If you use Asana&#8217;s paid package, then you can add an unlimited number of employees to your platform team, thereby transferring entire departments or divisions to the digital platform.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you transfer your company&#8217;s work to the Asana app, you can create organisations and sub-organisations, depending on the number of employees. Also, when you start working with Asana, you have a Workspace, which has some differences from the concept of organisation. What is the difference between these two concepts and how this knowledge will help you reduce the cost of your paid Asana plan, we explain below.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Workspace and Organisation \u2013 what is the difference?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Asana structure is divided into users plus an individual workspace for each of these users. This space is called a domain and is logically divided into two types: Organization and Workspace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We will look at each of these concepts in detail next, starting with the Workspace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Workspace\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A workspace is created for a group of people who are working on one project or task. The users do not have to be connected to the same company domain or corporate email, but in order for a person to be notified of project updates, he must be invited to the project by the organizer.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The workspace also has the following limitations:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">No teams on the platform. You can only create projects on one workspace;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">All project users have access to the projects;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can only add a limited number of users.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Organization<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An organisation is a more team-focused system than Workspace. Users who work in an organisation should log in to the Asana platform by specifying their company&#8217;s domain. In this way, they will relate to a specific company with their own personal domain. This makes it easy to identify which company an employee belongs to. For example, every Cloudfresh employee has an email on the <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">@cloudfresh.com<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> domain, which automatically identifies employees to the same organisation in Asana.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Below you can see a detailed illustration of the organisation.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6910 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-organization.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"882\" height=\"417\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-organization.png 1718w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-organization-300x142.png 300w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-organization-768x363.png 768w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-organization-1024x484.png 1024w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-organization-600x284.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 882px) 100vw, 882px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Key defining organisations:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The whole organisation has the same tariff, separate or individual payment is not possible;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Settings in the control panel set by the administrator will be applied to all users in the organisation;\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The administration of the organisation is the same for all, individual management is not possible.\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Teams<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The second most important division in Asana is Teams. Teams are a collection of users who work on a single project or task. However, this division has very limited administrative capabilities. The teams may only manage tasks related to their projects and no more. If you are interested in team management with more administrative functionality, then consider the following subdivision in company management in Asana.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Division<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Division is a bundle of several teams. The administration of a Division is much more extensive than the organisation, and gives you the possibility to set up your own settings and to pay separately from the company for your teams on the Asana platform.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Using divisions, you can group teams and allocate invoices for payment.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In the illustration, the division will be in the following location:\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-6911 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-division.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"344\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-division.png 1832w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-division-300x103.png 300w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-division-768x264.png 768w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-division-1024x352.png 1024w, https:\/\/cloudfresh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/04\/asana-division-600x206.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let&#8217;s imagine that one division is a boat.
