Wrike Erfahrungen

Vorteile

Wir benutzen Wrike seit Jahren und wir können es anderen jederzeit wärmstens empfehlen. Der Schlüssel zum Finden eines guten PM-Systems liegt darin, eines zu finden, das so funktioniert, wie Sie arbeiten, und Wrike bietet so viele Möglichkeiten

Nachteile

Nachteile können wir so gar nicht finden ist doch toll oder

Vorteile

Im Team zu sehen wer was wann macht ist wichtig. Die Berichterstellung ist einfach und klasse

Nachteile

Etwas schwer beim ersten Mal. Aber danach habe ich alles verstanden

Vorteile

Übersichtliches Dashboard zur Aufgabenverfolgung

Nachteile

Für jede Kleinigkeit müssen einzeln Rechte vergeben werden sodass neue Teammitglieder einführen ewig dauert und der Prozess andauernd irgendwo herrscht.

Vorteile

Mein Team nutzt es hauptsächlich, um sich einen Überblick über offene Tickets zu verschaffen und direkt zu sehen welche Themen überfällig sind. Beides funktioniert für uns wunderbar.

Nachteile

Die Navigation ist nicht bedienerfreundlich und kostet uns unnötig Zeit.

Vorteile

Team BIM channel for discussion and advocacy.Agility on online projects, tasks and team management.Reliable on time management and tracking.Online time approvals.

Nachteile

Nothing to like least, it is on top since our best.

Vorteile

I like the different views: Gantt, table, list, calendar, dashboard, etc. This is my favorite thing about Wrike because not everyone thinks the same way. And bi-locating. And custom fields - it's really elevated my reporting. And blueprints - TIME SAVER.

Nachteile

Limitations around sorting - in marketing we NEED to sort by due date, not start date, because our work pivots constantly. Limitations on forms - I really wish I could make a form with logic. Limitations with automation - it's such a cool feature that you can automate pretty much everything but I haven't had great success when rolling out to the team.

Vorteile

Tasks, projects, automation, and requests work well in Wrike. There are many powerful features and ways to customize the environment for particular needs.

Nachteile

Many of the features are hard to located in different parts of the UI. The many customization options and numerous features can make for a confusing environment.

Vorteile

The ease-of use, agile nature of the tool makes this project 10 times better than the rigid project management tool we were using before. The software is not overly complex or complicated to navigate/learn, which has made the transition from our old tool to Wrike an absolute breeze!

Nachteile

The local/downloadable application responsiveness can be rather sluggish at times and slow. For this reason, some time can be lost waiting for the server to catch up with the local application.

Warum Wrike gewählt wurde

Certain members of our team went from retained employees of our customer to free agents, so we needed to adopt our own project management tool, since we no longer had access permissions for the proprietary, internal tool we were using.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Wrike

Wrike had a very similar platform/interface and similar functionality as the internal tool we were using beforehand. This made for a very smooth transition from one tool to another regarding training and usage.

Vorteile

Wrike is an amazing tool for task management. It provides a great user interface and many useful features. It is easy to use and has a great customer support team. It is also very customizable and can be used to manage multiple projects and tasks at once.

Nachteile

The biggest downside to Wrike is the cost. It can be expensive for some users, especially for small businesses. There are also some features that are missing, such as a built-in timer, so users have to use third-party apps to track time.

Vorteile

The customizable workflows, item types, and automations that have been developed in the last few years have taken Wrike from being another project management platform to being a robust set of tools that can have great impact on streamlining projects. Wrike provides a great framework for project management, while being flexible enough to make the platform match your own processes.

Nachteile

Reporting could be more robust. Custom item types needs further development.

The department was barely using Smartsheets, and not well. Smartsheets was not going to be scalable enough to handle the amount of projects that were coming in.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Wrike

Wrike had the functionality and flexibility we needed to build a custom platform that matched our unique processes and functions.

Vorteile

Wrike is an incredibly comprehensive task management tool. It is easy to use and provides many features that allow you to easily manage projects, tasks, and teams. The user interface is intuitive and the integration with other tools makes it even more powerful.

Nachteile

The only downside to Wrike is the cost, which can be quite expensive for small teams. Additionally, the learning curve can be steep for those who are not familiar with project management tools. It can be difficult to get started with Wrike.

Vorteile

I like the collaboration features, that I can AT mention my colleagues to get quick feedback or assign them tasks when we work on projects together as a team. The "My To Do" and "Calendar" views are helpful so I can see what I have coming up next without being overwhelmed by a mountain of projects and tasks that aren't due to begin just yet.

Nachteile

Because it is so customizable, it was a work in progress getting started and figuring out just what the software could do best. It is still a work in progress learning all of the features available and integrating them into our business.

Gründe für den Wechsel zu Wrike

Better balance of user interface and features

Vorteile

Wrike enhances collaboration among my project team members by providing a higher level of ease and efficiency. Its dynamic project-based live stream allows every team member to remain informed of critical project developments in real-time. Additionally, the platform streamlines team discussions by enabling direct communication on specific tasks at the project level, resulting in a centralized location for all project-related activities.

