Asana publishes four levels and a free plan. Personal is free forever for one or two people, with unlimited tasks and projects, list, board and calendar views, unlimited storage capped at 100 MB per file, status updates, time tracking through integrations and access to 100+ integrations. Starter is $10.99 per user a month billed annually, or $13.49 billed monthly, removes the seat limit and adds timeline and Gantt views, custom fields and unlimited free guests. Advanced is $24.99 annually ($30.49 monthly) and adds unlimited portfolios, capacity planning and deeper reporting. Enterprise and Enterprise+ are quoted.
TL;DR
Asana and Wrike land almost on top of each other on price: Starter at $10.99 per user a month against Wrike Team at $10, and Advanced at $24.99 against Wrike Business at $25, all on annual billing. Asana is the more polished, list-and-goal-shaped tool with unlimited free guests and AI bundled per seat; Wrike is the heavier operational tool with resource management, time tracking and budgets that do not need an add-on. The deciding factor is usually whether you want goals and portfolios above the work, or capacity and billing inside it.
Wrike's ladder is Free at $0 for essential task management, Team at $10 per user a month for 2 to 15 users, and Business at $25 per user a month for 5 to 200 users, with Pinnacle and Apex quoted. The published prices are annual per-user figures, and Wrike's pricing page states they apply to purchases made from January 21, 2026. Above Business, the paid tiers are mostly about AI quota, resource and capacity planning, budgeting with billable rates, and advanced reporting.
The AI billing is where the two diverge most sharply. Asana includes AI Teammates and Asana Dash on Starter and Advanced with five requests per user a month capped at 50 per account, plus AI Studio credits (50,000 on Starter, 75,000 on Advanced), and sells extra AI either prepaid at $0.50 per request with no monthly reset or on demand at $5.99 per user a month plus $0.60 per request. Wrike includes AI Essentials on Team and an AI Elite starter pack on Business, then meters the action quota upward on Pinnacle and Apex rather than selling requests individually.

Pick Asana if
Choose Asana when work is organised around objectives, portfolios and status updates, and when external collaborators should not cost money. At $10.99 per user a month on annual billing it is priced within a dollar of Wrike Team, and the unlimited free guests on Starter change the economics for agencies and partner-heavy teams. Budget for AI beyond the included allowance at $0.50 per prepaid request if your teams lean on it.
Pick Wrike if
Choose Wrike when the project office needs to know who is over-allocated, what hours were billable and what the budget burn looks like without an integration. Team at $10 per user a month is the cheaper seat, and the operational features are not held back for the quoted tiers the way comparable Asana features sit on Advanced. Move to Business at $25 once you pass 15 users or want AI Elite actions and standard integrations.
We did not collect an independent review corpus for this pair, so nothing here is user sentiment. Every figure comes from the two vendors' own pricing pages, fetched on the date shown at the top of this page.
Wrike, marginally, and only on the entry tier: Team at $10 per user a month is $400 a month for 20 users against Asana Starter at $10.99, or $439.60. Once you need Asana's Advanced or Wrike's Business tier the gap is $24.99 against $25, which is noise next to feature fit.
Yes, at $0 for essential task management with web, desktop and mobile apps, project and task management, board and table views. Asana's free Personal plan is comparable but limited to two users, and neither free tier includes resource management.
Asana sells AI predictably: five requests per user a month included, then $0.50 per request prepaid with no reset, or $5.99 per user a month plus $0.60 per request on demand. Wrike includes AI Essentials on Team and an AI Elite starter pack on Business and increases the monthly action quota on Pinnacle and Apex rather than charging per request.
Asana, because Starter and above include unlimited free guest seats, so a client or contractor can be given access without a licence. Wrike bills per user, and guest access is not part of the Team tier.
Wrike's Team tier includes workload views, but the deeper capacity planning, billable rates and budgeting sit above Business. Asana's capacity planning arrives with Advanced at $24.99. Neither entry plan is a resourcing tool.
In Asana that means Enterprise, quoted by sales. In Wrike it means Pinnacle or Apex, also quoted, which is where advanced reporting, budgeting and the larger AI Elite quotas live. Both vendors price that conversation individually.
