Alternatives Considered

monday.com, Microsoft Teams and Slack

Adobe is very intuitive in its workflow automation and creation of the task workflows that can be used as templates for employees. That is harder to create in Teams unless there is [the] integration of another Microsoft product and more time spent on it by an IT professional. It's a solid application that makes it easy to onboard new team members to the system and get great results by them understanding the tools provided.

Likelihood to Recommend

A lot of the projects or business development projects/accounts that we process are mini-projects in itself, however, there are a few similarities in some projects related to the improvements required or the type of technology needed. So the idea of creating templates was something that we missed in other applications. Workfront is great for managing tasks according to the category of templates we have used in the past. It keeps our employees' life easy and super easy to onboard new team members where we can show them the previous projects.
