What is the most user-friendly, easy-to-use project management tool available for remote teams?
I work at Asana, and recently our team—like many teams around the world—moved to remote work. So I’ve experienced first-hand how Asana can help remote teams manage their projects, align on their tasks, and gain clarity on their work.
With Asana, you can coordinate work across multiple teams and projects. Because Asana brings together your plans, projects, tasks, and communications in one shared space, everyone stays up to date and nothing slips through the cracks. It’s easy to see how work is progressing and who is doing what by when – all without email and status meetings.
The main way to coordinate work is with projects. Projects are how you organize and plan all of the tasks related to a specific initiative, goal, or big piece of work. You can view a project in:
List View: At-a-glance insight into who’s doing what by when in a linear grid view.
Board View: Visualize each stage of work on this Kanban board view.
Calendar View: Set due dates and see all tasks in a project on one calendar.
Timeline View: See how work maps out over time, avoid overlap, and easily identify dependencies.
Each project is made up of tasks: the building blocks of any work in Asana. A good task has an assignee and a due date, so your team can clearly see who’s doing what by when. A few things to know about tasks:
Make task names specific and action-based so it’s clear what you need to do.
Set realistic due dates for your teammates to keep everyone on track and aligned.
Use subtasks to break down work.
Attach files to provide context.
Add teammates as collaborators so they can stay up to date on task progress.
Comment on a task to ask questions, respond to teammates, or offer information and insight.
A few of our top use cases for remote work include:
Sharing goals and priorities
Team meeting and 1:1 agendas
New employee onboarding
Product launches
Editorial calendar and publishing
Global <> local campaign execution
Just because you’re getting started in Asana doesn’t mean you have to start from scratch. To get working quickly, try starting a project with a pre-made project template. Each project template has example tasks and guidelines on how you can get started with your work, fast.
Asana is built to be flexible and easy to use for teams of all sizes. But the best way to know if a work management platform is right for you is to try it. Anyone can try Asana, free of charge try Asana today. I hope you find it a helpful way to keep your team organized and connected – I certainly have.
