One Deep Integration Beats 100 Shallow Ones

Most time trackers advertise long integration lists. But how many of those actually work well? HiveDesk takes a different approach: one reliable integration with Asana, plus everything else built in.

The problem with integration marketplaces

  • Integrations break silently and data stops syncing
  • Each connector adds complexity and potential security risks
  • Shallow integrations only push basic data between tools
  • Time spent configuring and debugging integrations
  • Still need to switch between multiple dashboards
  • More integrations means more vendor lock-in

The HiveDesk approach

  • Deep Asana integration that reliably syncs projects and tasks
  • Track time directly against Asana tasks from any device
  • Built-in scheduling, attendance, leave, and activity monitoring
  • One dashboard for workforce management and time tracking
  • PDF and Excel exports work with any payroll or billing tool
  • Less complexity means fewer points of failure

How the Asana Integration Works

Connect once. Track time against Asana tasks from any device.

1

Connect your Asana workspace

Authorize the connection from HiveDesk settings. Your Asana projects and tasks sync automatically.

2

Track time against tasks

Team members select an Asana task in HiveDesk and start the timer. Time, screenshots, and activity are captured.

3

View unified reports

See hours per task, per project, and per team member. Export reports for payroll, client billing, or project reviews.

Everything Else is Built In

You do not need a dozen integrations when the platform already includes what you need.
