FlowQi vs Asana
Asana keeps teams aligned on work. FlowQi keeps service businesses aligned on money. When invoices need to match hours, FlowQi has it — no bolt-ons needed.
One platform, everything included
CRM, projects, time tracking, and invoicing — fully integrated, no separate tools needed.
FlowQiAsana aligns teams on work. FlowQi aligns service businesses on money.
Asana is one of the best task and project management tools out there. Teams stay aligned. Work moves forward. It’s great — right up until the invoice needs to match the hours, and someone has to reconcile Asana with Harvest, with QuickBooks, with a spreadsheet that lives on one person’s laptop.
That’s the stack FlowQi removes. CRM, projects, time tracking and invoicing in one workflow, so the hours you log become the invoice you send.
Key differences
Scope of the platform
Asana is a project and task management tool. It does one thing well, but it does not include CRM, invoicing, or time tracking. You need to integrate separate tools for those workflows. FlowQi combines all of these in one platform, so data flows between client records, projects, timesheets, and invoices without integrations.
Built for project delivery vs task management
Asana excels at organizing tasks, tracking progress, and collaborating within teams. FlowQi goes beyond task management — it connects client relationships (CRM) to project delivery to billing, which is the workflow agencies and consultancies need most.
Time tracking
Asana does not include native time tracking. You need a third-party tool like Harvest or Toggl. FlowQi includes built-in time tracking and timesheets that connect directly to projects and generate invoices.
Pricing
Asana’s Premium plan starts at $10.99/user/month for basic features, with Business at $24.99/user/month for advanced features. FlowQi starts at €0 with Free, and Core is €25 per user per month — CRM, project management, time tracking, and invoicing.
Feature comparison

| Invoicing | Invoicing module, +€15 per user | Not available |
| AI assistant | Hummy, built into every paid plan | AI features from Starter |
| Work management at scale | Built for agencies | Proven across thousands of employees |
The last row is not an oversight. Asana wins there, and you should know that before you choose.

Who should choose FlowQi?
FlowQi is the better fit if you need more than project management. If your team tracks billable hours, manages client relationships, and sends invoices, FlowQi replaces Asana plus 3-4 other tools.
Who should choose Asana?
Asana is an excellent choice for teams whose primary problem is alignment, not billing — internal product teams, larger organisations where work moves across departments, or service teams that already have accounting and billing handled elsewhere. Its collaboration features, project views and cross-team visibility are genuinely best-in-class. Paired with Harvest for time and QuickBooks for invoicing, it works — if you don’t mind maintaining the stack.

Frequently asked questions
How does FlowQi pricing compare to Asana?
FlowQi Free is €0 for unlimited users, and Core is €25 per user per month — CRM, projects, time tracking, and invoicing. Asana starts at $10.99/user/month for Premium but lacks CRM, invoicing, and time tracking, so you need paid add-ons that increase total cost.
Can I migrate from Asana to FlowQi?
Yes. FlowQi supports importing projects and tasks. Since Asana does not include CRM or invoicing, the migration mainly involves project data, and you gain CRM and billing capabilities you did not have before.
What does FlowQi include that Asana does not?
FlowQi includes a built-in CRM with sales pipeline, native time tracking with timesheets, invoicing that generates bills from tracked hours, and a form builder. Asana focuses solely on task and project management.
Is FlowQi better for agencies than Asana?
For agencies that need to manage clients, track billable hours, and send invoices, FlowQi is the better fit. It connects the full workflow from CRM to project to timesheet to invoice. Asana requires third-party tools for each of those steps.
Does FlowQi have project views like Asana?
Yes. FlowQi offers multiple project views including list, board, and timeline. It also adds time tracking and invoicing directly within the project context, which Asana does not.
