Finally, project management that teams actually use
After trying Trello, Monday.com, and ClickUp, we finally found our project management solution with Asana Premium. Our 24-person creative agency has been using it for 14 months with 100% team adoption.
The multiple project views are game-changing. Designers prefer Board view for visual workflow management, account managers use Timeline view to track project milestones against deadlines, and leadership uses Portfolio view to monitor resource allocation across all active projects.
Custom fields allow us to track project-specific data – client priority level, estimated hours, actual hours, creative brief status, and approval stages. This data feeds into reports that show our project profitability and team utilization rates.
The Forms feature standardized our project intake process. Clients submit creative requests through a branded form that automatically creates properly structured projects with the right assignees and due dates. This eliminated the email chaos of ‘quick requests’ that previously disrupted planned work.
