How we picked the 10 top rated products

We chose the high-performing solutions on this list based on verified user ratings on our site. Depending on available data, qualifying products either had to be among the most user-reviewed or the most searched-for products in the Digital Workplace software category. They also needed to have sufficient reviews about collaboration tools, have a minimum user rating of 3 out of 5 for that feature, and show evidence of U.S. market presence. We then added a distinction for up to three products based on our proprietary ratings and reviews: Highest rated, Highly rated for collaboration tools, and Highly rated for free version. Sponsorship or client status has no influence on the selection of these products, but it may impact the order in which products appear.

“Asana has a few different collaboration tools that link to different aspects of its workspace. My preference is task comments and likes. It allows team members to both comment directly on a task with questions or status updates for the rest of the team or 'like' a task to be kept updated on its progress.”

Melissa R.

Quality Assurance Engineer

“As I have already mentioned Asana does an amazing job at making collaborating with others very simple. You assign every task to one person who is responsible of overall completion each task but you can add collaborators each task that will receive communications updates on them so that anyone that contributes to working on anything you create in Asana is easily accessible by that need it. When viewing work using the timeline view you can also see what work needs done before other can be started and see who is assigned to complete those tasks so if needed while you wait for your task be available to begin you assist others and ask them if they need to delegate any work to you to get things moving along that way there is never any points where you are progressing on work.”
