### "This is so time saving"

November 2, 2018

5.0

Its great! it saves so much time. our company used to route pdfs and have to send a job sheet along by email, but having this software keeps everything in one place and makes for more efficiency.

Pros

It makes routing jobs so much easier and quick. There's lots of tools within it to mark up a proof, and attach images. It has a done check mark which helps keep you on track and see what comments you've read.

Cons

I dont like the update, the legacy viewer is easier to navigate

### "Great system that is always getting better"

May 8, 2019

5.0

Pros

My team is focused on using companies and projects within WF to manage our customer-facing projects as well as internal initiatives. The ease of use of setting up templates, custom tasks, and tracking custom fields is a huge win for us. Although there are other systems in this space, I have found that my team is able to utilize the basic-to-mid-tier functionality with ease. Also, the Success and Support structure around the system is top notch.

Cons

The one thing that continues to drive me batty is the inability to go from a Company record to any of its various associated projects. This seems like basic first-class functionality that is missing.

### "This is something you want to love but can't."

December 7, 2017

3.0

Easier routing of collateral. Plus headaches

Pros

It's a comprehensive solution, there's a fairly robust reporting functionality, and I like the gant chart view of your team so everyone can see what they're supposed to be working on.

Cons

It's really hard for most users to understand. It was actually quite difficult to learn how to implement as well, but that's okay. But my most consistent users are constantly complaining about the bugginess and my occasionally users are consistently confused by the user experience. We also had an insane error that was unresolved for 8 months and more than 15 sessions with customer service led to nothing - the error would not allow us to access the 'proof' functionality, which is the core reason you'd want to use the service. Finally, it was our own IT team who solved it.

### "Workfront for Marketing Dept Creative"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Overall experience has been good. We switched from an antiquated process for creative job requests and creative routing/approvals. Once established, we have been able to do more work more efficiently. Customer service and support are good as well.

Pros

I really like the flexibility to use as little or as many feature as we want. The scale of what Workfront can do is clearly large. We were able to smart small with simple project plans for creative work, and to route creative proofs for approval. We are now looking at expanding into the systems other features.

Cons

Initial discovery, setup, and training took half a year for us. It was a learning curve to truly understand what the system could do to transform the way we work. Also, there are often a few or several ways to accomplish the same thing in the system which can be confusing and overwhelming at times.

### "Workfront for project and task management. "

June 19, 2020

4.0

Workfront is easy, simple and fast to implement and set up. It has a simple and user-friendly interface which makes it easy to use and learn.

Pros

Workfront enables you to easily and quickly access your tasks and projects from anywhere anytime across the world. I like it because it makes it easy to manage my daily tasks, create and assign new tasks to my teams with ease.

Cons

Workfront meets all my daily needs so i have nothing to dislike about it.

### "Not only for nerds"

June 3, 2019

5.0

Simply brilliant. It has changed the way my team goes around the daily tasks and how we can find the answers to our stakeholders' questions.

Pros

Easiness of configuring and implementing even by a person who is not an IT expert. Great online courses and articles library have helped a lot on making the in-house implementation smooth.

Cons

There aren't things I really didn't like but I remember seeing the application for the first time and having an overwhelming feeling about too many functions and tabs - that's until i've learned what they are for and howe to use them.

Pros

Helps me to balance workloads and a user friendly and easy to collaborate with the team members. There's a lot of powerful features that can even track the progress of my team's various tasks.

Cons

there should be an option in importing data using excel or csv. entering tasks one by one is taking some time...

### "Adobe Workfront une solution de gestion de projet complète pour les équipes créatives et marketing"

March 29, 2023

5.0

Pros

L'une des principales forces d'Adobe Workfront est sa facilité d'utilisation et sa flexibilité, qui permettent aux utilisateurs de personnaliser l'interface en fonction de leurs besoins spécifiques. De plus, la plateforme offre de nombreuses fonctionnalités avancées telles que la gestion des tâches, le suivi du temps, la gestion des ressources, la gestion des workflows, la gestion des budgets, etc.

Cons

la courbe d'apprentissage peut est abrupte, en particulier pour les personnes qui ne sont pas familières avec les outils de gestion de projet. Cela peut entraîner une période d'adaptation plus longue et un besoin de formation supplémentaire pour les membres de l'équipe.

May 1, 2018

5.0

Pros

I like the ease of use, functionality and visibility into all the projects in the system. The reporting function is nice as well.

Cons

I wish that the Proofing tool had a tighter integration with Workfront projects by providing a link into the projects.

