Find out what your peers are saying about monday.com, Microsoft, Asana and others in Project Management Software."The ability to share projects and tasks among team members appears to be the most valuable feature."
"The solution appears to be quite stable."
"The general UI shows progress and data analytics for all projects in progress."
"It is pretty comprehensive when it comes to the different views that it gives you. It gives you a Gantt chart view, calendar view, board view, and list view. It is kind of helpful to have different types of views and see how it views your different tasks. I appreciate being able to do that. The biggest thing is that it is extremely user friendly. Asana is pretty intuitive. Someone who is not tech-savvy can kind of catch on quickly. It is better than other tools like Smartsheet. Some of the other tools like Microsoft Project and Excel are great tools, but you have to invest a lot of time to learn them, which is not the case with Asana."
"The initial setup was straightforward."
"Asana has helped me (as an individual contributor) organize my daily work and given me a way to plan for longer term objectives."
"I love the way it monitors all of the current and past projects, and it sends notifications to keep everything on the track."
"What I like most about Asana is its simplicity. For example: we're not the only ones using it, and we onboard our customers to it, and normally, they have no questions."
"It's easy to learn. However, there is very little content available for the Nintex also, but they are providing their own documentation and all. So, it's easy to learn also."
"We were able to meet all of the requirements for functionality that were specified, and we did not experience challenges where we had to compromise on functionality."
"It has helped us a lot, especially during the initial phase of a project where most of the things are done on paper."
"Only Nintex has the feature which allows attachments to an email."
"It is a scalable product."
"K2's best feature is that it can solve complex tasks, issues, and projects with little coding."
"This tool is really helpful in reducing a lot of manual work. Its drag and drop components help to create a workflow faster than SharePoint Workflow Designer."
"NWC forms could be better. Also, the ability to build workflows that are not dependent on SharePoint is very desirable. The forms feature just isn’t as functional as the forms for SharePoint."
"We tried, but we haven't been successful with it. If people don't have the training, it is not easy to use. You need to make sure that the people are trained to use the system. They can provide more resources in the form of webcasts and videos that people can use to train themselves and understand how to use it."
"The product must reduce the information on the interface."
"The inbox feature can be a little overwhelming if you are working with Asana just from its project boards and only checking it periodically."
"On the development side for technical project management, Asana is missing features. We only use it for discussing tasks and strategies, and we use it for customer to-do lists. It doesn't have the source code integration that Jira and Jira Service Desk both have."
"We have not used Asana on our private server. We have been using the cloud solution. We need an on premise solution for government agencies."
"I rate the support from Asana a four out of five."
"In Asana, there's no way to add a custom date field."
"The stability of Asana is good. However, there are some issues with maintenance, when the solution is down. For example, there might be maintained for a few hours where we cannot use the solution."
"There have been some glitches, and the workflow fails frequently."
"The Workflow Designer needs improvement."
"Currently, a notable challenge lies in the alignment of user experiences across the eight or nine applications within the suite. Transitioning between applications can be somewhat cumbersome due to varying user interfaces. However, the provider is actively addressing this concern by consistently rolling out updates every four to five months, aimed at harmonizing and streamlining the interfaces. This ongoing effort is expected to enhance the user experience over time. In terms of functionality and features, the platform stands out, offering flexibility with the option for both on-premises and cloud deployment. This flexibility extends to the RPA tool, providing clients with choices tailored to their preferences. An advantage lies in the shared security and data infrastructure across the toolset, facilitating smooth data transfer between applications. This contrasts with experiences with Oracle, where data transfer may involve complexities such as the need for intermediary file formats like TXL or SCZ."
"Currently, copying workflow actions from one workflow to another is not possible. Also, the Office 365 solution is not as mature as on-premise."
"The solution needs more RPA and AI features."
"At times, issues arise in certain scenarios. In such cases, the versioning can become quite difficult. There may be no other way but to restart the entire process or rectify it at that point."
"We'd like to have integration with SharePoint."
"Converting a document from PDF to MS Word, or vice versa, needs to be improved."
