    Hello all, We're looking at some task/project solutions and are liking the look of Asana, especially with custom saveable templates for things like gifts over a certain dollar value, bequests, or any other task we have that spans multiple departments or people. Forms also look handy for content or report requests. Was wondering if anyone can speak to its long term effectiveness and any gotchas that I'm not seeing in my early research. Thank you all!

    David, I can't speak to Asana, as I just took it for a test drive when you posted, but... Have you looked at Air Table <https://airtable.com/>? The free version has all the functionality you are looking for, while it seems like you would need to pay $9.99 p/month p/user in Asana. We use airtable for projects, distribution of responsibilities, applicant tracking, work flows, etc. It has the look and feel of a spreadsheet, so the learning curve isn't too high. There is more that you can do with it in a paid version, but it isn't really necessary. If you are interested, message me directly and I can share a base or two with you to view so you can see how it works.
