Unsere Bewertungsmethodik

Wie wir Tools testen & bewerten

Wir haben jahrelang unser System zur Softwareüberprüfung und -bewertung aufgebaut, verfeinert und verbessert. Das Bewertungsschema wurde entwickelt, um die Feinheiten der Softwareauswahl und die Effektivität eines Tools einzufangen, wobei der Fokus auf den entscheidenden Aspekten des Entscheidungsprozesses liegt. Unten sehen Sie genau, wie unser Test- und Bewertungssystem über sieben Kriterien hinweg funktioniert. So können wir eine objektive Einschätzung der Software auf Grundlage von Kernfunktionen, herausragenden Merkmalen, Benutzerfreundlichkeit, Onboarding, Kundenservice, Integrationen, Kundenbewertungen und Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis bieten.

Kernfunktionalität (25% der Gesamtbewertung)

Ausgangspunkt unserer Bewertung ist immer die Kernfunktionalität des Tools. Hat es die grundlegenden Funktionen, die ein Nutzer erwarten würde? Sind einige dieser Kernfunktionen nur in höherpreisigen Tarifen verfügbar? Wir erwarten, dass ein Tool mindestens den grundlegenden Leistungsumfang seiner Mitbewerber erfüllt.

Herausragende Funktionen (25% der Gesamtbewertung)

Anschließend bewerten wir außergewöhnliche Funktionen, die über die üblichen Kernfunktionen hinausgehen. Eine hohe Bewertung spiegelt spezialisierte oder einzigartige Eigenschaften wider, durch die das Produkt schneller, effizienter oder für den Nutzer besonders wertvoll wird. Wir bewerten auch, wie einfach sich das Tool in andere Tools integrieren lässt, die üblicherweise im Tech-Stack zu finden sind, um die Funktionalität zu erweitern. Lösungen mit vielen nativen Integrationen, Drittanbieter-Anbindungen und API-Zugang zur Erstellung individueller Verknüpfungen schneiden am besten ab.

Benutzerfreundlichkeit (10% der Gesamtbewertung)

Wir berücksichtigen, wie schnell und einfach sich die Aufgaben – basierend auf der Kernfunktionalität – mit dem Tool erledigen lassen. Eine hohe Bewertung erhalten Tools, die durchdacht gestaltet und intuitiv bedienbar sind, mobile Apps und Vorlagen bieten und sogar komplexe Aufgaben einfach erscheinen lassen.

Onboarding (10% der Gesamtbewertung)

Wir wissen, wie wichtig eine schnelle Einführung im Team ist, und bewerten deshalb, wie leicht ein Tool mit minimaler Schulung erlernt und genutzt werden kann. Wir prüfen, wie schnell neue Teammitglieder ohne Vorkenntnisse starten können. Lösungen, die wenig oder gar keine Unterstützung erfordern, erhalten die höchste Bewertung.

Kundenservice (10% der Gesamtbewertung)

Wir überprüfen, wie schnell und unkompliziert Hilfe per Telefon, Live-Chat oder Wissensdatenbank verfügbar ist. Tools und Unternehmen, die Echtzeit-Support bieten, schneiden am besten ab; Chatbots am schlechtesten.

Kundenbewertungen (10% der Gesamtbewertung)

Neben unseren eigenen Tests beziehen wir auch den Net Promoter Score aktueller und ehemaliger Nutzer ein. Wir prüfen die Wahrscheinlichkeit, mit der sie das Tool erneut für die Kernfunktionalitäten wählen würden. Ein hohes Ergebnis spiegelt einen hohen Net Promoter Score bei aktuellen oder früheren Kund:innen wider.

Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis (10% der Gesamtbewertung)

Abschließend vergleichen wir – unter Berücksichtigung aller anderen Kriterien – den Durchschnittspreis der Einstiegstarife mit den Kernfunktionen und bewerten das Preis-Leistungs-Verhältnis. Software, die mehr Leistung für weniger Geld bietet, bekommt die höchsten Werte.

Core Features

Custom Workflows

Task Dependencies

Link tasks to visualize and control project sequences. Prevent bottlenecks by ensuring work starts only when prerequisites are complete.

Dynamic Request Forms

Ease of Use

Its drag-and-drop functionality and clear layout help you organize tasks efficiently within a shared workspace, including visual kanban boards and Gantt charts. However, some users find the extensive features overwhelming initially. Once you get the hang of it, the customizable workflows and dashboards make managing projects intuitive. It's a solid choice if you're ready to invest a bit of time to unlock its full potential.

Integrations

Wrike integrates with Microsoft Teams, Google Drive, Salesforce, Slack, Jira, Adobe Creative Cloud, Dropbox, Box, Outlook, and Zoom, among others.

Wrike also offers an open API and connects with third-party integration tools like Zapier for expanded connectivity.
