Trello vs Asana, the better choice?

As an academic managing multiple projects, I often find myself in need of a system that combines a basic task list (weekly, today, and done) with a time-blocking feature that allows me to track my progress throughout the day. Are there any productivity apps that can cater to these requirements?

Additionally, I'm curious if there is a strong preference among the members of this mastermind regarding which app works best for these specific needs.

As someone who has used both Trello and Asana, I can offer some insights. Trello's Kanban-style boards are great for organizing tasks and tracking progress visually, while Asana's robust features like custom fields and timelines make it ideal for managing complex projects with specific time-blocking needs. It really comes down to personal preference and the level of detail you require.
