#### Asana は柔軟でスケール可能なワークフローでチームをサポート

#### Automation and AI

#### AI your whole team can actually use

Asana AI Teammates understand your goals, projects, and dependencies from day one—Microsoft’s Copilot relies on manual prompts, whereas Asana Teammates proactively understand your Work Graph.

Asana AI Teammates build shared memory that compounds across your whole team—Microsoft’s AI is session-based; once the chat ends, the context vanishes rather than building team-wide intelligence.

Every AI action is visible in your activity log, just like a human teammate—MS Planner attributes AI actions to individual users, blurring the line between human and automated work.

#### User experience and usability

#### Structure work with an adaptable interface

Asana provides a modern, visually intuitive interface with customizable project views, including lists, boards, calendars, and timelines, so teams can organize work in the way that fits their process best.

Microsoft Project and Microsoft Planner rely on a more complex scheduling-based interface, while Asana provides multiple project views that are flexible, accessible, and scalable across teams of all sizes.

Files, feedback, and conversations are directly linked to tasks and projects, making it easy to track progress, clarify next steps, and ensure everyone stays aligned, even as teams scale or work across departments.

MS Project and MS planner require teams to rely on separate tools like Teams or SharePoint for communication, whereas Asana keeps conversations, files, and updates directly within projects, making collaboration easier and providing full project visibility.

#### FAQ (よくある質問)

#### Migration &amp; Onboarding

#### How easy is it for my team to switch from Microsoft Project to Asana?

Switching from Microsoft Project to Asana is straightforward for most teams, thanks to Asana’s intuitive interface and comprehensive onboarding resources such as [Asana Academy](https://academy.asana.com/personal-productivity-in-asana-on-demand) and [ready-to-use templates](https://asana.com/templates). Most users can learn Asana in just a day or two, enabling even non-technical team members to become productive quickly through step-by-step [onboarding guidance](https://help.asana.com/s/getting-started). 

Microsoft Project, by contrast, typically requires more extensive training and ongoing maintenance, which can slow down adoption for teams that want to move quickly. Asana’s simpler setup and user-friendly workflows reduce onboarding friction, helping teams transition faster without relying heavily on specialized project management expertise.

#### What onboarding resources does Asana provide for new users?

Asana provides new users with a robust [onboarding experience](https://help.asana.com/s/getting-started) that includes the [Asana Academy](https://academy.asana.com/) for self-paced learning, live training sessions, and a library of ready-to-use templates and checklists for [project management](https://asana.com/features/project-management) and [task management](https://asana.com/features/project-management/tasks). These resources are designed to help teams of all backgrounds quickly adopt the platform, reduce the learning curve, and standardize onboarding across departments.

Microsoft Project does not offer comparable built-in onboarding resources and often requires users to rely on external documentation or third-party training. Asana’s centralized learning ecosystem makes it easier for teams to ramp up consistently, without added complexity or specialized support.

#### Can Asana integrate with Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, or other tools we use?

Asana integrates with over[400 business tools](https://asana.com/apps), including Microsoft Teams, Salesforce, Slack, Google Drive, and many more, so your team can connect work across platforms without disruption. This broad integration ecosystem supports workflow automation, cross-functional coordination, and tool consolidation for both technical and non-technical users through Asana’s core[project management](https://asana.com/features/project-management) capabilities and platform-wide[features](https://asana.com/features).

Microsoft Project is primarily limited to the Microsoft ecosystem and often requires additional workarounds or add-ons to connect with non-Microsoft tools. Asana’s wider integration network makes it easier for organizations with diverse tech stacks to unify workflows and reduce manual handoffs as teams scale.

#### Is Asana suitable for non-technical users or teams new to project management?

Asana is designed to be user-friendly and intuitive, making it easy for non-technical users and teams new to project management to get started quickly. Most people can learn the basics in a day or two, supported by step-by-step onboarding resources, ready-to-use [project templates](https://help.asana.com/s/article/create-projects-quickly-with-templates), and the [My Tasks](https://asana.com/features/project-management/my-tasks) view, with additional training available through the[Asana Academy](https://academy.asana.com/).

Microsoft Project is often complex for beginners and typically requires more time and technical knowledge to use effectively. Asana’s simpler workflows and built-in guidance make it easier for new users to manage tasks, stay organized, and adopt project management practices without a steep learning curve.

#### What support does Asana offer for change management and adoption?

Asana offers robust support for change management and adoption through a combination of [onboarding resources](https://help.asana.com/s/article/custom-onboarding), professional services, and a global partner network. Teams benefit from guided onboarding, [training](https://help.asana.com/s/getting-started), and expert-led change management to ensure a smooth transition, especially for those moving from legacy project management software like Microsoft Project. 

Unlike Microsoft Project, which does not explicitly offer change management support, Asana’s partner ecosystem and onboarding resources are designed to accelerate adoption and reduce risk for new users.

