What it is
Adobe Workfront is paid work management software for planning, tracking, and managing work across teams and departments. Workfront Planning links planning with execution records and provides shareable calendar and timeline views. Teams can handle project intake, requests, custom forms, and agile or hybrid work. Templates standardize projects, while review-stage automation and process automations can be built without a developer team. Digital proofing and approval workflows support reviews, including Frame.io integration. Dashboards and report widgets provide reporting, with exports to data lakes or business-intelligence tools. Adobe integrations include Experience Manager Assets, Creative Cloud, Adobe Express, Frame.io, and GenStudio for Performance Marketing. Workfront Fusion adds low-code connectors for Slack, Microsoft Teams, Figma, and public-API services. Mobile apps support tasks, projects, proofs, approvals, requests, and timesheets on iOS and Android. Pricing is on request, and no free plan is listed.
