Reviews
(1-25 of 190)Review of project management system Wrike
- Resource management
- Backlog and progress management
- Task management
- Project status and management
- Overviews
- The date filtering really needs a work over, which I have also been mentioning in the community forums
- There should be more customization features that is based on template tags, e.g. in terms of request forms, naming conventions etc. today it's too hard to build the structure that would be suitable for us, this also goes for automation tasks
- The features surrounding tasks should be better suited towards smaller tasks that isn't 1d, as the gantt charts tend to behave quite weirdly whenever we move tasks that are e.g. 3 hours with a depenent task
But if you are willing to invest in this it will truly be a great win for the organization and everyone involved in the projects. The transparency that is available through Wrike is amazing in terms of how all members of a project are able to choose to be fully invested in a task or just stick to the bare minium of what they need to complete it.
- Assigning projects
- Creating recurring tasks
- Tracking projects
- Setting deadlines
- Creating briefs and getting approvals
- Clean UI and dashboard
- The search feature is a bit complex
- We can have more filters in notifications
- A way to set default views rather than having to manually change it for every space, project, etc.
Wrike is the tool that we needed!
- Wrike allows users to customize a personal dashboard and to do list!
- Wrike is highly customizable and can work to fit your needs for different use cases. Each of our teams works a bit differently and Wrike delivers.
- Wrike is there to help and answer questions right in the application. They are there to help address any questions or concerns that may arise.
- I'd love to see the ability to duplicate an entire job timeline at the project level vs. the task level. This would be helpful when different related projects will follow the same steps but may deviate in timing.
- I'd love to see the resource tab allow you to clear resources without manually driving the job title back on as a tile. And also delete roles that will not be needed entirely job to job.
- I'd love to be able to move a comment that has been submitted in a route without needing to delete it and add it again.
Best task manager tool!
- Task management
- Collaboration
- Customization
- to change the stage of certain prices should be more Easier to just click on a button than drag boxes on the screen
- Sometimes as it is a share environment there are too many files and makes not that easy to find projects that you may be working on
- Workflow management
- Everything contained in one task / ticket - brief, proofs, approval
- Reporting
- Automate certain things like mandatory fields from parent task should automatically populate sub tasks - currently has to be done manually, which is very time consuming if one main campaign (task) has a long list of sub tasks
- The autobot reminders are annoying, it's a constant interruption, feels like being spammed
Can't think of any where it's less appropriate
- Project Management
- Collaboration
- Task Tracking
- it could be more intuitive and user-friendly
- improving integration with other commonly used software applications
- more intuitive reporting and analytics capabilities
Wrike review
- Promotes transparency between departments
- Creates easy ways for leadership to keep their fingers on the pulse of project progress
- Decreases lost information in email inboxes
- Finding help online. There is SO much information that is sometimes takes a while to find a resource specific to your needs.
- Some enhancements that are requested by large numbers in the Wrike community and have many use case scenarios are not being considered for implementation.
- Being able to customize user permissions for custom fields would be very helpful.
a great collaboration tool
- the ability to interact with different teams and workflows but still keep your own space organized and separate
- a good inbox that allows you to pay attention to the issues without having to look at all your cards to find out what's new
- the ability to customize the templates and fields
- it has something of a learning curve. It could use more AI assistance
- I'd like to see easier ways to collaborate between teams
- the follow-up/reminders could be rethought
Great software for managing digital production at scale.
- Plan and organise projects with a big team.
- Add details and levels to any task, no matter the size of it.
- Connect different part of production, from costs to people.
- Speed: the software is so complex that for simple things is not ideal.
- Customization: some teams have different needs for detail, and they could have different features for the same products.
Give it a chance if you need to automate workflows
- Standardized business inputs
- Streamline workflows
- Notify assigned people
- Visibility in personal workspace
- Creation of personal productivity (individual contribution vs team contribution)
- It resets de starting date each time you want to change the expiration date
No so well if you want to keep track of projects where you are the only one working on it or if other people doesn’t have access to the tool
- Customization of task titles, blueprints, and task status
- Integrations with Box and Outlook and the ability to email tasks and folders
- Ability to view task lists in a number of different ways (by date, by title, by active status)
- Accessibility. It is near unusable for any user that employs a screen reader or other assistive technology. Wrike's inaccessible nature is the biggest reason we are considering a switch to a different project, despite being overall happy with its features.
- Ability to duplicate tasks and keep subtasks attached to the duplicated task
Highly recommend!
- The workflow visual is easy to follow
- The due dates and reminders are so helpful
- Having visibility into where your job is in the workflow process is great!
- we have a delay in receiving email notifications but that could be the security on our end.
- this is very minor but to be able to customize Wrike to follow our company Brand with fonts and colors.
Comprehensive solution, sometimes too comprehensive.
- Tracks progress of projects with details.
- Links similar projects together for better visibility.
- Good system of record for approvals.
- Complicated to use for someone who isn't a power user.
- Almost too much customization at times.
