Graham Sprague

Sr. Manager/Adobe Workfront Fusion Developer at Staples, Inc.

Centralized task management and simplified creative collaboration but interface is inconsistent

Adobe Workfront could improve its interface, which may benefit from an overhaul for better consistency between the web interface and the API. The current setup was not originally designed API-first, leading to some confusion and differences in available functions. Additionally, the low-code environment in Workfront Fusion is beneficial yet sometimes limiting, and it might be more powerful with enhancements.

CDO at Intellidio

Provides effective workflow management and catalog management

Around three to four engineers are needed for the solution's deployment and maintenance. The solution's e-commerce integration feature has impacted our marketing efforts and catalog management. CoreMedia is stable and strong in terms of editorial things. The solution has helped our organization manage translations for different languages. Overall, I rate the solution an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Instead of following everything on email, business users can track everything on Adobe Workfront when the other systems are integrated with it."

"I also like Workfront's integration. The solution integrates natively with other systems. It's easy to connect Workfront to any product that has a customer service database, such as a CRM or service ticket management solution."

"Adobe Workfront has been stable in my experience, and I would rate its stability as an eight out of ten."

"The solution is stable."

"The intake feature is the most valuable in Workfront."

"Workfront centralizes the tasks, the assignment of tasks, and documents required to do the work, streamlining communication and information availability, thus improving organization and reducing dependency on decentralized methods like email or servers."

"Feature-wise, I would say that its overall ability to be infinitely customizable is valuable...My experience with the support team has been amazing."

"I can say it is a powerful tool. We have everything in-house in that tool, like, creating reports, dashboards, creating various workflows, and everything we have inside one application."

More Adobe Workfront pros

"CoreMedia is good for workflow management and user reviews."

Cons

"I would say that the stability, honestly, has gone down since the Adobe acquisition, and the quality when they roll out their updates."

"We were having some difficulties creating different kinds of reports and dashboards."

"Sometimes, new users find it a bit difficult to handle Adobe Workfront."

"The interface can also be customized to fit and accept many tools for better performance and customer service improvement."

"I have used the product and instantiated it, almost seven years back. The process was fairly complex, however, I don't know if they have changed the same now. But this is something I think, if not addressed can be improved. Another area that needs a little attention, is the change of implementation lead. Back when we had Workfront instantiated, we often had our timeline delayed due to the change in the implementation lead. Now Workfront is under Adobe and, in case, this issue, isn't fixed it should be given due attention. Also, Workfront is a universal tool, which can pose a difficulty for small businesses and companies, who don't have the required time, effort, and knowledge to configure it periodically."

"Sometimes there are glitches when we are reviewing an interactive proof."

"Integration with Azure DevOps could be improved to facilitate better communication between the two systems."

"Workfront's reporting capabilities must be improved."

More Adobe Workfront cons

"It is difficult to scale the solution with respect to the costs and infrastructure."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of Workfront is completely license based."

"Adobe purchased Workfront in the past year, and they're putting work into developing the platform, so I expect the price to rise. It isn't cheap, but it's reasonable for the value it provides. It isn't Monday.com where you pick a license with a set price, and you've got a project manager."

"Speaking about pricing, I wouldn't recommend it to a smaller company because I do think the price point is higher than other solutions that can work."

"We are partners with Adobe, so we get the licensing at a cheaper rate."

"The pricing is a barrier to implementation. It is expensive compared to other competitors. Speaking about licensing, they have a private manager license for $1000, which you can use for administration as well. Then they offer a worker license for $500, and then a reviewer or contributor license which is free."

"Adobe Workfront is an expensive solution."

"Our customers pay a yearly licensing fee for the solution."
