Adobe Workfront could improve its interface, which may benefit from an overhaul for better consistency between the web interface and the API. The current setup was not originally designed API-first, leading to some confusion and differences in available functions. Additionally, the low-code environment in Workfront Fusion is beneficial yet sometimes limiting, and it might be more powerful with enhancements.
Sometimes, new users find it a bit difficult to handle Adobe Workfront. From an administrator's point of view, the documentation could be improved so that people understand it. Adobe made some improvements by updating the old documentation with new ones. Since the data is distributed across multiple places, it's really hard for the new learner to access it.
There are a few improvements needed in Adobe Workfront. Previously, while I was working with the tool, we worked on it around 2020 and 2021. We were having some difficulties creating different kinds of reports and dashboards. There was some issue because of which we could not create the reporting the way we were looking for, or the way we can create a report in Power BI or Tableau. Now they have created some in-built connectors like Power BI. They are working and improving the application. To make my life easier, I would like Adobe to work on the dashboard. At this point, we cannot create a report. We do not have many options. Let's say if I'm creating any dashboard, we face some limitations. They have introduced Power BI, so Adobe should work on the dashboard and reporting parts. Most people would like to see the visualization of data and not the exact raw data. Visualization of data can be helpful for people and for the business.
Workfront comes with some native integrations with Teams, SharePoint, Microsoft Office, Jira, and Salesforce. We can establish connections with such third-party applications using simple settings and without coding knowledge. However, this functionality offers very limited features and should be improved. Workfront's reporting capabilities must be improved. Although they claimed to completely update the reporting experience by designing a dashboard, it's been a while since they did. Currently, we can see very limited options on the home screen of Workfront. They should provide an option to navigate from the Workfront home screen to different third-party websites our clients use, like Jira or SharePoint.

The current version has great and powerful features. I have not experienced any performance problems from the operation of this platform. I have no complaints so far. However, they could improve on the speed of the product. The interface can also be customized to fit and accept many tools for better performance and customer service improvement. The current technology and system plan implementation could boost service delivery. The overall performance in our company has been awesome. Management of our resources is more secure under Workfront.
