We started using Asana 1 year ago. It has been a hard road to figure out how best to use it. We tried to set a way for everyone to use it and then realized different departments work differently. We originally were focused on looking at the Project View and not the task view. It has been painful! We are all starting to get the hang of how it works best for each dept. We have a long ways to go in getting all our yearly repetitive tasks documented. We learned NOT to use reoccuring tasks because the moment you repeat them they regenerate. People kept getting confused and they would mark them complete over and over! We are not using subtasks because they don’t show up on the calendar view etc. We moved everything into tasks. We use the comments to keep track of where we are with things in addition to custom tags that tell whether we are on schedule, behind schedule or not started. Bottom line, it takes awhile to figure out what works for you!
