Wrike Valuable Features
Mladen Tubin
BIM Manager at PG Design Studio Inc
It's full of unique and interesting features. Wrike keep everything centralized in one place, and that goes along with our CDE principles for any platform we manage in our organization. It enables cross-tagging of certain items, sharing, reporting, and having insight into multiple places of our work.

The most valuable feature of Wrike is the tag functionality. After creating it, I can tag a task and select which folder the task belongs to. So I only need to modify one task, and all the folders will be automatically updated from this task. The thumbnail functionality is another useful function of Wrike, which is quite uncommon in many software.

I started using Wrike 4 years ago at a previous company and now I'm still using it today with my current company (we had to get them on board). We manage ALL tasks in Wrike. If there's anything we need to do, we put it in Wrike, assign it out, and collaborate within the tool. It does everything we need.
I have used a few different task management tools. Asana, Trello, Producteev, Todoist, Wunderlist, Microsoft's stuff; but Wrike tops them all. While it sounds a little cliche, I haven't found something that I wanted to do/organize that I couldn't do on Wrike. It allows for nested upon nested sub tasks, timeline views, priority management, time clocking, and awesome collaboration.

It is very helpful the fact that we can record the time that we spend in each task in order to be more productive, and pay attention to all those things we can accomplish if we spend a certain continuous amount of time.

Task Function
- It's easy to create, assign and monitor tasks. Wrike has excellent in-task communication and collaboration features. I also found the integration with Gantt Chart or Table/Excel schedule to be excellent.
Folder Structure for Project File Management
- It's intuitive and easy to use. The interface mirrors the basic Windows interface so it's easily learned by any team member. The copy function is also very useful.
Wrike Knowledge Base & Customer Support
- They have an excellent range of training documents and videos. Additionally, their live chat was phenomenal!

Wrike is excellent at being customized for use and project management. Understanding the way that you can use the tool to flow projects/tasks within our organization has been extremely helpful. Generally, duplicating tasks have been one of the best features introduced so far for us as we have a lot of reoccurring projects so this has significantly reduced time and helped streamline work.

- Gantt chart -- This helps with projects that are complex and require various tasks or phases to be completed in order to develop a final project. We simply could not plan product releases effectively without this!
- Folders -- Organization is incredibly important when managing projects for several different facets (customer-driven, sales-driven, marketing-driven, etc) and the fact that I can manipulate and move projects into different folders helps me watch a project as it travels through our "workflow" from inception to delivery.
- Tasks -- Not only developing unlimited tasks and sub-tasks with deadlines, but also being able to assign them to different people within our teams has allowed us to have a central point to work from. I highly appreciate the ability to duplicate folders with their included tasks as our workflow is often repeated for similar projects.

I find it flexible as tasks can be easily categorized to allow you to handle your work in a variety of ways.
In the dashboard, you have a perfect overview to all assigned, to do, and overdue tasks and in activity stream, you get news about the work that is done in your team.
Wrike is improving continually and over time they have developed many features in order to achieve better efficiency.
