Product Details

What is Adobe Workfront?

Workfront is a web-based project-management tool acquired and now supported by Adobe since late 2020. It was designed for both IT and marketing teams, but can be implemented for any kind of project. Workfront offers all the features standard to project management platforms. Editing and updating issues from the project view is styled to work somewhat similarly to a social networking site, bringing team members together in one central location. From the project view screen, issues, documents, and other elements of the project are placed along a tab bar so that they may be addressed with one click directly from the hub.

The platform's Capacity Planner allows a manager to move resources to where they are needed, and has some automation features (e.g. the Set Best Fit option, which attempts to allocate resources optimally within given constraints). Agile project management is supported with features like Gantt charts, an easily viewable and manipulable backlog, and storyboarding. Team members can be managed with the aid of quantitative metrics that show where work would be best allocated.

A free trial is available, after which Workfront comes in four pricing options. The lowest tier is Collaboration for small groups, followed by Work which adds mobile accessibility and time sheets, then Plan which adds additional analytic, planning, and reporting features. Finally, Enterprise Plus offers the highest configurability as well as support and data security.

Companies can't remove reviews or game the system. Here's why

For the price point, there is nothing out there that provides this level of ease of use, robust features, and amazing out-of-the-box reporting. The system is simple to train and onboard new users, so adoption becomes almost self-managing after a short period of time. The main thing that purchasers of any project information system need to keep in perspective is that no system will fix your business problems. Your system has to be a reflection of the good processes you already have in place. Implementing a system to fix your processes will not work. But if you have good processes, take a solid look at AtTask for your project management system. You're likely to find little that compares with the vast feature set for the same price.

Well, because it does help certain departments manage their projects, we will continue to use it. The software has room for improvement like anything out there. It depends on the comfort level of your users. We are a busy IT software developing company so it seems like our users buy-into easy to use tools that do not require time taken out of their developing schedule.

I'm not aware of any other tools that provide level (both, in terms of scope and in terms of depth) of projects/time management as @task does. It's web-based, so can be used literally everywhere. It's a multi-user, so any size team can utilize it. Training that we received when we moved to the new version was online training provided by @task team, was accessable for anyone who wished to join, with all our questions asnwered.

AtTask has great potential, but requires a significant investment by the organization to use it enterprise-wide. This will allow greater visibility to projects, easier reporting, and more consistent information for setting stakeholder expectations. Limitations exist around the number of licenses issued and also if external consultants or resources are used in projects.

This is kind of a loaded question because i left my old position more than a year ago. However i am under the impression that we renewed our contract every year based on usage and users of the system and feedback we received from our clients about its ease of use and usability throughout the workplace.

I have moved on from LexisNexis (now Martindale, LLC) where AtTask is still used, however I will soon be starting a new subscription to help manage my clients.

I found the software to be very user friendly and once you get the hang of it, you realize the true potential. I look forward to renewing my relationship with AtTask.

Setting up AtTask for our purposes was a large upfront investment, but has paid off in the long run. I appreciate the custom reports, communication abilities, and project tracking tools. I was not overly impressed with their training sessions, but fortunately we have an in-house project manager that handles the onboarding process for our team.
