It excels at task management. Easy to use.

However, if you buy the premium or business version, it is billed annually per user and you get access to more options such as timeline viewer, customizable dashboards, custom forms and fields, milestones, and for managers an admin control panel.
Cons
It doesn't have document editing, time tracking or live chat but there are many other program integrations to get this done.

Additional functions make it rather deep, such as being able to crosspost tasks to multiple projects and have granular levels of permission. Their strong involvement with an avid developer community extends Asana to be far broader than its functions out of the box.
Pros
Many permission options.
Cons
Not made for project management (lack of time tracking features). Permission options are nice but can become a security risk.

You can do all sorts of things to a task, including adding comments, notifying team members, attaching documents and more.
Also, its abbility to integrate with many different third-party apps lets you create the digital environment that your team needs: You can connect it with InstaGantt to get dynamic Gantt Diagrams of your entire project, use it with Everhour, Harvest or WorkingOn to track and report time on every task, integrate it with Slack or Hipchat to push task updates and conversations into your chat channels... and even connect it with feedback bugtracking tools like TrackDuck and Usersnap.
Pros
- Cloud collaboration - Third-party Integrations - Easy to learn - Flexible - Mobile App - Offers a free plan - Pro plans very affordable - Really nice UI
Cons
- Ir could be a little bit faster on the browser - It would be great if they'd offer a Desktop App for offline syncing.

Not great - seemed to cause more problems than it resolved when collaborating - this might be due to to lack of usage understanding by colleagues (in particular those lacking a technical mindset) but to be honest - not great.
Pros
As a collaboration and task management, sharing and collaboration tool - it does what it says on the tin.i would describe it as a reasonable task management tool.
Cons
Too many email notifications and after a while ditched it and company decided to use Trello instead.

It's a great project management tool that helps teams communicate crucial details to increase productivity and streamline workflow. It acts as a digital checklist and has certainly replaced my need for a written notepad!

For example, I invited someone to my Asana workspace who did not accept the invite but who's email I'm unable to clear from my workspace.
