Overall Satisfaction with Workfront
- One strength is the Legacy Capacity Planning tool. I am actually upset this is being removed, because it has been a tool I use every single day.
- Being able to set predecessors is extremely helpful to plan out a whole project.
- Timelines - creating timelines from workfront with accurate dates is a very easy process.
- One very small but irritating thing about Workfront is that when a project has more than 100 tasks, you have to open the button at the bottom to load all tasks. I wish there was a way to default the setting to show all tasks.
- The speed of workfront could be improved. Sometimes, it just stops loading altogether and I have to wait an hour to try again to update my project.
- I believe the scheduling tool is not very helpful and there would be much better ways we could use a tool for scheduling things.
- I believe workfront has definitely helped us with capacity planning which is a major feature for working in a large organization with a lot of projects
- It has helped very much with managing productivity with the hours featured and being able to track time for every single task/
- For efficiency, when workfront is loading very slow or not functioning at all, it is difficult to have to put down what I was doing and come back to it after Workfront has finished loading.
The only other project management software I have used is Traffic Live. Traffic Live was the worst project management software I have ever seen. I do not have too many other project management softwares to compare Workfront to, but it is definitely something I believe is a great tool for an organization like mine, a marketing agency, to use.
