    Wrike is nice, but not nearly as nice as Basecamp, although Wrike does have a free account to try it out. They also have non-profit discounts, which Basecamp doesn't have.

    Comparatively, Basecamp has been found to be the easiest to use and onboard new users. Additionally the cost model for our organisation is much lower on Basecamp compared to the competition.

    Basecamp is perfect for small-time collaboration. It's suited for projects that need organization but not granular detail. When you need more than a simple little bit of help, you'll be looking at other solutions at that point. Very straight forward and to the point but that is …

    Overall, it is very similar to Asana more so than Basecamp. The concept is really similar. The difference is I've been able to dive much deeper into Wrike and utilizing the task features where for Asana for me was much more for casual and personal use rather than corporate. But …

    So Wrike is a great blend of the functionality of Basecamp and Trello. Basecamp is a good time/date stamp on messaging internally and externally. Trello is a slick way to drag and drop tasks in a workflow and to check them off when they are complete. Both of the competitors …

    Wrike is eons better than Advantage, and would be my preference over Basecamp as well. However, I did enjoy Salesforce in that it had many automations in place, was used as our CRM, and had the ability to make project trees - yet it did not have as much customization at the …

    While the UI may not be the most modern Wrike's flexibility and ability to integrate with other tools sold us in the long run. The ability to plug in directly with Integrate and access Wrike's API allows us to have everything flow through a single point.

    It is easier to search and find the correct project and you can create versions of files and images. You can see the changes you requested from version 1 to version N. The view to the project is a folder with task inside.

    Except Todoist, which is more geared toward a personal to do list (rather than team project management), every other similar product I've used is better than Wrike in every way. They're all more user friendly and intuitive and easier to visualize project progress.

    Trello in my opinion is the easiest for me because everything is columnized. I want the ability to see the full scope of a project on 1 single page. I have to go to different pages for different tasks and all pages look similar. For me it's a UI problem. Dummy it up a bit.

    We use Paychex Flex for PTO, holiday pay, bereavement, and time off requests. We also use other programs for travel expenses, flights, car rentals, and per diem, such as Emburse Tallie. Wrike is very user-friendly in comparison to other programs I have used.
