Considered Both Products
ClickUp
Chose ClickUp
None of the tools that I've used have come close to ClickUp's ability to tailor to a team or user's needs, nor have they come close to ClickUp's incredible customer support. None are even in the same ballpark when it comes to ClickUp's incredible implementation of not only …
Chose ClickUp
More comprehensive, with greater customization options and integrations with other work applications such as Google Drive and Slack.

Mais completo, com mais possibilidades de personalização e integrações com outros aplicativos de trabalho como Google Drive e Slack.
Chose ClickUp
It literally nests all platforms in one. It combines the best tools from each platform and simplifies them.
Chose ClickUp
We use Slack still but we also communicate a lot more in ClickUp than we did with Monday.
Chose ClickUp
Those are fine products, but you are more stuck in their views. Not nearly the same amount of customization. So if you just want the basic stuff, then great asana will do a great job for you and is supported everywhere. But if you have different projects that need different …
Chose ClickUp
Very traditional, only good thing is multi collaboration.
Can't scale as well, only limited clients can be used in a spreasdsheet
Chose ClickUp
Trello, Atlassian Confluence, Skype for Business / Lync (discontinued), Microsoft Teams and Discord
Chose ClickUp
It felt easier to get started with ClickUp, JIRA felt it had too much technical gatekeeping (e.g. jquery). Asana felt too focused on business use cases when I was using it (2021).

ClickUp is a good middle ground!
Chose ClickUp
It's a good free alternative to Monday.com.
More user-friendly interface than Trello and Notion, without the need to pay for a premium price.
Chose ClickUp
I ended up picking ClickUp over other tools because it's very flexible. I could make what I wanted with the tool.
Chose ClickUp
About the same as Asana. JIRA feels more advanced with all the confluences and other tools. It also has Epics, Stories, Tasks, and sub-tasks, that I thing ClickUp could benefit from introducing as well.
Chose ClickUp
Used JIRA before ClickUp, it's a good software but not as easy to use and understand for beginners as ClickUp is.
Chose ClickUp
Already covered this, but ClickUp does the job for covering what we need internally for task management (better than Trello), team communication (better than Slack), and Zoom calls (no need to use a 3rd-party app for internal calls). There are other features too that integrate …
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp stacks up against Trello, Monday.com and Notion is very first the Cost Saving. Instead of buying different licenses per application in ClickUp you will just buy 1 license that can do what the competitors can. For example, in Trello it's a Kanban view, but in ClickUp you …
Chose ClickUp
We selected ClickUp because of the UI, pricing, and features. We compared ClickUp with Jira, but Jira is more towards Tech as compared to ClickUp. ClickUp has many features that suit our business requirements, and it is very easy to set up. ClickUp's guest user feature is very …
Chose ClickUp
Much easier to use in standard and administrative settings.

Muito mais facil o uso padrão e administrativo.
Chose ClickUp
I haven't used Asana very much at all but I wasn't any more impressed with it than ClickUp. However, I wasn't in it long enough to customize it to my liking so that could have been why.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is more intuitive than other tools and has more features that assist with processes.

O ClickUp é mais intuitivo do que outras ferramentas e possui mais recursos que auxiliam nos processos.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp has many more features and is also much better visually, furthermore it allows for integrations with other applications.

