Best in class software...

Workfront is a great company. The software is incredible and the people who support it are also great. I like the admin capabilities, the ability to create a dynamic form in minutes, create and update workflows easily, and the power reporting capabilities. I wish more thought went into their agile project management but I am sure they will get there.

This is a great Project Management tool. There was a a year or so learning curve for me as I never done project management before. However, I'm still learning and i'm about 2 years in.

Overall we are happy with how things are going with Workfront! I do want to point out that we have been very surprised (and beginning to grow concerned) at the amount of system glitches we are finding and having to log. Many having to be escalated to 2nd Tier development team to resolve. Although the tool has great potential and functionality, this is certainly holding it back. Here are a couple usability concern's we've found: - Frequent system glitches (as mentioned above) - No timer/stopwatch solution for time tracking - No way to make logging time on a task mandatory - No way to create recurring tasks via templates - Delegating approvals while on vacation is possible, but delegating task assignments is not. - No consideration of recurring work processes, organizations that execute recurring services or subscriptions for clients. How this factors into operations and financial forecasting, etc. With that being said, I think Workfront is well equipped to be an industry leader if it can resolve these critical concerns. Without resolving these, I feel many agencies and marketing organizations will feel hindered.

If you're in the market for an enterprise project management software Workfront is worth considering, it's customization capabilities are awesome. It's also great at bridging communication between teams assigned to work on the same project and the reporting allows you to monitor work at a glance.

I think Workfront offers an application that works for my business. I am still learning how to use the application to its full potential. the community provides invaluable help when I was stuck and has solved an issue with a few hours of posting to the discussion board.

Pros: - helps our business to improve communication, - excellent tool for reporting, - higher level of accountability in the business, - fully customized. Cons: - some options are not very user friendly, Overall Workfront is very valuable tool.

Workfront has had a tremendous impact on our company. Overall, it has significantly increased our efficiency in terms of software releases as well as streamlined out communications internally. We do run into communication breakdowns though not being able to include external emails (not review users) on general updates or when users cannot view or attach documents in email responses. Things end up falling back to general emails and out of the system which causes some trouble. We also have performance issues almost daily where we get the "Working on your request" notification bar quite often. This impacts productivity and causes a level of frustration. We would also like to control our in app/in web notifications as these create a lot of noise when users are on many teams. We rely mostly on the email notifications for assignments but now have double work to clear notifications since the email : In app notifications aren't quite the same so both need to be left on. We have been very pleased with the types of new features and functionality that has been rolled out in the previous releases. As a software company ourselves, it's nice to see proactive type dev items being delivered. On that note, the testing of these items doesn't quite seem as thorough as it once was and simple things like having html markup in a status update for 3/4 of a business day or not being able to type out a timestamp really have a negative impact on our team. We understand big bugs, we do, but there does seem to be a little less care in testing recently. Overall, we are happy with our move to workfront and work around these items. We have made a significant investment in the software in both time and money and would just like to see some of the above items addressed. Thanks!
