Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Wrike for project management purposes and tracking public relations tasks. By changing the workflow status, my team is able to track where we are with certain tasks. Being able to create our own workflow specifically for public relations is why Wrike works for our industry over other tools, like monday.com.

Alternatives Considered

monday.com

Our team evaluated tools like monday.com, but this tool had fixed workflows and we could not alter them to our needs, which was not very helpful for our public relations work. As a result, despite Wrike's higher cost, we decided to stick with this tool because it was more efficient for tracking work.

Likelihood to Recommend

In public relations, our Wrike statuses go from In Exploration, In Development, Awaiting Client or Manager Feedback, Pitching, Lead, Interviews to Monitoring for Result. These workflow statuses are unique to public relations and are extremely helpful for tracking our progress with a pitch or media lead. Our other teams use statuses like Low Priority, Medium Priority, and High Priority, but what I outlined is very helpful in public relations and makes everything clear.
