Asana is a work management platform. Teams plan projects, assign and track tasks, map timelines and automate workflows.
Asana lets you arrange work in shared projects shown as lists or kanban boards, and any task list can be viewed on a calendar. Portfolios let you monitor the status of your important projects together, while Goals let you set, track and manage company goals. Workload, Asana’s resource management feature, shows team bandwidth in a combined view. Forms capture details for work requests, and dashboards provide custom real-time charts that show where work may be blocked or off-track.
Asana lists solutions for operations, marketing, IT, product and sales teams, as well as for leaders. It also names industries such as healthcare, retail, government, education and manufacturing, plus nonprofits, agencies and small businesses. Use cases on its site include campaign management, creative production, content calendars, project intake, product launches, employee onboarding, regulatory compliance management and new site openings. Asana also supports Agile project management, which it says helps teams build fast and ship often.
Asana connects with Slack and Microsoft Teams, so you can turn action items from conversations into trackable tasks. The Google integration attaches Google Drive files to tasks, and a ServiceNow integration keeps ServiceNow requests and Asana tasks in sync. Zapier and Workato link Asana with other tools, and developers can build on the Asana API. For help, Asana offers a Help Center with step-by-step instructions, the Asana Academy for structured learning and a Community Forum where users and Asana team members share knowledge.
