Asana

Asana is one of the most established and trusted work management platforms, used by over 100,000 organizations including NASA, Deloitte, and Spotify to coordinate work across teams and departments. Founded in 2008 by Facebook co-founder Dustin Moskovitz and engineer Justin Rosenstein, Asana has evolved from a task management tool into a comprehensive work management platform that combines project planning, workflow automation, goal tracking, and AI-powered intelligence. What sets Asana apart is its focus on clarity and ease of use—projects can be viewed in multiple formats (List, Board, Timeline, Calendar, Gantt) to suit different work styles, while powerful automation features eliminate repetitive work. The platform excels at cross-functional collaboration with features like unlimited projects, custom fields, project dashboards, and portfolio management that gives leadership visibility across initiatives. Asana AI (available on paid plans) provides smart summaries, intelligent status updates, and automated task creation. With its generous free plan supporting up to 10 users and paid plans starting at $10.99/user/month, Asana scales from small teams to enterprises with advanced security, compliance, and administrative controls on higher tiers.
