Part of my job at my company is to find and implement IT solutions. I've recently been exposed to an overwhelming amount of SaaS, one of them being Asana, which seems great.
I was debating putting this in the Gear/Software forum, but it's really not a question about the software in particular. My question is: How do you use task management software in conjunction with project management software?
In the past, my "project management tools" have always fit neatly into the Project Support Material category (e.g., mind maps, outlines, roadmaps, work breakdowns, checklists, white boards). However, software such as Asana is not intended to be used as mere reference (it's not just brainstorming and project schedules) -- it is really more of a collaborative task management app. So what do you do? Do you keep track of the project on your Projects list but make some kind of note that the project is being tracked elsewhere?
