Pros

This is regularly a superb item for any business to have. Makes imaginative tasks a breeze.
Excellent proof approval tool, excellent user capabilities and interface, complex data capabilities.
Our overall experience has been great so far. The support staff have been helpful and we are loving it so far.

Pros

Good for helping a team see what other team members are doing, and allowing work to be tracked effectively. Helps to keep deadlines in mind and on goal.
Helps you to keep a track of all your project activities and schedule all your tasks. The tool is easy to use for beginners and helps to understand its working with less time and great efficiency.
Extremely robust and powerful tool once fully understood. Fairly simple construction of charts and data visualization, and the ability to expand capabilities within the software.

Cons

I also get frustrated sometimes with the way that comments and updates can get "trapped" at a task level and you can end up having to click around for a while to find a conversation.
I find it difficult at times when I’m trying to figure out the order of comments. Sometimes the screen gets wonky and I lose my place and it zooms in on accident a lot.
With any software it is not always correct and sometimes if the software is not correct it can lead to issues or wrong decisions down the road.

Cons

To me this may be more important than planning as the lack of project visibility might put the project at risk more so than a poor plan.
The only dislike that i encountered in Microsoft Project, is that it is desktop-installed; other than that nothing.
Sometimes it gets confused. Also, sometimes working with multiple teams and multiple people per team, it has a hard time allocating resources.

Very good for project managers

Reviewed 5 years ago

This helps me and my team track and communicate what is happening with all our projects. Before, it was difficult to keep everyone up to date on each project.

Pros

The amount of customization that can be done is really helpful. This software has a lot of features, such as custom fields, that are great. This is really an easier to use Microsoft Project.

Cons

This tool is really meant for project managers or anyone who would use it daily. It can be difficult to get people to use it who are not familiar with project management or do not care about keeping up with it. There are also some restrictions on what can be done that only people with very high access can change.

Reviewed a year ago

In general, there is a lot of engagement with Adobe Workfront. Customers appreciate the executive's highlights, such as task following, asset management, and coordinated effort tools, as well as the stage's ambitious endeavor. The ability to adapt work procedures and include task-related activities is frequently regarded as a major benefit. We see it as an important tool for streamlining the project and the executive's processes and enhancing group productivity, even though there may be an expectation to learn and adapt specific to the stage.

Pros

For the teams I work on at my organization, moving from four distinct platforms—ServiceNow, Excel, Smartsheet, and Microsoft Project—to one platform has been a lifesaver when it comes to project intake, planning, and execution. We developed our own workflows, taught our submitters on a single system, and subsequently trained our PMs on the same system. One benefit I really enjoy is that we may add new features and modifications at any time.

Cons

It does take some getting used to the program. In order to become familiar with the terminology (tasks vs. projects, dashboards, and reports), a significant amount of onboarding typically occurs. From the standpoint of my team, we utilized our onboarding sessions to personalize dashboards for each team member. Both the designers' and copywriters' dashboards are separate. Thus, even while the intricacy is a drawback, there is a lot of room for additional customization.

We have been using the Workfront solution for over 12 months now, and have found the service and availability of the cloud solution nothing less than excellent. We engaged and deployed in less than 2 months, we 3 onsite weeks with their consultant.

Brought together our cross-functional teams into 1 system for project tracking & resource management

Reviewed 7 years ago

-Project visibility across multiple groups & departments -Reporting/tracking on time delivery of deliverables & projects -More insight into workload of users on different teams

Pros

-Project visibility across multiple teams - Workfront makes it easy for different groups to work on projects together & provide updates through the system, so all your project information is gathered in one place. The project details page & updates become your one source of truth when tracking why a project became late or who made decisions about certain project aspects. -Project templates - The ability to create project templates makes opening new projects a breeze & quicker manipulation of due dates

Cons

-Resource allocation - I think that the process of bulk assigning users to project tasks is a bit clunky, but I still like the feature. It feels awkward having to leave your project, go to a different tab, and navigate through several more clicks to find where to bulk assign all of your project tasks.

Full featured but not intuitive

Reviewed 5 years ago

For how we use it, it works well on a day to day basis. Report capabilities seem excellent, though I have only used reports created by the admin team, so I don't know much about the report creation process.

Pros

Our company values accurate time tracking, especially time spent working on projects vs "light on" type of work. This product allows great configurability for setting up time tracking for projects, tasks, and various kinds of "lights on" work (i.e. bugfix, routine maintenance, enhancement, etc) by business area supported, etc, which allows us to create accurate reporting on these measures. This helps in greatly in resource mananagement, such as when teams can absorbe more work, when they are overloaded, when to add an FTE or bring in consultants, etc.

Cons

It is incredibly full featured and sometimes feels like using a sledgehammer to hammer in a nail. Admittedly, we are not using it to it's full advantage, but even the process of adding a project and subordinate tasks to my timesheets seems overly tedious. Specifically, if a project manager gives me the project # in workfront, if I search for that it never returns the project for me to add. I have to know something in the title of the project to find it, and then I can add tasks, etc.

Workfront Review from a Production Managers view.

Reviewed 5 years ago
Pros

Pretty easy for creatives to understand and to set up reports and dashboards with an quick snapshot of what's important. We want to spend about 5-10% of the day in Workfront so it's easy to do the basics with.

Cons

Not being able to attach files to comments in Updates, not being able to use Tasks like a Microsoft PP, Google Sheet or Smartsheet (which is a the most basic project management birdseye view at this point), not being able to turn off features that you don't want your team to use (like attaching documents to tasks instead of putting in a folder).

Helpful for collaboration, but not intuitive

Reviewed 4 years ago

Overall, it seems like there are more features than we need at this time. I think the tool has a lot of potential and would be great for companies looking to track more information. However with all that functionality, the tool becomes confusing to do simple project managament.

Pros

I like how it is easy to tag someone in a project to notify them of your comment. This makes collaboration easy, and it's a nice way to remind someone of a task.

Cons

The platform is not intuitive. It's not easy to go from your task list to a project. I also don't completely understand the need for each task to have it's own page since it makes commenting more segmented in the project. We use the main project page vs individual task pages.

We implemented Workfront about 4 years ago and it's been extremely beneficial with our project and product management. It provides insight for senior level managers as to how our campaigns are tracking, resource management, and overall productivity of our employees.

Pros

-project management -reporting

Cons

latency issues data capacities reporting could be better

Overall, the system is providing high level visibility with what our team needs, just need to drill down more to make it more specific

Visibility; charts and ability to create reports

Cons

Having overall status auto change; workproof spell check and project name listed.

Great tool with unlimited capabilities

Reviewed 8 years ago

Workfront is an amazing tool and it would probably be impossible to completely utilize it at 100%. Our team has been impressed, albeit overwhelmed, with the options, but are already seeing improvements in less than 6 months of use.

Pros

flexibility, project management success

Cons

complex, technical jargon doesn't always make sense to end user

Microsoft Project

Great tool for quickly accessing projected and estimated timelines and schedules.

Pros

In Cross-Functional Team meetings, I use Project to easily manipulate schedules and provide quick access dates to the team members. Instead of editing the dates in a slow and clunky WorkFront schedule, Project instantly updates dates and provides me with what I need. Once the schedule tasks are created and I make a visual schedule, it's a nice tool to be able to present to team members.

Cons

Still using 2010 version as company won't upgrade my system. Feels like I'm missing out on new features that could make me more efficient. Sometimes exporting the visual schedule can be difficult in placing it into Microsoft Note or an email.
