Project management troubles - Just Wrike it

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are using Wrike in project management primarily - it is a great software helping us to manage projects, break-it-down into smaller tasks, assign the tasks to relevant team members (instead of writing unnecessary emails), keep a track of real-time status of the projects and get a snapshot/ report of the progress on each project within seconds. We don't need to write emails to assign a particular task to a team member, everything gets assigned simply on Wrike, we are maintaining a detailed description of the task on Wrike itself and logging call notes, project links and other important information against each particular project, to keep it handy instead of searching in email history.

Pros

  • Project Management
  • Timesheet maintain
  • Real-time progress of projects snapshot
  • Tasks assignment

Cons

  • Side-window on clicking a project name
  • Timesheet feature units can improve
  • Notifications and reminders management

Likelihood to Recommend

It is highly recommended where project volume is high and the priority is to maintain track record and progress of each project, where there are multiple tasks involved. It may not be appropriate in case of one-off clients where email exchange is necessary.

Wrike Project Efficiency.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Wrike allows me to track project status with other departments very efficiently. It will also allow me to keep communications about multiple projects within the required channels, so items don't get confused or lost in other areas. Wrike will allow me to do my part of a project while also notifying others of their needed items, without having to send multiple emails about projects and having items get lost easily in that system.

Pros

  • Tracks the status of projects.
  • Allows me to communicate with others in the same project channels.
  • I can search other for other projects to check the status of items.
  • Allows me to upload files directly to the project.

Cons

  • The WrikeBot updates can be annoying.

Likelihood to Recommend

Wrike is helpful for organizations with numerous departments and employees who work from home or other locations. It allows me to easily see my tasks and track project status efficiently with others involved in the project.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Wrike is used primarily as a project-management tool. It allows for tasks to be divided between project members and timelines to be set, ensuring that all project members remain on task to deliver the project on time. It is also used to submit certain HR forms such as IT and travel requests.

Pros

  • Assign members to tasks
  • Reminders when tasks are past due

Cons

  • Can be hard to find files

Likelihood to Recommend

Best suited for inter and intra-team collaboration: dividing tasks between project members with responsibilities and deadlines being clear to all.

Wrike - A Complete Solution

Rating: 10 out of 10

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We're a custom solutions provider for generator packages, with R&D as a central component of everyday life. R&D project management and scheduling is by most metrics, nearly impossible. We manage the impossible with Wrike as part of our core infrastructure. I describe it to others as a type of odd marriage between MS Project and Facebook with file management. We use the scheduling components and resource loading features similar to Project, but with the communication pathways and stream components of Facebook. The customization options are nearly endless. Dashboards are one of the best ways to consolidate and organize task assignments I've seen. Time tracking and reporting features are crucial for time KPI tracking. Performance KPIs can be pulled directly from task performance with task tagging and filter settings. File version management helps us to meet our ISO 9001 targets by holding a complete history with version comparison and markup features built into the software. It's not a cheap software, but there is certainly a calculable ROI - an easy yes.

Pros

  • file version control and markup
  • resource planning and projection
  • KPI collection
  • task assignment organization

Cons

  • predecessor behaviors
  • GANTT chart functionality
  • merging old versions of Wrike structures with new versions (blueprint rollout)

Likelihood to Recommend

Wrike is well-suited for engineering applications or other technical applications that are notoriously difficult to manage.

Wrike helps do it all

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We are are a small publishing organization that produces books and video based curriculums. In addition to producing these assets we also handle all our own marketing campaigns and customer support services. Wrike serves as the tool to not only track the production of our products, but also all our campaigns and operations.

Pros

  • Asset reviews
  • Workflow customization and automations
  • Multiple views for projects (i.e. Gantt, calendar, resourcing, etc.)

Cons

  • More flexibility on custom reporting
  • Better integrations with other PM tools like Jira

Likelihood to Recommend

Wrike is great for publishing and marketing teams and covers the wide gamut of assets that could be produced by such teams (ebooks, print files, videos, social media, etc.). We are also doing discovery to bring in our accounting teams as we can see how it would also translate to that use case as well. Where it still isn't top tier is in how it's structured for development teams. Wrike is definitely more catered to creatives than programmers.

4 Stars for Wrike.

Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Wrike for project management and collaboration across multiple teams within my organization. Use can be straightforward for a single deliverable or for a multi-phased campaign that requires many actions and assets delivered by multiple teams. Using Wrike keeps are projects tracked for historical reference and on schedule, given the clear milestones we can capture along with direct assignments.

Pros

  • Manage timelines.
  • Creative review.
  • Track updates and comments.

Cons

  • Blueprints can be tricky to replicate.
  • More flexibility in separating followers, assignees within tasks and sub-tasks.
  • Notifications settings.

Likelihood to Recommend

The creative review tool is my favorite. It makes it so easy for multiple people to provide very direct and prices feedback that the designer does not have to guess where specifically in the document we are referring. Being able to resolve tasks and track the edits and updates you have made is also very helpful. I do wish that you could outline multiple areas and tie them to a singular comment.

The Project Management Tool for Our Project

Rating: 8 out of 10
Incentivized

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Wrike is the epicenter of your working day once you overcome the first shock of the setup. The fact that I can see the health of twenty different initiatives at a glance makes me feel in control in a way that never existed with spreadsheets. It creates a culture of responsibility since all activities are timed and can be seen. It prevents, I did not know that happened to be my case.

Pros

  • The custom workflow
  • Has a very different meaning to the marketing team as compared to IT and logistics.
  • The dynamic request forms are excellent in intake

Cons

  • As opposed to endless email chains, internal stakeholders complete a form which would automatically generate a task
  • Assign to the correct person and fill out all the required specs. It cuts out so much noise.
  • the Gantt charts are surprisingly dynamic and strong.

Likelihood to Recommend

It does phenomenally well with multipurpose projects. It was a reputable subject who knew what was blocked and who. It glorifies when complexity is great. It, however, has a poor performance with simple, ad hoc task management or quick brainstorming. In case I only have to write down a list of the day's checklist.
