Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

Wrike is currently only being used in the IT department/organisation. It is used to plan/log projects as well as prioritising when an ad-hoc task is discovered. Many use Wrike as a form of communication of a project's status.
  • Prioritising to-do lists
  • Communicating progress
  • Dashboards to view other's workload
  • Ambiguous between tasks/projects/tags/folders
  • Layout can seem cluttered and confusing
  • Requires all other collegues to be utilising in a similar way
Would probably prefer to use Trello or Drive personally, but due to department already using Wrike I started to learn how to use it. The organisation is now adopting O365 on a wider scale and I'm not sure Wrike will be able to keep up with Microsoft's developments. These products all require a community of workers to get the full benefit so I cannot review how the stack against each other.
Haven't logged any support calls, but Wrike Assistant provides great amount of information & tips. The fact it intergrates with many other tools is very useful.

Wrike is well suited to 'chunking' down a project into smaller more achievable tasks. Not so suited for logging of service calls or minor changes to current systems.
