Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

We use Wrike to manage ongoing projects, development and operation tasks.
What brings most value is the easy way of creating the Gantt charts, scheduling and monitoring tasks as well as communicating responsibilities with the project team.
Currently we are implementing customized workflows, request forms and custom item types which helps us tailor the Wrike experience for each departments need.

Pros

  • Different overviews of the tasks - dashboards, gantt charts, lists, tables
  • Lot of options for customization - workflows, custom item types, custom project types
  • Great support team, easy to reach with immediate response and help to any question we have
  • Good integration with other applications (Outlook, Teams etc.)

Cons

  • More options for filtering tasks on the overview (e.g. by the custom fields)
  • All projects in one place - easier to manage
  • People working in more unified way with projects

No

Would you buy Wrike again?

Yes

Well suited: 1. We are starting a new project within process optimization for Purchasing Team - all tasks and communication are set up in Wrike, and Project Team members are assigned to their own tasks. Project Manager has an easy overview of all tasks, schedules, and progress of the project. Whenever some tasks are late, he can see who and why are late and take proper action. Project Team members can see which tasks are assigned to them and what deadlines they have. 2. Thanks to Request Forms, employees without Wrike access can send their ideas for development to Project Manager and thanks to automation rule, the idea would appear on Project Managers task list in Wrike. Less appropriate: 1. Having an overview and manage the daily, repetitive operation tasks.
