UI is a struggle for new users UI is a struggle for new users. The tool is designed for project managers, people who understand or who have had formal training in project management. The deal is, the majority of users aren't. They need a simplified version way to manage work, build out timelines, quickly update add remove tasks without have to thing about predecessors or task dependencies, etc.

Love Workfront for waterfall, proofing & Intake - Agile needs work For the most part, Workfront is pretty easy to use. It works well for waterfall projects. Customization is highly flexible (almost TOO customizable)! The reason I gave it 3 stars vs higher marks is due to the limited agile functionality. We are having trouble adapting teams who are used to JIRA to now use Workfront. It's a constant challenge as JIRA users want some of the same function in WF and it's just not there yet. Overall though, Workfront has aided our move from a manual proofing process (sending big PDFs through email) and has helped streamline our intake greatly. Their support & help services are stellar. Lots of training available--be ready to become an SME if you adopt!

Great overall with a few feature limitations Overall, Workfront is great! It is robust enough to meet the changing needs of various teams and workflows. We have queues, project workflows, and approvals all in Workfront which helps us stay in-tune with each other well. The newest interface change is not the best. The wireframe nature of it is a little hard to consume, especially when it comes to comments and update feeds. There are some custom form limitations that I wish were solved, but feature requests are in, so we'll see what happens.

The Updates/commenting system is just… The Updates/commenting system is just rubbish. Why can't we simply see the most recent comment/update at the top of every Project? Why do we have to scroll down through the conversations to GUESS where the latest updates are? Poor.

There have been 3 cases of questions… There have been 3 cases of questions asked by me of the help desk where they have, in my opinion, simply forwarded me an article and left it up to me to figure it out. In all 3 cases, I did that first before I called in. I had to explain that it wasn't solving my problem and I already knew of the article. At one time, I had to insist on being handed over to Level 2 and guess what, Level 2 forwarded me an article.