Nachteile

One downside is the incomplete submission form capabilities and the lack of synchronization with the resulting task or project created. In contrast to other platforms, the interface is not as visually appealing, and the layout can be more challenging to navigate. However, the tool's robust capabilities more than compensate for these shortcomings.

Vorteile

The tool itself is great. We used many project management tools before including the big names like JIRA, but ended up with wrike and using it now for around 4 years already.Around 2 years ago the features / billing got more standardized which allows us to use some features we really wanted, but were too expensive before (because they were coupled with other ones with no use for us). Now the tool is very useful including proper timetracking, workflow management and useful asset commenting inside tasks.

Nachteile

Account manager / success manager change very often. While this is pretty common in SaaS environment, it is very annoying, especially if you make arrangements with you current manager and then all of sudden there is a new one and everything you discussed before is out of the window.

Vorteile

We were looking for a full project management suite our PM was focused on a robust tool that met all of the PM standards and requirements. As we reviewed various software suites we found that although many met their needs, they were very difficult to use and understand for non-project oriented staff; this was critical for us many staff are required to interact with the Projects Division as part of their stakeholder and SME roles. We were very happy to see Wrike had a friendly and very usable interface that non-PM focused users could interact with easily.

Nachteile

As an admin level user for myself it is very easy to get 'lost' within Wrike, as I have access to all projects, tasks and PM features. Although note that this isn't a fault of the software but rather how we configured our environment and user access.

Some of these tools did not have time management features, while others were very PM-centric and difficult for end-users to use as a collaboration tool with the Projects team.

Vorteile

Wrike has greatly increased our efficiency across our teams. Our department has transitioned from a fully in-office team to a fully remote team to a hybrid working environment in just two short years, and thanks to Wrike, our project schedules remained on track no matter in what environment we work. The video onboarding tools built within Wrike helped each team member get started at their own pace, and the onboarding videos themselves are quite engaging and creative. Once established, our team has effectively created a high-functioning workspace in which to manage digital and print production, campaign management, and other organization. Some of our favorite features include the following. - A Gantt chart can be created so that once a task is completed, the assignee of the next task is instantly notified that they can start working on their assigned task. The Gantt chart also automatically adjusts deadlines across all items when a campaign deployment date is updated, saving us time from having to manually update dates for each task within a project. - Calendars provide us with a way to share our email campaign deployment dates company-wide and to assess workload distribution across teams. - Dashboards can be built for personal use or for team use, and customizable widgets mean that the possibilities are endless for dashboard items to display. - Forms can be programmed to use Blueprints to create and map projects/tasks automatically once submitted.

Nachteile

We are a small team without a dedicated project manager, and team members are required to manage their own projects. The onboarding process was lengthy, as the tool required our team to think differently about mapping project schedules. For example, if a task is created from a blueprint and the team member doesn't individualize the name of the task, Wrike may assume that the task is the same as others with the same name. Then, that one particular task will live in multiple projects. So, when a team member marks that one task as completed, Wrike will mark it as completed in all projects. This is wonderful if intentional, but it was confusing at first to some who were accustomed to linear project management tools.There are many different ways to set up projects on Wrike, which is a benefit as much as it could potentially be cumbersome. To ensure that our team members had an understanding of where to find things on Wrike and of the expectations for how we wanted to use this project management tool, we established a staff subcommittee to create a quick-reference guide that detailed the organizational structures, processes, or settings that we agreed to as a team. It worked really well for us to have a central document outlining the folder structures and notification settings for our team in addition to the onboarding tools that Wrike provided.

Vorteile

It's flexible and there are multiple ways to look at projects/task depending on how users like to see things. For example as a list, Gantt chart, table or Boards which is really handy as we have designers and programmers who work very differently.

The decision to go with Wrike was also skewed by the ability to have external collaborators join the team.

The ability to add custom fields makes it easy to add information required.

Different views enable tasks to be seen by project, person, folder etc.

Being able to track time on each task is also really useful and easy for everyone.

New features are being rolled out frequently and Wrike is fast catching up on the areas I thought were lacking initially.

Nachteile

The flexibility and customisation makes it a bit confusing to start with, and I also found that the initial set up we had was not optimal. This was the first time we used a Project Management system to this extent, so this may be more of a user error issue.

The "CRM" workaround I don't think is worth the trouble.

The pricing model is the one that I think lets Wrike down the most. I understand the reason for a minimum of 5 seats, but every increment after this is in 5 seats as well. For a small business, this is a real issue in my view. This is also the case for additional features, many of which are only used by Admin, but are invoiced for each seat.

Wrike has been an indispensable tool for us for a wide range of purposes over the course of several years. As an example of Wrike's usefulness, we were able to move our Change Request process from paper-based Excel spreadsheets to automated, digitally-driven Wrike task lists, complete with reporting. A centralized location was created so everyone could see what updates were open and past due.

