Great for Collaboration, but Upload Speed Can Lag
What do you like best about the product?
I like Workiva for its collaboration capabilities, which are really effective. The approval workflow and request for information features are particularly useful. I appreciate receiving notifications when a task is ready for review, as it is helpful for providing timely input. The dashboards are also a feature I enjoy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find it a bit slow sometimes when uploading information, and occasionally, it just stays there in a loop.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Workiva for internal audit, solving documentation and logistics issues. I like the collaboration features, including approval workflows and information requests, and getting notifications for timely input is helpful.

Effortless Financial Reporting, Needs Faster Runtime
What do you like best about the product?
I love how user-friendly Workiva is. As the Workiva admin at my organization, I frequently add new hires or outside counsel to the system, and so they will reach out to me and ask for training or a tutorial. I tell them Workiva is so intuitive and user-friendly, and they usually agree after exploring it themselves. I love the linking features, which make us feel confident in our numbers and reporting because any last-minute changes get updated throughout all documents, maintaining their integrity. The blackline and compare feature is great for tracking changes and is especially helpful for informing the audit committee about updates. I also love that you can use templates. Workiva automates a lot of tasks for us, like cash flow processes, which normally take hours or days but we can complete in minutes, or at most, a couple of hours. It centralizes all our accounting data, making it readily available for creating streamlined, connected reports, ensuring consistency across earnings releases, SEC filings, and board packets.
What do you dislike about the product?
That's hard because Workiva is wonderful. I do think that the connectivity can be slow. I wasn't sure if it was just me, but I talked to a couple other people, and they agreed that especially when you're on a screen share, like Zoom, Workiva does slow down. So, it does have a bit of a delay, but we always get through it. It's not the end of the world. So that's really the only slightly "dislike" I have.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workiva automates our financial processes, significantly reducing cash flow time from days to minutes. It centralizes our accounting data, allowing for streamlined reporting and ensuring consistency across earnings releases, SEC filings, internal reporting (board), etc.
Efficient for Filings, Needs Formatting Improvements

I like how easy Workiva is to work with. I value the XBRL feature, the test filing, and the customer support.
What do you dislike about the product?
The ease of use when drafting a new annual proxy, particularly the awful formatting, is difficult to figure out.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Workiva takes care of all of our XBRL for the Proxy and some formatting, simplifying our SEC filings.
Super Helpful, Responsive Workiva Team
What do you like best about the product?
Workiva reps and XBRL specialists are super helpful, accommodating, and quick to respond. They are very knowledgeable and make me feel like they are on my team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Features that would be helpful can sometimes take a long time to roll out as the platform is still developing.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With Workiva's linking and evergreen method (which I learned about at Workiva Amplify), we can easily put together and roll forward our quarterly and annual reports (10-Q, 10-K, 8-K). Alongside that, the filing process is super smooth and the reps are always there to help with any questions.
Powerful Linked Data Across Documents and Presentations
What do you like best about the product?
The functionality of linking numbers from sheets to multiple areas in a document filing or powerpoint.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish that i could easily open items into a new page or tab instead of within the Workiva browser so that it's easier to review documents side by side without having to fully open a new browser.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is making it very easy to perform our 10-K/Q filings, see changes in documents, and ensure consistency across all files.

Brilliant for Financial Reporting, Slight Delays Noticed
What do you like best about the product?
I like that multiple people can edit simultaneously in Workiva and we can track changes, which is great for collaboration. We can assign tasks easily, which helps in managing projects. I also appreciate the publishing feature where we can upload our papers and keep them in one place. The Workiva agent was very helpful during the setup.
