Helps us to implement and understand the status of our projects
The initial setup is straightforward. The solution's deployment takes around two months time. We have to set up the solution. We have to put in the data to ensure that the solution is working. We need to fill out our process, our tools, and our data. Two developers were involved in the deployment process. It is a self-maintained solution that requires updates from time to time. I rate the setup an eight out of ten.

Easy to tag people and has a form system to collect information but cannot work in multiple channels simultaneously
There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful. Transferring data from one project to another is also difficult. It would be easier to work on parallel tasks across different projects. I've noticed others facing similar issues when I check the chat on their website. The tool should also improve coordination between external stakeholders and collaborators. It should also integrate financial features.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The dashboard is the most valuable feature."
"My personal experience with the product was good, primarily because of the support team's responsiveness."
"ERP approach to IT (edit architecture elements as data using forms, easier for many people compared to drawing / modeling) Hundreds of predefined reports (not only for analysis but also for displaying profiles for single elements like an application including dynamically generated diagrams based on edited data) Very sophisticated meta model (dozens of man years of experience condensed in it) Enterprise collaboration features Web client for the enterprise, either on-site installation or running in a private cloud."
"I would recommend trying planningIT"
"It has a simple and easy-to-use UI."
"The improvement was quickly seen in project planning and execution because all people involved know which tasks are assigned and to whom."
"All I can elaborate on here is that we were able to close more projects than expected and save the company thousands of dollars."
"Their support is pretty good, and they've been pretty helpful."
"It's a very easy-to-use and flexible tool. We can easily write and create queues for different themes. It's very user-friendly."
"The solution is bug-free and reliable."
"Great software with excellent support."
"Wrike's Gantt charts are great for project management and super simple to implement and use."
 

Cons

"Only few predefined integrations with other tools exist, most integrations are implemented via an integration module based on XML typically needing vendor expertise."
"The tool is clearly not very intuitive."
"The user-experience, enhanced performance, and in-hand governance can be improved."
"You can't get custom notifications."
"More options in the "basic" paid version would be nice."
"It is great for smaller projects, but cannot replace Project or Smartsheet."
"The main downfall for us is the lack of ability to apply time (budget) for tasks/projects as well as scheduling to make sure that we aren't overstacking a department with too much work at a quick glance."
"Sometimes, since it's in the cloud, information isn't updated as fast as you need it to be."
"It would be nice if it was a little more intuitive and user-friendly, with less of a learning curve."
"Wrike needs to be more responsive to community requests for new features."
"The dataset that can be exported and built-in reports/dashboards needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. There is a yearly licensing cost. There are no additional costs, only the standard license, and the cloud license."
"Wrike is expensive."
"Wrike is very expensive, and its price is almost $1,400."
"From a pricing perspective, I would rate Wrike a four out of five."
"Wrike is not so expensive, but I don't know exactly how it compares with other tools. Wrike might not be so cheap when we are using it for a lot of users."
