We use it to organize our workflow between different areas in the Brand team (marketing, employer brand, design, digital properties, SEO, Content, etc). We produce all campaigns, assets and content using Wrike, with each team following their own workflow and then interacting with other teams via assigning task cards to them and following up.
  • the ability to interact with different teams and workflows but still keep your own space organized and separate
  • a good inbox that allows you to pay attention to the issues without having to look at all your cards to find out what's new
  • the ability to customize the templates and fields
  • it has something of a learning curve. It could use more AI assistance
  • I'd like to see easier ways to collaborate between teams
  • the follow-up/reminders could be rethought
I'd say it's great for big teams. Organizations with smaller teams may be inclined to use Trello or Notion instead because of lower costs and more intuitive interfaces. But the depth of things you can do with Wrike are great and most suited for complex organizations. The reports feature is also very robust.

I use Wrike to log the workspace tickets that I complete for my organization. Wrike helps me to keep track of the work that I complete. I am able to create a very easy-to-follow list of the work that has been completed. I love that the Wrike features that I use are free.
  • Editing of tasks
  • List creation
  • Selection of days spent on tasks
  • Easy to print lists
  • I would like for Wrike to offer more guidance on how to use its features.
  • I would like for Wrike to have a more noticeable way to print lists.
I really like the features of the free version of Wrike. It covers all of my tracking and logging needs. I really like the look of my printed log. Wrike make it easy to share my logs with my coworkers. I also like the ability to pin my projects so that I can easily find the ones that I am currently working on.

We use it for end to end project management for marketing, and learning development.

It addresses the need for visibility, standardisation, and all the standard features associated with project work.

In particular the ability to use blueprints significantly speeds up workflow set up and execution, and the ability to view projects in board, table, and card views is very useful.
  • Reformatting the data into different views
  • Advanced features including blueprints, forms, automation
  • Advanced project and resource mangement using gantt charts, linked tasks, etc
  • Wrike is very technical and complex, simplifying the user experience should be priority 1
  • There is a lack of clarity in how to find certain things, sometimes it takes me 5 minutes to remember where blueprints, forms, and automation are found, each is in a different place buried in menus
Wrike is great if you already have good project management rhythms, and an agile coach or owner of the workflows who understands Wrike in depth.

If all you need is a simple task board, with basic project management features, there are better tools to use, for example Trello.

We used Write in Leica Biosystems as a project management tool, especially in the Digital team, where we have different projects with different team members. We have people in different teams that need to work together and track the progress of the projects. Therefore, Write is a great collaborative environment where we communicate, put the project updates, and use it as a repository of the files and assets from a specific project.
  • projects that can be linked to different folders.
  • Options in the task menu, such as priorities, subitems dependency.
  • View of the projects and dashboards
  • Spaces
  • At the beginning it takes time to get use to it, so the learning curve it is a bit long
  • Internal search - sometimes is difficult to find old task
  • Calendar
From my point of view Wrike is a great tool that can fit any team that needs to manage a project. For us it facilitates a lot our work and our team is very well informed about the project needs and updates. However, what we experience is that people that are not use to work with project management tool like commercial marketing team, they find it difficult and a bit overwhelming as it takes time to understand and manage.

We use Wrike to manage all our incoming requests for clients, to sort all our new projects amongst our team, and to keep track of all canceled websites. Another feature we use all the time is the comments and email feature which is included on the projects. This is a major help in keeping projects and all the tasks that come with a project in order.
  • Keep projects organized by assigning who is working on them
  • The email feature where you can email clients directly through the platform
  • The stages that you can assign a project to.
  • It is a tough learning curve and took me a few months to get the hang of it.
  • Make the "Search" feature easier to find. It took me forever to find it and my teammates ask me where it is located.
  • The overall look is busy. This is not a particularly big issue to me but a sleek and cleaner look would be cool!
If you have new projects coming in on a weekly basis this is a great product to keep your bearings. Things can get messy really quickly so the step by step processes you can create in a project and assign each one of those steps to a teammate is wonderful.

It helps keep our projects on track so not everything is jumbled up in emails. It keeps projects and tasks organized with clear deadlines for the team to refer back to. It allows us to assign as well to our copy and designer and clearly shows which of our PMs are on it as well. Furthermore we can clearly see at which status each project is at as well and what will come next in terms of steps to continue to move things forward.
  • Keep projects organized
  • Assign and create tasks
  • Assign deadlines
  • Keep track of status
  • Taking away individuals from subtasks can be better - right now you have to click into each subtask
  • the calendar feature I've found to be wonky as well
  • notifications - if you edit and tag, that notification does not seem to go through
It's great for keeping track of projects/deliverables so if you deal with those a lot I'd recommend it. It's relatively easy to use, with only a bit of a learning curve. Overall, I like it though of course it isn't perfect.

