Overall Satisfaction with Workfront

Pros

  • Streamlining requests/reviews/approvals
  • Streamlining internal workflow processes
  • Centralizing all projects in ONE location

Cons

  • Search feature isn't great (i.e. will search for a keyword from a project name and that project won't come up).
  • The app leaves a lot to be desired...to get things done remotely, I often need to login to the web interface on my phone because the app is not robust enough to allow the same control.
  • Would love the ability to clone/copy projects or previous requests (I have some recurring requests that are similar, sometimes identical and it would save me a ton of time if I could just find a previous one, clone it, and update it with the new info).
  • Would love the ability for Workfront to "assign" project codes (not just a number).
  • Notifications sometimes don't work as expected.
  • Manage requests/reviews/approvals
  • Manage workflows
  • Improved productivity and collaboration
  • Ensures projets aren't "forgotten"
FileMaker was rather cumbersome. Basecamp was good, but lacked some features. Workfront was the most robust tool we evaluated. Love that it's cloud-based and love that there are many features (some we may never use, but some we plan to further explore). So, it can grow with us.
I only gave it an 8 because of the areas where I feel it's lacking. Overall, Workfront is the best project management software we tested. I think it's scalable to such an extent that it could work for most any type of scenario.
