You can purchase Asana directly from Asana's website with a credit card and have a workspace active in minutes. Thousands of Indian teams do exactly this. And most of them are paying more than they should, missing GST Input Tax Credit they could claim, and using only a fraction of what Asana can do — because no one set it up properly.
Cloudfy Systems is one of only 2 official Asana Solutions Partners in India. This document explains what that designation means, why it matters for your organisation, and how buying Asana through an authorised partner is fundamentally different from self-serve.
What Is an Asana Solutions Partner?
An Asana Solutions Partner is a company that has been formally certified by Asana to implement, configure and support Asana deployments for businesses. Asana does not hand this designation out freely — partners must:
- Complete Asana's implementation certification programme
- Demonstrate real-world experience deploying Asana across different industries
- Maintain active certifications for key team members
- Meet performance and client satisfaction benchmarks set by Asana
- Agree to Asana's partner code of conduct and support standards
The Solutions Partner designation exists because Asana recognises that most organisations — especially those with 20+ users or complex workflows — do not get full value from Asana without expert implementation. A licence alone is not enough.
How Many Asana Solutions Partners Are There in India?
As of 2026, Cloudfy Systems is one of only 2 certified Asana Solutions Partners in the entire country.
India has over 1.5 million registered businesses using cloud software. In the project management category, Asana has a significant and growing user base. Yet the number of certified implementation partners remains very small — reflecting how rigorous the certification process is.
This matters for you as a buyer. When you purchase Asana through Cloudfy Systems, you are working with one of two organisations in India that Asana itself has certified to implement its platform.
What You Get When You Buy Through Cloudfy Systems
1. INR Billing with Valid GST Invoice
Purchasing directly from Asana's global portal processes the transaction in USD. The invoice may not carry Indian GST in a format that your GST-registered business can claim as Input Tax Credit.
When you buy through Cloudfy Systems:
- Invoice is issued in Indian Rupees (INR)
- 18% GST is applied and shown on the invoice
- The invoice is a valid Indian tax document — fully eligible for GST ITC claims
- No foreign currency exposure, no international transaction fees
What this means in rupees:
A 30-user Asana Starter subscription costs approximately ₹3,42,000/year (ex-GST). The GST component is ₹61,560. For a GST-registered company, this ₹61,560 is recoverable annually as ITC. Direct purchase without a valid GST invoice means this ₹61,560 is an irrecoverable cost every single year.
Over five years: ₹3,07,800 lost in unrecoverable tax — on a single platform.
2. Certified Implementation — Not Just a Licence
This is the core of what a Solutions Partner provides. We do not simply send you a licence key and a help article link.
A Cloudfy Asana implementation includes:
Workspace Architecture
- Designing your Asana workspace structure: teams, projects, sections and project naming conventions
- Custom fields for your specific data — priority, department, budget, status, owner
- Project templates for your recurring workflows — campaign brief, onboarding checklist, procurement process, meeting follow-up
Automation Configuration
- Setting up Workflow Builder rules specific to your processes — auto-assign tasks when a form is submitted, notify a manager when a task is marked complete, move cards automatically when a status changes
- Intake forms connected to project sections
Integration Setup
- Connecting Asana to your existing tools: Slack, Google Workspace, Microsoft 365, Salesforce, Zoom, HubSpot or whatever stack you run
- Bidirectional sync where needed (Jira integration for engineering teams)
3. Role-Specific Training
We run separate training sessions for:
- Workspace Admins — managing users, projects, permissions, billing
- Project Managers — Timeline, portfolio management, reporting, Goals
- Team Members — creating tasks, updating status, using forms, collaboration
Training is conducted in English or Hindi, remotely or on-site across India.
4. Post-Implementation Support
Our relationship does not end at go-live. Cloudfy provides:
- Ongoing admin support — adding users, adjusting permissions, configuring new projects
- Workflow expansion — as your team scales, we build out additional automations and integrations
- New feature adoption — when Asana releases new features (Asana Intelligence AI updates, new automation types), we help you adopt them
- Annual subscription management — renewal reminders, plan review, licence adjustments

Who Should Buy Asana Through Cloudfy Systems?
Any organisation that:
- Has 10 or more users to onboard to Asana
- Wants automation and integrations configured correctly from day one
- Needs GST invoicing for ITC recovery
- Has complex workflows that need custom project templates
- Wants training for their team, not just YouTube tutorials
- Needs ongoing support as their Asana usage grows
Even small teams (5–15 users) benefit from a proper implementation — the time saved by having everything configured correctly at the start (templates, custom fields, automation) is substantial compared to rebuilding it yourself after six months of ad-hoc setup.