#### Collaboration &amp; Communication

#### How does Asana improve cross-team collaboration compared to Microsoft Project?

Asana improves cross-team collaboration by providing native communication tools, such as [Task Comments](https://help.asana.com/s/article/task-comments-and-attachments), [Project Messages](https://help.asana.com/s/article/messages), and [Status Updates](https://asana.com/features/project-management/status-updates), that keep all project discussions and updates in context for every team member. This unified workspace enables real-time collaboration, flexible workflows, and easy integration with tools like Microsoft Teams, supporting both project managers and team members in [managing complex projects](https://asana.com/features/project-management/tasks) efficiently. 

Microsoft Project has more limited collaboration capabilities and often relies on external tools or email for team communication, which can create silos and slow down project progress. Asana’s built-in messaging, commenting, and status tracking make it easier for teams to stay aligned, share updates instantly, and [coordinate work across functions](https://asana.com/features/project-management/tasks) without leaving the platform.

#### What features help teams stay aligned and maintain project visibility in Asana?

Asana helps teams stay aligned and maintain project visibility with features like[task management](https://asana.com/features/project-management/tasks), [multi-homing](https://help.asana.com/s/article/multi-home-tasks-to-avoid-information-silos) (so tasks can live in multiple projects at once), and[real-time dashboards](https://asana.com/features/goals-reporting/reporting-dashboards) that make it easy to track progress, priorities, and ownership as work happens. [Custom reporting](https://help.asana.com/s/article/universal-reporting) keeps stakeholders informed without relying on manual updates or constant status check-ins.

Microsoft Project often relies on manual tracking and siloed project management, making it harder for teams to achieve the same level of transparency and speed as work scales. Asana provides a more connected system where updates happen in real time, making it easier for cross-functional teams to stay aligned without chasing information across separate files or tools.

#### How does Asana support remote or distributed teams?

Asana provides a shared workspace where [remote and distributed teams](https://asana.com/uses/manage-remote-teams) can align on tasks, communicate in context, and track project progress from anywhere. Centralized dashboards, customizable notifications, and mobile access help ensure every team member stays informed and engaged, regardless of location, using features like [project dashboards](https://asana.com/features/project-management/projects) and [mobile apps](https://asana.com/features/project-management/mobile-desktop-apps). 

Microsoft Project does not explicitly support remote team workflows and remains primarily desktop-focused, making cross-location collaboration and real-time visibility more challenging compared to Asana’s cloud-based approach.

#### Can Asana replace email for project communication?

Asana helps teams move project communication out of email by centralizing comments, messages, and status updates directly within each project and task, so everyone stays aligned in context. This reduces the need for external email threads and minimizes context switching, making it easier to track progress and decisions as work happens. 

Microsoft Project typically relies on external email for updates and collaboration, while Asana offers a unified workspace that supports real-time, transparent [communication](https://help.asana.com/s/article/communicating-in-asana) through features like task comments and [project status updates](https://help.asana.com/s/article/project-progress-and-status-updates).

#### How does Asana help teams consolidate tools and reduce complexity?

Asana helps teams consolidate tools by providing a centralized workspace for [project management](https://asana.com/features/project-management), communication, and reporting, reducing the need for external email and minimizing context switching. This unified approach enables teams to manage projects, track progress, and [collaborate](https://asana.com/uses/team-collaboration) in real time—all within a single platform, supporting both small teams and large organizations. 

Microsoft Project often requires additional tools for collaboration and communication, while Asana brings these capabilities together in one place, making it easier to reduce complexity and improve efficiency.

#### Project Management &amp; Reporting

#### How does Asana support project planning and scheduling for agile teams?

Asana supports agile project planning and scheduling with adaptable [project views](https://asana.com/features/project-management/project-views)—including [Kanban boards](https://asana.com/uses/kanban-boards), [lists](https://help.asana.com/s/article/list-view), [timelines](https://help.asana.com/s/article/timeline), [calendars](https://help.asana.com/s/article/calendar-view), and [Gantt-style views](https://help.asana.com/s/article/gantt-view)—allowing teams to manage work in the format that fits their workflow. Agile teams can customize workflows, automate sprint ceremonies using Rules, track work across projects, and seamlessly blend agile and waterfall methodologies within one platform, making it easy to adjust priorities and monitor progress in real time.

Microsoft Project supports agile frameworks and sprint planning, but it remains rooted in traditional scheduling models and often requires more advanced configuration to adapt workflows. For agile or hybrid teams that need flexibility without complex setup, Asana provides deeper native support for modern planning approaches while maintaining clarity across both iterative and structured projects.

