Asana: Where work connects 应用的评论

In the app or on my laptop at work. Way too easy to “complete” a task, let alone trying to get through the maze of finding it. In an organization that relies so heavily on this system, that caveat makes it very difficult to get along with.

At a very basic level, it gets the job done. The design isn’t conducive to higher levels of productivity, and most of your projects aren’t available in the sidebar which is one of the hallmarks of the app on desktop and browser. You’ll find yourself chasing down where they are every time.

Strong accountability tool for teams. Best of the group including Atlassian tools, Monday, and Smarsheets. I tried them all. Strong development paths as well.

We can’t get any help to upgrade to an advanced plan, nor can we get any help on issues with functionality completely failing out of nowhere. 5 emails now and not a single response. Our organization is about to drop asana due to these issues which are well known by the apps users.

Blank review

Company only sells user in packs of 5. You need 11 you pay for 15. Also, if you go over you limit of users they automatically upgrade you to the next 5 pack. You fix it so you’re under the limit for your current users, they won’t refund you based on their “policy”. Don’t subscribe, you’ll regret it. Whatever you do, don’t do an annual plan. There’s no refund. You want to leave you have to cancel right on the exact date or your screwed.

Why will everything else download and open with no problem, except THIS APP?! I can’t even give a proper review when I can’t even begin a project on this thing.

If you’re scrolling the app is so sensitive that you might just swipe a few tasks complete cause the unnecessary feature to be able to complete a task like you’re swiping in Tinder makes it time consuming and tough to recover whatever you accidentally marked as complete

I think the desk top version is strong while the mobile app needs serious work. The sorting feature is absent on the mobile app. so i spent a lot of time organizing my list in order of priority. when i am in the field the mobile app does not respect that priority organization and randomly lists my todays tasks out of sequence

Moved over from using Microsoft ToDo — the main reason was for Asana’s better project collaboration features. However, when reviewing individual tasks time — the title is truncated forcing the user to click each individual line to see the full text… HUGE WASTE IOF TIME when trying to do weekly reviews or audits. This may be enough for us to move on to another tool BECAUSE most of our team rely on mobile app primarily…

I wish there was a way for users that need it to be able to add more of the desktop versions features to their mobile view. I use asana on my phone majority of the time.

I like Asana for the features, but when you want to change the number of seats when you try and login from your phone, it keeps taking you to the app and you can’t change your seats on the app. Worst customer experience ever.

The iOS phone app is incredible and is a very usable software that bridges the gap to the computer. But this ipad app is lacking heavily. The ipad app needs to function more like the desktop app rather than be a blown up iPhone app. Major updates required for effective usability.

NOTE: This is NOT a review of Asana in general, but it’s strictly a review of the latest version of the iOS app. I mainly use Asana on the desktop and I give it 10 stars out of 5! It’s the only productivity app that I have kept and continue to use. I’m not sure what they did to this app, but the latest version is horrible. It starts up in half-screen mode and you can’t maximize it. I usually view projects in board view and loved the fact that previously you could just click on the “+” sign in each column to add a new task. But I guess that was too efficient because the “+” sign is gone. Now you have to click on the big “+” at the bottom left and jump through ten hoops to create a task. WHY? Please fix this mess.

Glitches so that you can’t add new material. Spontaneously deletes whole columns (sections) of activity. It’s a mess

Do yourself a favor and stay away from this app on mobile devices and tablets. Instead, just use the browser/web version because this product is terrible. You aren’t able to create your own views, the interface for moving between projects is bad and (last I checked) the “My Tasks” view won’t even load so somehow the team introduced a bug that kills the core piece of a productivity/todo app without realizing it.

PLEEEEASE. MAKE THE WIDGET MORE USEFUL! See below Your widget is highly limited in that it will only show items assigned to today, not past-due items. So, when my schedule starts to slip, the only way to maintain that onscreen encouragement is to massage my schedule to make sure everything is set as due today. When I’m busy, I don’t have time for that, which makes your widgets unhelpful. Please fix so I can go back to loving you.

e.g. “my tasks” view has no way to add a task (unlike the web app)

As far as task management tools go this is a 5 star resource. Use it daily to track every task and project. Works well with over 200 team members. Keeps us organized.

This app is amazing and actually deserves five stars… I’d give it seven stars at the App Store would let me. I just finished my free trial and tried to sign up. I followed all instructions that including the app generating an email that launched the app which kept having a system error every time I would try to continue. I the went to the website and tried to sign up and discovered there’s no way to do it. Using their chat bots for support to try to find a way to sign up lead to the chat bot crashing with several errors repeatedly. There is no way to sign up for a full plan, even sadder everything that I had input into the application is now unavailable because the trial is over. There’s no number for customer support and no way to actually complete the transaction. A very sad and frustrating end to an absolutely amazing experience. Please fix this ASAP so nobody else has to go through this.

It’s almost 2025

Update: PLEASE fix search & tags! —- I use it. It’s buggy though. The website is sooo much better, but not very usable on my phone. Current frustrations: search is now very weak. I can’t use words that are found in the comments or some other fields. Comparing that to Evernote and …well it’s 0 to 100. And where are tags? The app isn’t allowing me to add new ones to a task and I can no longer have tags visible as a sorting column in a project. Big fail.

My biggest beef with Asana, compared to say Trello. Is the drop off of functionality from the desktop app to the iPhone and iPad app. Functionality drops off the cliff and it’s very clunky. While Trello maintains 98% of the features and same smoothness in usability, Asana is rough. I’ve grown used to the desktop app and browser version and I find myself using my laptop as much as I can instead of the app. The iOS and iPad apps I use only if I have to. With Trello, I would use them all interchangeably without issue. On my iPad, you can’t use Chrome but you can use Safari, that may be my solution in place of the app, which feels like a miss.

