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

"Overall, our company has all disintegrated systems, and with Planisware, we are getting a very integrated view of my portfolio reporting, cost and load, and everything else."

"It stands out by automating the intricate mechanics of project execution, eliminating the need for highly technical individuals to manage and reconfigure models."

"Planisware has introduced Agile concepts, making it capable of Agile management similar to Jira and other Agile tools."

"The solution is performance-oriented and easily customized accordingly to many areas, such as performance KPI."

"We have a variety of different modules, but it is mainly used for costs, risks, and resources."

"It has an inbuilt BI tool, which can be compared to Power BI or Tableau."

"Planisware offers integration with multiple tools and provides a good level of customization."

"There are two things in particular that I enjoy. The first is the portfolio planning section. Another advantage is that it is highly customizable."

More Planisware pros

"Visibility and organization are the most valuable features of Wrike."

"In our company, we heavily rely on Wrike. Wrike has helped in communication, managing all sorts of projects and tasks, and having a history of all our correspondence items."

"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 most valuable feature of Wrike is the tag functionality."

"We can easily write down the tasks and reorganize them as well as have a progression index. Wrike offers several views including a kanban view and Gantt chart view."

"The solution is stable and reliable."

"The product is intuitive. It is easy to learn and update. You can follow the project from the beginning till the end with the help of the solution. The tool helps to update the project in seconds."

"This is a good tool for project progress tracking and sharing tasks with internal and external parties."

More Wrike pros

Cons

"They do not have anything that can assist customers with multi-year roadmap planning."

"The UI and UX of Planisware are not that advanced."

"The area that could benefit from improvement in this Planisware is the project management tool. I have previously used Project Server, which is a Microsoft solution, and I found it to be more user-friendly as it included a client solution. In contrast, with this solution, the only option available is the online version, making it difficult to create activities, milestones, and other necessary components. This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution."

"The solution's user experience and user interface need improvement because they are not that great and intuitive."

"Its stability should be improved. Its stability is the main issue, but we sometimes also have issues with calculations."

"The biggest con for Planisware is that if you are not a Planisware partner, you don't have access to their functions, making it difficult for beginners and new team members."

"More integration is needed with other kinds of products for better collaboration."

"I have experienced some issues, and that’s okay. It tends to be stable when the server's processing power and memory are adequate."

More Planisware cons

"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."

"We faced an issue with the Wrike outlook add-on; it is only available for Microsoft Office 365, and not the on-premise version."

"On one side, it's very easy to create a task with text, but on the other side, it's not very well-formatted. Therefore, it's difficult to track specific data written in a task. We are making templates, but it's not enough to use a template to know the exact status of different tasks. One thing that we are looking for in Wrike is a better workflow. Because we can only move the status of tasks, we can't really manage workflow and send a task to a specific person. This is what is really missing in Wrike as compared to other tools. We are looking to replace Wrike because we need support for workflow. Another issue with Wrike is that they bring a lot of versions of the tool, which it's not so easy. They bring new versions very frequently, and these versions look similar. For example, we are using robots to read the tasks in the tools, which is problematic with Wrike because it is changing very frequently."

"The response from the website is a little bit slow, and the tool is too expensive for a small team."

"The product needs to send direct emails to customers updating the latest aspects since it is better to hear directly."

"What annoys me with Wrike and things that I would like to improve is that you need to have a very organized workflow that everyone in the company follows, and only then will Wrike work."

"Wrike needs to be more responsive to community requests for new features."

"We feel that the actual project reports and roll-ups could be a lot different. We are seeking something more for the dashboard. We would like a high-level dashboard that can be broken down into individual product roll-ups and tasks that are assigned. If you assign someone to a task, it assigns them all of the tasks under that. We want to be able to break those down so that a person doesn't have an 800 task list, for example. We want more separation with that and a higher-level dashboard experience."

More Wrike cons

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive and support is an extra cost. There are three license types to choose from, and we only pay for support and cloud services depending on our needs."

"It comes with a high cost."

"The solution could be less expensive and the cost of scaling is expensive too."

"There are training and certification costs."

"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."

"Wrike is expensive."