Great Tool for Collaborative Project Management
Also used by some Marketing groups for project management.
- User experience is pretty good, easy to use, nice interface, good performance
- Gantt chart features are built for good productivity
- Personalization of email alerts
- Configuration of workflows and custom fields should allow to configure more restrictive actions for users - It is too open and leaves room for user errors.
Everything will be all Wrike
- Incredible knowledge base, easy to learn and generally is intuitive across the platform
- Visibility - between dashboards and reports, you can have incredible visibility over project statuses, which is crucial for communicating with executive leadership
- Request forms could benefit from having more options for conditional fields and data, without having to create multi-page forms. Due to Wrike limitations, we use Formstack to manage what Wrike cannot.
A Project Managers' Best Friend!
- Meeting Notes - allows for seamless creation of action items via subtasks. Tags into locations and Custom Fields make it simple to customise data and simplify viewing purposes with minimal effort once setup.
- Issue Logging - Request Forms allow seamless integration of tasks and requests from both internal and external sources. Simplifies the issue resolution process and clearly directs action of users resolving an issue.
- Task Management - customisable status options make it easy to know where a task is at. Gantt Chart and dependencies functions make it easy to interconnect tasks and understand end-to-end actions
- To-Do Lists - highly customisable dashboards and to-do lists to make it easy to visualise tasks for yourself or team members.
- Outlook Integration - Wrike is getting better and better at integrating with other products, but the outlook integration saves a lot of double handling by providing automatic suggestions for tasks and follow-ups based on your emails, and the ability to automatically create calendar events from tasks
- Visualisation of tasks for yourself and others
- Automation based on highly customisable fields
- Powerful analytics
- Amalgamation of ticketing service and project management software
- Continuous development of product
- Listening to requirements from user/community
- Visual noise
- Large updates to product with minimal warning to users - need to better communicate product changes
- Processing speed issues on large datasets
Less suited to teams with simple tasks who just need a to-do list to get things done. Too much visual noise for these users.
Wrike makes project management easy
- Differnt views that can be customized per user
- Forms that you can use for project intake
- Easy navigation
- Would like the ability to have some more customization of look and feel
Some of the challenges come form our web team - they are working thru Wrike but it isn't web forward like Jira.
Time Tracking Teams will love it.
- Workload views
- Customization to your organizational needs
- Workflows and automations
- Effort tracking on project level
I Wrike can't be your primary source of truth (maybe with a secondary source to support) it may be worth considering if Wrike is the one - but I honestly can't make up a scenario in which I can't see how Wrike could be utilized, within reason.
Wrike or Wrong?
- It is good to create a visualization for management to understand the progress of tasks.
- It is simple for project managers to assign tasks to team members and external parties.
- Can create customized project templates for usage amongst all.
- Note taking.
- Lack of organization options.
The most well rounded project management software around.
- Wrike allows for task automations at all levels
- Time tracking is super flexible and allows for team members to enter time in multiple places
- Task and project organization is great. Everything can be nested at multiple levels to allow for complete customization of organization.
- AI implementation felt rushed
- Sometimes custom view creation and use can be confusing to know who can see what
- Request forms are somewhat limited
The Wrike Stuff!
- Task Management
- User Management - Roles specific a HUGE plus!
- Reporting
- Dashboards
- Functionality of fields - some fields are not usable until you've placed the project into a folder or make an assignment to a user
- Granular Reporting - sometimes it's difficult to get reports to accurately show at a granular level while also allowing high level breakdowns
"Efficiency Elevated: A Glimpse into the Wrike Advantage"
- Wrike can use to create projects and define project goals and objectives.
- Design custom workflows to reflect your organization's unique processes and approval chains.
- Enable team members to collaborate on tasks, projects, and documents within Wrike.
- Direct Message for the users
- Optimize the platform for faster load times, especially for large projects and data sets.
- Ensure smooth performance, even with a high number of concurrent users.
Improving Wrike's usability and accessibility
- Project request
- Time management
- Reporting
- Project tracking
- User interface, can be cleaner
- cleaner and more intuitive URL
- Project codenames thru query string eg. EM-2042
- User centered dashboard, e.g. highlighting projects that are overdue etc.
It is less appropriate to use for regular and recurring tasks, however, it is good to have a feature having this, for example, bi monthly newsletters every 1st and 15th. Wrike would notify stakeholders to provide materials, while creators will be provided a preview.
Wrike Does What it's Supposed to Do, and Does it Well
- Keeps detailed timelines
- Lets people divide projects into different parts (writing, design)
- Notification system is outstanding. You get notified via your work email when there's a status update as well as in the app. It's impossible to miss an update.
- Everyone hates the "rejected" status. There has to be a better word without such a negative connotation.
- Too many options for customization at some times. It's difficult to figure out what features do and if you actually need them.
- Multiple notifications can be overwhelming.
This might just be in our office, but if a marketing manager needs me to proof something in a hurry, it would be easier for them to just email it to me so I can get on it rather than having to enter everything in Wrike.
