Email Communication With External Requesters
While I'm thankful (after reading through lots of product feedback posts) that Wrike finally implemented "Email Communication With External Requesters" in forms, I have to echo many of the sentiments raised in the product announcement (https://help.wrike.com/hc/en-us/community/posts/7887388446743--From-Wrike-Email-Communication-With-Non-Wrike-Users-). But we are encountering a specific issue in our organization, which is that sometimes we need to communicate status with individuals outside of Wrike that is not the original requester. Since Wrike obviously has the ability to send out emails, why can't I put in any email address I want when I hit the email button. Currently, the only solution proposed to me by my account manager is simply to use Wrike integrate with something like Zendesk which is a solution that I think just increases bloat and adds to my organization's workflow.
Hi Greg Hao, thank you for creating this post. I see how this option would benefit users, and I have shared your feedback with our Product Team.
The team is continuously improving this feature and we will keep you updated if this idea is implemented. Also, I would like to mention that you can use public links to share information about statuses - and much more - with colleagues who don't have a Wrike account yet. Public links are automatically updated, so you wouldn't need to send an email to let these colleagues know about the latest changes.
If you have any additional questions, please let us know!
I'd like to chime in on this. There are times when the external requester enters their email incorrectly and our response to them is not received. I think having the capability to edit and add additional email addresses when we respond would help us avoid this situation.
