Projectplace was more usable and knitted together from the outset than as with Wrike or having to customize a lot of features and workflows as with JIRA.
Most of these others don't have many of the features that are available in Planview Projectplace. The agile methodology is in a true sense covered by Planview Projectplace, not by Asana nor Wrike. In Confluence, one has to link up with Jira for full functionality, but in …
It offers a simpler alternative that's easier to manage by the less tech-savvy people. I also think that Planview Projectplace has managed to keep the product updated compared to other project management tools. Miro is perhaps the one that comes to mind, but while evaluating, …
Most of the apps we tried were explicitly marketed for creatives, but some of them did not offer more agency minded features like Kanban boards and request forms which we have grown accustomed to. We eventually selected another solution instead of Projectplace.
We still use Trello and will continue to use it for some teams and specific tasks, we also use Basecamp mostly within the technical team. Planview Projectplace is the tool that we hope will help us to move most of our work for collaboration and communication in one place to …
Planview ProjectPlace is a vibrant platform that manages all activities and schedules different roles based on their urgency, importance, and requests. Further, Planview ProjectPlace outlines the need for proper documentation with the aim of accurate referencing. Tasks are credibly shared, and proper reporting is enhanced to transform firms' work environment. ; Lastly, Planview ProjectPlace brings sustainable email integration for enterprises.
Wrike is best suited for project management, task management, summarizing requests received by the team, open tasks, in-queue tasks, project tracking, etc. It helps with project management excellently, and I would love to recommend it. Analytics is good, but there is a high chance of improvement.
It's user-friendly for anyone familiar with project management and scrum methodologies, making it easy to navigate and understand Wrike at a high level.
Wrike offers features tailored to various business use cases, including project management, agile, scrum, workflows, visualizations, folder structures, blueprints, customization, and integrations.
Tasks provide a comprehensive history in one place.
There are multiple visualization options to view the Work Breakdown Structure (WBS) hierarchy, such as Gantt charts, Kanban boards, and table views.
Under the time tracking, it would be nice to have a set template that would load each week and not have to click a button to load the previous week's template.
Somehow making it more intuitive.
Having to add in each service line and each detail that I cover for every service line each week is a bit ridiculous.
I would like to see the ability to “upgrade” or “downgrade” projects to tasks or tasks to projects.
A more thorough training upon contract activation. Showing me what (based on my organization’s workflow and needs) suggestions Wrike would have for me and how to implement them.
The cost for Wrike is high compared to competitors. Either a lower price point or more seats/functionalities for the price I’m paying.
We're committed now & have >50 users on Projectplace. All our projects are now tracked in the tool. We this investment of time & training, the cost of maintaining Projectplace is relatively low for the benefit. So we will renew, even if there are some idiosyncrasies in the tool & there are opportunities for improvement.
I wish that Wrike had more drag and drop functionality that would be connected to assignee and also I wish that the finish date of a task would update to the date where you checked completed. It does not do that. Also finishing a task doesn't move the start date of the next task it "protects your time in that way", but our management team wants us to quickly see what we have down the pipeline rather than having to scroll down the list of upcoming tasks.
Planview ProjectPlace is an actionable approach, which facilitates all the processes that entail project management and resource planning. Besides, Planview ProjectPlace has established credible monitors, which focus on time, and resources for swift performance. More so, Planview ProjectPlace allows accurate prioritization of every business procedure, to bring clear operational maps.
A lot of the manual work that would need to take place to provide updates or inform the group is taken off the hands of the project team and on to Wrike. The team has been able to update their task and see the project progress to the next step without having to manually track.
Over two years of (almost) daily usage without outages. Don't remember any errors. I give it 9 only because some Wrike plugins (for online document edit) are based on NPAPI architecture. These types of plugins are being phased out in new browsers, and NPAPI plugins are disabled by default in recent versions of Chrome so you have to do some browser adjustments when you switch browsers or move to another computer.
Wrike tasks loads fine, but I hate clicking files and wait for a bit of time since it is powerpoint or word, Wrike assumes I want to open those on Wrike. My suggestion is to link it to office 365 so we do not need Wrike based decoder for PPTX and DOCX
An unlimited project collaboration tool that scales with the increase of team members and is designed to incorporate waterfalls and agile workflows and effectively adapts to situations of change of plans very easily. All projects progress is easily followed through a single dashboard with perfect visualization capabilities and allows project team members to share files and documents in real-time.
During my learning phase with Wrike, I initially struggled with setting up automation rules and request forms. However, Wrike support was always my go-to, resolving issues within seconds or minutes. Their assistance made the learning process much easier. My best experience was receiving step-by-step screenshots to follow, with the support team on standby until I was completely satisfied.
I love the Wrike training options. Wrike Discover has tons of courses, learning plans, certifications, etc. This is an area where Wrike definitely shines! I wish these resources were more in your face for new people, because it seems like a lot of coworkers didn't know all of this training was available to them.
There are a lot of bells and whistles in Wrike, and not all of it is easy or intuitive to understand once it's plopped in your lap. It's easier when there are a few choice people who understand Wrike as a platform and articulate it in such a way where it makes it easy to pass it along to others in the group
It offers a simpler alternative that's easier to manage by the less tech-savvy people. I also think that Planview Projectplace has managed to keep the product updated compared to other project management tools. Miro is perhaps the one that comes to mind, but while evaluating, we saw fewer issues with Planview Projectplace. Overall, the decision came down to the project manager, that had previous experience and recommended the product. For me, using a product from a smaller company is better because I know that there will be a focus on improving it, unlike, for example, Microsoft products that can be discontinued at any moment.
Neither Jira nor Asana are user-friendly. There are too many layers without visualizing the broader relationship among tasks. I did not actively want to engage with either of these tools. However, I don't view project management as a burden with Wrike. It makes my job more manageable instead of further complicating it.
The sky is the limit for what can be done in Wrike. We started with 1 use case and within 5 months we migrated several key business practices over to Wrike because they were easier to manage. Use cases so far: process improvement, management review, corrective actions, maintenance requests, month-end financial closing, and document management. As we grow, it's easy to imagine putting even more into Wrike where it becomes a cornerstone for how we do business
[We have the] ability to support remote work through projects that scale across multiple groups
We have large-scale quarterly projects, so the ability to save and duplicate project templates are helpful for us to keep track of tasks down to the specific card
We have reduced the back and forth communication time between Rev Ops and users by collecting all the info we need upfront.
Wrike's collaborative features facilitate better communication and coordination among team members. This can lead to smoother project execution, reduced misunderstandings, and ultimately contribute to achieving business objectives more effectively.
Customizable forms, automation workflows, and task dependencies in Wrike can help streamline business processes. This streamlining can save time and resources, allowing teams to focus on core objectives rather than dealing with inefficient processes.
