Trello and Asana are two fantastic project management tools that will help you be more organized, productive and hit your biggest goals. For a long time, I was a happy Trello user. BUT I finally made the switch to Asana and it works much better for me!
I'd love to hear from you in the comments - what project management tool are you using right now? Trello? Asana? Something else? If you are using Trello right now, have I convinced you to switch to Asana?

@Marcie Meredith haha sorry Marcie!! 😉 A bit of effort to change but soooo worth it! :)
I am researching which program to try and I see that there is a google chrome extension for Trello that creates check-boxes. (what you mentioned you were missing at minute 3) It shows them on the card without having to click on it and lets you see them crossed off. It's called Tasks for Trello! There might be an extension to alter the calendar view as well.
Can we build dashboard like Smartsheet in Asana or any other software?
You all probably dont give a damn but does anyone know of a way to get back into an instagram account??
I was stupid lost the account password. I appreciate any help you can give me.
@Lawson Jaziel instablaster =)
Thanks for the love, Louise! Really appreciate it.
OMG, you read my mind, this is exactly what I needed and answered all of my questions and then some, I am a list person as well, but I love to color code and I really wanted to see everything in once place and also have a calendar view! Thank you so very much for such a detailed comparison!
where do you find the calendar view? would yuo plz mention
Either Trello had listened to you or you did not know at the time but when you complete a due date - which you can tick from the card. In the calendar view it shows as fade out and strike out. Also, rather than using one board for each project. I recommend you use one board and use Cards as projects. then you can create checklists.
I agree with the last past completely
I'm totally a checklist person and need to see priority and deadline. This was super timely and pertinent for me. Thank you🙏🙏🙏
I never comment on videos but I've been watching tutorials all morning trying to figure out which platform to move my business planning too. I watched loads about Trello and really liked it, but something about it just didn't sit right with how my brain works. Then came across your video and these are exactly my problems with Trello! I'm a VA, I have a lot going on at once and I need to visually see those checked off and completed tasks and to see the completed ones in my calendar for my own peace of mind. So thank you for this, you've made my decision a lot easier!!
This was SO HELPFUL to deciding to go with ASANA. My brain works so similarly. Thank you!
Loved your review. Super simple and I love the list & pictures / boxes of Asana.
Thank you for this video! I was saying yes to all you have mentioned. I have been using Trello for years, and I have so many boards, then spend so many hours trying to organize them! I will definitely give ASANA a try. I feel this would also be a way better fit for me!
This video definitely saved me from months of frustration! I just signed up for a Trello account, and in starting to set up boards, was not intuitively understanding the workflow. Your video described why I was struggling to love it. I’m so glad I didn’t invest any more time in it and will be trying Asana today. I’m sure Trello is wonderful for some - my brain just wasn’t connecting with it as easily. Thank you for this fantastic information!!!!
Love the detail, Louise, thank you... this has answered so many questions re the two systems. :)
Great video! I used Asana before and I was considering now moving to Trello. I'm glad I saw this video before I made the switch. I will continue with Asana :D
This was a great review, I agree I like the features of Asana more overall.
You've answered my question, thank you ❤️ and definitely Asana for me then ☺️😘
Oh my goodness. Thank you. All I hear about from everyone is how much they love Trello & I have tried so hard but my brain is just wired differently! Honestly, this video was exactly the info I needed to make an educated decision and stop wasting my time throwing spaghetti at the wall just trying to understand how to USE Trello. I'm immediately signing up for Asana. Again, thank you. Also, this video was enough to make me subscribe to your channel -- it's not often I come across other online business owners whose minds work like mine. Well done and have I said Thank You yet???
Hmm... I am going to give Asana a try. Both look great, but seems as if Asana has more options. Great video! Thanks!🥰
You're welcome! Agreed - both are good but Asana has my ❤️
OHMY GOSH!! More asana videos!! Love it, Louise!
Woot woot!! 🎉 They are coming your way soon! 😀👏
I'm about to sign up for a free Asana trial today! I've been using Trello but my business coach is suggesting Asana. You're video is helping me follow through - seems like a good switch 😀
Very small things do matter. Absolutely agreed while seeing your monthly calendar. Thanks Louise!
Wow! Thank you for this video it was just want I needed!
Thanks for your video. You have pinpointed exactly the same features I didn't like about Trello. The one about archiving the tasks when done didn't help me getting track of what was done and when. Super good recommendations.
Thank you! This really helps me decide. Asana sounds exactly what I'm looking for.
