Best fit

Who each tool is for

Asana

Strong Choice

Best for: Consultants managing multi-phase engagements with multiple stakeholders.

Why pick it: Strong free tier (up to 10 users) covers most solo and small-team needs. Portfolio view lets you track all client engagements in one place.

Watch for: If your projects are simple (3-5 tasks), a shared Notion doc is lighter. Asana shines when you have 10+ tasks with dependencies and deadlines.

Looker Studio

Strong Choice

Best for: Consultants delivering recurring client dashboards on a budget.

Why pick it: Completely free with live data connections to Google Analytics, Sheets, BigQuery, and 800+ connectors. The only $0/mo dashboarding tool that handles recurring client reports.

Watch for: Steeper learning curve than Bricks. If you need a one-off report from a spreadsheet, Bricks is faster.
