ClickUp helps us keep track of the total pipeline of loans. We have spaces broken into individual areas and then the active company pipeline. The breakdowns make it easy to see what is happening and what will soon be happening as well as manage repetitive smaller daily tasks. The communication that can be automatically triggered is great, especially with the app.
  • Task Overview
  • Communication
  • Follow Up
  • File storage/retrieval
  • An intro to set up ClickUp-related communication. Essentially everything is turned on by default and there probably should be a walkthrough asking what would be best for you.
  • Two apps on the Google store.
If you have an office where people are in and out of a particular file and you don't want to have to follow up with 3 different people where we stand on the file. Being able to communicate with each other, regardless of where you all physically are, about your particular contribution and not having to run everyone down is a great benefit. A scenario negative scenario about ClickUp is the file management system. Sometimes on the app, it won't let me download a file. Other times on the desktop files won't upload at all and you just have to come back to it later. Also if you pull a file out of a ZIP file or your email and drop it directly into ClickUp, the file will show up in the folder but you won't be able to open it. You have to download the file to your computer and then upload it. The workaround is doable, but annoying in a minor way.

  • Time savings due to lack of repetitive emails/texts/calls.
  • We use this over Microsoft Teams and Teams is included in our Microsoft Suite, that should tell you something.
  • Having another redundant time tracker has helped us not miss deadlines.
We use ClickUp as an active workload tracker. We have daily conversations about each task in the company space. This not only keeps everyone up to date about what is going on, but it allows a fresh set of eyes that wouldn't normally have looked. We've caught quite a few errors or conflicts with these conversations.
ClickUp really helped us come together as a team. We didn't have other processes in place to bring us more together as a team and ClickUp has given us that.
I haven't used Teams in 2 years now, but when I did ClickUp did almost everything better than Teams did. I'm sure Teams has bridged the gap since then, but at this point, ClickUp does things so well that there is no need to go elsewhere at this time.

I have more of a tech background than anyone here so all basic tech support is mine to attempt to fix.
  • Organization
  • At-a-glance daily workload
  • File storage
  • I can't think of any unexpected or innovative ways we use ClickUp.
  • Using the shared documents more when we need to collaborate more on one.
It does everything we need it to, doesn't cost the most, and there seems to be a drive at ClickUp to deliver a great product. Once I feel a company isn't fighting for its customers then I have a reason to start looking elsewhere.
No
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
Price vs features. We're not looking for the cheapest thing, but also not looking the just pay for a thing because we need it.
We went through trails of ClickUp, Asana, and Teams. We all liked ClickUp the most. I don't feel there is a reason to redo the process again or change how we did the selection process.
  • Implemented in-house
No
Change management was a major issue with the implementation
That we were all running around hoping everyone was doing their jobs correctly. Oversight and redundancy has help us catch errors before they're major problems.
  • Just bruised egos on how unorganized we all were as a company.
Just have an open mind that you're using a new system and there is probably a way to do whatever it is you're looking to do. Support will help you.
  • No Training
It was easy for me personally, but I have more tech background than your standard person. What I would suggest would be that ClickUp review how a client is using the platform and then give a yearly or so call to the owner to see if they can help more.
Just right for this type of product. When we were setting it up I don't remember spending more than a day or two talking back and forth about what we needed/wanted. There were some customization after that, but minor and was able to be fixed that day.
Just keep an open mind and play around with the options.
No - we have not done any customization to the interface
No - we have not done any custom code
No, we're not power users that need advanced options (at least at this time).
I've only used it one time and the issue was resolved quickly and to my satisfaction. This is what I personally want, I don't need people who act like we're going to be best friends while we solve this problem. Fix it as quickly as possible and on to the next thing.
I did not, didn't know it was an option.
No
I honestly don't remember the issue, it was when we first got ClickUp (long time ago). I do remember that the issue was solved quickly and correctly. That feeling sticks with me more than the actual issue.

