Wrike suits agencies that have outgrown simple boards and need structure for incoming requests and approvals. The Team plan, at $10 per user a month for 2 to 15 users, includes interactive Gantt charts, shareable dashboards and AI essentials such as comment summaries and automation rule generation. Business, at $25 per user a month for 5 to 200 users, adds templates for repeatable workflows and a starter pack of AI agent actions. The agency finance features are on Pinnacle, which is priced on request: budgets for projects, portfolios and clients based on team member or job role bill and cost rates, advanced resource and capacity planning, time tracking capabilities and BI reporting. That split is the main drawback, since the features that tie work to margin cost the most. Wrike also takes more configuration than monday.com or Asana.
