Quick Answer
Asana is a well-regarded project management tool priced from roughly $10.99 to $24.99 per user per month, with time tracking and approval workflows often gated to higher tiers. Crittiks includes comparable project management inside a flat-priced tier that also covers CRM, communications, finance, admin, and AI, starting at $99.95/month for up to 8 seats.
Crittiks vs. Asana: What Changes When You Add Sales, Finance, and Signing
Asana is a genuinely good task and project tool — boards, timelines, dependencies, all solid. What it doesn’t do is know anything about the client relationship that project belongs to, or the invoice that should follow when it’s done.
What Asana Actually Offers
Asana offers project management, timelines, and dependency tracking, with pricing generally running $10.99–24.99/user/month, with approval workflows and advanced reporting often reserved for its Advanced/Enterprise tiers.
Where Asana Falls Short for a Small Business
Asana’s time tracking and formal approval workflows are commonly gated to higher-priced tiers. And Asana has no CRM, no signing tool, and no invoicing — a business using it for delivery still needs three more separate tools.
How Crittiks Compares
| Crittiks | Asana | |
|---|---|---|
| 8-seat team cost | $99.95/mo (Pro), full feature set | $87.92/mo (Starter, 8 x $10.99) — approvals gated higher |
| Beyond projects | 5 more suites included on the same tier | Project management only |
| Migration | Free import | Manual CSV export only |
The Real Cost Difference
A 5-person team on Asana’s Advanced tier (needed for approvals and time tracking) runs roughly $125/month for project management alone. Crittiks Pro delivers project management plus five other suites for $99.95/month flat.
Time Lost Switching Between Tools
Client approvals gated behind Asana’s higher tier still don’t connect to a signed contract or an invoice — those live in entirely separate systems regardless of which Asana tier you’re on.
