Asana vs Fellow

Our Verdict

Asana and Fellow solve different management problems. Asana manages work between meetings — tasks, deadlines, dependencies, project timelines. Fellow manages the meetings themselves — agendas, notes, action items, and meeting habits. Asana is the more essential tool for most consultants. If you can only pick one, pick the project manager. Client deliverables live in Asana — you track what needs to happen, when, and who owns it. The free tier supports up to 10 users with unlimited tasks and projects. Starter plan is $10.99/month per user for timelines and custom fields. Fellow fills a different gap: making meetings productive. Collaborative agendas (shared with the client before the call), real-time note-taking, and automatic action item tracking ensure meetings don't end with "what did we agree on again?" Fellow also provides meeting analytics — frequency, duration, and habits. Free for up to 10 meeting notes/month. Solo plan is $19/month. For consulting specifically, Fellow's strength is the client-facing meeting workflow. Sending a pre-meeting agenda, taking structured notes during the call, and automatically creating follow-up tasks creates a professional impression that justifies premium rates. But this workflow can be approximated with a Notion template and a project management tool. Asana first. Add Fellow only if unproductive meetings are a real bottleneck — which, for consultants, they often are.
