Wrike Becomes First to Integrate Google Wave with Project Management Software

Wrike.com releases the synchronization feature that will let millions of Google Wave users automatically turn their waves into tasks on Gantt charts and then collaboratively track the task's progress in full-featured project management software, called Wrike.

Mountain View, California - (February 3, 2010) - Wrike.com announces the integration of its leading project management SaaS with Google Wave to help distributed teams increase their productivity through a revolutionary mix of collaboration and project management features. Thanks to this integration, millions of people will be able to easily convert their ideas discussed in The Wave into actionable items in Wrike. In turn, Wrike's comprehensive project management features will help Wave users collaboratively track their task's progress through completion.

"For years, email has been the medium for project communications used by millions of teams worldwide. In 2006, Wrike was the first on the market to offer its project management software integrated with email. Today, Google Wave is challenging email," said Andrew Filev, the CEO at Wrike.com. "However, even more efficient communication will not satisfy all the project collaboration needs of business users. Automatic synchronization of Wave and Wrike is a perfect solution here."

Google Wave can be effectively used by teams for brainstorming, concept creation, document discussion, or as a note-taking platform for meetings. The Wave was conceived as a communication tool, however, it can hardly help people organize and manage projects. Integration with Wrike helps to elegantly cover this gap.

Now people who use both Wrike and Wave just need to add Wrike as a contact to a new wave, and this wave will be automatically turned into a task in Wrike. In Wrike, people will be able to schedule the wave turned into a task, track comments to the task added in The Wave, build timelines, track time spent on the task and much more. Today, Wrike is recognized as the most practical project management software on the market by its users. "Quite simply the best project management software I have ever seen. Wrike is a massive time-saver for us," said Adrian McDonagh, managing director at EasyWebRecruitment.com.
