Workzone eliminates confusion and ensures that the team uses the latest version of files by organizing these files and adding version numbers as files are being revised. The team can share these files with other team members or with clients and even set file permissions to ensure individuals get access to those files that are only appropriate to them and avoid confidential information getting into the wrong hands. The system notifies the users of the progress of their tasks, comments or calendar events through alerts.

Payroll data is very sensitive when it lands on unwanted parties because it increases theft rates. It is therefore worthy for any organization to adopt this software when preparing and disbursing payroll data to avoid risking the lives of the employees. This is because Workzone ensures that payroll data is transmitted in a secure form.

Work zone is a great option for agencies and marketing departments that have a lot of projects. When there are multiple people working on a project with in a team it is great to see the progress.

I would like Workzone to offer more options for time management and a better tracking system for managing the project team. With Workzone, I am relying on everyone in the company to stay current with their scheduling, or the system falls apart. If I need an intern to help me out on a deadline and other colleagues have not updated their schedules, the information I am given on their availability is not accurate.

Workzone is a great way to provide files and information to specific parties in your team, it gives the user a notification to pick up files without jamming email. It has been a life saver, if files were always sent via email the delays and possible human error would increase .

WorkZone is most suited for organizations that have not used a project management software before. It is a no-frills system that gets the job done. It is best for those groups that are looking to implement a project management platform that is a blend between social task management systems and complex project management software. Those who are looking for a complex, detailed system should look elsewhere.

WorkZone would be a great tool for a company that develops content/ideas and has to share them with multiple people/clients. It allows for easy sharing and commenting. For a company that creates content for web, radio or television and would like to store them for presentation purposes- then you might want to look elsewhere.
WorkZone was everything we needed and wanted until we started to expand. We've recommended WorkZone to a few companies and two of them are using it today. One of those clients does construction. They use WorkZone to share building schematics and ideas throughout their company and on the job site. We are working with them on a job that they are constructing and they've added us as a 'client user' to access items that are beneficial towards the ads we're creating.

You should have a defined process and understand your configuration points. If you don't have a clearly defined process, this tool will not solve that issue. We have a team of two administrators, the creative manager and the marketing manager, together they manage the software.

When you are selecting your project management software you should first determine your lists: "must have" vs "nice to have". For our company it was important to have reporting capabilities across multiple projects, which many project management programs do not do. It also needed to work for smaller projects that do not have a lot of dependencies. If I was only working on one very large project I would select MicroSoft Project or something similar. Working in marketing, you may have over 100 projects going at one time and you need to be able to manage your resources and change timelines daily, WorkZone worked well for this.

It is great for new employees. It's easy to learn, which is beneficial when everything is new to a person. Also, it outlines the process so all employees can see where we are at or what needs to happen next. I think it is well-priced so even smaller businesses can take advantage of it's organizational benefits.

Overall, when I did my research, WorkZone seemed to have the most extensive but easy to use tools of the project management systems on the market; especially when you factor in cost. I think it would work really well with a smaller group that is just getting started in organizing their processes, as it'll be easy to build their systems around what WorkZone offers. I also think adding client users, in addition to your internal users, makes a big difference. If your clients are tech-savvy enough to handle an online system (which is pretty user-friendly), it really helps streamline projects. This isn't to say larger companies couldn't utilize it - as long as you have the time and dedication to modify your processes and get everything in place. WorkZone provides an excellent amount of support and training to assist from their end. The packages without client users would be really helpful for internal teams, where you don't necessarily need to send out timelines, and all the key players can have WorkZone accounts to log in to. I think it's an excellent project management solution!
