Movement

This is the first edition on this tier, so no move can be computed for Asana yet. The next is due October 1, 2026. From the next edition this section shows, per buyer segment, whether its share moved by more than the measured noise floor.

What the models said for it

Verbatim evidence the judge attached to positive labels.

“If you want one default recommendation without more context, choose Asana for a mid-sized B2B team.” Perplexity Sonar · Content marketing · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“My advice: For a mid-sized B2B company, I usually recommend starting with Asana (for organization)” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Content marketing · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“I'd recommend Asana as the best all-around content planning and production tool” GPT-5.4 mini · Content marketing · paraphrase prompt · first choice
“Asana — Best Overall for Mid-Sized B2B Teams” MiniMax M2.5 · Content marketing · paraphrase prompt · first choice

And against it

Verbatim evidence attached to negative labels. A warning on a product with few labels is a warning; on a product with many, it is one voice among them.

“Avoid: Jira / Trello / Asana (As primary KBs)” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Knowledge base · negative prompt · hard negative
“Cheaper (~$10-25/user/mo), flexible for workflows, but generic—not marketing-native.” Grok 4.1 Fast · Content marketing · paraphrase prompt · soft negative
“alternative to pricey project management software like Monday or Asana” Qwen 3.7 Flash · Content marketing · budget prompt · soft negative

What carried it into the answer

The sites and pages cited by the answers that named Asana. A fact about retrieval, not a lever on the model.

Citations exist only for the models that return a source list, four of the twelve in this edition, so these counts come from 7 of the 33 answers that named Asana and are not a share of its labels.

Is this your product?

Claim this page

Claiming is free and changes nothing in the data. A claimed page shows a verified contact who is told when each edition publishes and when Asana's standing changes by more than the noise floor; the right to propose corrections to the vendor table, meaning names the judge wrote that should or should not read as Asana, applied by version and listed in the change log; and a one-line description supplied by the vendor and marked as such.

It does not get any change to labels, shares or verdicts, any preview, or any say over which quotes appear. A verification link goes to your work email; an address at asana.com is approved on the spot, any other address is reviewed by hand.

Your name and company appear on the claimed page, or the company alone if you ask below. A title and a LinkedIn address appear there too if you give them, and are left off if you do not. Your email address is never published.
