How Alternatives Are Selected

1. monday.com

4.5

With an Enterprise contract, working with this vendor has been a truly exceptional experience. The dedication from our Enterprise Account Manager and our Customer Success Workflow Expert makes clear that they value our business and want to provide us with the tools and methodologies we need to implement their platform in ways that are catered to our use cases and, most importantly, our desired outcomes. The platform itself is incredible. Our Enterprise plan is remarkably versatile. So much that teams I work with that do not have a collaborative work management system in place are blown away by its capabilities.Read all insights and reviews for monday.com

2. Asana

4.6

Asana is SUCH a workhorse if you put the time and energy in. I've led industry workshops on how to use it for different things and we've solved nearly all of our remote workforce management issues using it. We manage everything from onboarding and offboarding to customer service requests to marketing campaigns to accountability of communications you can't get anywhere else. People are SUPER motivated to get their unicorn to fly off the screen and it is both as high level and as granular as you need it to be. The customization features are second to none and integrate beautifully across our entire expansive ecosystem. It's eliminated internal email for us completely, scaling communications to be unobtrusive and accountable. Nobody misses a deadline without noticing, and we say if it's not in Asana, you're not accountable for it. Using the free platform is a great way to dip your toe in, but as you get larger, the cost for additional licenses is not so prohibitive if you don't give all the admin tools to all of your employees. We bring in guest consultants and manage their workloads through there as well. You can have multiple Asana workplaces so organize your personal life AND your worklife from the same window! It integrates beautifully into Google workplace and with the addition of Flowsana there are so many automations that mean my team stays lean, inspired, and effective. There's robust reporting tools as well - you can build your own at-a-glance charts to share with your teams and set KPI goals and truly track them. We have eliminated meeting length by having employees report weekly in their dedicated portfolio and it ties to the KPIs while also showing trend of on track, at risk, etc so managers and users can see risk of falling behind, burnout, and more.

4. Wrike

4.2

**Update Nov 2025: Wrike has shown such growth from when I first started using it 2 years ago. There have been leaps and bounds made to bring in new AI features, more community support, more frequent updates, and more! My experience with Wrike has been nothing but positive since learning it about a year and a half ago. It's one of those products where you learn a little more each day as you delve into projects and tasks. I had never used it prior to my current role and I was pretty quick to adapt to it. We scaled Wrike to our global Marketing team, comprised of internal and external collaborators. It's been a little tricky to get everyone to use it the same way, but we've recently set up our tasks and projects to be shared cross-functionally to allow for multiple users on different teams to collaborate on various marketing efforts. We also work closely with our CSM in monthly meetings and bimonthly presentations with key users from each team to share knowledge, inspire everyone, and allow for a space to ask questions.Read all insights and reviews for Wrike

5. Airtable

4.6

I started using Airtable almost two years ago. The major use case was content map management. We had built an extensive content map with hundreds of entries, and we needed to update them, assign tasks to writers and editors, manage content categories, accept content ideas from other teams, and do more in one tool. With Airtable, doing all these tasks was easy. It's more than spreadsheets - it's also a database for collaboration, tracking, and reporting. Read all insights and reviews for Airtable

6. ClickUp

4.3

Clickup is a pretty versatile program that I have added to my tech stack along with other apps to manage programs, teams, communication, and overall projects. There are a lot of features, but I have found myself using Clickup for collaboration, document sharing, and reporting. It really helps you coordinate a lot of moving pieces.

7. Jira

4.5

I use Jira almost daily as a contributor for my team. The tool is good at allowing me to track my tasks, when they are due, and where they sit in the sprint, which saves me time trying to find all of the items in my queue. It provides a central space where all tasks across all teams are kept, which makes it easy for everyone to see where the project is at. Overall, my experience with Jira has been positive and we've used it for many years now. Read all insights and reviews for Jira

8. Workfront

4.4

The migration from our old project management system tricky was more intensive than expected. Overall it's a good product, there's just a few nuances that are requiring us to get additional developer help, because the "out-of-the-box" functionality wasn't enough to get to our desired end state. But, with training, both administrators and end-users are using the platform accordingly.Read all insights and reviews for Workfront
