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.

Vetted Review
Verified User
- Thirty US dollars + per month, per user, can get a bit pricey for the mid-size business. I am not sure what their enterprise business pricing is, however, I imagine the ROI is well worth it as many corporations I have worked for use Workfront for both project management as well as timesheet tracking.

A solid option for your DAM
- Reduces the risk of not knowing where a certain asset is stored
- No more file retrieval fees
- Everything located in one place that everyone can access
- But ..... it’s a painful process locating all your files and setting it up. No fault of the DAM

Workfront Works!

WorkFront Review - small/mid web marketing company
- Reporting has allowed for various stakeholders and contributors to understand impacts of certain project changes.
- I think we lose a good amount of time converting issues to tasks and following up on issues. This could probably be handled in a more streamlined way.
- I personally dislike having to save every report. I would like a simple query that pulls up data without needing to save. This wastes time for the PMs.
