Wrike alternative
Wrike is a deep work-management platform, and for a large organisation that runs on its structure it can be the right call. Teams searching for a Wrike alternative usually describe the same few frictions: features that move or change between releases, a phone experience that does not match the desktop, and separate project and task item types that make a simple report a workaround. IterDone is the Wrike alternative that keeps the feature set people use and keeps it in one place.
The switch
Review write-ups of Wrike keep returning to three themes: capabilities that change or disappear between updates, a mobile app that does not do everything the desktop does, and projects and tasks being different kinds of item, so a report that spans both needs a workaround. We are describing what reviewers say, not auditing Wrike. What we can describe is IterDone: one kind of work item, a task, with subtasks nested under it; custom fields and statuses you set per list; dependencies, a timer and a shared timesheet; and the same app in a phone browser as on the desktop, so there is no second, smaller client to fall behind.
What we built instead
Everything is a task, and a task can have subtasks. The task type is a label you pick from a per-workspace list, not a separate object with its own fields and rules, so a list, a board or a timeline reads the same rows with no project-versus-task split to report around.
Add the fields a list needs, scoped to one list or a whole Space, from seventeen field types. Each list can run its own statuses, or inherit them from its Folder or Space until you detach it. Board, table, calendar, timeline and workload all read the same fields and statuses.
Mark a task as Waiting on or Blocking another and see it on the Gantt view. Start a timer on the task you are working on, and the shared timesheet is a view of entries that already exist.
IterDone runs in the browser on desktop or phone, with nothing to install and no separate mobile client to keep in step with the desktop one.
A REST API, webhooks and a built-in MCP server let an assistant create tasks, read lists and log time against the same data your team sees.
Side by side
| Capability | IterDone | Wrike |
|---|---|---|
| Work item types | One: tasks, with subtasks | Projects and tasks as separate item types, per reviews |
| Custom fields | Per list or per Space, seventeen field types | Available, configured within its own structure |
| Statuses | Per list, or inherited from the Folder or Space | Workflow-based |
| Dependencies | Waiting on and Blocking, drawn in Gantt | Dependencies on a timeline |
| Time tracking | Timer on the task, shared timesheet | Time tracking available |
| Phone | The same app in a mobile browser | Native mobile app, which reviewers say lacks desktop parity |
| AI / agents | Built-in MCP (89 tools) | API and integrations |

Common questions
Yes, for teams that want structure without a large platform to learn. IterDone has Spaces, Folders and Lists, custom fields, statuses per list, dependencies, a timer and a built-in MCP server. Try the live demo with no signup.
Yes. IterDone has one kind of work item, the task, with subtasks nested under it. Hierarchy comes from Spaces, Folders and Lists around the tasks, so a report reads one kind of row.
Yes. Custom fields can be scoped to a single list or a whole Space, and each list can have its own statuses or inherit them from its Folder or Space. See the custom fields and task statuses docs.
Yes. It runs in the browser on desktop or phone and is the same app on both, so there is no separate mobile client to differ from the desktop.
Yes. Mark a task as Waiting on or Blocking another, see it in the Gantt view, and use the timer on the task with the shared timesheet. See the time tracking docs.
Export your tasks from Wrike as a CSV, make sure the header row has a Name column, and upload it into a list. Name, description, status, priority and due date come across in one pass. See the import docs, or try it in the live demo with no signup.
