Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

I have been using Wrike since 2012 and it has made everything more efficient: from event planning, managing big projects, day to day tasks, as a way to give yourself reminders, and even tracking onboarding/training of new clients and employees. The possibilities are almost endless with the amount of functionality they have.
  • Project Management has been perfected
  • Helps you also stay on top of daily tasks
  • Also perfect for analyzing productivity of you and your team
  • Need a better way to message on tasks without flooding email
  • As a marketing team, everything needs to be sent to compliance for final review, it would be nice to be able to mark a task as "review needed" when setting it up so that it will automatically set up a new task for our compliance officer with dependencies so that we do not need to do it ourselves every time. Seems minor, but I feel like a lot of organizations have a final review
  • Better free training options. I have discovered a lot of their best features through my own due diligence and think they can do a better job of promoting and informing clients of their new tips, tricks, features.
  • Improved employee efficiency is a big one for us.
  • Prioritizing importance is also big. You can create subtasks or list importance and things like that
  • Productivity is huge. We definitely have finished more projects and done more work since switching to Wrike.
Using Outlook's system for Tasks and CRM for projects. Both of these are not as easy to use or as robust as Wrike, but they do sync with our internal systems better. At the end of the day, using the best option vs. the one that syncs with our systems won out.

Wrike is very well suited for teams that have to collaborate a lot, especially if they are not all in the same office. Also great for teams that don't necessarily collaborate together but have their tasks dependent on someone else completing another task first. Wrike is really great for managing big/long term projects as well as daily tasks so the types of projects you work on do not matter. Also, they can automatically create reports so that you can review your productivity, as well as the productivity of your team, which is great for performance reviews.
