The Verdict
Teamwork is built for agencies and professional services, with a focus on task-management and time-tracking. Wrike targets enterprise and marketing teams and leads with gantt-charts and custom-workflows.
Pricing is close: Wrike starts at $10/mo versus $13.99/mo for Teamwork — not a deciding factor on its own.
Both offer free plans, so you can test each with your real workflow before committing to a subscription.
Feature-wise, Wrike offers broader built-in capabilities (7 features vs 6), while Teamwork takes a more focused approach — which can mean a simpler, faster onboarding experience.
Both tools are a solid fit for professional services — in those cases, the decision often comes down to workflow style and how your team prefers to organize work.
This is a genuinely close comparison. If you can, sign up for both free trials (where available) and run a one-week test with your actual team tasks before deciding.
