Reviews
(1-25 of 424)Wrike review
- Promotes transparency between departments
- Creates easy ways for leadership to keep their fingers on the pulse of project progress
- Decreases lost information in email inboxes
- Finding help online. There is SO much information that is sometimes takes a while to find a resource specific to your needs.
- Some enhancements that are requested by large numbers in the Wrike community and have many use case scenarios are not being considered for implementation.
- Being able to customize user permissions for custom fields would be very helpful.
a great collaboration tool
- 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
Wrike works for my team
- Visualisation
- Easy to use
- Time management
- Integration to SharePoint
Its worked well to start and also to get the team up to speed. But I would like Wrike to be a support longer during the startup phase.
Its a lot of tips and tricks on YouTube but to have the team do that is not easy.
All the bells and whistles!
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
If all you need is a simple task board, with basic project management features, there are better tools to use, for example Trello.
I love Wrike- Keeps me in check!
- Helps keep me accountable for collaborative tasks
- Helps give me visible into the full scope of the project
- Keeps me organized
- I think there are some user interface changes that can be made
- I think the way it is organized could be better
- I think the task tools could be streamlined
- Customization of task titles, blueprints, and task status
- Integrations with Box and Outlook and the ability to email tasks and folders
- Ability to view task lists in a number of different ways (by date, by title, by active status)
- Accessibility. It is near unusable for any user that employs a screen reader or other assistive technology. Wrike's inaccessible nature is the biggest reason we are considering a switch to a different project, despite being overall happy with its features.
- Ability to duplicate tasks and keep subtasks attached to the duplicated task
Front End Web Design and Wrike
- 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!
Wrike is a wonderful Project Management system
- Blueprints, Templates, and Request Forms
- Automations
- Dashboards
- Organization
- Duplicating tasks - When we've tried this in the past, sometimes it doesn't duplicate exactly as it should
- Notifications - Some people prefer to be notified when someone responds with an emoji, so maybe provide that as an option?
Wrike usage in my organization
- Centralized Communication
- Resource Management
- Real-time Progress Tracking
- Campaign Management
- Integrate with more marketing tools and platforms
- Expand automation capabilities to handle more repetitive tasks, streamline processes, and provide greater clarity
- Enhanced Reporting and Analytics
Real-time Progress Tracking: Wrike enables tracking progress in real time, adapting to changing circumstances, and integrating with platforms like Google Ads and Facebook for performance assessment
Wrike user for more than 3 years.
- Assigning tasks.
- Notifications
- Some tasks are missing, it doesn’t go to our inbox.
- On some requests, even if the assignees have already been centrally updated, it will still assign it to the previous person who handled the task.
Wrike User 1+ Years.
- Manages tasks.
- Dashboards
- Email reminders.
- Dates for tasks - will automatically set date for 2025.
- Assigning users - Will assign users to projects of its own accord.
- Limited functionality to label tasks.
Like Wrike 👍
- User friendly.
- Notification system.
- A lot of options for set up.
- None
My Wrike Experience
- Time stamping the various stages.
- Easy access to specific projects.
- Task management.
- The new user interface is not so great.
- Better and smarter filter options are needed.
- Integrating AI to sub-manage the tasks.
All around great project management tool
- Task-level UI
- Multiple views to choose from
- Dashboard UI - very clean and attractive visuals
- Innovation and new features
- Tags! I wish they used tags instead of folders.
- Filters - I'm not a fan of filters. They make jumping between different types of tasks clunky (even if I save them as presets).
- Active tasks - I wish there was a simple ON/OFF button to show or not show active tasks.
- I wish there was a way to "call" and populate a blueprint straight from inside a task.
Comprehensive solution, sometimes too comprehensive.
- Tracks progress of projects with details.
- Links similar projects together for better visibility.
- Good system of record for approvals.
- Complicated to use for someone who isn't a power user.
- Almost too much customization at times.
An Essential Staple!
