Overall Satisfaction with Mavenlink

Mavenlink is used by our Branded Department. We use the tool to track the production of all projects our department receives. We rely on the Timeline tab to track our deliverables to be sent to clients so they understand the length of a project and when they are responsible for feedback. We use the time tracking tool to help up understand how much effort is being put into a project. We use this as a gauge for if we are over spending or meeting the mark on a project.
  • Create custom fields specific to our department.
  • Easily track time on projects and tasks.
  • Creating timelines with templates so we aren't starting from scratch each time.
  • A better resourcing tool. Its difficult to schedule time to a person.
  • Cleaner section for communication.
  • A better reporting functionality. No way for someone not on every project to see the big picture.
  • It has been positive for helping us scale so we can track multiple projects in one system and collaborate across states and countries.
  • Great to house data and makes it easier to pull out info and report on in separate system.
Mavenlink is not a creative agency specific system which Workamajig is. Mavenlink could use more updates to their resourcing tool, time tracking and reporting in order to be more beneficial to a creative based company.
Mavenlink is well suited for a company looking to create schedules for projects and help teams stay on track. It becomes less helpful for when the quantity of projects increases. If you need to tool to understand how much work is on your team's plate it is not as useful unless you have great reporting skills.
