I have per my mistake, asked my Asana manager to change my account to starter from premium to see if the new rules could be useful in some case. I had the sad surprise that we now have changed for the whole company and the limit of rules that I believed to be 250 per person is actually by company. Which is truly inconsistent with good business practice. It means the bigger my company is the less Asana is useful for us. I know someone at sales is thinking, yes, that way you will buy the bigger package, but it makes no sense for us to go for a bigger package for only one function. What will actually happen is we will stop using the rules, the feedback from our employee will be that Asana is not very helpful in the end and we will change the platform in 2 to 3 years because another platform will offer something closer to what we need. It is so incredibly anti-client to make sure your best feature is unusable. I want to go back to premium for as long as we can be on it. It truly saddens me that Asana is going for the let’s make it shittier for our client in the hope to squeeze an extra million.

Good news everyone! Update: May 1, 2025: See Upcoming updates to Asana Starter and Advanced Plans and Pricing and packaging changes in 2025 As a result of this announcement, the ‘250 rule actions’ limit will no longer apply since Asana rolled back all limitations on Starter and Advanced plans. :clap: :clap: :clap: @Forum-team , can you mark this topic as ‘launched’, I guess?

Agree! The 250 limit is very unrealistic. We are a nonprofit and even with your nonprofit pricing, upgrading our 60 person team would still be a HUGE expense just to have the amount of rules needed. Also, our entire team doesn’t use rules (varying degrees of tech saavy-ness) so there is no way I could justify an upgrade for every user when only a few users need the rule! Another user pointed out this is only about 11 actions per day. I use rules such as “mark as complete when moved to this section,” that are major time savers but that means all my actions are used on simple things and I don’t even have the remaining actions to explore more ways to optimize my work. Work flows stopping working at a certain (very low) point completely defeats the purpose of the workflow. Please raise the limit that I foresee severely lowering Asana’s helpfulness.

Please also take a look. [image] Advanced plan to remove the limit on the number of actions allowed. Features Launched In the advanced plan The rule has a limit of 25,000 actions per month. If the user limit is 500, this means each user can perform 50 actions per month. Considering that there are 20 working days in a month, that would be an average of 2.5 actions per day, which I don’t think is enough. Limits based on your Asana plan – Asana Help Center

+1! 250 Actions is a complete dealbreaker for us which will very likely force us to go with a different tool like awork or clickup after using asana for many years.

100% agree! It also makes no since to have one tier at 250 and the next tier at 25,000. What a huge difference. Also, it isn’t actually counting how many rules are running. I have a 6 person team with 2 rules each which would be 12 rules a day, but we went over our limit. They said it actually counting the ACTIONs not the rule. So if you have a rule to move things due today into a “Do Today” section, and you have 50 tasks due today, that takes 50 of your 250! Ridiculous!

Details of legacy plans are not displayed on the current website. In past documentation, legacy paid plans included Premium. At this time, I was able to use Asana’s basic rules, but not custom rules. If you select Starter in your current plan, the rule usage limit is 250 times. I understand that it is now possible to use custom rules instead, but is this correct? If so, what do you think about the proposal to change the basic rule to outside the 250-time limit?
