The Real Difference
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Asana stands out with Timeline and Gantt views and Workflow automation. Height counters with AI-powered task creation and prioritization and Cross-team project views with filtering.
Asana's Achilles heel: free plan is barebones — you hit paywall fast on reporting and automation. Height's: young product with a smaller ecosystem — integrations and templates lag behind asana and linear. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
Bottom Line
If you value timeline and gantt views and mid-size teams that need, go with Asana. If product and engineering teams matters more, Height is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