We use Wrike for project management. We've been using it for more than 5 years and it really helped us a ton in managing and keep track on our projects. Wrike made our daily work much easier to assess and manage. We can easily connect with stakeholders and collaborate on projects. I highly recommend Wrike.

  • Project management
  • Status tracking
  • Visibility
  • New interface, the buttons are too small
  • too many options
  • accessibility of users
It is well suited for big corporations with a hug number of team members and departments. Collaborating on tasks, editing and tracking of project status is super easy and the learining curve to use it isn't that steep. I can't imagine working on a bunch of projects without Wrike. It really made our projects easier to manage.

Project and task management, we use Wrike to connect stakeholders, requestors and creators. We also use it recieve different project request through an intranet page.
  • Project request
  • Time management
  • Reporting
  • Project tracking
  • User interface, can be cleaner
  • cleaner and more intuitive URL
  • Project codenames thru query string eg. EM-2042
  • User centered dashboard, e.g. highlighting projects that are overdue etc.
If a team has at least 8 members with fast paced tasks/projects. Wrike can organize them by providing project tracking for each member and report to the manager as well. Managers can also do a single click follow up. or (bump up) task.

It is less appropriate to use for regular and recurring tasks, however, it is good to have a feature having this, for example, bi monthly newsletters every 1st and 15th. Wrike would notify stakeholders to provide materials, while creators will be provided a preview.

We are an advertising agency located in Guatemala City, and we utilize Wrike to efficiently manage the operations of our creative, media, and account departments. Wrike serves as our central platform for organizing client requests, tracking the status of each task, and providing an accurate estimate of the time allocated to each project. With our rapid team expansion, maintaining comprehensive oversight of our work has become imperative.
  • Task or project status
  • Time control
  • Record of every step of the tasks
  • Comparison of images to visualize changes
  • Time control for people outside the team
  • The privacy control of guests could be more intuitive
  • If the creator of the task is not assigned to it, the @asignees tag won't send a notification to them
Wrike is a highly comprehensive tool, but its learning curve can be steep. Many of its features are excellent, and the user experience would greatly benefit from increased intuitiveness. The platform performs notably better in its web-based or desktop application format. The mobile app offers limited functionalities; for instance, it does not support video downloads to the device, which is essential when working remotely.

I can into the organization when Wrike was used by ~30 people within the Marketing department and oversaw the growth of the tool over 7 years as it grew to 300 users in 12 different department across every business unit. We utilized it for Project Management for National media campaigns, Work management for Queue based team processing Salesforce tickets, and for M&A Integration management. We have used about ever feature Wrike has to offer at various level and support team who are entry level coming out of excel based workflow, all the wya up to full Agile team doing website engineering via Scrum process. When committed to apply and maintaining Wrike properly, the information sharing and therefore business acceleration is world class.
  • Project Managment: Production, Technical, and Service
  • Program Management: Cross-organization initiative coordination
  • Work Management: Queue based team task intake and routing
  • Wrike Analyze is very powerful, could using some ease-of-use improvement
  • Wrike Resources: Great for task level allocation, could use a simpler/hire level Project allocation options
  • Ability to make more custom user interfaces that could be embedded in places like SharePoint pages.
In my opinion, Wrike is Well suited for any team who want to improve the way they get work done and wants to break down silos and get out of being trapped in desktop files and email. I think Wrike is less appropriate for teams who what simple excel style chart building or closed team technical back end engineering code deployment CI/CD.

At first, the system seemed a little challenging, but the learning curve was extremely easy. Wrike keeps everything in order, it has an easy communication system to send and receive messages, and then have the feedback transformed into your work. All of this is in one app and online platform. It truly made everything convenient. As a company, using this product makes everything streamlined. From the first level of employer input to the receiving employees, and then back down the channel, everything is so easy to use and the training takes little time. You truly do not miss any correspondence or other important information because it is right there for you on your phone, by way of email, or online.
  • They provide a quality platform that can be used in multiple ways (online, phone app, email). This provides the user with plenty of notifications and manner to communicate openly on a project.
  • The system to upload files and immediately provide feedback is streamline. It takes the guesswork out of where something is because it is right there in front of you.
  • It allows communication easier for those who are not in the same corporation/company/business. It creates a way for the communication to seem like it is inter-office without the need to constantly login to new platforms and get confused to where a file may be stored to look over.
  • The initial use can seem frustrating. Once you know how to use it, it is amazing, but it is the upfront work that can be slightly confusing.
  • There can be some challenges with the log in process. There can sometimes be issues with passwords but that really is not a huge concern.
  • The messaging system with file sharing can sometimes get confusing. There were moments where trying to find the most recent communication seemed trapped among other messages.
Do not hesitate to use Wrike for your company or organization. It really is a great way to use among employees, share information, yet present it in a clear and concise manner. There are other choices, but this choice does a great job in document sharing with feedback. That is what makes it a better alternative than other programs or platforms.

