With Asana, you can assign a workspace to any number of teams. In a digital workspace like this, you can manage as many projects as you like by creating, managing, and editing tasks. You can define deadlines, add tags to filter tasks, or attach local files as well as Dropbox, OneDrive, Box, and Google Drive documents. A comprehensive overview of the different projects and tasks is provided by the dashboard, which enables you to organize tasks alphabetically, by deadline, or by status.
Additional features of the collaboration tool:
- Own team calendar
- Project chat (conversations)
- Message system (inbox) with archive
- Undo function
- Synchronization of tasks with external calendar software
- Print and export function (CSV) for projects and tasks
The basic version allows you to create projects for up to 15 participants. In case you have to manage teams larger than this, you should go for the Premium edition. Here, you’ll find ready-made templates, which will help you create new projects quickly and easily. The package also provides advanced search and reporting features that make the work process even easier, as well as access to special administrator features for even greater control over projects and participants. In the Enterprise version, you receive exclusive support and the possibility of the login being in SAML (Security Assertion Markup Language) for all users.
