Workzone Reviews & Product Details

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.

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.

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.

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.

Workzone is a well known cloud-based project management solution whose approach is based on document management and collaboration, in terms of its strengths as a software we can say that it has different tools that allow the user to create projects, assign tasks and share files within a cloud-based platform, this helps improve the workflow of request and approval another point that I consider really positive in this software is how it organizes each project so that you can see who is responsible for each project, due date of each project and also makes the outstanding projects that are overdue are very noticeable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workzone is an extremely brilliant software however when you go deeper in its functions you can notice that it still has some deficiencies that I hope will improve in the future like for example its interface which is not very fluid and its design is not very eye-catching but nevertheless it fulfills its function, those projects that are delayed by a task are affected as a whole and the independent tasks that were done on time are still affected, Workzone also has a deficiency in advanced accounting or budgeting functions and finally the local implementation is not available Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

How rapid it is to set up projects and areas for new clients - it feels like you can genuinely "spin up" a new area of your Workzone instance rather than having to set aside significant amounts of time - flexible and efficient. Most of all, I really like that it works on mobile and desktop - I've tracked time when I've been at my desk, and I've reviewed Workzone comments and time tracking when I'm on the move - that's invaluable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I have had the occasional loading bug, and I'd like to be able to "pin" tasks to time tracking pages. Most of all I do experience some issues when it comes to navigation - sometimes clicking on a task takes me to the time tracking page for it rather than the task's location in the project tree - sometimes the reverse, and it is not always clear which one I am going to get. Perhaps there could be a button or a clear method for navigating to whichever one of the two you actually need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The resource management support of the workzone program, presents failures in its data mobilization, where many of the data collected by the software can not be transferred to other digital systems, disabling the options of information transfer, making the company can not have levels of acquisition of work routes and transfer of professional domain foundations of user recruitment, due to this problem must be established digital enhancement parameters to find the error hosted in the program. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The vast amount of information available is a benefit for those who need it. Account managers will absolutely benefit from having a thousand-foot view of all projects at any given time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

While Workzone offers a robust view of all tasks occurring across the company, it's difficult for individual users to set up a view that works for them based on the limited scope they need. For example, if a designer simply has a weekly task that they need to access for a client, it can feel frustrating to have to dig into the entire client's page and filter down to the project they need to locate. If you need to access past projects that have been marked at complete, it can be nearly impossible to locate them because of the sheer volume of projects at your fingertips. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easily upload files, reassign tasks, view current workflow and tag other users. The function to markup items and approve/not approve work can be a bit clunky at times, depending how the team uses it, but it's better than not having the option. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It can be difficult to reassign tasks to new users who are not currently assigned to the project. This involves a bit of backtracking to add them to the workspace and then continue with the project set up. If you're not currently in a project but receive a link to a task, you may receive an error message. I wish this function would instead give the reason and the option to request access. I find the mobile version difficult to use, but I turn to mobile so infrequently, it's really a non-issue for my work purposes. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like that it sends you emails every morning with the tasks that are due! This is seriously so helpful in keeping me on track with my work. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don’t like that it’s so hard to filter down and just look at the projects I’ve created. The FULL projects, not just the tasks with my name on them. For example, if I filter by my name, but want to add A new task for myself, I can click add new task, but then it immediately goes invisible because it is not yet assigned to me. Then I have to go up and re-filter by the name of the project, find the new task, assign it to myself, then go back to filtering by me to see it within the grand scheme of all my projects. Wish there was an easier way to do this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Workzone is a great project management software for collaboration among teams. It is robust and easy to use. It works well for decentralized teams as it is cloud-hosted. Another thing I like most about Workzone is their exemplary customer support. With Workzone, you can easily monitor the progress of your project. The automatic email reminders about priority project tasks to team members is also a nice feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I haven't found major weakness so far in my experience using Workzone Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I liked how there was a workzone person who helped integrate the program into our workflow. That was very helpful being able to talk to someone about the program and learn more. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I disliked how difficult the program was to use. There were many button clicks that had to occur before you could get to a certain place and overall the organization of where things were did not make sense. This has been my least favorite project management software I have used. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The client support from the WorkZone group has been the factor that made this undertaking the executives framework work for our association. From conceptualizing answers for our issues to tuning in to input on recommended highlights, their neighborly and positive assistance set them apart from each other framework we have utilized or researched. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our association completes a great deal of undertakings that have simultaneous assignments, are self-made and in this way have no required due dates, or are battles with a few unmistakable tasks. WorkZone is intended for concrete, successive, time-bound undertakings that are straight in nature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is a very practical and manageable platform, it gives you different functions to handle new projects in a very practical and dynamic way, besides it offers modules of training to learn to manage in a more practical way platform, managing to improve the performance and execution of the new projects Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

in fact I have not yet found a negative aspect that I can mention about this tool since its functions are so practical and easy to handle, I would say that the only inconvenience I have had is with the planning of the new tasks Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

it's a great program, Honestly, I can't think of much I don't like about Workzone Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Email notification of To-Do list.

Tracking of individual projects.

Color code notification. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

No graphical presentation of work distribution. 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. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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.

I like being able to have a variety of templates so each project type can be created easily. And, I like being able to add/remove steps in the process and extend a workflow as the scope of the project changes or revisions are needed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Sometimes the contingencies make getting the ideal date to line up tricky within a complex workflow. And, I would like for closed projects to 'reopen' automatically if new tasks are added. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I like the fact that we can personalize requests based on specific projects, allowing us to get the information we need up front. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish we could edit the "Requested Deadline" header in the top of the forms section. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that the software is so intuitive. Most things can be figured out with very little training. Because it's available online, it's always accessible and most importantly all of our tasks and associated files are kept together with each job. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hard to say what I dislike as we use this everyday. I guess the reports the software generates could be better. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
