Have always had problems with asana.
It was always to limited for _my_ use-case (as a developer), and how other teams I've worked with did use it was awful. asana lacks granularity, or anything meaningful in terms of enforceable process.
To me, asana is a glorified to-do list, not a project management tool. Their reliability was awful as well, having project-based outages for ~10 mins, multiple times a day wasn't leaving a good taste in my mouth.

You can try out https://zenkit.com. Zenkit might fit more to your needs. More data views and way more flexible than Asana.
Cheers, will have to investigate.

Curious about what ended up working for you? What project management app are you using now?
At that company we moved onto blossom.io for 2 months to see how we'd fit. It works well, more of what we want, but we had problems with updates/collaboration (visibility)/issue linking/etc. We worked actively with their product team, but feature delivery was a little slow - would reconsider going back though. We moved onto YouTrack afterwards - afaik, they're still there.
Where I currently work, we use JIRA.
