Re: Tracking periodic tasks

We use Asana for this. https://asana.com  We've found it to be especially useful when dealing with 
cross-departmental/cross-functional tasks. For example, we have a task list for new student registration that has 
periodic/recurring reminders for both IT and the Registrar's office. It gives both areas visibility into what has been 
done and what still needs to be done. It's a cloud solution, so obviously not appropriate for anything sensitive.

I wanted to ask how others are tracking periodic tasks (i.e. things done weekly, monthly, etc) for a team. In a 
previous life in the corporate world I’ve used both home-grown systems and complex team management software to ensure 
and document regulatory compliance, but I’m looking for something simpler and cheaper. How does your organization 
ensure these tasks are done by whom?
