Asana

Overview

Asana is a project management platform that helps small teams assign work, track deadlines, and automate repetitive tasks without needing technical skills. The free Personal plan supports up to 2 users with unlimited tasks and projects, list, board, and calendar views, and 100-plus integrations with tools like Slack, Google Drive, and Zoom. When your team grows, the Starter plan at $10.99 per user per month (billed annually) adds unlimited users, a no-code workflow builder, Gantt and timeline views, custom fields, forms, and built-in AI that drafts status updates and builds workflows.
