Iván Fanego - PeerSpot reviewer
Creates customizable systems and improve team collaboration
Notion is a very flexible and customizable platform, allowing users to create whatever they need. The most impactful feature for project management is the ability to invite multiple client stakeholders without complication. Once I understand the basics, it's easy to use despite an initial learning curve. It also significantly improves team collaboration through customized views and visualizations of data.
Awadhesh Singh - PeerSpot reviewer
Easy to tag people and has a form system to collect information but cannot work in multiple channels simultaneously
There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful. Transferring data from one project to another is also difficult. It would be easier to work on parallel tasks across different projects. I've noticed others facing similar issues when I check the chat on their website. The tool should also improve coordination between external stakeholders and collaborators. It should also integrate financial features.

"Notion has very strong integration capabilities."
"The product has a valuable feature for databases. It has a table and a calendar view and saves various documents in the system."

"We utilize time tracking and reports most often."
"This is a good tool for project progress tracking and sharing tasks with internal and external parties."
"In our company, we heavily rely on Wrike. Wrike has helped in communication, managing all sorts of projects and tasks, and having a history of all our correspondence items."
"The most valuable feature of Wrike is the tag functionality."
"The solution is stable and reliable."
"It's a very easy-to-use and flexible tool. We can easily write and create queues for different themes. It's very user-friendly."
"We can easily write down the tasks and reorganize them as well as have a progression index. Wrike offers several views including a kanban view and Gantt chart view."
 

Cons

"It can be difficult to contact the people at Notion."
"Notion's UI needs improvement."
"There are a lot of things, but one thing that is absolutely necessary is the mobile application."
"User management needs improvement."
"Notion's UI could be better."
"User management needs improvement. It's difficult to determine what information is private. It's a bit complicated for me."
"Adding more color options to the application would enhance its usability and flexibility, allowing users to better customize their content"
"Notion has one big downside: the lack of an offline mode. If the internet or Notion's servers are down, I cannot access information. This is a big disadvantage."
"There are several areas where Wrike could improve. First, it doesn't allow accessing multiple channels simultaneously, which would be useful. Transferring data from one project to another is also difficult. It would be easier to work on parallel tasks across different projects. I've noticed others facing similar issues when I check the chat on their website."
"The response from the website is a little bit slow, and the tool is too expensive for a small team."
"The product needs to send direct emails to customers updating the latest aspects since it is better to hear directly."
"It would be great if they could develop more reporting."
"What annoys me with Wrike and things that I would like to improve is that you need to have a very organized workflow that everyone in the company follows, and only then will Wrike work."
"We faced an issue with the Wrike outlook add-on; it is only available for Microsoft Office 365, and not the on-premise version."
"This solution could be improved if we were able to better analyze how the application consumes cloud resources as this can cause a delay in performance."
"We feel that the actual project reports and roll-ups could be a lot different. We are seeking something more for the dashboard. We would like a high-level dashboard that can be broken down into individual product roll-ups and tasks that are assigned. If you assign someone to a task, it assigns them all of the tasks under that. We want to be able to break those down so that a person doesn't have an 800 task list, for example. We want more separation with that and a higher-level dashboard experience."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product has good pricing."
"The solution's pricing can seem steep, especially when you work with a lot of people. If you are working on your own or for another business, the solution's price won't affect you much."
"Notion is free to use."
"I rate the product's pricing a three out of ten. We only need to pay for it if we use it in the workspace."
"I pay around $100 per year."
"The product's pricing depends on the usage plans."
"The product has good pricing."
"Notion offers a free plan that covers most functionalities. Clients are only prompted to upgrade if they require AI capabilities, priced at $10 for unlimited usage, or if they need to add team members, typically around $10 per member."
"Wrike is expensive."
"From a pricing perspective, I would rate Wrike a four out of five."
"Wrike is not so expensive, but I don't know exactly how it compares with other tools. Wrike might not be so cheap when we are using it for a lot of users."
"Wrike is very expensive, and its price is almost $1,400."
