Case Study: Hildebrands GmbH achieves 25% faster project communications and transparent collaboration with Wrike

Wrike eliminates project communication routine and supports effective collaboration

Hildebrands GmbH is a German firm specializing in international shop fitting, product design, strategic sales development and brand architecture for clients like Volkswagen and Schiesser. Operating as a distributed team with few in-house staff and about 30 external partners across Europe, the company struggled to keep collaborators up to date—the high information flow made coordination time-consuming and prior tools (Microsoft Project, Basecamp) proved too bulky or unsuitable.

Hildebrands adopted Wrike for its simple interface and flexible plans, using the workspace, Timeline (Gantt) view and “request status update” features to assign tasks, edit schedules and send automatic notifications. The result: transparent workflows, fewer calls and emails, daily reminders so nothing is missed, improved oversight of project progress and roughly a 25% reduction in time spent on internal project communications.
