Asana is one of the project management tools we use to help us serve you well. In today’s article, we take you on a virtual tour of the Asana interface – starting with the on-ramping process – showing just how much we go above and beyond to invest in state-of-the-art tools that allow us to give you peace of mind.
Here is a quick overview of our on-ramping process. We will go through the actual terms during our on-ramping meeting.
All About Your Association
So, your condo association will have two projects. The first project will be the sample or the name of your association. The second one – just so you don’t get confused – is in the HOA section.
On the bottom left corner, you can see there are different Teams, and we use Sample Association for our on-ramping. Any task or anything that needs to be done in your condo association moving forward after the on-ramping process will be in another team.

As you can see on the right, there is a new task. You can create a new task using the Add task feature and assign it to anyone who should take care of it. Here, you will also set the task’s Due date, add a Description, or upload an Attachment.
The Asana On-ramping Process
