### "Couldn't do my job without it!"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Pros

Workfront enables me to manage all my tasks as well as my teams with ease. I love the ability to review and approve all aspects of a project from beginning to end in one product.

Cons

It's sometimes buggy, but I can usually find the reason for error by searching the community.

### "Could use some refinement"

December 15, 2018

3.0

Overall, this is a fine project management tool that would benefit from some refinement to wrangle user options.

Pros

Online proofing markup system. Project organization, management, and status updates. Direct communication with managers, etc. File sharing. Job history and archiving.

Cons

A little clunky and possibly confusing. Some users input task information in the "Notes" section instead of marking-up the proofs. Important info can be overlooked this way, causing errors and misunderstandings. Also, some comments appear as tasks when there is no further work to be done.

### "Kevin's review as a superuser"

May 7, 2019

4.0

Pros

Functionality - intake queue, custom forms, permission structures customizable

Cons

Architecture - the object structure - portfolio, program, project, task, issue, etc. gets cumbersome and does not allow for functionality to strategically evolve for an enterprise organization

### "Adobe workfront"

December 20, 2022

4.0

Pros

All the information is live so they are able to stay on task and update if there are any changes made at anytime. Workfront can handle a large company which helps as we grow the business to have a tool we won’t grow out of

Cons

Trouble with what task is linked to a project there is no clear way to tell. Confusion with how to do some actions on this system and setting up is time consuming

### "Full of function. Not always intuitive."

November 22, 2019

4.0

Workfront is great for content and task management, time management, and teams with multi-function projects.

Pros

Workfront is the most robust content management platform I've used. It's full of features and functionality not found in Basecamp, Trello, etc. The timelines, tasks, and time management are all helpful features.

Cons

I'd say I'm pretty competent when it comes to learning software, but Workfront is intense. Our company has point-people to help employees, but I come across a question every day, if not multiple times a day. Task progression is not intuitive.

### "Let Workfront do the heavy lifting"

May 7, 2019

5.0

We've solved many business and operational problems with Workfront in marketing.

Pros

So many manual processes can be streamlined and even automated to help your team work smarter.

Cons

The huge amount of flexibility can introduce different ways of working when you really need stronger governance.

### "Slow out the gates but it's got stamina"

May 7, 2019

4.0

We have a disparate group of IT users who've, over time, grown accustomed to managing their project how in unique ways. We wanted to drive adoption towards an organizational system of record, introduce better governance practices, evolve our project delivery practice and mechanism and introduce demand and capacity management with the Resource Planning tool. We've seen many short term successes and have seen the tool rise to meet our needs. I'm stoked about our organization's Workfront future.

Pros

The features and the continuous improvement of the product based on user feedback.

Cons

A lot of the great features and functionality are buried behind a clunky (but constantly improving) interface.

### "Get stuff done!"

December 2, 2018

3.0

Pros

Solid basics of project management yet flexbile enough to become the tool you need when you need it.

It would be fantastic if there was a timer to start and stop while working on a project.

### "Great Cloud-Based Project Management Solution"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Overall, positive experience!

Pros

I like the configurability of the solution. The system can be customized to allow for unique project builds with a robust reporting capability.

Cons

Usernames must be unique for the platform; only an issue with users that access multiple platforms.

### "Workfront helps you get your work done and keeps your team working together!"

May 7, 2015

5.0

Pros: I like that Workfront is cloud based and very easy to use. Workfront provides collaboration on projects which is critical to a projects success. Workfront gives everyone high level visibility in their projects down to the smallest detail. No more spreadsheets for me! Before purchasing Workfront, I reviewed about ten project management systems and Workfront was the only project management tool that could do what we needed. Very easy to use and the customer service & support is excellent. I use the reporting on a daily basis to give an overview of all project timelines so that they stay on schedule and meet the production completion date. Cons: I really have nothing that I dislike about Workfront. They are improving the application throughout the year with maintenance updates and system upgrades. You also have an opportunity to submit a product idea to Workfront, once reviewed it could be implemented in their next upgrade.

