Workzone Reviews & Product Details

We use WorkZone every day as the essential following framework for our land, development, and building frameworks groups. The framework gives an incredible abnormal state status see, with the capacity to bore down into particulars. Since its simple to utilize, group 'purchase in' was quick, guaranteeing the framework is exact and modern. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One redeeming point is no downtime in a year. The service was always running. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Extremely fiddly to use. The setup is counter-intuitive, and eve after using it in a team for more than a year the befenefit never showed itself. The team manager who purchased Workzone tried to set up workflows as well as he could, and was in constant touch with the US support team to make it happen. The UI looks like it belongs in 2006, and nothing works the way you think it does. To do even the simples of operations is a hassle, requiring a ton of clicks, and checkboxes.

The only reason we started using Workzone over any other tool, was a promise that we could set up a finish date, and automatically have a plan drawn up until the due date. This never worked correct. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Flexibility in creating multiple 'workspaces' to allow team members to create their own tracking methodology Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We are new users, don't have any specific issues yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is pretty easy to get this platform up and running. Possibly because there does not seem to be much to it, load resources, upload tasks, and go. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Very minimal reporting available, not able to see Gantt-like report across project boards. I have cross-functional teams allocated to different projects and not able to see where their time has been allocated simulateously. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the ability to see everything you have going on, no matter the department, and the ability to filter by task and project. I think this is largely dependent on how well your Workzone instance is set up and maintained by your department or company, but when it is done right, productivity and/or accountability can skyrocket.

I dislike templates in general. They're only editable (and viewable) by the administrator. And when you set a template, it's pretty rigid and difficult to change on the fly -- sometimes you have to make major changes because of a specific project, and Workzone doesn't make that too easy. Plus the way some tasks are dependent and cascade, one missed deadline could make EVERYONE else's tasks late. Again, this may be something that can be remediated by a good administrator, but it's a risk nonetheless. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that we have been able to take the features that we like most and use them, but not HAVE to use a ton of the functionality that we don't need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

hmmm... Just a little bit of the usability, jumping from reports to projects to documents. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

We use WorkZone on a daily basis as the primary tracking system for our real estate, construction, and building systems teams. The system provides a great high level status view, with the ability to drill down into specifics. Because its easy to use, team 'buy in' was fast, helping ensure the system is accurate and up to date. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Navigation thru the system could be improved in some areas, such as returning to where you were on a page after making a change, as opposed to a full page refresh. That said; the product continues to develop and improve. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

i love that Workzone gives me the tasks that i need to complete for the day as well as letting me know what is coming up. I can see everything that needs to be done in our office at any given time. I no longer have rely on piles of papers and folders everything is right at my fingertips on the computer. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

there is really nothing to dislike about the program. sometimes it would be easier if i could alter multiple projects at once but it is not the worst thing in the world to have to do it one at a time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The ease of use is one of the best features around. The software is intuitive and you can get up and running with very little training. They also allow you to store documents with each task thus keeping everything you need for your project together. The support staff is always friendly and extremely knowledgeable. I would recommend this software to anyone who juggle multiple projects and needs to stay organize. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hardly anything, but the "reports" feature could be better...although I hardly use this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
