Good question! Would love to hear how others have setup their product teams in general.
E.g. anyone using Notion or Coda or Monday? What is your setup like? (E.g. do you document your strategy / initiatives / projects / tasks all in one platform? Or do you just keep them in different products all loosely linked together?

I just use Jira and Confluence for everything. Asana has some nice features, but sadly haven't found a better app than Atlanssian's tools. A lot of room for improvement, but my team likes it and we can automate a lot of stuff. Definitely would love to hear how you are using Asana.

I’ll post here so people can chime in:
I understand that Asana now has the ability to roll projects up into Portfolios. How would you set this up:
1) Launching a new “Product X” that involves product/design/eng, operations, sales and partnerships, and go to market marketing strategies. All different workstreams but highly intertwined due to cross dependencies.
2) Do you create a new team for “Product X”, and then add “projects” for each of the teams above to track all their various work? Because it seems like you can only have a board/list per project. So that would mean that product could have a separate project/board for Sprint tasks, Discovery Backlog, Design Research tasks, etc?
3) And then you would roll all that up into one “Portfolio” so that you can then get a master view of all the Gantt charts and reporting into one view?
So, since Atlassians' confluence has great documentation capabilities, hire has great tickets and connected dependencies with other teams tickets, and everything can be connected to an overview dashboard of product vision, roadmap and backlog through Miro, I'm genuinely curious what makes people feel the need to switch away?
What are people not getting from Atlassian?

Now I remember the problem. You can't make it a company board. That's the issue. Once it's a company board they don't let you have epics in your kanban view. I don't understand why they do this.
And, to completely contradict all this, has anyone set up everything with Notion?
I have a feeling they could do it all, connect to Miro, and have a much better way of handling the experience.
A few months ago, I evaluated Notion vs Coda. Coda was definitely ahead in many ways, but was lacking in a fundamental way - I could not make a table entry into a page, which is the simplest thing in Notion.
Notion is currently being used in my team for collecting feedback / ideas from stakeholders/ users and connecting them to the projects the PM team is working on. It’s not the greatest, but we need to go from 0 to 1 and that was made easier with Notion.
Ultimately, it depends upon what you need.
