Great video as always Paul! 🙏 Another video that it would give tremendous value would be "Asana Vs Slack" As an agency owner my self I'm getting trouble on figuring out the best way to communicate with my team regarding various projects. I've seen countless times communication being lost between two platforms and I cannot figure out how to best tackle that. Your help and advice would help me (and I guess countless others) tremendously!! Thank you in advance.
Interesting. Been using SuiteCRM several years now, but I honestly don’t think we’ve leverage project management to its full potential. Someone mentioned Asana. The interface looks nice.
Great video ! Two questions : 1) for the premium version (10.99$ / month), do we add the taxes ? 2) If I have a team of 4 people who will work actively on the same project on Asana, do I have to pay for the 4 ? (4 X 10.99$ / month) ?
Asana's pricing has been updated since this video was made. Yes, you'll need to pay for all 4 people on the team assuming they are members. You should see a summary of the amount incl. taxes when you go through the checkout
It seems like Asana pricing structure is great for Asana, but it’s a real pain for users once you have anything other than a very simple use case. It’s been the only real frustration I’ve had with Asana.
just checking if the "Users" in the premium plan are considered like PM's or Admin? can i invite people as team members who get assigned tasks without being charged for them as users?
Anyone you invite with an email @ your domain would be a member who you'll need to pay for. People not @ your domain are guests and you don't need to pay.
Great video! I have a very small business that hires about 30 people but for very few hours along the week per person. I mainly need them to check things on a checklist I make out of assignments they need to do. If I go for premium would I need to pay for each one of them.
@@minor-co Can you explain this a little further? If only I purchase the premium will the people on my team (3) still see everything and be able to be assigned but Just not see the timeline and premium features? What does inviting their personal email do?
I really like Asana and am impressed with the portfolio view. Are there other apps with the same or similar feature for less than the business subscription price? Also, I’m wondering why each user needs a subscription with unlimited “limited members.” If I run projects and simply want to keep my team up to date on the status would this work with just one subscription?
Sorry, I'm only familiar with Asana I'm afraid. When you upgrade your Asana account, you can choose whether to upgrade the entire organisation or just one team (which may be the better option for you)
Thanks for the great video Paul! I am not sure if I understand the logic of the pricing. So lets say I have 15 team members, and then suddenly the team needs one more person, then the price jumps from totally free to 11 x 16 = 176 dollars per month? It seems rather strange that there is no in-between options. do I understand it correctly?
This video is a little out of date now as Asana recently revamped their pricing so I recommend you check out their website. To answer your question, Asana do have a limit on the number of free users you can have before you are required to pay for your team.
Hi Paul. Thanks a lot for this video. Can You please explain what is the principle of the seats? Actually, Asana advertises Premium per 1 seat but doesn´t allow one to have less than 2. It´s confusing.
Hi Ivan, a seat is simply a license for user in your account. You could try downgrading from 2 seats and I believe they'll offer you just one seat instead.
They don't have to be. You can also invite guests (people not @yourdomain) and they will not count towards the 15 member limit (assuming your account is set up as an Organization)
Can I purchase the business subscription and leave my teammates on the free sub so that I can clean up projects and turn into templates then assign accordingly?
Hey Paul, question, if you have different teams in different tiers, can they still interact with each other? For example, we have our Finance Department taking over a project that used to be handled by another team. However they aren't big Asana users. I would love to use the Custom Workflow rules to help them and organize their projects without upgrading them to the business tier. Do you know if that would work?
I'm afraid in order to use the workflow features and rules, any member of your account (someone with an email @yourdomain.com) would need to have a paid license to use Workflows.
I've never used it (I'm happy with Apple Notes for notes and Asana for tasks/projects). Notion is a real blank canvas and I'm not sure how it would add any value over the tools I already use.
Do you mean a 'Member' (i.e. someone within your organisation that has an email @yourdomain). Whereas a guest is someone outside of your organisation with an email at another domain.
Hey, Thank you for your video I urgently need help. In my business we are a total of 2 people who use Asana I opened a number of projects, but I realized that there isn't a limitation in the free subscription. And when I wanted to check a paid subscription I received a charge of $152 for 5-seat Business monthly plan for your workspace? And I don't understand what it is?

