Connect Asana to Slack, Microsoft Teams, Whatsapp, SMS, Discord & Telegram

Hey team,

I’m hoping for some feedback on an integration we want to build with Asana. I know Asana already plays nice with Slack. We have a Trello integration for creating cross-platform communication channels for each task and am curious to what extent this is relevant to Asana users.

Question: would it be useful to you if you could assign a task to people on Asana as usual, and then everyone connects together in one cross-platform communication group. Eg a manager on Slack, a client on Microsoft Teams and a freelancer on Whatsapp?

Also if you add a due-date we handle follow ups automatically.

If it’s not useful, please let me know why! Happy to add more info here, I just don’t want to seem salesy but you can check out StartADAM Control Panel product for some more context if you like, or ask here :slight_smile:

Thank you!

I would use it if it would cost affordable, for example $10 per month

Hi Adam, this is an interesting use case that certainly has been raised by customers. We ourselves looked at building an integration for WhatsApp with Asana. The limitations we found in that particular use-case was that you couldn’t easily trigger actions back to Asana from WhatsApp.

The Slack integration for example supports Likes, Mark Complete etc. You mention creating a Channel for each task, would you support Channels at the Project Level instead?

I took a look at the pricing on the website. The pricing is higher than what I think the market (in Australia at least) would generally accept. Since the user price is above the Advanced User seat for Asana. However it also a very advanced and comprehensive tool!

Good Luck!
