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I haven't used the product for over a year, so this could be out of date but entering information was somewhat cumbersome.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."
"Dashboard customization"
"Wrike has allowed us to collaborate with ease and to be able to communicate expectations quickly not only internally but also to external contributors."
"In the dashboard, you have a perfect overview to all assigned, to do, and overdue tasks and in activity stream, you get news about the work that is done in your team."
"Great way for our employees to send in project requests/ideas and then for us to be able to prioritize and schedule them."
"Keeping everything centralized"
"Wrike is the best project management tool I have used so far."
"It's a very easy-to-use and flexible tool. We can easily write and create queues for different themes. It's very user-friendly."
"The interface is very user-friendly, and now that they have fixed the way to add a new folder, it is even more user-friendly."
 

Cons

"Entering information was somewhat cumbersome."
"As our number of projects grow I find that Wrike crashes more often."
"On one side, it's very easy to create a task with text, but on the other side, it's not very well-formatted. Therefore, it's difficult to track specific data written in a task. We are making templates, but it's not enough to use a template to know the exact status of different tasks. One thing that we are looking for in Wrike is a better workflow. Because we can only move the status of tasks, we can't really manage workflow and send a task to a specific person. This is what is really missing in Wrike as compared to other tools. We are looking to replace Wrike because we need support for workflow. Another issue with Wrike is that they bring a lot of versions of the tool, which it's not so easy. They bring new versions very frequently, and these versions look similar. For example, we are using robots to read the tasks in the tools, which is problematic with Wrike because it is changing very frequently."
"Wrike currently has no budgeting capabilities."
"The flexibility, which is a strength, also requires you to think through how to structure Wrike to best serve your needs."
"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."
"One thing that we are looking for in Wrike is a better workflow. Because we can only move the status of tasks, we can't really manage workflow and send a task to a specific person."
"You can't get custom notifications."
"There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful.