Make a web app. I don’t need this on my phone.

Can’t switch users on ipad version

Asana is awful. The idea may be good in theory but the execution is terrible. The main problem is how awful the connectivity is. Asana is slow, very very slow. I oftentimes have connectivity issues with asana while everything else is working fine. If the connectivity lapses, then everything you did in the meantime wont stick. Asana: pay for better servers you cheapskate goons

I love how much this app does on the free version! I use several productivity tools and this is the best value out there, hands down!

Why do you force people to ugrade to iOS 16? you know there is an option to allow users to use the latest compatible version? poor decision.

Asana’s functionality itself is great, but just heavily suffers from really clunky and unintuitive UI and desperately needs an overhaul. Does what it’s supposed to great once you figure things out though.

Developers are making this worse and worse. Just getting to a project takes more and more clicks. I was offline camping and none of my cards showed up anymore - so offline usage is broken now.

After a 2FA set up glitch, I have been effectively locked out my account for over two weeks and missed major work deadlines. This is completely unacceptable. Asana has no support team for whatever reason, and this has been a complete nightmare. I have contacted the support email with no response, left comments on the instagram, DM'd to no avail. Maybe try Monday or a different service that actually cares about its customers.

Asana removed all search filters from the app except searching by text string.

Asana was once an incredibly simple and intuitive app that did everything you could ask for. Now it does a million things you never wanted and can’t accomplish the simplest requests.

Quite honestly we are about to ditch this app after years of use and go back to Trello. It’s unreliable. Glitches constantly. Randomly fails to update from changes made on mobile devices. Now all my thumbnails just randomly stopped showing. Definitely not worth the price and costs us thousands in lost time, lost info, confusion, etc. Truly great concept but the app is just not reliable.

The issue with Asana is that while it allows task creation, it doesn't provide a time-based view for tasks within a day. For example, you can't schedule a task to be completed from 9 to 10 AM, as Asana's calendar view doesn't show hourly breakdowns. This makes time blocking difficult. Additionally, when you import Asana tasks into Outlook or Google Calendar, it blocks the entire day, even if it’s one task, because Asana doesn't support time-specific task scheduling.

App crashes every time I go to fill out a field in a task 🤯

Mobile app frequently displays “Offline, reconnect” so that you can’t find the tasks you need to find, and you can’t build a new filter using custom fields on the mobile app.

Cant login on ios. I cant click continue to enter my email. 👎🏽👎🏽👎🏽 did all suggestions

Although Asana is solves the needs of our company’s president in allowing him to keep tabs on our various departments it can be very frustrating for me in the way it works best in my department because it will not allow me to somewhat customize the features for my particular needs. For example , I do not want constant emails for everything that happens but cannot turn off emails. Also I need to constantly rearrange the tasks as my priorities are very dynamic and that necessitates more time to change due dates and/assignee, hence I’d like to disable the due date or assignee but cannot. Also, after wasting a lot of time trying to solve certain things I FINALLY got to a real person but he offered me no solution.

First, they force you to download their app if you try to login through your phone (I’m against downloading apps unless it’s needed/helpful to me). Then, they don’t give you an option to turn off email notifications from within the app so you have to find a computer to login and do so. In the end, I have to go through a computer to have all features accessible so it was pointless to download the app at all.

I wish the app had more functionality. I can’t modify goals on the app, which is frustrating. Many other things that the app doesn’t have functionality for, unfortunately. Pretty expensive all things considering. Planning to create a workflow using Asana and then migrate to a different project management platform if the iOS app doesn’t improve by then.

No se como decirlo uso asana en mi computadora pero también la tengo en mi celular para la administración de mis tareas y proyectos me ha sido muy útil en mi computadora pero por alguna razón siento que la versión de celular es muy poco atractiva de usar y siendo sincera cuando busqué de una versión de celular para organizar tus trabajos encontré otra muy buena opción pero no tan buena en computadora lo que me deja con la duda de cuál usar ya que a pesar de que uso más la computadora también uso mucho mi celular para administrar más rápidamente mis trabajos.

Been using Asana for a few years. Suddenly I tried to open it on my iPhone today and they told me I had to update the app. The update it said it wouldn't install unless I upgraded my operating system. I'm on the highest version of the operating system that my phone allows. So it's buy a new phone or stop using Asana. asana will force you into a phone upgrade treadmill.

We purchased Asana on a per license basis for our small business. We put in considerable effort to design our processes around Asana. Overnight the licensing structure had changed so instead of per user, it’s now 1-5, and 6-10. Meaning for our sixth employee, we now need to pay double what we were paying for Asana. This kind of thing makes planning software costs for small businesses impossible. I suggest avoiding asana because they do not honor the licensing structure that you signed up with.

I have a login prompt from opening up the app and then when I put in my credentials, it says error: I’m already logged in. So basically I’m not able to login.

The advanced search features on the iPhone app don’t mirror the in browser search features. I want to use the browser version on my phone but keep being redirected to the app.

Downloaded this app yesterday and I’m obsessed! Absolutely the most well-laid out project app for me that I’ve seen or used so far, and I’ve tried out a good bit of project apps. If anything changes or if there are any updates (good or not) that arise, I will update this review accordingly. However, I’ve taken the time to explore this app well and so far I believe it’s beyond amazing!

Asana is awesome
