Workfront Reviews & Product Details - Page 2

I like the home page where I can customize what I want to view. I had my project list where it notified me if a project was in different status allowing me to know where things were at without needing to open each project. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I disliked, and it might have been user error but I could not figure out how to work aorund it. When we deleted a field in a template for the issue brief that was no longer needed for future projects, it would delete the field from older projects where that field was needed and we would lose data. Therefore we would need to keep old fields and making issue brief long to go through and fill out, because we werent able to delete a field no longer needed. Please feel free to contact me if you need me to explain this further. Thank you! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workfront enabled my team to track many different projects and ensure resourcing was being evenly distributed to ensure projects could be finished in time. It allowed for collaboration from outside teams to input information about evolving priorities and create custom dashboard views for stakeholders. The Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

With the types of projects we were working on that could have a fast turnaround time it was difficult for team members to keep up on entering completion dates. The interface for enterting dates was slightly cumbersome and for those who needed to enter dates for multiple activities at once it was not easy. There were some projects we tried to use workfront for but teams did not adopt it and opted for simpler systems as it was slightly too detailed in the types of inputs and maintance it required to be useful.

I like that I can use easily Workfront to manage the projects that I have within my company. It has been easy to integrate it within our day-to-day activities and we implemented most of it's functions to the tasks that we do daily. I use it very frequently just as the rest of Adobe tools to optimize my work. I haven't have the need to contact the customer support team, but I am confident that if I do, I can obtain good assistance. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The only thing that I may dislike about workfront is how it is not compatible with canvas. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about workfront is that is it the foundation of the content supply chain while providing a centralised and transparent workflow system for all teams to collaborate, but all use the tool in the best way for them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I'd love workfront planning to be more connected to Core workfront without the use of Fusion but I am sure that is coming down the line. Same with a unified approval experience which I know was announced today, so looking forward to that. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It’s a fully customizable solution with a great automation tool (Fusion). You can build almost any workflow need, and includes a proofing tool, which is unique for many PM tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

To get achieve robust reporting, automation and intake, integration support is often needed, at an added cost. A lot of features require additional coding to do what I often think should be an out of the box feature. It’s also not very user friendly, so you’ll need a skilled System Admin to tailor the product to make it as easy as possible for your users. Even with extensive work, training to use the product is often necessary, which limits scalability. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Multiple departments can benefit from using Workfront to be more efficient and optimize current processes with ease.

Workfront creates a singular paper trail for users to keep track of the latest file versions and feedback accuracy.

Archive feature allows users to reference previous projects easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workfront customer engagement teams should do more outreach to current clients about utilization opportunities to expand their use of the platform. Lots of companies have redundant solutions that Workfront can do and save their clients budget spend and make them even more efficient at executing tasks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It`s great for planning marketing strategies and coordinating with other groups. The simplicity of the tools enable us to work efficiently without having to learn how to utilize a tool. It took very little time for our team to work efficiently with it. Also customer support was simple and quick to respond. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Because I use mostly Microsoft products, I was looking for simple integration to utilize PowerBI. It`s not simple to push the data with a third party app. Also we templates in Microsoft planner or projects we would like to use to continue using our internal best practices. Simpler integration to MS world would greatly improve the product. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about Workfront is the integration with all the other Adobe products Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes Workfront can be frustrating because of all the options and possibilities you can choose from. This can lead to decision paralysis and being unsure how to accomplish what you want. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Adobe is known for the vast array of programs and applications under their brand and Workfront is no different. Creative Suite programs are usually all interconnected so having something like Workfront brings a different depth to the ecosystem that Adobe offers. The amount of features that it contains allows you to account for most of your workflow needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The one thing I don't like about Workfront is the lack of simplicity. There is a definitely a learning curve that isn't present in other project management programs. The amount of tools they offer you is nice, but I found myself getting lost with the amount I could actually do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workfront has been our project management solution for years. I really think it is a wonderful tool that allows us to track feedback of our stakeholders and easily get approvals. The best part is the tracking of the updates, the tracking of the amount of jobs, the amount of hours etc. We do thousands of jobs a year and this tool can easily meet that quantity.

Implementation is complicated - I wish we had someoone that was assigned to just be the Workfront manager. We're also looking at utilizing their DAM feature, but have not been able to integrate that. If only we could hit pause on our workflow for a few weeks! :) Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
