Workfront Likes & Dislikes
It gives teams one place to manage projects, timelines, and communication. It makes it mcuh easier to stay organized, track progress, and keep work moving forward.
The Kanban boards are a newer feature that is a welcome addition for me because this is the way I want to work. The ability to pin my most used views is handy, and it's good that the pins are anchored to the top of my view in every screen. The search is improved from previous versions and can surface the result I'm looking for given even a partial match in what I search for.
I like how everyone involved in the project can mark up the creative, and designers can submit as many versions as needed without any confusion. The ability to go back and check versions is great too to make sure everything was captured or to see where the changes occurred.
It can feel overly complex at times, especially for new users or simple projects. Some tasks take more steps than expected, which can slow things down.
Does Adobe have reps? I've been at three different companies that have implemented Workfront and all three had unhelpful onboarding support if any. In the most recent implementation, we hired a third party vendor to assist with setup and implementation. There are so many different sections and the system is conducive to tons of tasks and line items within a project that navigating all of it to find documents or comments is difficult. I think it's supposed to be easier for projects with a lot of activity, but even in that scenario, I struggle to find what I'm looking for.
I dislike the lock feature on it, but I guess is necessary to make sure everyone gets their work before starting to comment on it.

Complex Interface May Challenge Users Despite Recent Feature Improvements in Workfront
Workfront is feature-packed at the expense of an intuitive and easy to learn user experience. Even when becoming more familiar with the UI, it still feels unnecessarily complex and difficult to navigate. It seems designed for teams that work under a waterfall methodology, although as a previous user they have added some features that better support an agile methodology. However, there are other tools designed for an agile methodology that support that style of working much better than Workfront. - Marketing Manager<50M USDRetailReview Source