Our creative team uses Wrike to assign, schedule, track and collaborate on projects. Each project is entered into Wrike and assigned to the appropriate team member with a clear deadline. As progress is made on each project, the assigned team member tracks progress using the provided status indicators (in progress, proof out, complete, etc.). When collaborating is needed, team members tag each other in particular tasks and can work together by sharing drafts, reviewing/approving content and more.
  • Status tracking
  • Assigning tasks
  • Setting deadlines
  • Producing reports to track productivity
  • Reviewing and approving deliverables
  • The review function could be developed further - more precise marking on shared files.
  • Sometimes attached files take a long time to load.
My team creates marketing materials that have to be reviewed and edited by other members of our team. Wrike makes it easy to assign those products to the appropriate team members, track the project's status, keep an eye on its deadline and share drafts with others for review and approval.

Wrike is our primary project management tool and the basis for how we both organize and initiate cross-functional Marketing projects. One of our primary use cases is using Wrike's built-in Blueprint functionality to standardize workflows for projects that touch a large number of marketing roles, including defining SLAs, dependencies, and task automation—all of which helps us accelerate delivery times and ensure everyone has access to requisite information to complete their portion of the project.
  • Workflow Automation
  • Approvals
  • Design Reviews & Markup
  • UX: Wrike isn't the most elegant software but gets the job done.
  • Ease-of-Use: The software has a steep learning curve for new users.
  • Automation Rules: Automation is great when it works but requires some trial and error to get it to function the way you intend.
  • Project Management: Wrike is a very powerful tool for larger Marketing teams that need a way to standardize workflows. It is highly flexible and can be customized in a near-infinite number of ways based on how you work & what you need to track.
  • Reviews/Approvals: Wrike excels at approval workflows, specifically for high-fidelity design reviews. It is a fantastic tool for PDF/Video/PPT markup, with support for contextual comments/feedback and versioning. Wrike also allows for external reviews (non-users), which is a nice perk for those who need to share collateral with stakeholders outside of their Marketing organization.
  • Calendars/Dashboards: As mentioned, Wrike has a ton of functionality. I particularly like the multi-layer calendaring capabilities, which allow for distinct calendar views for different campaigns, asset types, or anything else you need to track or visualize. Dashboards are also very powerful (though, I don't find Wrike's native widgets to be particularly useful).

I use Wrike for project managing the production of design deliverables, web pages, print materials, and other deliverables for our marketing team. The blueprints, Gantt charts, automation, and forms make this platform indispensable, especially since we juggle numerous projects simultaneously. I've built numerous forms to address the flow of incoming requests from other departments, all of which create tasks or projects instantly—sending notifications to assignees automatically. This feature alone has helped our team become more nimble as requests become visible in Wrike instead of direct emails and Slack DMs. In addition, I create road maps for recurring projects quickly using Wrike's customizable blueprints, and assignees are automatically notified of new tasks and timelines upon establishment. Our team needed a project management tool that provided full visibility of the workload that was relatively easy to implement and onboard. Our previous solution offered limited visibility for projects, provided little to no capability to see roadmap conflicts, and offered various integrations for existing communication tools (e.g., Slack, Google Suite, etc.). We wanted something that provided customized project templates, offered ease in project management, and easily organized related assets/files.
  • Wrike's options to set dependencies keep projects moving automatically without occupying the project manager's time to update each assignee that a task is ready to move forward.
  • Every member of the team has full visibility into every project in the space, allowing us to be a highly efficient, nimble team.
  • Tagging options make projects easy to find within the workspace, and we've found this helpful when assigning projects to our AGILE sprints.
  • Gantt charts quickly identify workload overload, and it helps our team to balance workloads effectively.
  • Dashboards are fully customizable for both reports and team management, which we use during our sprint planning sessions.
  • Blueprints make duplicating repeated project roadmaps lightening fast, saving time in building road maps for our project managers.
  • Building dashboards can be a little tricky, but Wrike's customer service is quick to respond and quite helpful.
  • The onboarding videos have been so helpful to our team—I would like a deeper dive into using Dashboards and Reports added to these resources for our team to reference.
  • Teams must come to a consensus about which notification settings are a must for ease of communication. We found that if someone only has daily reports turned on and at-mentions silenced, notifications are not as effective.
  • There is not currently a way to add images or embedded links in forms. This would be helpful for us as we develop forms for design requests so that recipients can select from different options with a visual.
  • When developing forms, there is only an option to include one tag with the ticket/task/project that results. We use multiple tags to keep projects visible in different team folders, so having that option would be quite helpful in saving us the time of tagging requests manually.
Wrike has offered us the option to organize our project load into AGILE sprints by identifying a folder per sprint and tagging each project specifically for that sprint. The dashboard we've established to identify priorities for each sprint has also helped us in identifying process improvements and team balance—it's a useful tool for team management as well as project management. Communication is documented within each task, so it allows our team to be nimble and redistribute tasks if needed—whoever takes on the task will have a full background of the feedback and purpose for that task. It's easy for us to connect links or Google Suite items to projects and tasks, keeping a full library of associated project resources a the mere press of a button (File tab). Wrike has changed the way we work as an efficient team!

