Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

Our communications office is an agency for the university's colleges, departments, and units. As we intake a wide variety of marketing projects, our project managers use Wrike to outline deadlines and keep our team of writers, designers, videographers, and others on track.
  • Offers several ways to view tasks depending on what's most helpful to you
  • A lot of crossover functionalities with other tools (@ mention people, command K to hyperlink, etc.)
  • It's easy to get lost in Wrike because of the volume of information and also the variety of ways that information can be displayed.
  • The Wrike desktop app is slow and takes up a lot of memory.
  • There is a delay between the time updates are sent and the time Wrike sends an email with those updates.
  • We missed a few internal deadlines in the early stages of using Wrike as we were still figuring out how it works.
  • However, once we figured it out, Wrike played an integral role in helping us manage more projects than ever (and earn more profits than ever).

Yes

Would you buy Wrike again?

Yes

I enjoy using Wrike for my own personal to-do list, as well as for smaller marketing projects, but we've found it difficult to use it for projects with a lot of moving parts, and several teams have missed deadlines because of this.