Thanks, I'll see what I can do. I actually discuss this in my Master Asana course: paulminors.com/consulting/asana-consulting/
Great video thanks !!
You're welcome 😀

Glad the video was useful.
Can a company have a combination of paid and free accounts, with only those that need full access using the paid seats and the rest on free ?
I'm afraid not. If you have a paid account, everyone @yourcompanydomain will need to be a paid user.
Great video ! Two questions :
1) for the premium version (10.99$ / month), do we add the taxes ?

I agree, it's a pain for solo users

I have the same question
Anyone you invite with an email @ your domain would be a member who you'll need to pay for. People not @ your domain are guests and you don't need to pay.
oh my.. why I am seeing this now? lol thanks paul as always
Glad I could help!

If they each have an email @yourcompany domain then yes. You could invite them with a personal email to get around this.

what is the minimum number of users on the Asana Starter plan. Can I have (and only pay for 3 users)?
I believe it's now 2 users
Hi Paul, quick question, I just signed up with ASANA. It says free trial is 30 days. So I cannot continue to use the free version after 30 days?
You can use it for free, you probably just signed up to a trial of Premium by the sounds of it.
Hi Paul. Thanks a lot for this video. Can You please explain what is the principle of the seats? Actually, Asana advertises Premium per 1 seat but doesn´t allow one to have less than 2. It´s confusing.
Hi Ivan, a seat is simply a license for user in your account. You could try downgrading from 2 seats and I believe they'll offer you just one seat instead.
This was my question as well. Does one seat only mean only one person can use Asana? Or does it mean the only person that can be an admin?
I really don’t get why they do offer a single seat plan. It’s the only reason why I don’t use it
Yeah, I agree this is frustrating.
Hi Paul. Thanks for this. In the case of Basic plan (free), must the 15 users be within my custom domain?
They don't have to be. You can also invite guests (people not @yourdomain) and they will not count towards the 15 member limit (assuming your account is set up as an Organization)
@@minor-co thanks 🙏
Can I purchase the business subscription and leave my teammates on the free sub so that I can clean up projects and turn into templates then assign accordingly?
Yes, you could do this by upgrading just one team that you're on to the business plan.
is the gmail rules integration (in which an action sends a mail to someone) only for premium or for free as well?
This would require Premium I'm afraid.
Just wondering if the Basic version allows me to use templates I create or do I need primium for that?
You would need Premium I'm afraid.
Hey Paul, question, if you have different teams in different tiers, can they still interact with each other?

Hi , How can i register to the free version Asana ? Pls guide
Yes, you can sign up on their website.
Paul, what are your toughts on Notion?
I've never used it (I'm happy with Apple Notes for notes and Asana for tasks/projects). Notion is a real blank canvas and I'm not sure how it would add any value over the tools I already use.
If I have a team of 5 persons who report to me, can only myself be the premium member to have full access to, and my 5 staff using the free version.
Anyone with an email @ your domain would be a paid member.
I was gonna upgrade my personal account but they don't do single user plans which is ridiculous, guess they don't get my money
Yes you need to purchase at least 2 seats which is a pain
how do they differentiate between a "user" and a "guest"
Do you mean a 'Member' (i.e. someone within your organisation that has an email @yourdomain). Whereas a guest is someone outside of your organisation with an email at another domain.
Hey,
Thank you for your video
I urgently need help.
In my business we are a total of 2 people who use Asana
I opened a number of projects, but I realized that there isn't a
limitation in the free subscription.
And when I wanted to check a paid subscription
I received a charge of $152 for
5-seat Business monthly plan for your workspace?
And I don't understand what it is?
I'd suggest reaching out to Asana directly to get help with billing.
