    Considered Both Products

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    It's been a while since I've used another time and resource management platform, but I would say that Adobe Workfront takes the cake. Its newly refreshed user interface is simple to navigate, whereas other platforms can be quite confusing when "drilling down" on a project. …

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Adobe is very intuitive in its workflow automation and creation of the task workflows that can be used as templates for employees. That is harder to create in Teams unless there is [the] integration of another Microsoft product and more time spent on it by an IT professional. …

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Workfront has better integration into the tools we use, like Adobe Creative Suite, Outlook, Salesforce, and our CMS and DAM. We needed a solution that could work well with our MarCOMM Stack and didn't need a whole lot of support. Although we're a small shop (license-wise) …

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    JIRA and Clarizen were too complicated and did not offer an integrated document review and proofing system.
    Microsoft Project did not handle multiple small projects and resource allocation as well.
    Smartsheet was too limited for large teams and required too much manual work.

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Workfront was hands down our choice. It seemed to have the most streamlined processes and capabilities.

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Multilingual support, all work in the same place! Document repository. The decisition on selecting the tool was very easy knowing we are located in a remote country. Automate workflow processes across the enterprise, ease of use. Prioritize requests, keep people on the same …

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    We selected in the end Workfront over the other PM tools evaluated due to ease of use for the levels of our users, capacity planning options and good value for the price it has. Also now that is has support and online training included in the price it an easy way to manage the …

    Better overall functionality. More expensive, but worth it.

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Workfront beats them all hands down. Asana was too simplistic for our needs, Wrike was very clunky and didn't handle the finances very well. Clarizen didn't have document approvals and collaboration that we needed. Workfront was a great mix of ease of use, complexity, and …

    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Clarizen is another great option and offer a much more flexible solution.
    Chose Adobe Workfront
    Clarizen seemed to provide roughly the same product. They quoted a bit more expensive, and not many improvements. The implementation cost was not worth it. AtTask also did a better job at Gantt Charts for each project rather than just 1 for all projects in Clarizen, which was …
    Planview
    Chose Planview AdaptiveWork
    Clarizen's ease of use, ease of setup, out-of-the-box delivery, project management, and time management were the factors for choosing Clarizen. All were good products but we are happy to have selected Clarizen.

    Chose Planview AdaptiveWork
    AtTask, EPM Live, CorasWorks

    There were many different reasons why we chose Clarizen but ease of use, functionality and price and adaptability were our top reasons.
