What do you like best about Wrike?
Coming from a setup where we had very little structure, Wrike has truly been a game changer. It has transformed the way our team collaborates, plans, and executes projects. Before Wrike, keeping track of tasks and responsibilities felt chaotic—but now, everything is streamlined, organized, and clearly visible to everyone involved.
One of the biggest advantages for me personally is that I no longer need to rely on memory or scattered notes. Everything I need is documented in Wrike, which has made managing my workload significantly easier. I can plan ahead, track progress, and stay on top of deadlines with the help of automated email reminders for upcoming tasks.
It’s also a huge relief knowing that if I take leave, my colleagues can pick up right where I left off. The transparency Wrike provides means the entire team—and especially our boss—can see task developments in real time. This makes it easier for our manager to provide support when needed and for everyone to stay aligned on goals and priorities.
Another major benefit is how Wrike enables full team involvement in ongoing projects. We’re all on the same page, which has drastically improved communication and efficiency. Planning for the future is also much simpler now, as we can clearly see workloads and adjust accordingly.
Without all these features, my job would have been much harder, and honestly, I doubt I would’ve been able to complete the amount of work I have in the timeframe that I did.

What do you dislike about Wrike?
While I’ve had a really positive experience with Wrike overall, there are a few areas where I’ve faced some challenges.
To be clear, I’m far from a power user—I use Wrike primarily for its simplicity in documentation and project management, which suits my needs perfectly. That said, I know there are many features I’m not fully taking advantage of yet, and I do think with some extra time or training, I could get even more out of the platform.
The main difficulties I’ve had are:
Understanding the layout: At times, I find the navigation and structure a bit overwhelming. It can take me a while to find what I need, especially when switching between different views or folders.
Task tracking: With the number of tasks I now have (many with similar names that repeat every few months), it’s easy to lose track or accidentally focus on the wrong one.
Copying or duplicating work: This is one of the bigger pain points for me. When I try to duplicate a project or set of tasks, the dates carry over in a way that doesn’t quite suit the flexible nature of my work. Because I don’t complete the same tasks in the exact same order every time, I have to manually remove and reset the dates, which slows me down.
Despite these issues, none of them are deal-breakers. They’re more like areas where Wrike could improve or where I could improve how I use it. Overall, I’m still very happy with the product and what it’s helped me accomplish.
