We grew from 20 to 80 people on Asana and it did not fall over. The task model is strict about ownership and dates, and that strictness is what holds up when the volume gets real.
Pros
Workload management shows who is actually overcommitted.
Cons
The interface is austere and some teams find it cold.

The notification volume made people mute it
Out of the box the notifications are relentless. Half the team muted Asana within a month, which defeats the entire purpose. It is configurable, but the defaults train people to ignore it.
Pros
The task model is strict: one owner, one due date, no ambiguity.
Cons
Custom fields are limited compared with a fully flexible board tool.

We grew from 20 to 80 people on Asana and it did not fall over. The task model is strict about ownership and dates, and that strictness is what holds up when the volume gets real.
Pros
It holds up past 50 people where lighter tools fall apart.
Cons
There is no native time tracking, which is a real gap for agencies.

One owner, one due date, no ambiguity
Every task has exactly one owner. That sounds small and it ended about half the arguments we used to have about who was doing what.
Pros
Workload management shows who is actually overcommitted.
Cons
Default notification volume is high enough that people mute it.

Pros
The free tier is usable for up to 10 teammates.

The jump from free to Starter is steep, and portfolios need Advanced.

One owner, one due date, no ambiguity
Portfolios are why we are here. My department heads can see whether the work actually ladders up to the quarterly goals, and the answer is sometimes no, which is exactly the point. No other tool in this bracket does this properly.
Pros

Structured, and a bit joyless
Free is genuinely good up to ten people. Then Starter is a real jump, and the features you probably want, portfolios and goals, are on Advanced, another jump again. Map your needs to tiers before you plan the budget.

We are an agency and we bill hours. Asana has no native time tracking, so we pay for a second tool and reconcile between them. For a product at this price that is a strange hole and it nearly disqualified it.

There is no native time tracking, which is a real gap for agencies.
