for me both apps complement very well... we use both: slack for conversations, brainstorming and general coordination... and then we jump to asana to create to do lists.... we are a small team :)

@tarekdemiati9991 8 лет назад

Comparing Slack to Asana is as useful as comparing Skype to Microsoft Project! ;-)

@pjpw2320 7 лет назад

Absolutely agree. Or like trying to use Notepad for pure Project Management!

I know this is almost a year old, but very helpful to me, thanks! I've used Asana and Slack and see the pros and cons of both but converted to slack maybe 2 years ago, exclusively. Slack keeps evolving and, since you posted this, has added a lot of what you said was its negative points. I haven't tried it yet, but they recently released threaded comments. The one thing I miss about asana and still think it is better for is that project organization. Though, with the right channel management and threaded conversations, as well as integration, it's possible to do it all in Slack. Thanks again for the video!

@MidoriAmae 8 лет назад

Thanks for this review! We just started using Slack in the office and are having a good go at it.

@AprilMayb 7 лет назад

I don't understand this comparison. If Slack has no ability to manage projects, how is it even comparable to Slack? The real question on my mind is, does Slack integrate with Asana?

@desertrose0601 7 лет назад

Obviously she meant, how is Slack comparable to Asana. Use your brain.

@encycl07pedia- 7 лет назад

+desertrose0601 Maybe if OP had used her brain, I wouldn't have said anything. Why does a Minecraft fan visit a video about professional team communication? Did you recently get a job?

@cybermonkeyusa 8 лет назад

Wunderlist allows for shared lists and it integrates with O365, plus it integrates with Outlook for Mac and PC.

@TechAuditTV 8 лет назад

+Scott Pleasants I love Wunderlist. By far my favorite task management app yet.

@OlivierRuton 8 лет назад

about tasks management, slack has a trello integration and bots can extend a lot the features, ifttt also can improve features and communication with other apps.

@911aDay 5 лет назад

Since Asana is down once again I have time to vent about it here: 1) Asana price increases are coming soon Sept 5th: 5 & 10 seat Premium $6.99 => $8.59 15+ seat Premium $10.99 => $13.49 2) Also, it's going down all the time lately, Google "Asana status page"

@DanielRaymondQuebec 5 лет назад

Bridge24 now integrates with Asana if you need charts and reports for your projects.

@GuyCassidy 7 лет назад

If you have 15 employees and you can't afford less than $10 per MONTH to ensure your business runs efficiently then you're either nowhere near having that many employees, your business is massively flawed or by employees you mean freelancers you work with occasionally (for those asana has a "guest" status - unlimited members at no cost). Other than that, I agree with what most commenters said here, the comparison is a bit pointless. I watched it thinking slack might have some hidden "asana-like" features I was unaware of.

@dct124 6 лет назад

Notifcation: Slack has both mobile/desktop notifications Threads: Slack has threads Post: Slack has a dedicated doc system built-in, allows for coding Integration: pretty large integration directory

@AnneliesHoogland 7 лет назад

Asana can be integrated into Slack. Furthermore, if you only want tasklists, Slack gives the opportunity to add Task both. That works just fine.

@melissastenberg3486 6 лет назад

We use Slack for team communication and task management tool Deskun. I think it's weird to compare task management and communication tools.

@cybermonkeyusa 7 лет назад

A downside to using "free" is that it makes it that much harder to leave if you need to with your data in hand.

@jimmbbo 7 лет назад

Might as well compare Microsoft Project with Word... Apples and granite rocks...

@earlalvizo4420 8 лет назад

Dude have you tried GUEST user then assign it to the projects? 15 users is just a team name but you can add unlimited guest users and not all time you have to put all the members or part of the team.

@jjasminchang 7 лет назад

Indeed, this video lead to false information about asana. We have almost 50 users for FREE (It's unlimited) and now we can't live without asana! :)

@SaryAlAssad 7 лет назад

Nice video. Currently our team uses Asana, basically because we have different tasks in different projects that we need to manage and discuss. Different tasks can have different follower/contributors. I've used Slack for a very short assessment period with a different company so I can't compare them.

@eddu4361 6 лет назад

What is the purpose of this comparison? Its like comparing cars with shoes.

@TheBrodie12 7 лет назад

This is great, thank you for sharing. Have you compared these product to Ryver?

@itsrelativ3967 4 года назад

Never tried Asana. Slack has become my new email notification replacement tool. I'm tired of creating email newsletters and clients telling me they can't read the email because some images/text are missing or misplaced. Everyone's using different email clients and with Slack everybody sees the same thing. And you can move your email list to Slack or have guest mode. I think Slack should be more marketed towards people who have clients/followers. Not so much of a focus or project management team. Does that make sense?

@Maisonier 7 лет назад

Can Telegram be used as a replacement for Slack for teamwork communication?

@MikeFromMaine 8 лет назад

Asana was really confusing. I'm loving Trello for task management.

@hemanshubahl3785 6 лет назад

Have you tried Airtable? What do you think about running a company so you don’t have corporate email and just use Slack and Airtable? How do you compare Asana and Airtable?

@mitchellmiles 6 лет назад

How does Workplace by FB compare to Slack? Seems that Workplace is communications focused as well and lacking on the project mgmt side of things.

@VefaERDEMJr 7 лет назад

I have slack with todoist integration, but my (very small) design team is not happy with the experience that they offer. They think that hassling with a bunch of apps is a time-sinking process. So I am searching for an alternative. Asana seems a great alternative but not having a desktop app is a downside. Any recommendation would welcome.

