"The solution is stable."
"Feature-wise, I would say that its overall ability to be infinitely customizable is valuable...My experience with the support team has been amazing."
"The tool is very user-friendly."
"I can say it is a powerful tool. We have everything in-house in that tool, like, creating reports, dashboards, creating various workflows, and everything we have inside one application."
"Workfront is innovative and these were plenty of features that I found valuable while working at Logitech. Workfront had this feature of Project Schedule Templatization. This saves time and effort and even leads to the standardization of processes that are well-assorted. The Intelligent Graphical Interfaces of Workfront allow one to look at a specific type of resource and a specific phase for a specific family of products. You can get quite granular with the data and even zoom in or out of the timeline. It also categorizes projects according to classes and portfolios so that over time, you can more easily understand what are the various metrics involved in producing a specific portfolio Another important feature is Workfront allowing you to validate milestones and investigate the project. This also helped me to understand which projects are performing well and whether it was beneficial to invest in the same. The IT and the app configuration is quite secure and it is one of the benefits. One more valuable feature is the integration of communication systems inside Workfront. This helps you differentiate between normal business emails and project-specific conversations. This is also known as ‘queues’ and I absolutely find this feature extremely powerful."
"The intake feature is the most valuable in Workfront."
"I also like Workfront's integration. The solution integrates natively with other systems. It's easy to connect Workfront to any product that has a customer service database, such as a CRM or service ticket management solution."
"It has allowed our small team of five to deliver more projects on time and with quality as well as instill trust with clients that their projects do not fall through the cracks."
"I found the task management features as the most useful and necessary."
"You can create a group of tasks and can write down sub-tasks under each task."
"The way it allows our team to communicate with each other and keep each other up to date on many ongoing assignments at once through comments and the subitems feature is very helpful."
"I love how we can color coordinate between statuses and how statuses jump into their respective groups automatically once chosen."
"The feature which I found most valuable is the "My Work" section."
"The most valuable aspect of the solution is the fact that we can make the tool as we want, in the way it is the most useful for us."
"The automation makes moving items around the boards easier and saves us time."
"Sometimes there are glitches when we are reviewing an interactive proof."
"Workfront's reporting capabilities must be improved."
"The solution's visualization feature could be user-friendly."
"The interface can also be customized to fit and accept many tools for better performance and customer service improvement."
"I would say that the stability, honestly, has gone down since the Adobe acquisition, and the quality when they roll out their updates."
"I have used the product and instantiated it, almost seven years back. The process was fairly complex, however, I don't know if they have changed the same now. But this is something I think, if not addressed can be improved. Another area that needs a little attention, is the change of implementation lead. Back when we had Workfront instantiated, we often had our timeline delayed due to the change in the implementation lead. Now Workfront is under Adobe and, in case, this issue, isn't fixed it should be given due attention. Also, Workfront is a universal tool, which can pose a difficulty for small businesses and companies, who don't have the required time, effort, and knowledge to configure it periodically."
"We were having some difficulties creating different kinds of reports and dashboards."
"Our product and graphic designers are working with various Adobe products, but Workfront has a no-frills interface. It's a useful tool with everything we need, but it could be a little more attractive and present information in a polished way. It's a web interface, so it's accessible, but the appearance could be a little slicker."
"The ability to build the dashboard and visualizations out of the data that is in the platform could be better. There are no color themes and no further customization on that front, so you cannot brandify or white label all the platforms to make it look more like your business rather than a generic one."
"Load time and glitches do occur on the site."
"They need to improve the user interface of the automation/integrations."
"We can send emails from monday.com, but when it comes to the format, we don't necessarily want to always have the monday.com logos. We want to be able to make the emails we send out from monday.com, especially if they're coming from a specific person, look like they would if they were coming from our Outlook."
"There are so many bells and whistles that I don't feel like I'm using Monday to its full potential."
"We'd really like to have the ability to have different types of boards within a board."
"One important feature that would help is if you store a file on monday.com and you want to email a message to someone along with that particular file, monday.com does not send the actual attachment, but a link to the file where monday.com has stored it... the link expires after no more than 10 or 15 days."
"There are some small usability issues which can be an inconvenience."
