Wrike

What differentiates Wrike from other similar products?

Wrike has a more traditional project management approach, with features like Gantt charts and customizable workflows. This makes it better suited for teams that need a more structured way to plan and execute their projects. Wrike also has a wider range of features, including task and resource management, time tracking, and integrations with other tools.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

The interface is great, being able to see a project both as kanban, as a table, as a list, as a Gantt, and broken down by resources is fantastic. The simplicity with which the platform allows you to set up projects, dashboards, and reports.

What do you dislike most about this product?

Native Integrations are few, and the associated software to activate many of them is expensive and very difficult.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

Wrike is well suited for enterprise use, and less suited for startup/ small businesses. It is a powerful project management tool to stay on task, communicate, share files, review progress, and record the work you and your department are contributing to the organization. As a VP or an executive, Wrike will give you visibility around project execution and organizational progress.

What recommendations would you give to someone considering this product?

I would absolutely recommend Wrike for project management -- having come from organizations relying on Excel and PowerPoint to try and track these kinds of things. What's really nice about Wrike is that you can have a standard playbook or set of tasks associated with a project, then it is easily applied across multiple instances -- in our case, customer implementation projects. I really like how it has timing built right into the product so that you know if something is due or late.

Best project management tool for the cost. Integration with slack is a big plus.