Yay! I'm so glad :)
Great video Louise! Thank you for the help.
I was searching for videos about how Trello works, to finally start using it. I saw this as recommended. I'm so glad I checked it out. You did the research and work to put this video together. The differences between the two, the rewarding nature of finishing tasks, and the calendar view in particular have made me decide to switch to Asana. This video is proper mint, mate.
Ok... so.... Instantly love you. This was SO helpful! I seriously am so glad I found your channel !
Yay! Me too!! Welcome 💛
Excellent video, it helped a lot! Thanks for sharing!
That's exactly what I needed to know! Thank you!
Loved this thank you Louise you have convinced me to use Asana
Very helpful Ready to try Asana for the same reasons as you! BTW, you are a natural on video, so engaging and easy to follow. Thanks for the tips.
Great video! Just what I was looking for....I'm switching today!
Thank you for the video. I was convinced to stick with Asana. Started using it at work years ago when I worked in events and use it now for my new position (although not as date- and time-focused) and for home and artistic projects. I too would really like having the option of adding my graphic of choice behind my projects but hey... there's always a trade off.
Outstanding overview! Thank you!
THANK YOU! Have just completed your 5 day intro to Asana course! This was the last q I had. THANK YOU!
YAY!! So happy to have you in Uplevel with Asana Tiare! 👏👏👏
THANK YOU THANK YOU....I've been spending hours trying to figure out which tool to use and this video helped enormously. I am similar to you in liking to do lists and the calendar view. You just clarified precisely that Asana is better for me.
Woohoo! I'm so glad I could help 🙌
great video! Really nice comparison and I can understand why you have switched. Haven't decided for myself yet.
PS: Great outro music !
I've used both Trello and Asana but not for a while. Thanks for this video. I'm going to start using Asana again today. And I subscribed to your videos. You do a great job of keeping things simple
Yay!! I'm so glad that I could help! 😊 Thanks for subscribing!!
Great video Louise . I also made the switch for all the reasons you mentioned. As a virtual assistant I tell my clients always to work with whatever project management tool is intuitive for them!
Great advice!! 🙂
I appreciated the fact that you spoke of how things worked differently in the two rather than just bashing one and praising the other. I'm going to watch your getting started with Asana video to see how this actually works. The calendar view was *way* to busy in Asana with all the colors; however, that may wind up being useful for the visual reference when I learn what the various colors mean.
This was a great video, you broke down Asana very well. I've been helping companies develop their Asana infrastructures for about a year and am asked frequently about how it compares to Trello. This video gave me some great talking point, much appreciated. Keep up the good work!
Thanks a lot Jeremy! Hopefully this helps convince a few future clients to go with Asana :)
I feel the same like u when I using Trello so I’ll try Asana, thanks a lot for the review 😊
Thats amazing. I'll give Asana a try. Looks great working with this program
Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this topic. You pointed out some important details that make Asana a better UX overall.
Thanks Miguel! 🙌
I hadn’t used either but I look forward to giving Asana a try due to the info you shared in this vid! My very first time on your channel- enjoyed! 🌸
Yay! Thanks so much for being here! xx
This is exactly what I wanted to know! Thank you!!! My brain works like yours!
Yay!! I'm glad it was helpful 💕 You're so welcome!
Thank you for such excellent video, was really with the idea of using trello but after watching this, totally would move to Asana.
I haven't really used either task management platform, so this helped with seeing the differences! A video with all the features of Asana and the best way to use it would be super helpful. Love that you're including extra videos like these. I've been loving your videos, so it's nice being able to come here for extra tips besides only Squarespace tutorials (which have also been very appreciated, as I'm not super tech savvy yet 😄).
Aw you're so sweet!! Yes, I def want to be doing way more than just Squarespace so let me know if you have any specific requests! (anything tech + systems or entrepreneurship related). Thanks so much for being here and watching Krista 💖
And just like that you just helped me choosing de right one for me! Thank you!
Yay! I'm so glad it was helpful! 🙌
Hi Louise, thanks for sharing such nice and precise comparasion between these two productive tools. I am (was) using Trello but you already changed my mind. Main points...for every single task and sub.task, you can set dates (hour) and time in Asana. And the ability of watching all tasks at once, all together...is fantastic with Asana. Another thing: you are able to attach files into Asana (not possible with Trello)...with Asana, you can print (pdf file) and see all details of whole project...it is not possible with Trello, at least not so organized as Asana. All regards to you and thanks again for sharing!
