Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

Our team uses this to keep track of projects, our activities, and our schedule. We use this to manage our current project and its been extremely handy for us. I set up and assign tasks to my team using this and it lets me track those things very easily. The tagging features are really powerful if you use them correctly. It is also really good at keeping a record of our communication which in turn leads to improved accountability within our team.

It has definitely contributed positively to our timely delivery on goals.
  • It is really scalable. Works well in multiple use case scenarios.
  • You can customize it to a fairly large extent so you can make it work with whatever your workflow might be.
  • Good reporting features.
  • It is pretty simple to use, won't require training or downtime on your team to get this up and running.
  • No downloads needed, works great right out of the browser. Plus the mobile version is nice too.
  • Pricing is certainly a limiting factor depending on your team/business size.
  • Notifications are overwhelming. Maybe there is an option that I missed that controls that though.
  • Improved accountability for individuals.
  • Improved visibility for the entire team.
  • Good reporting structure.
  • Gives us excellent tracking options on time spent withing a project.
We tried Trello and were using Basecamp before that for similar purposes. We went with Wrike because people on the team had used it previously and it got really good feedback from them. The pricing also worked well for a team/project of our size.
Its a really good tool if you are managing a mid-sized team working on a project. It will certainly improve your planning and organizational capability. Especially within the team. It also encourages accountability on an individual level which I love. It also improves the visibility of the project within the team.

If you have a smaller sized team or if you work on really short term projects, you can probably get away without using something like this.
