Wrike Reviews: 4.2/5 — Solid Choice

Great way to connect all members of our team while also being able to bring in outside aspects.

Can be complicated to get everything set up. Setting up dependencies is also challenging when you want multiple things due on one day.

Keeping everyone on task, being able to track projects. Since getting Wrike we have had two team members move to a difference city so this has been crucial.

I like the ability to create projects and assign team members and due dates. we were able to add all our clients and ongoing assignments along with company folders

Some additional tools did not come with the plans we purchased, and we were not aware until after we signed our agreement. The Onboarding process was a little too involved- we had to learn some things on our own due to our transition time frame- it would have been helpful if we could have customized it to our needs instead of following their process.

Wrike allows us to create projects for all agreements and track the tasks, along with reporting options. They offer great support.

I like that everything that is shared stays in one "ticket." If you need to find a link to something, sometimes it's just easier to find it in Wrike instead of digging through your Slack or Email. The app makes it very easy to quickly reply to messages, which keeps things efficient.

I am not always able to find my tickets as quickly as I'd like. I go to the "home" area and click on the "Created by Me" link on the right. It feels like the process could be handled in one click. I'd love a calendar view based off of due dates. That might exist, but I haven't been able to find that type of feature.

Our business uses Wrike to submit projects to other teams. They are able to set up a "checklist" that is required for submission, so you're confident you're sharing all of the information that is needed. Benefit of having all details in one place is great.

I like how Wrike allows you to create custom columns to track the data that is important to your team. The reporting feature also makes it very easy to send that data to the interested parties in your organization.

I would love the notification features to be more robust throughout Wrike. Currently, task owners need to be @tagged directly to get instant notification of a conversation that is taking place. It would be great to have task owners automatically alerted to conversations on their tasks.

I use Wrike to track my team's time and human effort on projects. It has been beneficial to track project timing, and scope creep using the reporting feature in Wrike.

Keeping track of open tasks, allowing me visibility to see what is needed to do amongst my team

Difficult to view macro level data, segregated folders for departments makes it difficult to track projects across multiple areas

Project tracking, one place to communicate for open tasks

I like being able to track my tasks and what I assign to others all in one place.

The subtasks and the dependency tasks are not very user friendly. Everyone in our business gets confused trying to set them up universally.

Streamlining the task process has been wonderful. Being able to track what I've assigned helps a lot. This is the biggest benefit, although it does seem to be able to be manipulated more than I would like.

Customizable, functionality, great for organization

Occasional technical issues, mostly delays and slowness, that do get resolved within a reasonable about of time.

Managing a large number of projects through multiple dashboards. Tracking time and productivity. Logging requests for support.

For tech professionals, it is a great tool that is easy to use and can be easily modified for the use case. It tends to be more flexible than other planning tools and allows for easier documentation.

The only main issue that I have is how it is somewhat difficult to find closed tickets and completed work.

It is a great system for receiving work requests and talking with end users.

UI design, it is wasy to use and navigate through different features

It can lot more interactive anf integrated to other applications

We are solving issues such have streamlining our project timelines and collaborations with crossfunctional teams

Great way to stay on top of where a project is up to the minute.

Uptake and full understanding of how it works can take a bit.

Process flow management and getting the right parties engage at the right time. Use to differentiate levels of work between projects and task level.

I like the ability to share projects across different folders/teams.

Sometimes when you add a task to a project, it won't show up in particular views. It either has to be a sub-project or a folder to show up. Also, if you click on the main project, it doesn't show you all of the other tasks associated with it. You have to leave that view and go to a table vie to see it.

Wrike is helping us coordinate across teams and organizations. It has helped us streamline our request process for different groups.

The Google Drive integration is very helpful for syncing all the related files and images for tasks. I also like how the following dates adjust when one date is changed, as well as the review/approval process.

It can be a little difficult to find tasks that you're looking for when using the search function, since they don't always pop up.

We're using Wrike to manage our projects, share feedback, and track bandwidth.

The user interface and setup are extremely simple. Making it easy to use as well as providing the ability to customize data inputs to improve reporting. Blueprints also allow you to get off that ground with a new project quickly.

Collaboration between tasks is lacking. If I complete a task to upload a new webpage the next task isn't notified of where that webpage is. I either need to go back in and update the next task or the next person needs to go back and find my update.

We are keeping our projects organized and at the top of mind. This also allows managers to see how backed up one might be to adjust their workload in real time.

It is a good and easy tool to track tasks, get approvals and communicate.

For me, it is just another method of communication on top of the 6+ other formats that my company requires. It can be difficult to know or remember which communication method to be used and when Wrike should be updated if another is used.

It is nice to @ communicate with people in a chat format rather than getting a bunch of emails. It is easy to see what the next tasks are ad how you affect the following steps of a project.

Creation of project request forms from cross-functional teams.

Not as user-friendly interface as other applications.

We are establishing a process of submissions for request for marketing and creative requests.

the simplicity of adding or removing tasks;

Tasks cannot be resorted, so if you remember a new task, getting it added into the list of tasks in the correct order means you have to retype in tasks. (yes, there might be a way to do it, but it's not intuitive). Adding in a due date; when you get the reminder, that email does not serve well; i'd rather receive a simple list, rather than what feels like a marketing list with lots of larger text. ick.

tasks managed within a larger team

The ability to track the progress of a project quickly and easily.

