Questions? We have answers.

What is project management for agencies?

Project management for agencies involves planning, executing, and overseeing projects within a creative or marketing agency environment. It ensures work is delivered on time, within budget, and meets client expectations—often across multiple teams and fast-moving campaigns.

How does Workfront help agencies manage complex client projects more efficiently?

Adobe Workfront streamlines agency workflows by offering real-time visibility into timelines, priorities, and progress across multiple client accounts. Teams can reduce handoffs, automate intake, and track delivery using one unified platform tailored to agency lifecycle needs — from scoping to billing.

What makes Workfront a better fit for creative agencies than traditional project tools?

Unlike generic task trackers, Workfront gives creative agencies built-in proofing tools, version control, and integrations with Adobe Creative Cloud and Frame.io. This makes it easier to collaborate directly on content, get quick approvals, and ensure final outputs meet both branding guidelines and client expectations.

Can Workfront help agencies optimize team utilization and forecast future workload?

Yes — Workfront provides visibility into both current resource capacity and future demand. Agencies can proactively balance workloads, avoid burnout, and improve profitability using real-time reports that align time tracking, budgets, and strategic client priorities.

Why are fast-scaling agencies turning to Workfront for project operations?

Agencies facing faster turnaround times and increased content volume choose Workfront because it scales with their needs — not against them. It connects workflows, approvals, resources, and analytics in one place, helping operations teams respond faster to client demands while maintaining margin visibility.

What are the 4 types of project management?

The four main types of project management are:

  • Waterfall– a sequential, linear approach.
  • Agile– an iterative, flexible methodology.
  • Scrum– a specific Agile framework with defined roles and time-boxed sprints.
  • Kanban– a visual workflow management method focused on continuous delivery.

Each approach supports different project types, team dynamics, and delivery styles.
