What do you like best about Workzone?

Workzone is ready to you out of the box. If you used Microsoft Project in the 90's, this will feel relatively comfortble to you. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workzone?

Workzone doesn't really align with many other online systems that allow a lot of integrations with other tools and customized reports. The tool really only works if you follow their work pattern. There is a lot of discussion of customized training, but we found it to be very generic and not well suited to how we worked. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workzone solving and how is that benefiting you?

Workzone helped us when we had no project management system in place. As we started doing more and needed to get reports that provided more detail, we found that each report did one thing and many reports often lacked the filters needed to get better information.

What do you like best about Workzone?

What do you dislike about Workzone?

After creating a project and tasking out all of the pieces, it can be difficult to go in and edit tasks or group tasks together, especially when there are dependencies and it can be difficult to find what dependency is preventing the edits. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workzone solving and how is that benefiting you?

It allows us to work collaboratively with our partners and keep each person up-to-date with their tasks and responsibilities for each project. It also helps us organize all of our many projects and keep timelines and deadlines straight. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workzone?

Workflow management has strong features such as: business process automation, a graphical editor, customizable control panels, third party integrations, etc., that provide optimization to user projects. It allows to manage in an optimal way the workload of the workers, with the purpose of delivering a professional work in the assigned time. The campaigns have all the necessary information of each project and client. Workzone is also enabled for use on a Mac. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workzone?

The program has functions that are not intuitive enough and this leads to more manual adjustments for example functions such as calendars, causing a considerable delay in the progress of tasks. At the moment it does not contain a mobile application. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workzone:

To be a perfect project management software it has to offer the Kanban board. A customer portal could further enhance the Workzone platform. A mobile application for Smartphones would provide better convenience for all users. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workzone solving and how is that benefiting you?

One advantage of using Workzone is that it contains a very tidy dashboard that allows you to see all the necessary information about the employees and the tasks being performed. It becomes very easy to accommodate the employee's workload and to be able to redirect that task to another employee with less work. Real-time messages that can be sent to employees after isolating tasks in the To Do List have accelerated the finalization of projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Workzone?

Workzone contains all the necessary tools to carry out campaigns with your team. Allows users to save time because you can use jobs and campaigns created in past projects, to use them again for future jobs. It contains an intelligent model where the tasks and sub-tasks to create are located. Web and cloud-based implementations are more stable than other project management software. It has very good intuition to track and record each project Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Workzone?

It can take time to master all the tasks that Workzone offers, although the fact that the whole program is intelligently organized reduces learning time. Workzone does not have the option of looking at the accumulated hours of a project still in progress. It contains a limited number of templates, which makes it difficult to complete certain types of projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering Workzone:

New agencies and organizations may not be able to afford the Workzone service, so I recommend that they create a cheaper version, with less ammounts of tasks but keeping the same methodology. Online training can be more dynamic, there are features that are more advanced that cannot be taught easily and quickly Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Workzone solving and how is that benefiting you?

We are working in more orderly ways because all the information about our users' work is in the workload. Project portfolio management is used for resource management and time tracking, along with a very fast communications panel. Workflow has been improved because we use tasks like the graphic editor and business process automation. The customer support is very well prepared and they are very polite Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
