help you learn about all the different features and how to use them, it's GREAT for staying organized when you have a million different projects you are working on at once, it makes delegating projects and tasks very easy...

Beyond all the great task-related features, one of my favorite things is the quirky animations - when marking complete on a task you'll occasionally get a celebratory animation (kind of a geeky, digital pat on the back) my favorite being a unicorn that flies across your screen. This is obviously not something that's necessary or a way to help users stay more organized, but it is fun and adds a little extra flair to the software. (Yes, it's the little things that excite me. 😆)

Inconvenienti

As with any software that is customizable and has a lot of features, there is a learning curve to using Asana. There are so many different settings and features, it can take a while to learn the ins and outs of using it. But, as I already said previously, they provide a plethora of training videos and have excellent customer service when you need to contact them.

One specific thing I wish was different is how the repeating tasks are set up. As of now, when a task is set to repeat, the next task doesn't show up until the previous one has been marked as complete. It would be nice to see all the repeating tasks (especially in the calendar format) so you can get an accurate view of all the tasks you have coming up for the upcoming months. It's not a major inconvenience, but something I would suggest that the developers implement in a future update.

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.

Vantaggi

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.

Inconvenienti

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.