We utilized Wrike to manage our creative projects. We used Timelines, workflows, reviews, forms, etc. within the platform to stay organized. Any time someone within the business had a project request they'd submit a form that would come to us. We set up blueprints so certain projects automatically populated with the correct workflow to complete each project.
  • organizing projects
  • reviewal process for outside (non users)
  • blueprints/workflows
  • adding people to projects
  • request forms.
  • Platform overall itself isn't simple. There are a lot of buttons and things going in everywhere
  • dashboard views are chaotic
  • not pretty/aesthetically pleasing
I think it is well suited to keep small teams organized and work across an organization on creative projects. As a creative, being able to upload my work to be reviewed and move through the content approval process was especially nice for me.

I found that team members (non creatives) didn't enjoy the platform as much. Aesthetically theres a lot going on and I wouldn't deem it as "easy to use". It took a few weeks to train our team in it and we still felt like we didn't know the entire platform.

My team uses Wrike as a project management tool. Before, we had to email individual stakeholders, team members, and freelancers to delegate tasks and outline projects. Wrike is our workaround for this now, and it's cleaned out our inboxes and improved team efficiency all around. We also use it to request new user profiles for the different software platforms we use today.
  • The UX is very intuitive. The fact that there is a search bar means that nothing is ever lost.
  • The ability to get really granular with folders is very helpful. I can categorize the different tasks within projects with ease.
  • The comment feature within individual tasks makes communication simple. We're always up to date on the status of projects.
  • As much as I love the UI, it can be a little overwhelming. An option of viewing a "simplified" version would be wonderful on chaotic days.
Wrike is changing the game of project management. Prior to using it, I had to email individual stakeholders and freelancers to delegate tasks. My inbox was so messy, and we were missing deadlines. Not anymore. With Wrike, I can create, detail, and arrange my tasks into efficient, searchable folders. I especially love the status tracker, and the comment features for communication. It's great to have all the information and attachments in one spot that assignees can access. The UX is intuitive and easy to navigate, so I know exactly where everything is. Productivity within the team has never been better, and I feel so organized. Wrike is the best platform in its category, and it just keeps innovating.

We use Wrike to project manage our marketing requests for the entire university. Before Wrike we relied on email, and the result was chaos. Now we can not only track and manage all the requests more efficiently and effectively, but we can see metrics on how many requests are completed in a given year.
  • Provide a single place for intake of requests
  • Streamline and consolidate communication around requests
  • Provide metrics on numbers of requests handled and in what timeframe
  • Notifications can be a bit overwhelming, but are customizable
  • Visual interface is a bit dated
Wrike is great for project management and tracking. It might be less useful for collaboration on a specific project between multiple departments.

Our design firm has many clients and Wrike is the perfect compliment to what we do every day. We can track, manage, understand exactly where we are in the process. When you're working with many different projects it's easy to get lost. But with Wrike, all those problems go away and we are able to manage all our clients efficiently. There is a little bit of a learning curve with this program, but it can be used at various levels to serve the needs of the client. I like that!
  • Time management
  • Deadlines
  • Milestones
  • Efficiency
  • update user interface
  • combine some features to make it easier
  • use AI to understand the process
Managing clients from start to finish. At least in our business. Managing assets, deadlines and full scale projects. If the job is small and can be done quickly, i'd only use Wrike to manage the schedule. Because these types of tasks can be done in a day or two. With large scale projects Wrike becomes a necessity for me.

