Overall Satisfaction with Workfront

  • Keeps everything for a project in one place. This is a strength because we are not relying on someone else to keep track of what happened for future projects that are similar or that repeat. All the specs and the final content is in one place easy for people to access at any time.
  • Visibility to our business units. Workfront provides visibility to our business units so they can see exactly where their project is at. If there is an issue it can be updated right in the project and fixed quickly.
  • Resource management. Workfront has a great resource management system with the ability to do capacity planning. This way you can see very quickly when new requests come in if you have the resources to work on it.
  • Scorecards are wonderful. These are a great way to evaluate the work that comes in to see if it meets a certain set of guidelines that is set out by the company. Then you can see which type of resource you can assign to it, if other jobs needs to be shuffled around or delayed or perhaps the score is low and the request is not approved.
  • I would like to have training videos available on the basics for requestors. Where to find the request form, how to tell when your request has been changed into a project, where to find your documents when they are ready.
  • There are steps showing you how to set up a scorecard but some case studies from different fields on how they use a scorecard would be helpful.
  • I would LOVE it if you could proof Word documents in ProofHQ so that all of the tracked changes are captured in Workfront instead of having to download the document, make the changes in Word and then upload a new version. Much easier if it could be handled within Workfront.
  • Better able to manage workflows.
  • Productivity is better because people can easily see what they need to concentrate on and what can wait on their to-do list.
Workfront is well suited for anytime you need to manage something. It is good at outlining all of the steps needed and tracking where things are at automatically. Workfront is not well suited for businesses that use Word documents to create pieces. There is no way to track changes or approvals of the Word files.