ClickUP tiene muchas más funciones y además es mucho mejor visualmente, además permite hacer integraciones con otras aplicaciones.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is way more robust than its competitors. Smartsheet is more of a simple spreadsheet-like tool. Asana has nowhere near the customizability. And Trello is too simple. ClickUp is like a mashup of all the PMIS tools out there, combining all of their features into a …
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is the best tool to use for teams that are scaling up because it comes with a lot of tools that you can eliminate out of the box and their advanced features (so many options for views, templates, custom fields) are unlike any other tool that I have used before.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is a powerhouse product that is only limited by your imagination. It has become one of our go to applications that is a jack of all trades.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp had the best and easiest user segmentation. Asana is a bit heavy to navigate sometimes. I also prefer the ClickUp List Views over the Monday.com list views.
Chose ClickUp
Hard to describe it, but the way it connects everything so much better, that they layout is significantly easier to use, and the capabilities are significantly higher. Cleaner and easier to use than SalesForce, both in capability and in the way the workspace UX is presented is …
Yamdu
Chose Yamdu
At the time, there really wasn't anything else like Yamdu. Especially as, in Celtx's case, at that time they weren't doing Excel/CSV exports of shot lists in the A/V format, something we required for what we were shooting. I understand that StudioBinder has increased its …

Small to mid size startups can get real benefits from clickup, where accountability & organization is getting started. Creating tickets for each client in the beginning would be overwhelming, but very necessary as scale is attained, and clickup is THE platform for this. Jira *A direct competitor) might feel overwhelming or legacy coded due to its target of MNC being their customers. A new age platform like clickup can be used. The breadth it serves from project tracking to time-wise reports & alerts are useful for startups like mine

Yamdu is a good choice if you work in a professional setup, where teamwork is important, where big crews have to be handled. If you only have a few crew members in small projects, the toolset might be a bit overloaded

Pros
  • Via ClickUp we are able to handle the sales pipeline and proper history on those leads.
  • Have created the ticket creation workflow for our clients for our support teams and technical teams.
  • Customised dashboards and even with the AI brain we have created our customer agents who are helping us in day to day operations.
  • ClickUp inbuilt AI Notetaker is a good tool because after each meeting it has the ability to create the meeting notes for us.

  • Customized production schedule and easy management.
  • Total financial control of the project in all areas.

Cons
  • Maps functionality is basic, would be great for it to help with routing logic and daily planning.
  • Keeping track of task default locations when working on the fly can sometimes be hard to keep track of, but that's mainly an issue with me letting my AI's via MCP boat the workspace structure.
  • Permissions can be confusing and buggy, so you need to monitor and plan them really intentionally; sometimes they'll get mixed up, and your permissions to add fields, delete/access items, etc. can get buggy.

  • The interface can be a little overwhelming sometimes, since there are so many options available
  • I wish there was true mobile support so the app could be used during production
  • The cost was ultimately too high for me--I wish there was another, more affordable tier for smaller production houses

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.

Usability
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.

What you see is what you get. It's easy to start working when you setup your first project. Also team members do not need many new to learn skills to work with the basic functions. Really incredible is Yamdu's help center. It is always available in the right corner. A lot of topics are covered with video links. If you need personal assistance, you can write a message within the help-box and Yamdu's crew is really fast in responding!

Reliability and Availability
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.

Performance
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.

Support Rating
Support are genuinely helpful and really nice to deal with. I had a bug on my workspace that I’d been experiencing for a while. They looked into it for me and asked some questions. Once they found the issue and resolved it, they even filmed a video detailing how they’d fixed it. That level of support is fantastic.

This is one of Yamdu's strongest points.

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.

Implementation Rating
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.

At the time, there really wasn't anything else like Yamdu. Especially as, in Celtx's case, at that time they weren't doing Excel/CSV exports of shot lists in the A/V format, something we required for what we were shooting. I understand that StudioBinder has increased its featureset the past few years, but Yamdu always felt like the most robust option and more familiar with the film/tv world.

Scalability
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.

Return on Investment
  • Before ClickUp at my agency, we were using spreadsheets to track our client work. ClickUp made it all so much easier and more effective.
  • It helps me track down to the smallest details so I don't miss anything, and it is easy to view the information I need when I need it
  • I don't really have quantifiable numbers but I can't imagine going back to spreadsheets or what other terrible alternative we may be using otherwise!

  • Positive impact, centralized place with some good tools for film productions
  • Negative impact, not that flexible and as expected and strict pricing policy with little flexibility