Nachteile

Some sorts of views might be awkward to alter in some situations. Dates and times may be a pain to establish and modify. Not quick enough for everyday usage across all projects and takes time to manage the to-do list.

Vorteile

I appreciate that Wrike provides us with features and tools to make our jobs easier. I also appreciate how well the graphical interface works, and how you can utilize it to improve your output. I had a great time, and I like the variety of tools and functions available.

Nachteile

Even if Wrike lacks the features described so far, its usage and application adds value and guarantees the activities without any problems. I would want it to have these features.

Vorteile

I very much enjoyed the level of customization that is available with Wrike. It is not a cookie cutter service or fixed platform.
I can create folders with a priority level for each set of tasks or projects. Our schedule can be transformed into a visual time line and Wrike helps us identify possible issues or conflicts before they happen.
We can work together and communicate in real time.
The customer service is exceptional and help is available to us at all times.
Wrike has exceeded our expectations for quality and features.

Nachteile

Wrike is not easy to learn and it is very expensive. The immense volume of options and features are overwhelming and confusing.

Vorteile

What I like most about Wrike is how it has transformed our workflow from chaos to collaboration. With Wrike, accountability is at the forefront of every project. We can assign tasks to team members, set deadlines, and track progress in real-time, which ensures everyone is accountable for their responsibilities. Furthermore, the reminders feature ensures that deadlines are met, and nothing falls through the cracks. I also appreciate how Wrike tracks the workflow and progress of each task, allowing us to easily see what has been completed, what is currently being worked on, and what tasks are still outstanding. And with everything accessible in one click, Wrike has made it incredibly easy for our team to work together and stay on top of our education and research projects.

Nachteile

As with any software, there may be features that some users may feel are missing from Wrike. However, it's worth noting that Wrike is an extensive project management tool that covers many aspects of project management, from task management and time tracking to collaboration and reporting. Wrike also offers integrations with other software tools, such as Google Drive and Microsoft Office, which can help fill any gaps in functionality that some users may experience.That being said, some users may feel that certain features are missing or could be improved upon. For example, some users may prefer more advanced reporting features, or more customization options for task views. Additionally, while Wrike does offer a mobile app, some users may feel that the mobile experience could be improved.Overall, however, Wrike is a robust project management tool that offers a wide range of features, and most users find that it meets their project management needs well. If you have specific feature requests, it's always a good idea to reach out to the Wrike team and provide feedback. Wrike is continually evolving and improving, and user feedback is an important part of that process.

Vorteile

There are many functions that Wrike has, but above them is the excellent organization that it has, allowing each aspect of the program to be in the right place. Its search function is very complete, allowing a large number of entries. These two features make it almost impossible not to get what you're looking for within Wrike. It has excellent integration with Apple operating systems, both with Mac and iPhone, which allows us to be connected at all times. Wrike has a very user-friendly and intuitive interface so even long working hours are done easily and without causing so much stress on staff. Of course, their workflows are incredible and allow a total customization of them without having to be experts in the handling of this type of software.

Nachteile

Although it is a very complete software, there are things that should be improved, such as adding a quick edit option so that you do not have to open a task to edit it. The linking of tasks is not your best option, it tends to leave some doubts and although with time the user gets used to it, it must take a long time to adapt. It also needs to polish its integration with Gmail a bit since it tends to be very slow.

Vorteile

It's adaptable and there are numerous approaches to see projects/assignments relying upon how clients like to see things. For instance, as a rundown, Gantt graph, table or Boards is truly helpful as we have creators and developers who work in an unexpected way. The choice to go with Wrike was additionally slanted by the capacity to have outside partners join the group. The capacity to add custom fields makes it simple to add the data required. Various perspectives empower assignments to be seen by project, individual, envelope, and so forth Having the option to follow time on each undertaking is additionally truly valuable and simple for everybody. New highlights are being turned out often and Wrike is quickly getting up to speed with the zones I thought were missing at first. gadget for the understudies and specialists.

Nachteile

The adaptability and customization make it somewhat befuddling, to begin with, and I likewise found that the underlying arrangement we had was not ideal. This was the first occasion when we utilized a Project Management framework to this degree, so this might be all the more a client mistake issue. The "CRM" workaround I don't believe merits the difficulty. The estimating model is the one that I think allows Wrike to down the most. I comprehend the purpose behind at least 5 seats, however, every addition after this is in 5 seats also. For a private venture, this is the main problem in my view. This is likewise the situation for extra highlights, a considerable lot of which are just utilized by Admin yet are invoiced for each seat.

Vorteile

Appreciate the flexibility and customization options that Wrike offers, allowing teams to tailor the tool to fit their specific needs and workflows. The platform's collaboration capabilities and real-time communication features also receive positive feedback, making it easier for team members to work together and share information.Additionally, Wrike's automation features are often praised, as they help teams save time and stay organized. The platform's user-friendly interface and easy-to-use task management system are also frequently mentioned as major benefits of using Wrike.
