Featured Reviews

it_user4230 - PeerSpot reviewer
VP of Product at a legal firm with 51-200 employees
Excellent portfolio management SaaS - strategy, savings, visibility
I haven't used the product for over a year, so this could be out of date but entering information was somewhat cumbersome. PPM systems in general are a challenge to keep populated with current information. The business priority of portfolio visibility must be communicated to users and reinforced that the project doesn't exist unless it's updated in the system.
Awadhesh Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Project Manager at NebuFlow
Easy to tag people and has a form system to collect information but cannot work in multiple channels simultaneously
There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful. Transferring data from one project to another is also difficult. It would be easier to work on parallel tasks across different projects. I've noticed others facing similar issues when I check the chat on their website. The tool should also improve coordination between external stakeholders and collaborators. It should also integrate financial features.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Very configurable software; almost any stage-gate process can be mapped and defined in the software giving excellent visibility to your project portfolio."
"I find Wrike's form system very valuable. I can share forms with my collaborators, and they can fill them out, providing me with the necessary information. Another useful feature is the communication platform, which makes it easy to tag someone and communicate efficiently. Additionally, the integration with Microsoft Office is great. I can create a card on Wrike directly from my MS Teams chat, which is convenient."
"Great way for our employees to send in project requests/ideas and then for us to be able to prioritize and schedule them."
"With the enhanced features of Enterprise such as custom fields and user groups, we are able to accomplish so much more and gain a better footing across the board."
"All I can elaborate on here is that we were able to close more projects than expected and save the company thousands of dollars."
"The product is intuitive. It is easy to learn and update. You can follow the project from the beginning till the end with the help of the solution. The tool helps to update the project in seconds."
"Wrike is a great collaboration tool."
"It's easy and it's simple: create your task, assign it to your teammates, tag them, ask them for task updates, all in a few simple steps."
"The ability to assign and reassign tasks to multiple stakeholders, time tracking, project completion."
 

Cons

"Entering information was somewhat cumbersome."
"When too many updates were done, we had to reload the web-app, the same did not happen on the iOS or Android App."
"There is a learning curve, so employees just starting out with Wrike take a few weeks to feel comfortable."
"Sometimes the interface can be messy."
"I would like to see a way of implementing a project scope as currently it is just folders, tags and tasks."
"You can't get custom notifications."
"More options in the "basic" paid version would be nice."
"It is great for smaller projects, but cannot replace Project or Smartsheet."
"I would love to have a more user friendly layout of the page in order to understand all those important features that will help me."
