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.

Efficient project planning with advanced impact and delay analysis features

You need to have a good understanding of project management before you build programs using P6. Learning the tool takes time, so you should spend hands-on time with it while developing your project management skills. It's a mix of hands-on work and project management skills. I'd rate the solution 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

"Monitoring the progress of projects and tasks is very effective."

"The tool is very user-friendly."

"The solution is stable."

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

"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."

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

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

"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

"The most valuable features were the cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structure."

"It is very, very good in planning for large projects."

"Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is a well-engineered product from an IT perspective."

"The solution's tech support is good."

"The most valuable features were the cost breakdown structure and work breakdown structure."

More Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management pros

Cons

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

"The solution's visualization feature could be user-friendly."

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

"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."

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

"Adobe Workfront could improve its interface, which may benefit from an overhaul for better consistency between the web interface and the API."

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

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

More Adobe Workfront cons

"The solution's user interface is an area with shortcomings that need improvement."

"There is scope for development in integrating with some AI products."

"There is a need for improvement in the interfacing and possibly better integration with other programs."

"Primavera could be better integrated with other products, and it needs more cost management features."

"There is scope for development in integrating with some AI products."

"The reporting could improve project management. We need multiple source reports. If someone is new to the support it has a steep learning curve."

"The scalability has room for improvement."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of Workfront is completely license based."

"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 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."

"Adobe Workfront is an expensive solution."

"My company has made an annual payment towards the costs of the solution. Price-wise, the solution is okay."

"The solution itself is cost-effective."

"Oracle Primavera Portfolio Management is an expensive solution. There is an upfront cost to purchase the solution and then there are annual fees to use the solution."

"The solution is highly priced compared to one of its competitors."