Deciding when to email someone or tag them in wirke.

Project collaboration

I do like the fact that that there are so many customization options in the way things are set up for your specfic company/org.

I dislike that the user interface seems so complex. I am someone who is pretty tech savy and I miss the ease of use of Basecamp. (Yes, I know that the Wrike capablities are far beyond) It visually presents as something very backend and not super visually pleasing. I dislike how hard it is to find things that may have not been filed correctly/at all. The search feature performance is not my favorite. I dislike that I can't tell if certain things are actual Wrike flaws or just the way my company utilizes wrike. For example, I don't know much about outlook/wrike plug in. I don't know if there is a reason my company doesn't encourage/require the use of that plug in.

Wrike helps us to put information all in one place and assign tasks to other team members/departments accordingly. I have realized the benefit of being able to look at things from the year prior when planning things for this year. Definitely love the benefit that I'd rather look in Wrike than in one of our many messy network drives.

Love the customization of Dashboards to each person's or team's workflow needs and the ability to use request forms for so many purposes.

Wrike can be a bit overwhelming and is difficult for many new hires to digest.

We are eliminating tons of back and forth emails about a project or new hire!

I like Wrike because I can manage my own tasks while viewing what my teammates are working on.

It could be slightly more user-friendly, but once you understand the platform, it is great.

I have streamlined requests and created dynamic calendars for development projects.

The ease of collaboration, customization, etc.

There's not much I dislike about it, but it was hard to get used to at first. I also always forget to time track.

Organization at work, the ease of sharing things with a whole team, etc.

Wrike is great to track projects that have multiple stakeholders and multiple levels of tasks that need to be completed. It is very easy to use and one of my favorite functions is the notification function.

Customization and the UI/UX are very limited. Project Management might run into situations where I need to use different ways of managing it inside Wrike and I feel like most of the extra functions that I am looking for are not supported.

Project Management for all Web Sites for the company. I believe Wrike brings a lot to the table in terms of keeping everyone up to date and telling everyone what they need to do prior to the deadline.

The project management features are great and we're able to separate out our work amongst different teams.

Sometimes it can seem a bit too over engineered and makes it more complicated than it needs to be.

We're solving project management and now we have better insight into the different tasks that are being asked of our team and we can report out on it at the end of a quarter/year.

The ability to list task items, as well as keep track of project hours and time lines.

It is not the most user-friendly program. It takes a while to get used to how it all works together.

I am able to keep track of my hours on projects, down to the individual task, which helps get an accurate read for the amount of time spent on projects/tasks.

La diversidad de vistas, las integraciones

Es un poco confuso en su navegación el costo es bastante caro ya que es por plug-in

La organización de los Proyectos

I have used Asana, Monday and Wrike. Out of the three, I feel Wrike can be improved to a much better level. What I like best about Wrike is that I get emails about new comments on the tasks I'm assigned, something I didn't see with the other tools. Wrike gives you the ability to time-track your projects, another feature not available on other tools.

What I personally disliked about Wrike is the inability to see what level you are assigned. Am I an admin or am I just a regular user? Can I change much of a project being a regular user? Need a little more clarity on that front.

Wrike really helps with project management and project collaboration. Have been using the tool for more than 6 months and while I feel it is good, there are better tools out there.

The tutorials are top-notch; the best I've seen! I recommend them to any new Wrike member as a great way to learn the tool. This is especially true for those who do not have a project management background. It really humanizes the product.

Some tools are not as intuitive as could be. Some features are too rigid and I would like to have more flexibility to customize views. For the nature of our project, it would be helpful to be able to design our own unique critical path and ways to capture items in ways other than tasks that wouldn't not impact the completion percentages.

Keeping our project on time and our people on task.

Wrike can store a vast amount of data and still run quickly. I like the proofing feature a lot.

It has become more and more frustrating to use over time. Things that used to be easy to find have been hidden behind several layers of menus and interface clutter.

Tracking projects and viewing their history. When a recurring job comes up it's easy to see what was done before.

It is easy to collaborate with other people and teams, share for visibility, and assign out tasks. The templates, blueprints, and forms functions are very helpful for our team.

The UX is sometimes a bit clunky. It is difficult to get to the main project page and the automation feature is clunky at best. Sometimes in forms we want to add custom fields, but they aren't available and it takes a while to figure out why. Things will break/change and it is often difficult to figure out why.

Collaboration/visibility cross-functionally, easily able to assign and share tasks across teams, request forms, project management. We have been able to share a marketing calendar easily across teams, manage email schedules, and drive accountability on projects.

Dashboards and ease of creating a new task are what I like best about Wrike

What I like the least about Wrike is that it is so powerful and has so many capabilities that a task could be easily lost, or it may be hard to adopt in a large organization with many departments. Due to this, I would recommend that the organization that uses Wrike has a dedicated owner/admin that governs the system, new fields, forms and blueprints. Also, it would be helpful to be able to edit in bulk on tasks like an excel spreadsheet (cut/paste).

We use Wrike for task management and internal 'ticket' requests. Some also have adopted action plans and onboarding task items. The tool is very flexible and can be used for various business needs that include tasks with owners and timelines.