This was super helpful! Not to mention Asana was free. You've saved the day for me once again. LOL
Great video, thank you very much. I agree and I've used both too. I've always liked to write things down and use a checklist so I prefer Asana.
Thank you. You answered a bunch of my questions.
Great review and mini tutorial! Trying to get my hot mess life in order for 2021! I have used Asana and was looking at trello, but so glad I found your video. I’m a get back into Asana and try to utilize it more efficiently. Thank you! ❤️
You're so welcome!! 💖
Thanks this video was WELL explained and you saved me hours trying to setup both and go through it myself! lol Thanks!!!
Hehe that was my goal!! Definitely want to do more software comparisons in the future because of this!
Thank you for this video. Great info that is helping me a lot. Cheers!
You're very welcome!!
Excellent video. Succinct, easy to follow, pleasure to listen too. I like your smile.
Watched 3 Trello videos plus this video, and am going for Asana. Thanks!
Woohoo! I'm so glad it was helpful 🙌 #TeamAsana
Super impressive post-it display!!!! I used to have my entire desk plastered with post-its.
I love Asana and need both views to work in, thank you for the clarification on both! It helps with my decision.
Wicked!! Happy I could help Shannon 💖
This was incredibly helpful in making my decision, thank you!
You're very welcome!!
thank you! I needed to quickly figure out which one works best for me and you had the same opinions I do! I will try Asana and watch you next video on it on how to get started!
Yay!! I'm glad it was helpful 💕
Thanks for the info! It was quite helpful.
Merci. thanks this helps a lot. This is more what I was looking for.
Woohoo! I'm so glad 🙌
thank you Louise! I'm currently researching which tool would best suit my needs than I came across your video. I love the visual nature of Trello, but the tracking of multiple boards in multiple places can be tricking. AND I too love to see the reward of task completion as you pointed out in Asana - keeps me motivated toward achieving goals. I'm checking out Asana now :)
Woohoo! I hope you love it!
My brain works like yours! I'm going for Asana. Thanks so much for a clear presentation!👍
You're so welcome, Shaun! Asana is a game changer 🎉🙌 If you need any assistance setting your Asana up, I do have a program that just launched on Friday called Uplevel With Asana! You can check it out here: www.uplevelwithasana.com
Thank you! Just what I needed. Will switch to Asana right away!
Woohoo! So exciting 🙌
Not used either but I've taken your word and signed up for the basic Asana for me it will be more of a basic to-do list tool for now. Thanks~
Woohoo!! Hope it makes a huge difference for you even as a simple to-do list! ✅
I've been searching for a good reason to decide between Asana & Trello, thanks!
Awesome!! Happy I could help 🙌
Excellent thanks for the review !
I feel like you are speaking to my brain with this comparison, because you outline the small details that made Trello inefficient for me in which made me work in my business and not on my business. I'd try and optimize it with Butler and a lot of other odd automation methods, yet all those things are solved and eliminated for me in Asana, so thank you for this video! :)
Woot woot - love hearing that! Since our brains clearly work the same way, you're going to love Asana (don't even get me started on all the cool tricks in there!! 🙌)
Thank you this video is well explained. Louise mentioned it was difficult to see all cards from multiple boards in a single view. If you need that, then Bridge24 is the reporting tool you need to boost your Trello experience. Bridge24 also works the same for Asana.
It would be good to see these from a client perspective. Thanks for the video.
I really tried to make Trello work, but you hit the nail on the head. I’m a total list person. I need that satisfaction of box checking and visual organizing in my calendar. SOOO glad I found this on the first day of 2021. I’m pumped!
WAHOO!!! 🙌⚡️ Here's to a great 2021!
You can use powerups to show list view in trello
I create a completed list, and now with the Butler addition, you can ask "marked completed tasks" to auto-switch to the completed list! But I'm debated to switch, great video!
You hit the two biggest problems I have with Trello. That's really helpful! I don't look forward to switching - and I started with Freedcamp! - but so be it. Great video!
I'm glad Ian! How are you liking Freedcamp so far? Not going to lie, I hadn't heard of it!
How are you liking freedcamp
I almost never comment on videos. However, this content was incredibly helpful for a small business owner who needs a high level overview without getting into the weeds of research every time I need a new resource.
I’ve used Trello and couldn’t quite understand why it wasn’t working for me but, you articulated this so well. The boards get overwhelming and it’s hard to feel accomplished. That’s exactly right. Lists definitely work better for me and for that, I’m going to give Asana a try. Thank you for sharing.