Within our organization, we heavily depend on Wrike, a project management tool, to effectively manage and orchestrate our written and audiobook projects in collaboration with our clients. This not only guarantees that all stakeholders are on the same page but also enables us to meet production deadlines with ease and efficiency.
  • keeps large projects organized
  • helps keep all stakeholders on pace with the production schedule
  • helps keep all team members up to date on the production steps and their completion.
  • high price point for a small business
  • steep learning curve for first time users
Overall, in my experience, Wrike provides an extensive selection of tools and functionalities that enable efficient project management. With its real-time capabilities, Wrike has successfully improved communication and collaboration between stakeholders and remote team members. This has resulted in enhanced productivity and streamlined workflows, ultimately contributing to the success of our projects.

Both Traditional and Agile project styles
Wrike's reports are used to allow upper management to universally understand the status of the project regardless of which style it's being managed as
Wrike's Forms allow us to manage incoming new product ideas and support tasks for sustaining products.
  • Product level viewing options
  • customer support
  • easily customizable
  • recent lightspeed update lost features (supposedly will come back but not immediately available)
  • Admin/ Owner visibility/access is sometimes limited
Wrike (like most these work management tools) is intended for the employee to 'live' in the environment for it to work most efficiently and reap the full benefits. In order for this to happen, a company needs to fully commit using the tool across all departments.

however, it can still work well as a task management and reporting tool even without full company buy in.

All Project Management in the Ops department. The Fleet department was recently onboarded and it has been a great success. Marketing and Design will soon be onboarded also along with additional Administrative staff to assist the Ops department.

As a company operating globally, Wrike solves many communication issues for us, we lose far less information and things are achieved in a much more efficient, accurate and most importantly, accountable way now. It provides us with a much clearer picture of what resources are needed and where, and helps us identify gaps and potential issues before they happen. It has significantly reduced both the volume of and need for long email "conversations", and other less transparent ways of communicating such as chat messaging and phone calling, getting us much closer to the ultimate goal; a single source of truth for all our projects, every time.
  • Collaborative Work Management
  • Delegation and managing accountability across diverse resources
  • Being the information hub for a project
  • Achieving Organisational Nirvana
  • Wrike Discover could use some updating and the sign-on process is cumbersome
  • Significantly more powerful duplication functionality to allow ease of replicating work structures and various work items, custom item types, blueprints and forms etc *across spaces*
  • Dashboard visibility for the Collaborator License!
  • Ability to grant/revoke permissions for collaborators to edit custom field data
When sufficient time and effort is spent to properly and thoroughly build a robust Wrike ecosystem for a company, it is an absolute game changer for efficiency, productivity, transparency and accountability, detailed time and resource management, and more effective, collaborative and speedy communication within teams and between departments.

I am a huge fan (!!) and only wish our company would invest more to train up a Wrike Champion in each office, and also invest more time and effort to have all users trained to a much higher level in the tool, to better leverage it and squeeze even more value from the investment and choice to make Wrike our work platform of choice.

Wrike is primarily an internal ticket manager that assigns projects within our department. It helps me keep organized. The UI is fantastic and the visual side help my learning disability. Being able to see expectations, tasks, due dates and other information in a presentation that makes sense to me has been a killer assistant to my day to day work.
  • Ui
  • Notification system
  • Ease of use
  • User pinging
  • Due date/calendar syncing
Fantastic to use as internal project management. Lacks good communication tools so will need to be supplemented with something like Slack. Not quite an all in one solution but comes close.

We use wrike as a project management system it helps keep track of tasks within overall projects and is able to hold team members accountable for their step in the process. This product has helped us be able to work cross-departmentally with ease and achieve quick turnaround times. As a user, I am creating and updating blueprints, flipping requests into full campaign projects and project managing all within wrike.
  • project manage
  • associate accountability
  • clear deadlines
  • smoother transition of a project request within a project (when it involves a separate department)
  • the learning curve to use initially use wrike
  • n/a
Using Wrike is great for project management and being able to determine what tasks are needed to be completed within an overall project. It is convenient because all the information you need is in project level and makes it easy to refer back to when needing clarification OR if another employee jumps into the project for additional help.

We use it for workflow and tracking project progress within various use cases in order to ensure timely executables for multiple teams. Many teams are on various time zones and business units. Using wrike allows for better collaboration and keeps accountability for all involved in helping serve those we help on a daily basis.
  • Work flow
  • Accountability
  • Promptness
  • More customization
  • Replicating common work flows
  • Easier to cross path track between tasks
I believe Wrike is best suited for work flows with various team members need to see and track where the progress on a project resides and who needs to do what when.
I believe it is less well suited when the task might be part of a larger task and something that needs replication. I do think Wrike is ever improving.
