Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Wrike is being used in our organization as a multiple project management application in the Business Operations Department. Our organization has multiple teams and each team has multiple projects. So we require an organized way to see a holistic view of all team's work and open projects. Wrike works for us as we can get a birds-eye view of all open projects in the dashboard.

Pros and Cons

Intuitive Design: A lot of team members are not PMs, so it's easy to use.
Visibility: A holistic view of all open projects.
Task Assignment: It's easy to assign tasks to multiple users.

Mobile Devices: I wish there was a version for smart phones.
Downloads: Sometimes it's not as efficient to download files/folder.

Most Important Features

Alternatives Considered

Asana, monday.com and Microsoft Project

I have used multiple project management software and applications, and I feel Wrike is definitely one of the most usable ones for teams of under 100 people. This is very easy to work, vs Microsoft Project, where you have to take tutorials before even beginning to use that. I think Wrike is one of the best project management software available on the market.

Likelihood to Recommend

I absolutely will recommend Wrike to other organization with teams of under 100 people as it can safely and very efficiently manage multiple projects. I feel if there are more than a 100 people working on a team e.g. a big architecture project, then it wouldn't be suitable. But for our Business Operations team with multiple teams, all consisting of under 30 people each, this is such a well-suited project management system. The Team leads can assign projects and the PMs can get an overall view of everyone's timelines.

Wrike is Right for Work Teams!
