We address team capacity concerns to ensure that team members have enough duties to keep them busy but not overburdened. Another advantage of Wrike is that it allows you to keep conversation focused on projects outside of an internal communication channel like Slack. Everything that the Project Manager want is visible and accessible to him. Because the data and dashboards are available for management to access and evaluate, there are seldom "didn't see it coming" situations. Being able to view the task status of 30 different individuals and without having to email/chat/call since alerts can do it for you in a work from home environment.

What is your favorite aspect of this product?

I enjoy the option to set different tasks for my team to manage various sections of a linear process. I enjoy how it incorporates time management, project management, and team discussions into the assignment. How straightforward and easy it is to use and apply the application. Because the application makes viewing tasks and submitting them correctly incredibly simple, the Project Manager does not have to give unending user assistance. Push alerts to users with open tasks save time on follow-ups and allow users to complete work at their leisure.
