Asana vs Koofr
A side-by-side editorial comparison of Asana and Koofr — release velocity, themes, recent moves, and the top alternatives to consider.
Asana vs Koofr: at a glance
What is Asana?
Asana gives client portal activity its own Inbox tab, a week after launching Tables.
Asana's newest object type is Tables, which stores vendor and asset records next to tasks on Advanced and Enterprise plans. Two smaller releases followed on November 5: a Client portal activity tab in Inbox for Client Management licensees, and collapsible Heading 1 to 3 sections in Pages. Both target users whose Inbox or docs have grown too large to scan.
What is Koofr?
Koofr's iOS app gets a text editor, and public links get minute-level expiry.
Koofr is a privacy-focused cloud storage service working through mobile parity with its web app. The November 3 release adds a text editor to the iOS app, improves editing documents in external apps through the Files integration, lets public links expire down to the minute, and gives paid users custom link passwords. It follows October's Android sharing upgrade.

Asana gives client portal activity its own Inbox tab, a week after launching Tables.
◆ Current state
Asana's newest object type is Tables, which stores vendor and asset records next to tasks on Advanced and Enterprise plans. Two smaller releases followed on November 5: a Client portal activity tab in Inbox for Client Management licensees, and collapsible Heading 1 to 3 sections in Pages. Both target users whose Inbox or docs have grown too large to scan.
◆ Where it's heading
The fall ran from structural control (subtask types, date rollups, rule permissions) to new containers for work (Tables, client portals, Pages). The latest entries tidy those containers rather than add new ones, which suggests Pages and client portals are now treated as surfaces worth polishing.
◆ Prediction
Expect more Client Management features built on the portals, and early fixes or plan expansion for Tables; the entries do not show which comes first.
Koofr
5.0COLLAB
Koofr's iOS app gets a text editor, and public links get minute-level expiry.
◆ Current state
Koofr is a privacy-focused cloud storage service working through mobile parity with its web app. The November 3 release adds a text editor to the iOS app, improves editing documents in external apps through the Files integration, lets public links expire down to the minute, and gives paid users custom link passwords. It follows October's Android sharing upgrade.
◆ Where it's heading
Since the iOS 4.0 rebuild in June, releases have steadily brought web features to mobile: document scanning, Android link controls, now an iOS editor. Sharing controls get tightened in the same releases, alongside an ongoing effort to recover from repeated DDoS disruptions.
◆ Prediction
Expect the text editor to reach Android and more link controls across apps, given the alternating iOS and Android parity releases.
