Chris French - PeerSpot reviewer
Enhanced project management and automation simplify reporting and approval processes
I think that Adobe Workfront could be improved in several areas, including reporting, which I've already mentioned. There are very specific things within the custom forms that I think could be improved, such as having different labels within forms instead of system-wide. The ability to hide options in a drop-down at the custom form level instead of system-wide would be another improvement. There are times we have to create brand new fields because we need slightly different wording within the label. If we had the capability, we could easily trim down from over 1,000 custom fields to about 400 custom fields if we had the ability to have individual labels by form. So reporting is a big one, and I think there are some not huge changes needed, but improvements to custom forms and custom fields would be beneficial. My experience with reporting in Adobe Workfront so far is that the reporting could be better. The ability to report is great, but I think it is too difficult. Regarding dashboards, they are crucial to be able to pull information from different levels, but that's also a negative because it is very difficult to do that on a report. If I have issue-level data and project-level data that I need to see, with some custom coding, you can do some of it in a report, but in general, if you have a lot of that blended data between levels, you need to use a dashboard, which requires two different reports due to the difficulty in pulling data at the different levels into one thing.

Has improved workflow accuracy and team autonomy across multiple departments
I find several features of Process Street especially valuable. Dynamic workflow management allows me to update processes “in-flight” without causing disruption. Automation capabilities have streamlined onboarding, client delivery, and project milestones. Zapier integrations have unified multiple platforms, including ClickUp, the CRM, and Front, ensuring seamless data flow. The tool supports scalability, managing 20–30 web builds simultaneously with predictable outcomes. Its customizable templates make it easy for teams to create or adapt workflows for new clients or services. Cross-department flexibility means that it is used successfully in HR, finance, marketing, and project management. Accountability tools, such as task assignments and transparent tracking, ensure that nothing falls behind.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The most valuable feature of Adobe Workfront that I have found is the external lookup, which helps users to get the outputs based on the API and enables users to get region information if it was in the country based on the logic-driven key and value pair."
"The solution is stable."
"Adobe Workfront acts as a centralized platform, providing a single source of truth for project tasks and resources, supporting Agile methodologies like Kanban and Scrum, and allowing customizable workflows to automate tasks and streamline approvals."
"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."
"One of the best things about Adobe Workfront is that we can immediately track each project, keep track of all tasks with milestones, and monitor everything effectively."
"Instead of following everything on email, business users can track everything on Adobe Workfront when the other systems are integrated with it."
"The intake feature is the most valuable in Workfront."
"Adobe Workfront has been stable in my experience, and I would rate its stability as an eight out of ten."
"Process Street transformed Rent Builder Property Management’s operations by standardizing and automating property onboarding processes, reducing setup time by nearly 75%, and increasing tenant management efficiency by 25% through streamlined communication."
"At Planning Pros, we leveraged Process Street to eliminate manual inefficiencies and compliance risks in our daily operations, with automated client onboarding and built-in compliance checks leading to $20,000 in annual savings and faster processing completed in hours instead of days."
"Process Street is a cornerstone of Accentuate’s operational excellence; it powers every aspect of the business, from onboarding and HR to client project management and marketing execution."

Cons

"The downtime, while not too long or frequent, is an area for improvement."
"Integration with Azure DevOps could be improved to facilitate better communication between the two systems."
"Adobe Workfront could improve its interface, which may benefit from an overhaul for better consistency between the web interface and the API."
"My experience with reporting in Adobe Workfront so far is that the reporting could be better."
"Their agile tools are not as good as they could be, not as good as competitor products."
"Our product and graphic designers are working with various Adobe products, but Workfront has a no-frills interface. It's a useful tool with everything we need, but it could be a little more attractive and present information in a polished way. It's a web interface, so it's accessible, but the appearance could be a little slicker."
"In Adobe Workfront, there is a limit of 2,000 users that can be shown on a page. I would suggest increasing this to something around 10,000 so end users can search all objects more efficiently."
"The performance needs to be smoother, and there is room for improvement in Data Connect while writing queries and integrating with other analysis tools."
"I would like to see enhanced built-in compliance reporting dashboards designed specifically for small firms."
"I would like to see enhanced built-in compliance reporting dashboards designed specifically for small firms."
"Process Street could benefit from expanded in-app analytics or deeper native integrations with CRMs and project management platforms to reduce reliance on third-party tools such as Zapier."

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"We are partners with Adobe, so we get the licensing at a cheaper rate."
"Adobe Workfront is an expensive solution."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing of Workfront is completely license based."
