Adobe acquires Workfront, a $1.5 billion workflow software company

I know Workfront as an active sponsor of the Martech-Conference in Boston. Workfront or Heidi Melin (CMO) always brought two interesting sessions about workflow and collaboration. Their customers proudly presented quite complex solutions. Now I read yesterday, on 10.11.2020: Adobe buys Workfront, a $1.5 billion workflow software company.

In the headline of Techcrunch is also Workfront the Start Up

Well, a Start up Workfront isn’t anymore. With about 1,000 employees and about 3,000 renowned customers, Workfront is a big player in the market. We are not alone in talking about the MarTech market. The Workfront topics include Project & Workflow Management, Marketing Resource Management/MRM, Digital Asset Management/DAM.

We, on our portal CRM-TECH.WORLD have deliberately not yet reported in detail about Workfront, because it does not yet play a special role in the German or German-speaking market. This may change now, with the acquisition of Adobe. Our Landscape for Collaboration focuses (at the moment still) on other market participants.

What makes Workfront special? What do they say about themselves?

The easiest way is always to watch the video about Workfront. There is already a video, what makes Adobe and Workfront special. What do they say about themselves?
