Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Wrike for a variety of external request forms, that we then internally manage amongst different teams to efficiently allocate work and prioritize tasks. It's used by multiple departments, with greatest buy in and usage from our Marketing team, and has helped increase our organization and workload management. It's taken many tasks that usually get lost in email, and put them into a clean, easy platform.

It's great for managing a lot of deliverables/attachments and different stakeholders. It's very good for creating task boards and assigning work and checking on progress.

It's less good at visualizing outputs and easily seeing workload and workflow analytics.
