You may remember the blog I did on Asana. Asana is a project management application dedicated to changing the way teams work together – and apart. Asana was released to the public only a few months ago and, with a star studded team and backing supporters, they have been busy making improvements. Here is a quick run-down of the updates:
Multiple email address support: If you often work on several projects as I do you know about using various email addresses to keep things organized. Asana now lets you assign a separate email for each Asana workspace you have. This is great to keep professional and personal projects separate as well.
Recurring tasks: If you have repeating tasks, you can now easily schedule them for daily, weekly, monthly or annually. There is also a Periodically setting where you can choose how often it repeats based on last completion date.
New ways to use: Available at the iTunes App Store as well as Chrome Web Store. You can now use Asana on the go with your iPhone with even more functionality for assigning and renaming tasks coming soon. The Chrome app gives you a convenient link from each new tab.
Email notifications: Email notifications have been consolidated. New and completed tasks, attachments, and due date changes that happen in a short period of time will come in one email, keeping clutter out of your inbox.
Continual improvements on already functional software is always a good sign of things to come. I’m looking forward to future releases of Asana.
