Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

We use Wrike to keep track of and schedule our assignments, which go out to multiple platforms with different needs and are touched by multiple team members. The request forms are great for working with people in other departments who typically do not use Wrike. It really helps me keep track of my assignments and keep in touch with my collaborators. My use case is fairly minor: I mostly mark off the status of projects that I'm working on. Sometimes I'll go in and edit the timeline if we run into an unforeseen delay or something of that nature.

Pros

  • Organization
  • Great Calendar View
  • Communication with Collaborators

Cons

  • None of the layouts make a whole lot sense to me, but they work well enough. Might just be me!
  • some layouts look like word vomit, too much text/details
  • customization feels a little clunky and unintuitive to me
  • Keeps me and my team on deadline
  • Keeps our team in touch and up to date on each others status
  • Good for sharing documents and other files multiple people need
This is much better than On Air Pro. That software felt like it never left 2009; crashes, clunky, unintuitive, only worked on site in the office while connected to the company's servers. It can be easy to get lost in software like this, but you all do a great job of keeping it clean for the most part.

Do you think Wrike delivers good value for the price?

Not sure

Are you happy with Wrike's feature set?

Yes

Did Wrike live up to sales and marketing promises?

I wasn't involved with the selection/purchase process

Did implementation of Wrike go as expected?

I wasn't involved with the implementation phase

Would you buy Wrike again?

Yes

Anything project-based where designers, writers, and editors are working together on a product. We make promos, so it's great to keep us aware of our deadlines to make air and to facilitate handoffs to post-production audio, colorist, and motion graphic artists. It may not be as necessary for one-man band situations, but I can see this working for all types of industries in some way shape or form.
