Asana alternative
The Asana alternative
built for marketing agencies.
Asana is a polished work management tool known for its clean interface and reliable task tracking. It is strongest for internal teams coordinating projects and processes at scale.
What Asana does well
- Clean, fast interface that teams actually adopt
- Mature workflows, forms and automation rules
- Strong portfolio and workload views for managers
Where agencies feel the gaps
- No concept of a client with brand context attached to the work
- Content creation, approvals and publishing happen in other tools
- Reporting is about project status, not marketing results for a client
Side by side
What each is
designed around.
| Chillhi | Asana | |
|---|---|---|
| Built for | Marketing agencies running recurring client work | Internal work and project coordination |
| Pricing model | Per-client plans with unlimited team members, plus a free one-client plan | Per seat, per month |
| Client onboarding and context | Built in: client profiles with brand voice, assets, goals and budgets | Projects and forms; no client profiles |
| AI content creation | Built in: Claude, ChatGPT and Gemini, briefed with the client context | General AI features in paid plans |
| Client approvals | Built in: share links clients can approve without logging in | Task approvals for internal workflows |
| Content scheduling | Built in, and nothing goes out before approval | Not built in; via integrations |
| Client reporting | Built in: live shareable client reports, Google Analytics connected today | Project status dashboards, not client marketing reports |
Both products evolve. This reflects what each is built around rather than a full feature inventory; check Asana's site for their current details, and Chillhi's integrations page for what is live in Chillhi today.
Choose Asana if
- You mostly coordinate internal projects and processes
- Your organisation already runs on Asana and the work is not client-based
- You need enterprise-grade admin controls across many departments
Choose Chillhi if
- Tasks are only one part of your job next to content, approvals and reporting
- You want the AI briefed on each client instead of pasting context into a chatbot
- You want one flat bill for the whole stack rather than seats to manage
