Wrike is more user friendly than Microsoft Project. And, being mostly Mac users, we don't use Microsoft so much outside of email, so that was a big decider. Also, for the functions and cost, it was a great choice. ProWorkflow was good, but Wrike had more functions we felt …
It's well suited to make understand team on day to day tasks. Manager can see the performance of the team and can assign task based on availability. Our team now works in more collaboration then earlier, this is the strength of the ProWorkflow. Emailing and templates tools are very basic and having room for improvement.
Wrike is very well suited for such business cases where it requires project management, task management, team collaboration, time tracking, customisation in the views but when it comes to extensive workflow automation along with its interaction to other tools then it lacks behind sometimes as all the features are not possible internally through automation and we require additional tools like workato to connect wrike with other tools.
Overall Wrike's interface is very friendly. I will log into Wrike and not be overwhelmed by the tasks that lie ahead. I know where to go to find the tasks that are assigned to me and Wrike's workspace and folder structure allow me to help keep tasks organized.
Wrike is intuitive. When creating a task, populating a name, assignee, start and end dates, and a description just makes sense. Compared to other tools, Wrike is very easy to use.
Dashboard functionality - the ability to create custom dashboards to see what tasks are assigned to certain users.
I think it is easy for tasks to fall through the cracks. With custom dashboards, we are able to avoid this issue
Multiple instances.
We have many clients and being able to switch between instances by the click of a button makes it really easy. In the past, we were using a different project management tool than our clients and we were needing to transfer information from one place to another. This created inefficiencies.
Customization.
Within each project, you can create different views of the task. This allows us to really only display what is really needed to be seen by the team.
Non-technical users may require more governance, as they primarily need to focus on their tasks and collaborate effectively. Their Wrike landing page should be simplified.
The extensive flexibility and information can overwhelm new users, leading to potential issues with task and date modifications.
Learning the tools often involves creating unnecessary projects and tasks.
A staging environment alongside the production environment would be beneficial for learning and experimenting before going live.
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.
As mentioned earlier, I have used other platforms like Workfront, Jira, and Slack for project and task management. However, I would definitely go for Wrike because it makes things easier for marketers, stakeholders, and users. I love it. You are doing amazing work. Continue building on that, and I am sure you will be one of the best project management tools on the market.
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
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
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 been able to use Wrike to prioritize tasks for departments. Some departments are overwhelmed with other tasks and being able to save the staff some time by prioritizing their tasks has been helpful.
Collaboration and communication have improved between the project teams.
Wrike made it easier to access past information to reference for future preparation or to help clarify.
