Seemed like a great tool, but it ended up being too complext
What do you like best about the product?
Wrike seemed to have all the features we needed and SAS model was great. We were able to customize it to meet our specific project needs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Wrike's flexibility was too easy to get ourselves into trouble. A few well intended people made it way to complex and difficult to manage all our work. Onboarding was also very lacking in the beginning.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are using Wrike to manage all of IT's work.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Use Atlassian's Jira instead

Wrike for project management
What do you like best about the product?
Wrike is great for planning out projects and creating all of the associated tasks and milestones. It's also great with the dependencies between the tasks so I can see critical paths. The descriptions in the tasks make it easy to keep everything in one place - Wrike is my go-to.
What do you dislike about the product?
There should be a way for the system to automatically prioritize your pipeline/folders. Right now if my #2 project changes priorities I have to go in and renumber all of the projects below it.
There also isn't a way to plan a task for the middle of a day. If I know a team member won't execute and complete a task until the afternoon, I can't drag the task to the afternoon. I have to make it all day or have a dependent task occur in the morning of that same day (which isn't always the case with my projects).

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I work in project management in operations. Wrike helps me backlog projects and keep a current pipeline to make sure I can keep track of all the projects we're currently running, and projects we want to tackle in the future.
just getting started but love it so far
What do you like best about the product?
easy to use, organized, straight forward layout
What do you dislike about the product?
i feel it's too expensive monthly. It's me and my assistant, and then a client on each project/
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
interior design projects - easy to organize to do lists and keep all things in one place
Amazing, robust project management software
What do you like best about the product?
I am truly impressed with Wrike's design and intentionality. They have anticipated many of our needs, such as the ability to create a project template and repeat this per project, to be able to set the start date or end date depending, to be able to view the project in a Gantt chart or via list, to be able to block off vacation dates, to be able to send @notifications to team members in or out of the project, to have an automatic daily task list as well as a modifiable dashboard of filtered views any way you want them, to be able to attach items via Google Drive or directly or other means, and so much more. I use it daily and feel it has strengthened communications with my manager and team, especially as we often telecommute. Its time tracker is certainly superior to Basecamp, which we used before and also liked greatly. Wrike also has a mobile app which is convenient.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dislike the recurring task feature, which doesn't always work correctly. I also dislike that when you adjust the date of a parent task, the child tasks' dates are not affected, and vice versa. It makes it confusing if you forget to update the dates of the child tasks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We've solved the business problems of communicating as some of us telecommuting, finding an efficient way to share documents related to the project via Google Drive or directly, how to schedule projects more effectively, how to provide more accurate updates on how much of project progress is complete, and how to help our less experienced project managers organize their projects digitally in a way we all can see.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
It's worth the cost! Ensure you bring in a representative to coach you on how to operate the software effectively together as a team. It's smart of them to encourage an implementation team. It's also useful to set up a Project of Q&A Items and have people post their questions and reply to each other, and in this way you share what knowledge you've collected as a team.
One of the better yeam, task and collaboration sites.

Simple and straightforward, met our needs for task allocation and management.

Limited in terms of customization without expensive consulting from Wrike.

Trying yo manage team based tasks.
Implemented for testing during agile marketing process.
What do you like best about the product?
Powerful configuration options, multiple ways to use features.
What do you dislike about the product?
Hierarchical arrangement gets confusing - updates to sub-tasks don't roll up in the way you'd expect or need. Naming conventions must be adhered to or sub-tasks and tasks appear to be repeated.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Need for epic stories that Trello doesn't support.
Wrike Rocks

Transparent and effective

What do you dislike about the product?
Difficult to manage notification ails for new users.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Documentation of conversation dates and timelines leads to clear communication.
Very flexible project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
Wrike is very customizable and flexible, so you can set up workflows the way you want. They have very useful schedule and workload views so you can easily see what everyone on the team is working on and how long it is expected to take. I also really like that you can tie dependent tasks together and see that reflected visually on the schedules.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have tried to use Wrike as an agile sprint project management tool. It seems that Wrike is not built specifically for that function though. Since it's very flexible we are able to work around most roadblocks, however some of our set up seems overly complicated because of those workarounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Other project management tools did not give us a clear schedule of who was working on what, and when. Wrike met this need very well.
Robust Task Management - Mediocre Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Clean interface, easy admin functionality, custom dashboard
What do you dislike about the product?
Cannot treat as true "project management", but more like "task management"
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Accountability. It's a nice, central, place for project notes and attachments.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
great for task management, not project management where you require dependencies and lead/lag times.