- Keeps deliverables and tasks separated
- Ease of use
- Populating timing based on beginning and end dates
- I wish we could take away people from subtasks using the main Wrike ticket instead of having to click inside the subtasks first - it would improve efficiency.
- The calendar feature isn't the easiest thing to use.
- When you edit a Wrike ticket after you've already tagged someone, if you tag a new person from the edit that person does not receive the tag. This ideally would be fixed.
Great for project management for smaller teams
- Automation of project requests received from stakeholders
- Detailed workflows for every project
- Templates for different job types
- Ability to deploy a ticketing system like, for instance, ServiceNow.
My Experience with Wrike...
- User friendly.
- Gives various ways to organize your tasks.
- It can be adjusted to fit a company's needs throughout the year.
- I would like to see the ability for a user to filter messages where they are directly mentioned or a group they are in is mentioned. Our company sends hundreds of messages regarding 50-60 events to different groups, so the inbox can get very busy throughout the day.
- The ability to create templated responses within the body of the message in a task. Thinking maybe creating an add-on option that is exclusive to each user.
- If a user creates checkboxes in the description, it would be nice if someone checks their box. It would notify those assigned to the task.
Great Tool for Collaborative Project Management
Also used by some Marketing groups for project management.
- User experience is pretty good, easy to use, nice interface, good performance
- Gantt chart features are built for good productivity
- Personalization of email alerts
- Configuration of workflows and custom fields should allow to configure more restrictive actions for users - It is too open and leaves room for user errors.
We are still trying, but…
- Collaboration
- Integration with Microsoft
- Time and project accounting
- Speed
- Reporting
- Analytics
Wrike - fun easy to use project management software
- like the hierarchy structure of Wrike
- liked the tagging feature where a task was tagged in multiple places
- sub tasks was good as well and can have different layers of sub tasks
- I would like color coding for statuses and flexibility to create statuses on the fly
- use as a ticketing system may be limited
- search functionality could be improved
Wrike - more of an online Spreadsheet
- Tasks are displayed in an easy-to-use table view. And most importantly, there are many other views, such as the invoice view, to name a few.
- Automated messages and emails to remind you when the date approaches.
- Ability to assign tasks and achievements to individuals.
- Deleted tasks are not permanently deleted and can be restored.
- Changes made leave a record of the user's details, making it easy to track who did what.
- Loop structure when designing request forms.
- Dashboard color coding options.
- When creating a request form, have a condition that if you select option Q1: it will skip 3 questions and jump to Q5.
- Looping options in forms - after submitting a form a button to appear to create a new record.
Wrike works for what we needed it to do.
- Customizable Forms
- Collaborative Editing and Comments
- Automation Workflows
- The email notifications that are automatically sent from Wrike when something is done are easy for users to miss or ignore.
- Reporting can be limited. You have to create workarounds for collecting/storing the name of the person submitting the form in instances where they do not have their own Wrike license.
- A more user-friendly interface, especially for those less familiar with project management software, would enhance overall accessibility.
The download on wrike
- Organizes tasks
- Easily assign ownership
- Stay abreadst of project deadlines
- More in tune with automatic date functionality
- More user friendly design
- Dashboard options could be expanded
Collaborating Better Together
- Contextual collaboration - bringing people from different teams in together and having them know exactly what their contribution needs to be
- Proofing/reviewing work - approval and proofing features are extremely helpful especially when we expect this from folks who aren't in Wrike
- Creating plans for repetitive work - otherwise called blueprints, we can create these templates and trigger them to get started on projects and tasks
- Request forms - capturing details of requests and connecting folks with the right team(s) to get the work done
- Automations - while they constantly improve this, there are still some basic automation capabilities that I'd love to see within Wrike
- Messy - it can get rather messy, especially when working with thousands of tasks
I would have said that Wrike is best suited for teamwork and less suited for personal work, but that would be a lie. There's a personal space where users can keep track of their own work, deliverables, reminders, etc.