#### What reporting and analytics features does Asana offer for project tracking?

Asana offers customizable dashboards, universal reporting, and real-time analytics that help teams track project progress, monitor key metrics, and visualize work across multiple projects through [reporting dashboards](https://asana.com/features/goals-reporting/reporting-dashboards) and [portfolio management](https://asana.com/features/goals-reporting/portfolios). These features enable project managers and teams to make data-driven decisions quickly, without the complexity often found in traditional project management software. 

Microsoft Project requires more setup and technical expertise for similar reporting, while Asana delivers actionable insights with a user-friendly interface designed for both small teams and large organizations.

#### How does Asana help with resource management and workload balancing?

Asana helps teams manage resource allocation and workload balancing by providing real-time [workload visualization](https://asana.com/features/resource-management/workload) and [capacity planning tools](https://asana.com/features/resource-management/capacity-planning), allowing you to see each team member’s commitments and adjust assignments as priorities shift. These features enable project managers and department leaders to proactively prevent burnout and optimize team capacity, supporting both small teams and complex projects through workload management. 

Microsoft Project offers deeper resource scheduling, but its complexity can make cross-team collaboration and agile rebalancing more challenging compared to Asana’s intuitive approach.

#### Can Asana manage multiple projects for my organization?

Asana enables organizations to [manage multiple projects](https://asana.com/features/project-management/projects) and portfolios in one centralized platform, providing real-time visibility into progress, status, and ownership across all initiatives through dedicated [portfolio management features](https://asana.com/features/goals-reporting/portfolios). Teams can easily track, prioritize, and report on work at both the project and portfolio level, supporting cross-functional collaboration and standardized workflows. 

While Microsoft Project is designed for detailed project scheduling and resource allocation, it can be less agile and more complex to manage at scale compared to Asana’s centralized model.

#### How does Asana help teams track project progress and accountability?

Asana helps teams track project progress and accountability through [universal reporting](https://help.asana.com/s/article/universal-reporting), real-time [dashboards](https://asana.com/features/goals-reporting/reporting-dashboards), and intuitive status views that make it easy to monitor every stage of work. Teams can quickly see updates, identify blockers, and keep everyone aligned.

Microsoft Project relies more on manual reporting and can create silos, while Asana offers immediate visibility and actionable insights for both simple and complex projects.

#### Security, Compliance &amp; Admin

#### How does Asana support compliance for healthcare, government, or regulated industries?

Asana supports compliance for healthcare, government, and other regulated industries with standards such as [FedRAMP](https://help.asana.com/s/article/fedramp-compliance) and[GDPR](https://asana.com/privacy). [Asana Gov](https://asana.com/product/asana-gov) provides FIPS 140-2 encryption and NIST 800-53 alignment for public sector requirements, while robust [admin controls](https://asana.com/features/admin-security/admin-console) and detailed [compliance documentation](https://asana.com/uses/regulatory-compliance-management) help organizations manage sensitive data and workflows securely.

Microsoft Project supports compliance features, but Asana’s built-in tools and dedicated government environment simplify regulatory adherence. Teams in healthcare, government, and other regulated sectors can confidently track projects, manage access, and maintain security without relying on complex manual processes or additional software layers.

#### What security and privacy controls does Asana offer for my organization?

Asana offers granular, role-based [permissions](https://asana.com/features/admin-security/permissions) at the team, project, portfolio, and task level, allowing organizations to precisely control who can access, edit, or manage sensitive project data. These controls are supported by robust admin features and [compliance certifications](https://asana.com/trust) such as SOC 2, GDPR, and HIPAA, ensuring your project management environment meets strict security standards. 

Microsoft Project provides security controls within the broader Microsoft ecosystem, but governance capabilities can vary depending on deployment type and integration with other Microsoft services. Asana centralizes security, permissions, and compliance within a unified platform, making it easier for organizations to enforce policies, maintain visibility, and manage privacy requirements consistently across all projects.

#### Pricing &amp; Scalability

#### How does Asana’s pricing compare to Microsoft Project?

Asana offers transparent,[online pricing](https://asana.com/pricing) and includes a free plan for individuals and small teams, making it easy to understand costs and choose the right project management solution as your needs grow. This helps organizations evaluate budget impact quickly without hidden fees or complex purchasing steps.

Microsoft Project requires a paid subscription and often involves more complex licensing and cost structures, especially as usage expands across teams. Asana is generally easier to evaluate and scale from a budgeting perspective because pricing is publicly available and designed to support gradual adoption.

#### How does Asana scale as my organization grows?

Asana is designed to scale with your organization, offering a [flexible subscription model](https://asana.com/pricing) that lets you add users and upgrade capabilities as your needs evolve—without extra charges for integrations or storage. This approach supports teams of any size, from individuals to large enterprises, and helps you avoid the rigid licensing and hidden costs often found in legacy project management tools. 

Microsoft Project typically requires more complex licensing and can introduce additional costs as you grow, while Asana’s adaptable structure keeps scaling straightforward and cost-effective through features like [user management and plan upgrades](https://asana.com/features/project-management).
