Asana
Asana is the shared task list for your team, where you can plan, organize & stay in sync on everything.As fast as a text editor. Plenty of keyboard shortcuts, fewer page loads and mouse clicks. Asana is one app that won't get in your way.

ZenHub
Agile Project Management inside GitHub. ZenHub is more than “integrated”: it runs natively in GitHub’s interface. Stop context switching with third-party tools and unite your team where they already work: GitHub.

Asana and ZenHub are both project management tools, but thinking of them in the same breath is a bit like comparing a well-organized, artisanal cheese shop to a sleek, automated spaceship repair bay. Asana is the cheese shop: bursting with variety, offering everything from task assignments and deadlines to integrations with the kinds of apps you never knew you needed. It’s designed to help teams organize, collaborate and, perhaps, wonder at the sheer number of ways one can display a to-do list. Flexible views, colorful charts—it's all very civilized.

ZenHub, on the other hand, is for software developers who don’t have time for artisanal anything. Seamlessly bolted onto GitHub like a high-performance thruster, ZenHub focuses entirely on getting code from point A to point B without exploding along the way. Agile tools like Kanban boards and sprint planning are built right into the familiar GitHub interface, so developers never have to leave the comfort of their code to deal with something as trivial as project management.

In short, while Asana offers you a delightful array of options and a pleasant ambiance in which to juggle projects of all shapes and sizes, ZenHub straps you into your GitHub cockpit and says, "Let’s go, there’s work to be done."
