The customer service provided by Workamajig is the best I've experienced with project management and accounting software companies.
The current beta transition is going slowly and we encounter issues with transitioning along with it.
Workamajig solves the problem of project management in complicated projects wonderfully. I've never experienced a better, streamlined software in that regard.
The HTML5 engine is less prone to browser hangups than Flash. The new UI is fast and fairly intuitive, with the feel of a current smartphone OS. For day-to-day work, there are many tasks that are easy to accomplish without having to drill deep into a project.
Looking for more customer-configured options on some of the dashboards and report screens (they may still be in the works, as it's still early in the development). I wish the project-level contents were served up with more top-level linking (making Conversations, Spec Sheets, and other screens more quickly accessible in the project left-nav.)
Easy communication and collaboration across project teams and channels. Capturing information that allows us to pull cross-channel project and schedule data into a single report or search.
I like the interface. Some of the new features are helpful.
Some of the classic features are missing.
Trafficking, Time management
The new interface is much more agile than the flash version. The ability to drill down into levels of information within a project with speed and ease is a real time-saver. Drag and drop within Scheduling is a game-changer for me. Frankly, we had moved away from WMJ as a traffic management tool as not only was it time-consuming to reassign tasks, but we needed a comprehensive overall view that was easy for everyone to digest- looks like our problem is solved! Looking forward to rolling out Deliverables with our clients- again, the efficiency of keeping all information in one space is critical in an industry where account managers travel and/or are often off-site.
As Operations Director, my role encompasses both the Project Management AND Resource Allocation roles in Platinum. I'm finding it cumbersome to need to toggle between the two.
We've had success with using the CRM functionality to more accurately forecast pipeline. I can see the Twitter feed in the contact view being a great tool for us in fostering and maintaining contact relationships. In addition, the improved features of Deliverables will be a great asset to our team in tracking project history. Looking forward to rolling out the Conversation element to our team- having everything in one spot has been our goal, and this will help!
The customization to fit your company needs is outstanding.
There is a steep learning curve. Many things to learn. Especially the customizations.
Solve time and cost management for projects and clients.
Workamajig is a project, resources and financial management platform that encompasses everything you need. The first step that is the most important step is to have help getting your system set up, have an intensive in depth training to understand who the system works. It's also important to keep going to the monthly webinars, watching the youthe channel to keep learning. The system is always evolving to meet the needs and requests of the users
The system has so many options, if your company does not give you the right permissions you never know what you don't know This goes back to ensuring you have the right person helping you set up the system otherwise you are asking for the keys to the castle and the leadership team also doesn't know what they don't know
The team at Workamajig has helped us with all of our questions and have helped us adapt the system to do what we need to do.
I appreciate how broad it is in the sense that you can customize it based off of company needs.
There are some smaller features that I would love to be included (i.e. requiring receipts for expense reports). Maybe even descriptions statements for setting.
Our company consists of 4 separate companies. Being able to maintain finance and project workflow through one platform helps immensely!
We can create workflow templates and upload these template into a new campaign/project. This drastic reduces the amount of work in creating project plans and estimates.
The view for employees is not that userfriendly and it can take some training for team members to properly learn to view assignments, clock time towards assignments and mark tasks as complete/
Currently, WMJ is being used primarily to create new project plans, estimates, scheduling, and resource planning. We benefit from using one program for these purposes and it really helps streamline our day-to-day operations.
WMJ has a lot of features that are really helpful for keeping projects on track and analyzing them.
It can be complicated, lots of features go unused because they're not all that intuitive. As a bookkeeper, the financial side of WMJ can use a little work.
WMJ support is always really helpful and will respond in a timely manner when some oddball issue comes up and I can't find the solution on the support website
Workamajig allows you to find and search for projects in several ways and is very easy to navigate.
Workamajig is limited in how much you can customize the display options for each section.
Workamajig has been very easy to learn and incorporate into our business model. We find the flexibility of the type of projects you can track a great help as our needs change.
