Overall Satisfaction with Wrike

Our team uses Wrike to manage incoming creative requests, scheduling project tasks, and collaborative proofing across multiple teams across the organization. Wrike provided a scalable solution to replace an older, home-grown system that couldn't be adapted to the company's growth and our team's expanding services.

Pros

  • Cloud service performs well with little to no down time
  • Nearly endless customization options allow teams to work in ways that suit their particular needs
  • Account services provide prompt assistance when needed

Cons

  • More robust and detailed automation options would be helpful
  • Add a time tracking reminder if the clock runs over a specified amount of time
  • The ability to generate custom project ID/job numbers
  • the ability to hide subtasks from those not assigned. There are many times when a stakeholder needs visibility to the overall project, but not individual subtasks
  • the ability to print project details and include custom field information
  • the ability to add partial day PTO to user work schedules
  • more detailed/robust branching when building request forms
  • the ability to filter message in your inbox by user
  • it would be helpful if the notification pop ups linked directly to the message/comment vs needing to hunt for it under "stream"
  • the ability to provide collaborators with a bit more permissions, particularly when it comes to adding/assigning/tagging other users as assignees in request forms
  • the ability to add users as followers in a request form
  • the ability to apply a blueprint to an existing project
  • increased productivity due to no longer working on a server-based application
  • improved project visibility and collaboration
  • a more streamlined proof/approval process with increased visibility throughout multiple departments
We have not used AI features
Automation possibilities can be more detailed or robust. Examples given in one of my previous answers.
After researching and experimenting with several other products, Wrike was chosen for it's customization capabilities, and because it was a product inherited due to a company merger.

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?

Yes

Would you buy Wrike again?

Yes

Wrike can be tailored to almost any workflow, but there are a few features that could be improved. Our team would really benefit from the ability to hide subtasks from anyone that isn't assigned. With our team's detailed workback schedules built into blueprints, it can be very confusing and overwhelming for our requesters when they see all of the activity that they don't need visibility into.
