Overall Satisfaction with Workfront

  • REPORTING: No matter the topic or structure I can find a way for Workfronts reporting capabilities to organize the data in a digestible way.
  • PROJECT PLANNING: After receiving an SOW Workfront makes it easy to structure a project plan for the life of a project. Predecessor options allow for easy updates.
  • INFORMATION SHARING: Communication setup allows for all project communication to be stored in one place so it's easy to reference whenever necessary.
  • It is a VERY robust software. If you don't have the time and manpower to really focus on setting it up correctly for your business it will be worthless to you.
  • There are often things that I want to share or remove from access levels of different job roles, and there are 2-3 different places to remove access. So it take a lot of digging to get used to where things are hiding.
  • As in any software like this. It's garbage in and garbage out. If you can't train your staff to utilize the software correctly/efficiently then it will be useless.
  • It has impacted the productivity by showing accurate views of capacity
  • It's a simple tool to add time to which helps motivate people to put in time often and accurately
  • We are in the process of rolling this out across more offices and being able to work in one system will streamline communication.
I didn't choose this software. I was hired into it. But the last internal solution I was using was useless comparably.
I'm coming from a very simple Resourcing tool to this Workfront Software, and it's superior in every way. The views I can get to current and future workloads, and how projects are progressing is stellar.
