Asana vs Trello: our take

Asana and Trello tie at 72/100, so the decision comes down entirely to which axes you weigh most.

Asana pulls ahead on Views and Power (Views 9 vs 6), which makes it the stronger pick for teams.

Trello pulls ahead on Value and Ease (Value 8 vs 6), which makes it the stronger pick for undefined.

The clearest divide is Views (Asana 9, Trello 6). If that axis is central to how you work, let it settle the choice.

On price they're close: Asana is Free · $11/mo and Trello is Free · $5/mo, so cost is unlikely to decide it.