### "Easy way to Communicate with a Team"

January 17, 2020

5.0

We used it for one specific client and it performed exactly to our needs to keep the projects organized and keep the line of communication clear and concise. It helped to streamline our communication process into one platform.

Pros

What I liked most about the Workfront software was the ability to discuss a lot of different projects with an entire time. The communication channels are easy to follow and keep track of multiple projects at one time.

Cons

It was a little cumbersome to use at first but once you get a handle on all the tools it becomes an easy software to utilize and use on a daily basis. Great communication for a whole team that is located within several different offices.

### "I like the software overall and believe that with heavy customization, it could work for Agile"

November 14, 2017

3.0

As an archive system of record this is a usable solution, but is not ready to compete with more robust Agile management systems like JIRA or Rally

Pros

Very flexible. robust reporting and workflow is on the table. Approvals also were easily supported

Cons

No versioning on attachments No ability to tag groups on tickets and sub-thread comments. It was an impossibility to grow this to scale if every user has to be tagged everytime Not feeling the "Agile" button. With heavy customizations this may be possible, but out of the box backlog management to board maintenance is nearly impossible

### "We are using the product in an hospital environment for 4 years for every kind of project. "

May 18, 2017

5.0

We could register all projects in our institution and could supply dashboards to our top management.

Pros

Very high communication capabilities: very advanced tools for designing and customizing dahsboards. Strong capabilities in defining customized forms (custom data) Vey advanced API interface (we used them to interface Workfront with 4 different products) Powerful setup capabilities which are really great. The product is very felxible and can match any kinds of project types.

Cons

The learning curve is quite high if you want to take benefit of all the powerful capabilities. The product has currently two GANTT charts (a legacy one which has an advanced graphical designer built in Flash with no evolution, and a new one in HTML). The new one is simple and promising but needs further graphical enhancements. There are on-going implementations.

### "Manage Efficiently With Workfront"

March 29, 2024

5.0

Pros

I am able to use this application to help to support my teams workflow and output on a daily or weekly basis. The support team has knowledgeable experts on hand if you have any issues with it.

Cons

It seems to always need to be updated and sometimes the UI interface can merge projects and papers together to make things look complete when they aren't.

### "Technology and Collaboration will Help you Succeed"

September 12, 2019

4.0

Workfront has been transformational in the way we manage and collaborate on projects.

Pros

Workfront is a very robust system with the ability to customer a project, imbed milestones and collaborate with internal and external partners. It is truly a leader in the space.

Cons

More of an internal issue but we don't have a unified, cross-functional Admin who is fully understands all the use cases, ways of working, etc. and I would highly recommend having both a center of excellence in addition to a centralized Admin.

### "One of the BEST project management tools out there"

October 9, 2018

5.0

Pros

Of all the project management software I have used, I love Workfont the most. It's so easy to collaborate between teams and stay updated on project development. Also, the program feels more intuitive than things like Asana or LiquidPlanner - almost like you have a real PM right on your desktop.

Cons

The price but once you get setup with this product you'll wonder how you ever worked without it.

### "So customizable, you'll cry"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Hands down, your support team kills it. Lloyd Brown is RHE BEST person on the other end of the phone that I have worked with in the last 10 years. Customer support and help resources is through the roof. Overall, I have mind-melded with Workfront to the point that I don't remember what life was like without it. Keep on improving, never stop learning.

Pros

It's very flexible-- you can make it do almost anything and if not, there's text mode. Workfront proof is so much better than emailing massive PDFs around.

Cons

You can make it do almost anything...really, anything. But the question is, "should you?". It's really easy to over-customize. Make sure you have a really good governance plan and stick to it. You need to resist the urge to beat the machine and make it do that thing you "absolutely can't live without", for your project manager's sanity.

### "Easy to manage ongoing sporadic project requests and repeated project requests "

April 13, 2018

5.0

Pros

Creating and managing request queues is excellent, customizable, and great for tracking progress. Personal task tracking is also effective, with the ability to pull reports of task progress/completion for analysis.

Cons

It can be challenging to set up and manage request queues without extensive training. This isn't a major issue but it does limit who can "own" a project/request queue.

### "Workfront has all the bells and whistles"

April 2, 2019

4.0

Being a Mac user, I am accustomed to a more intuitive interface. I would like a simpler model.

Pros

The proofHQ feature is the best feature in my opinion.

Cons

Could be simpler to use. There are so many features that the majority of users will never utilize.
