Asana

Manage your team's work, projects, and tasks

Asana is a mature project management tool with portfolios, goals, workload management, and robust reporting. Strong for cross-functional teams but complex to set up well.

API is decent but the tool itself is overkill for dev teams. Linear or GitHub Projects do the job with less overhead.

Best for large orgs with complex cross-team projects, overkill for small startups
