Falls Short For Agile Fortunately, if you're in tech chances are that you run your projects in some form of Agile. Unfortunately for you, this is where WF falls incredibly short. While it's incredibly flexible and allows you to do many things the more experienced you become with it, I can't help but feel that WF was built for something else. It seems like it was a MS Project competitor that was adapted for Agile work. The most mundane tasks like issue/bug creating and story pointing can turn from simple things into a complex exploratory mission in a UI that's been slapped together without thinking of intuitiveness and UX. If it was up to me I'd honestly use JIRA, but WF is ok.

Good stuff Workfront has a lot of great features and many ways to accomplish your company goals. That's a benefit but also can be a crutch when working with multiple people across many different states. The implementation process takes a while and the learning curve after implementation is quite large, so be sure to expect months before things run smoothly. Once it clicks for people, it's very intuitive and use becomes second nature.

Horrible software Horrible software, I have never used software as bad as Workfront. This is a multi million dollar company with so many issues. I had to find this site just to leave this review. Its been frustrating using this software, it fricken blows. Customer support sucks too, they follow up with an email that doesnt have any details on what they are following up on. So if you have multiple issues (yea no kidding, horrible software, so yes I have multiple issues), you are dealing with abysmal customer support.

UI is a struggle for new users UI is a struggle for new users. The tool is designed for project managers, people who understand or who have had formal training in project management. The deal is, the majority of users aren't. They need a simplified version way to manage work, build out timelines, quickly update add remove tasks without have to thing about predecessors or task dependencies, etc.

New to workfront Let me start off by saying that I'm very open minded about new software. I was hoping to leverage workfront as a project management tool and an IT-Help Desk work request tool. Three basic key elements, I was looking for in my review was: 1. Ease of use for user and admin 2. Easy to manage projects work and requests at a glance 3. Quick reporting tools to track project status/hours or work request status/hours Perhaps I need to play around with my customize views a little more or it’s just a software limitation, but coming from an IT Help Desk environment in my previous place that uses BMC Track-It and CRM software heavily, I find workfront has room to improve. Perhaps in the next version we can have information all displayed in one central screen and users can customize what they don't want to see.