@stevewalker3518 7 лет назад

Have you looked at Glip? glip.com/

@jjasminchang 7 лет назад

I agree.. Slack is so messy..

@jjasminchang 7 лет назад

Asana is FREE unlimited guests which is more than enough. We have almost 50 happy team members using asana without a penny and support is also great. I am a big fan of Asana. Personally I did not like Slack as it is too busy and disturbing me with too much of notifications. (can't turn off) and it is not task oriented with too much messy in bla bla..

@SebastianPappG 7 лет назад

Very good and informative Video Brad ! Congrats ! Why are u promoting it ? an affiliate maybe ? xD

@YasirTufekci 7 лет назад

Have you used Phabricator before? If yes, what is your opinion about that?

@qwertyqart 7 лет назад

it would be great to have a visual as well

@TechAuditTV 7 лет назад

+Green Brain Seaside What do you mean?

@gabrielrangel956 7 лет назад

I think they meant: visuals of the apps

@tiitpriske7315 7 лет назад

Hi guys. Can you suggest me software, where I can send problems to my team members, we debate/find solution together and after that we can archieve this topic. And in future, when similar problem comes, we can find our discussion again from archieves. Even better, if I can use some tag-words to make it simpler to find it.

@cybermonkeyusa 8 лет назад

Why not use Yammer, Asana or Podio? Also, there is not task management with Slack.

@kbuley 8 лет назад

+Scott Pleasants slack.com/apps/A0HBTUUPK--todo

@cybermonkeyusa 8 лет назад

That is not really task management like that in Asana, Podio or Wunderlist. Yes, this work around allows you to make a list of tasks, but it does not give you a way to set due dates, reminders, etc.

@cybermonkeyusa 8 лет назад

There is slack integration for Asana and Wunderlist, but it has the same capabilities for communications, so I am not seeing where one would need slack if they were already using one of these tools.

@kbuley 8 лет назад

+Scott Pleasants you can most certainly set reminders

@ptsplumber 8 лет назад

He suggested a small start up as up to 100 employees?

@mariojohnson4695 5 лет назад

Slack won’t be free for long for the smaller user, they are a public company now, people got to start paying. Everybody likes free, except at the company they work at. I believe all novel software inventions should charge, especially if that technology improves your bottomline.

@MrLelebus 5 лет назад

Can you please give some thoughts about Flashbeing?

@johnangelico667 7 лет назад

Ahem... your "Let's get social" links didn't include Slack? :-) How does Slack do phone calls? John A from Australia

@tosinis 7 лет назад

There is a phone icon at the top right hand corner of direct conversations and channels( for paid version). It also does video calls too

@kwenny1016 8 лет назад

I love slack how do I download the application through goggle playstore

@desertrose0601 7 лет назад

RE: needing to use the desktop app. Not true. I use it at work solely in the web browser and it gives you desktop notifications.

@lorijones3877 7 лет назад

is there ever a reason to use both?

@hugehandelfan 7 лет назад

Price has freaking nothing to do with which is better. $8/month per user is cheap if it delivers more value than that.

@vedranart 8 лет назад

Hey! Have you tried Facebook for Work? What do you think about it? Tnx!

@TechAuditTV 7 лет назад

+vedranart Not yet, but I'm hoping to soon! I'll have a review out on that ASAP!

@Matthew-tv1hq 7 лет назад

The obnoxiously long grammarly ad gave this video a thumbs down. That was a slimy way to run an ad providing no way to skip ad.

@TechAuditTV 7 лет назад

+Matthew S yeah those non-skippable ads are the worst. I think we'll see RU-vid increase the usage on those. I'm not aware of anyway to disable those unfortunately.

@dct124 6 лет назад

Task = Busybot integration

@wordpresstutorialinhindi5385 7 лет назад

Slack is much better

@ani1690 7 лет назад

try flock!!

@7ito1990 7 лет назад

hasn't it lost support? Or are you talking about something other than the browser?

@Mervin23 2 года назад

@paulhuddleston3057 8 лет назад

I'm liking Buckets. Buckets.co

@Mervin23 2 года назад

Wtf is slack and asana

@Diggnuts 8 лет назад

It is a bloody hipster tool for millennials who are unable to properly structure their communications.. I hate it, I'm forced to use this, but it adds nothing of value apart from an abstraction layer for the interactively challenged to hide the fact that they can't think beyond 140 characters.

@Atrain204 8 лет назад

I'm genuinely curious about what you dislike about these apps. What makes other (older) ways better?

@Diggnuts 8 лет назад

Alex Henry They are solutions to problems that don't exist and then create a whole slew of new communication problems. What these apps to is taking away the notion that communicating takes thought.

@Atrain204 8 лет назад

Fair enough. As someone who hates email, I welcome new ideas that can change how people communicate and coordinate each other. While no web-based solution is the end-all-be-all app that they claim to be, office environments need all of the innovation they can get.

@O1OO1O1 7 лет назад

Heh, what a load of crap. If you don't like it, fair enough. But using that to justify calling them unneccessary or bad is silly. What tools would you suggest to replace them? People used to use paper-based tools, and much less good digital tools. Many people still use email, which is a very ineffective communication tool that people often use for project management and file sharing--things email really sucks at. Now we have better tools that are much more suited to those tasks. Your idea that the people who use modern tools can't think beyond 140 characters is laughable and, to me, more so a sign of bad (fallacious) thinking.