Hey Delrisha! I'm so happy that you found this review helpful and felt heard 💛 It can be too much! I still love Asana over here - and I hope you come to love it too! xx
Thank you Louise! Definitely switching to Asana! :)
Woohoo! So exciting 🙌 Asana is so great!
Thanks for your review. I've just been thinking that Trello doesn´t fix to my needs because of Task archive sistem and the calendar view. You definetly convinced me. Now is the time to learn how to use Asana
where do you find the calendar view? would yuo plz mention
After being a Trello user for quite some time on Louise's recommendation I tried Asana... Not going back. Another great recommendation. Thanks Louise.
Woohoo! I'm so glad 🙌
Wow, I had the same problems. Totally agree with everything u said, no accomplishment when archiving, calendar view not great... thanks, will give it a try
SOLD! Thanks for the thorough review.
Yay!! I'm so glad 😊
3:03 I know what you mean like that the feeling of fulfillment of checking something off and being able to se it checked off lol
I love your explanation and I will give it a try!, I love your Smile :) Subscribed!
Wahoo! Welcome!! So glad to have you here 🙌
very nice video, exactly what I was looking for, thanks! :)
Woohoo! I'm so glad 🙌
A new member of asana thanks . Lets see if i can create a work of art here.
This video has given me a better comparison of the 2 platforms. Thank you.
I'm so glad! 😃
I've been a user of Trello for years now. I had heard about Asana, but hadn't used it until two days ago that a customer sent me an invitation to work on Asana together. Your thoughts resonate with mine! Looks like I'm gonna migrate from Trello to Asana! I personally love it has scrum and kanban templates since I work with agility frameworks.
Great video Louise. Exactly, these are the reasons why I left Trello. But we switched to Restyaboard. It works perfectly for us.
I'm glad to hear this resonated with you, Ruth! 🙂
thanks louise henry you answered all my queries
Yay! I'm so glad to hear that! 🙌
This has been really helpful. I always use Trello with groups, however. I find that having cards that need to be moved between steps of a multi-step task helps keep people from duplicating their efforts and keeps everyone on the same page. Having the ability to leave notes on the Cards is also really helpful. In most cases, it's a volunteer organization, where the same tasks need to be duplicated for every new project. Having the ability to leave those notes really helps volunteers step up and know what they're doing.
Is this not possible in Asana?
I enjoy Asana so much more. Easier to see everything in one place and takes the sorting work out of the boards without burring important misc things. Thanks for the walk through
Fantastic review! Thank you :)
You're very welcome!!
Thank you.
That was very helpful.
My mind works like yours, and that is the main reason that I have found Trello and other, similar, products unsatisfactory. Asana looks like the best of the bunch so far, so I am going to give it a go.
I would be interested to hear about the differences between the paid and free plans in Asana, and what value you feel the paid plans might give you (or not give you), as someone using it in the context(s) you do.
I like this video. Thank you :) I'm moving to Asana now from the vintage Trello :D
Woohooo!! That's so exciting! #TeamAsana over here ⚡️
I faced similar issue with trello. That's the reason i couldn't use it to work as well. Definitely will try Asana. Thanks!
Yay!! That is great. Best of luck!
Thanks for your hard work.
You're very welcome! So glad you enjoyed it!
Thanks, good video. I'm also more of a list person - so I'm going to give Asana I try.
Woohoo! Enjoy 🙌
Thorough and concise 👌👌👌👌
New Year’s resolution is to master Asana, coming from a Trello user for my projects, thanks!👍🏽
Subscribed too 🙂
Wahoo! Welcome!! So glad to have you here 🙌 And what a great goal for 2023!!
@@louisehenry :D
Nice comparison, and agree with you. BTW you can change your background in Asana via your profile settings (image choice may be limited).
Oh sweet, that definitely helps. Thank you for letting know Michael 😃 Any other special Asana hacks I should know about?
I have used Trello and I'm convinced, my brain works like yours LOL! Gonna check out one more PM software, but pretty sure I'm leaning toward Asana. Thanks!
Hehe, right?! I'm still loving Asana and use it in my business daily!!
I think you hit the nail right on the head with this video! Trello is very aesthetically appealing, particularly to people with a business in the 'design' sphere, which I am in. However, Asana is a better user experience and seems to have a better sense of gratification when completing tasks and projects! I was considering switching to Trello simply for the design component, but your video convinced me to stick with Asana! Thanks so much for making it simple for me :)
Woohoo! I'm so glad to hear that, Jordyn! Asana will always be my go-to 🥰
