Asana Tracks Tasks Brilliantly. But Never Helps You Think Strategically.

What strategic frameworks does Waymaker include that Asana doesn't?

Waymaker includes 30+ proven business frameworks: OKRs, Value Proposition Canvas, Business Model Canvas, SWOT Analysis, Strategic Positioning, Market Analysis, Competitive Analysis, and more.

Asana has none of these. It tracks tasks but never helps you think strategically about what tasks matter, why they matter, or how they connect to business outcomes. Waymaker helps you think AND execute.

Can I import my Asana projects and tasks?

Yes. Waymaker supports Asana project exports. We provide migration assistance for teams of 20+ users, including a dedicated onboarding call to help you transition your projects, tasks, and team structure.

Most teams are fully operational in 1-2 days. Since Asana is primarily task tracking, migration is straightforward. You'll gain strategic frameworks and cross-functional sync that Asana can't provide.

How does Waymaker Sync solve the "devs in isolation" problem?

Waymaker Sync is the IDE ↔ Commander bridge. Developers work with AI in their IDE (VS Code, Cursor, Windsurf), and their PRDs, tasks, session briefs, and progress automatically sync to Commander where marketing, leadership, and ops see it in real-time.

Asana can't do this because it's disconnected from developer workflows. With Waymaker, no more "product built, zero marketing ready" problem. Everyone stays in sync on product, roadmap, and execution.

Asana's task management is excellent. Can Waymaker match it?

Honest answer: Yes. Waymaker has professional taskboards with dependencies, Gantt charts, milestones, and all the task management features Asana has. We're not asking you to downgrade on task management.

The difference: We also give you strategic frameworks, cross-functional sync, real-time documentation, and AI with business memory. You get Asana-level task management PLUS everything Asana is missing.

Do I still need Notion and ChatGPT?

No. Waymaker includes real-time documentation (replaces Notion), AI with persistent organizational memory (replaces ChatGPT Team), and strategic frameworks (no equivalent in your current stack).

Asana forces you to keep multiple tools because it only does task tracking. Waymaker actually delivers on the "all-in-one" promise: tasks, docs, strategy, AI, and cross-functional sync in one platform.

We've heavily customized Asana. Will we lose that?

Here's the question: Is your Asana customization adding strategic value, or just compensating for what Asana lacks? Most teams customize Asana to DIY frameworks, documentation, and cross-functional visibility—all things Waymaker provides natively.

You'll migrate your projects and tasks easily. You'll gain native strategic frameworks instead of custom fields pretending to be frameworks. And you'll eliminate the 3-4 other tools you're paying for alongside Asana.

How does Waymaker track outcomes, not just task completion?

Waymaker connects tasks to OKRs, KPIs, and strategic outcomes. You can see: Are we completing tasks that actually move business metrics? Are we achieving strategic goals, not just finishing task lists?

Asana shows "tasks complete" but can't tell you if you're winning strategically. Teams finish 100% of Asana tasks and still miss goals. Waymaker ensures the work you're doing matters.

Is Waymaker actually cheaper than our Asana stack?

Let's do the math. If you're using:

Waymaker: $19/user (56% savings, everything included)

You're consolidating 4 tools, gaining strategic intelligence with 30+ frameworks, getting Waymaker Sync for cross-functional alignment, and saving 56%. Cheaper AND infinitely more capable.