5.0

Pros

I enjoy Workfront as it is a very flexible and user friendly tool that allows me to work from anywhere in the globe. Mobile app is also very user friendly and fast.

The software needs to be able to do a better job tracking hours against allocated hours in budget.

### "Great work management for small and large enterprises"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Pros

The flexibility of the software enables us to structure work as appropriate for the organization, which varies from large to small enterprises.

Cons

The fact that there are so many different ways to do the same things can be intimidating if you don't enforce standards.

### "Workfront for Work Managment"

May 7, 2019

5.0

Our organization has been using Workfront for about 6 months and it seems the more we learn about the capabilities the more we have to learn about the product

Pros

Helps to create collaboration with other departments. It helps our organization with project projects more accurately.

Cons

Would like it to be more user friendly when users are reviewing proofs. They don't readily know what projects the proofs are for.

Reason for choosing Adobe Workfront

This product was the best at integrating projects with other departments. It also was great at mapping out critical paths for projects.

### "The most efficient project management system"

December 9, 2022

5.0

We wanted to use this software to support our project management procedure and to inform and coordinate the work of numerous stakeholders. The configuration of this product enables better project handling and management. To view the progress of projects and report to stakeholders, Workfront creates a snapshot of all your projects in one location, allowing you to know where all your tasks are and who is being evaluated.

Pros

\-It is an easy to use program-Produces a professional end product-Uploading and downloading documents is simple-The ability to customize and create user-friendly dashboards

Cons

\-A bit expensive for a small business-It often takes many clicks to get to a site-You have to prepare an entire other folder or archive for placing closed projects

### "The software enables me to see everything I want to see, all in one place."

May 17, 2017

5.0

Pros

Easy to use and intuitive. great customer support and immediate response if I have a problem. This is then followed up with emails. all in all, I am very happy with this software and support.

Cons

hard to find something I don't like, but error messages don't explain well enough what I have done wrong!! this is common with software, so is not an isolated problem, but is frustrating. Ideally it would code the error but then tell you how to put it right.

### "Workfront helped make virtual work easier"

January 12, 2023

5.0

Workfront works really well as a tool to receive and assign work. It’s also great for telework and virtual collaboration. I just wish it was a bit more intuitive!

Pros

The ability to receive work, assign work, and make requests easily. This simple but critical function has been doubly helpful since I started working from home.

Cons

It was a bit hard to get used to at first. My first exposure to Workfront came at a time when I started collaborating a lot with a department that wasn’t my own. They assigned me work and, when I needed something, told me to ask via Workfront. I didn’t know what I was doing and believe more prompts from the software itself could have made my experience smoother.

### "Great for large corporations "

February 26, 2023

4.0

Pros

The ability to store and share projects. Also can move to PowerPoint. Keep everyone in the loop and everything is dated. Offers an accurate forecasting option

Cons

The cost. I feel this app was designed for larger businesses. If they could scale everything back it would be great for smaller ones.

December 27, 2022

業務フローが簡潔簡略化できて無駄が少なくなった

Pros

リモートワークの導入が増える中、業務の分散化が進んでいます。そのような中でも業務が効率的になります。メールでのやりとりを最小限にして、統括的な作業が可能です。

Cons

しいていうなら、価格をもう少々抑えられるならば、より導入後の維持がしやすいだろう。

Pros

This software helps us manage and run projects successfully and helps connect our teams!

There are a lot of options within Workfront to customize but then areas that seem they SHOULD be customized but are not. For example - status (At Risk/In Trouble)

### "Great customization"

May 7, 2019

Overall I think it's a great platform for project and task management.

Pros

If you have the ability to utilize the full API with custom development, the possibilities and customizations are endless.

Cons

The API Explorer is very poorly written and hard to use for a new developer.

### "Good tool with lots of room for improvement"

May 7, 2019

4.0

Pros

The interface has improved significantly over the years and has become more user friendly.

Cons

On some days it operates very clunky, and a refresh is often needed to show tasks properly (e.g., when a task is moved in the project schedule by drag and drop).
