Free

Wrike’s free plan is an ideal option for solopreneurs, for teams just getting started or small teams that do not need robust project management software. The free plan centralizes task management into one space. An unlimited number of users can organize their projects with interactive Kanban boards, spreadsheets and tables. Managers can break large goals into small actionable items and assign those tasks to various team members.

This plan works well for collaboration as team members can see what their teammates are working on with account-wide work schedules. Users can also tap into the artificial intelligence (AI) features, such as AI recommended tasks and AI subtask creation.

The software can be accessed using web, desktop and mobile apps and integrates with popular software, such as Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive. The plan does limit storage to 2 GB storage space per account and applies task limitations.

Professional

Small teams that need more collaboration tools can start with the Professional plan. Designed for fast-growing teams who are interested in project planning and team collaboration, the plan is $9.80 per user, per month. In addition to all the features in the free plan, the Professional plan also includes shareable dashboards to help teams maximize productivity and enhance visibility with customizable dashboards for projects, tasks and files.

This plan also unlocks the interactive Gantt charts that help teams visualize processes and identify bottlenecks with the drag-and-drop interface, manage multiple projects with critical path analysis, snapshots and baselining and create dependencies. The prebuilt project management dashboards that come with this plan help teams deliver projects on time and within budget using a detailed overview of progress at an individual, team and department level. The dashboards can be custom built for your team and project and shared instantly with all members of the team.

Business

The Business plan is designed for all teams across an organization. According to Wrike’s website, this is the company’s most popular plan. At $24.80 per user, per month, this plan steps up customization a notch with customizable fields, workflows and item types along with branded workspaces. This plan also introduces calendar views. Designed to provide 360-degree visibility on all projects the calendar view helps teams plan projects more accurately, coordinate team schedules and create stakeholder visibility.

This tier also adds a time tracking feature and online proofing software. The time tracking tool helps teams log worked hours automatically, track employee time and focus on billable hours. Time tracking increases accountability and streamlines forecasting by giving employers an accurate view of how much time is spent on certain projects or tasks. The online proofing software helps teams centralize feedback on projects, automate approvals and decrease the time it takes to collaborate with all the project’s shareholders.

Add-on capabilities for premium features are only available for the Business, Enterprise and Pinnacle levels. Premium features, such as Wrike Marketing Insights, Write Integrate and Wrike Two-Way Sync (Jira & GitHub) can be added to higher-ranking plans for an additional fee.

Enterprise

Enterprise was created for large teams to upgrade security and scalability. Public pricing is not available for the Enterprise plan, so potential buyers must talk to a sales rep to get a quote. Key security features that are included in this plan are single sign-on (SSO), two-factor identification (2FA), password policies, custom access roles and admin permissions. For an additional fee, this tier unlocks Wrike Lock which enables companies the power to control access to their Wrike data by managing their own encryption keys.

Pinnacle

Pinnacle is available for teams that need advanced tools and analytics for complex needs. As with Enterprise, the pricing for this plan is not available to the public. Pinnacle’s biggest draw is its advanced resources and capacity planning. Features include a team performance dashboard that provides valuable insights on planned vs. actual billable hours of individuals and teams over time, the ability to assign team members jobs roles to streamline work allotment and resources booking that estimates project-level efforts by team members or job roles.

The plan also includes locked spaces for executive-level team members to collaborate in a secured space confidently. Locked spaces can also be used to create isolated working spaces for separate customers.


Wrike Alternatives

While Wrike is a strong project management tool, it is not an ideal match for every company. In our review of the best project management software, we noted that monday.com is the best project management software for startups on a tight budget. One reason for this is the fact monday.com’s free version is so robust it could fit the needs of many small businesses. The free version allows users to create custom boards using more than 200 templates and unlimited documents. Monday.com’s free plan also allows for customizable email notifications that help team members save time and remain focused on work by choosing which email type (if any) is allowed in their inbox.

Asana is another strong alternative to Wrike. Asana is best for teams looking to coordinate across departments because project managers are allowed to assign tasks to specific team members while also breaking those tasks into subtasks to be assigned to different team members. Another big plus is the fact that all of Asana’s plans, including its basic free plan, come with unlimited storage while even Wrike’s paid plans have a storage limit.

Bottom Line

Wrike is a great project management software to help companies organize their teams. No matter the size of the company or how complex its needs are, with five unique plans, Wrike has a plan for everyone.
