ClickUp vs. Profit.co vs. Quire

It has been great for all of my needs - tracking elaborate tasks/subtasks and their timelines, instructions, time spent, reporting on time, etc. I did try to use it for lesson planning and time tracking for homeschool and it got too hard to view and keep track of all the automations I had set up and if they were firing at the right times. But that's the only time I can think of where it didn't really work for what I needed!

It is good for companies that want to have clear Objectives, where they describe how they will achieve them and will track the progress. If used properly it can significantly improve the company's productivity and the employees' understanding of where the company is going. This platform will find its customers in companies that are oriented towards efficiency and are willing to invest some time and effort to understand how their departments are working. Thus, reflect on how you can improve things.

Well-suited for small teams. It's feature-rich and simple, but doesn't have the bug-tracking capabilities of heavier tools like Jira. Low setup overhead, so it's easy to jump in and start quickly! Best Gantt chart experience I've had in a while.

• Visualizing your work in a digestible way, far better than the default tools my company suggests we use.
• Easy intake of projects/tasks and working on the fly in conjunction to desktop work.
• Cleanly structuring knowledge bases and being able to use that info in your projects and tasks/deals.
• Flexibility in being able to build the workspace around your personal workflow, without it being fragmented or confusing.
• Keeping all context about deals/tasks/projects intact and easy to access with simple workflows.
• Being able to run the same abilities of so many other business tools, all in one place, in a far more connected and simplistic way.

• Easy to use
• Has many off the shelf templates and metrics
• Easy to customize

• The ability to tag and label items.
• The ability to set the priority level.
• The ability to complete items and have them removed from the list.

Incentivized

• I would like to see when scheduling a task for someone, their available hours, as I am scheduling instead of having to go back to the workload view
• I'd like easier UX and understanding of what all of the different levels of folders, lists, tasks, can do and what they should be used for
• Notifications can be cleaned up

Incentivized

• Have an easier way to extract data from the API to our database

• Quire syncs with your calendar, but it would be nice to see an actual calendar within the app as well.

It has been a game-changer in terms of project tracking, as animation is a demanding product that requires multiple layers of analysis, revisions, tracking, scheduling, etc. ClickUp simplifies many approvals as anyone can easily add items, and you can tag the people who need to look at them.

In general, I think the usability is probably great. The reason I didn't give it as high of a score is because at the last 2 companies I worked at, they each used different software. So I was already used to those. Learning their UI isn't hard, but always a little annoying to learn something new.

Very easy to input tasks, assign them to people, and make dependencies between tasks. Workflow is super convenient once you get used to using enter or tab in the right place. Can do a lot of things from the keyboard, but the commands are not as intuitive as those in Todoist.

For over a year ClickUp was unavailable to us just twice for a couple of hours. I would say for a system this big and working globally that was a minor issue. They managed to fix all the issues within a couple hours and then it was back up and running perfectly fine.

The speed of ClickUp is average to be honest. This is one of the biggest flaws of the system, sometimes it's also lagging a little bit but we also have a lot of documents, lists etc. on our workspace. However, with the next version of ClickUp I've seen they are planning to increase the speed by almost 500%, probably by changing the technology, so I am more than looking forward to it.

I started using ClickUp when it was what most would consider a baby company. There were the occasional bugs that made working in ClickUp a little bit of a headache, but the support feature allowed me to chat with a real persona and communicate my issues. I would always get prompt support and someone willing to really help me, not just point me to FAQ pages. Not feeling like a number really makes a difference.

Friendly and prompt support. No issues.

There are multiple guides on literally all of the functions you can find within the system, therefore it's easy to learn anything you'd really like to use, starting from project and people management, down to Gantts, mind maps, time tracking, inviting Clients as guests to work with you on the projects and so much more.

Start small. Don’t try to build the most elaborate plans first. Resist the urge to get into Gantt charts if no one is used to them. Just get work written, add dates and assignees, and start getting used to it. If you did not use a work management tool before, you need to be gracious with yourself about the fact that you likely do not have the muscle memory for working this way yet. But you will get there.

And leverage people who know it if possible. Look for ClickUp experts and vendors. They can really supercharge your effectiveness at building the tool out and speed up the process.

For me the customizability of ClickUp was unmatched. It really felt like there was no limit on what I could use it for and how I could organize things. For specific features, their Docs are really my favorite part. The customizability and ability to directly link to related tasks/docs/etc. is incredible. The closest I've found to it is Notion, but Notion is not as user friendly and doesn't offer all of the other capabilities that ClickUp does. When I first started using ClickUp, their pricing played a huge factor too. I thought their pricing was the most reasonable given the number of capabilities it came with. However, that's definitely changed over the years. They have a bad habit of moving certain functionalities from one tier up to a higher one. Or they put a one-time usage limit on a certain feature and once it runs out, you're forced to upgrade. Their pricing has become less competitive because of it

Profit.co was the easiest to use and the customer is great.

Quire comes close to Nuclino, but Nuclino wins with its ability to create "cards" and organize a little more neatly.

Scaling with ClickUp is superb. If you create a workflow best suited for your organization then it's all about creating new accounts and teaching the new employees the workflow you're using. It's that simple. There is no black magic when it comes to Clickup.
