Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

I am currently about 4 years into the Wrike experience and thus far it's been a very positive one. Our organization uses the platform as both a Marketing Team PM system as well as an intradepartmental communication tool (allowing other departments to submit requests to the team and then follow along the process towards completion. Considering that our company is geographically scattered, having a solid tool for these basic tasks is a necessity.

Pros

  • Wrike does a good job of allowing groups to segment based on the criteria that they choose
  • Wrike does a great job of alerting people to changes/updates of the projects and tasks that they are following
  • Wrike allows for simple an intuitive communication between the people who are participating in a specific project or task

Cons

  • While Wrike is powerful, it also has so many features that it can take a little while to fully understand what options are available to you
  • There is a learning curve to Wrike if you decide to go past the basic functionality
  • The biggest indicator of success when using Wrike - for us at least- is shown in the difference between how projects/tasks that are in Wrike are handled, versus how projects that DON'T go into Wrike are.
We have only used the basic AI and automation features so I am probably not the best one to speak about them.
While the tool is very full featured and powerful, it can take a bit of time to fully understand what different pieces of it do and how you are supposed to use it. They offer training options, but - to me- the best option is to make it easy to figure out on the fly - even if that means pulling back on how many options are available.
I feel like Wrike is better for larger groups and for more diverse teams, but Trello is more user-friendly.

Do you think Wrike delivers good value for the price?

If you are a team of more than a few people - especially a team who works alongside other teams who have different deliverables and goals, Wrike is a great option to keep things organized and top of mind.