It's like Chipotles in my area, some of them are awful and some are great (but they all have delicious food). Can I really recall all the issues at the bad ones? No, but I remember standing in the restaurant frustrated and thinking I'm never coming to this location again.
It's pretty easy to figure out without having to invest a bunch of time researching how to use it. The additional different views and themes can really help you personalize how you like to see information, both physically and aesthetically.
  • Moving tasks
  • Assigning tasks
  • Setting up your lists
  • File retrieval (at times)
  • File upload (at times)
Yes, but I don't use it
We have 3 different jobs that all utilize ClickUp and I haven't heard any complaints.
I can't recall of any time ClickUp has been down for more than a few seconds. The only availability option is file retrieval at times, some times it just sits there trying to open a file, but again this happens very infrequently.
Updates are almost seamless and the pages load quickly.
  • None
  • No

We haven't used it.
Maybe have an account representative explain to the clients about what integrations are and how they're beneficial to you.
The person that did that has no complaints.
I've never had an issue with ClickUp that we weren't able to resolve quickly.
Haven't used.
I did not do this part of the process.
I did not.
Didn't help with the purchase.
Yes
The upgrades to the system are all seamless. A dialogue box pops up letting you know there is an update and to get that update you have to click the box. So if you want to wait you can.
  • I honestly don't read the patch notes.
  • Nothing I can think of at this time, maybe a place for upcoming changes.

We moved to ClickUp over a year ago from Asana. As a Digital Agency we needed a comprehensive system, which, on one hand, would allow us to manage different projects from a wide range of services e.g. web development, branding, naming, web design, brand strategies, etc., and on the other, that would enable us to combine and integrate a lot of data regarding these ongoing, complete, and future projects into our own, custom, data hub, thanks to which we're able to track the most important financial aspects of the company and plan on our future. ClickUp has also enabled us to invite our Clients and work on the projects together with them while using our own workflow. We're using ClickUp every single day in our work and find it excellent for everyday operations at our company. It allows us to track our progress, receives notifications on the completed or assigned tasks, creates mind maps, dashboards, and projects, and find our way through big chunks of data in an easy way. For a year the only issue we've encountered was a rare case of ClickUp working slowly or lagging but other than that it's just perfect for our organization.
  • Project Management
  • Time Tracking
  • Data export
  • Integrations
  • Dashboards
  • Speed
ClickUp is an excellent tool for project management and time tracking. I highly recommend it to anyone searching for a comprehensive system that combines core tools with multiple optional assets that can be used in various ways, according to the needs of specific users or clients. It also works great when it comes to possible data integration, which allows users to easily use and export the data you have stored in the system for your external needs and ideas.

  • Faster project completion
  • Reduced spend
  • Increased collaboration with our Clients
Thanks to ClickUp we've been able to create our own workflow, which has significantly enhanced our everyday work. We can now organize our projects team from different departments to smoothly work together on various projects, easily track our time and progress, and achieve our goals easier. Which also concludes to quantified savings for us.
Thanks to ClickUp we were finally able to stop using external tools for different aspects of our work, like time tracking, collaboration with our Clients, project management, etc. Instead of using about 5-6 external tools and systems, we are now able to just focus on our work and develop our own workflow, depending on our needs.
The tools we have used before are good, however, we had to split our time and focus between them, instead of just being able to work within one environment. Moreover, ClickUp has allowed us to use options that worked worse elsewhere. For example, TimeCamp's integration with Asana often dropped off, and then we had no clue what was going on when it comes to time tracking in our projects. ClickUp barely ever has such emergency cases, thanks to which we do not have to worry about such an issue anymore.

One doesn't really need much specific skills to support ClickUp on the on-going basis. The system is intuitive enough itself that any user can actually learn how to operate on it, create formulas or integrations they would like to have. We never had a need to have a specially dedicated person just to manage the system for us.
  • Data management
  • Project management
  • Time tracking
  • Holiday management
  • Office management
  • Integration of data extracted from ClickUp into our dedicated, external financial dashboard that allows us to overview all the projects and specific data we want to control on an ongoing basis.
  • When we were starting using ClickUp we were rather looking at using it within our organization instead of working on it with our Clients. However, it turned out to be a great tool for us to be able to also work with our customers on the ongoing projects. Now we have plenty of clients working with us directly in the system and praising its intuitiveness as well.
  • The reporting tools allow us to create very precise time tracking rapports for our Clients.
  • Creating further API integrations
  • Integrating our e-mail correspondence fully into ClickUp
We're very pleased with how the system works in general. For over a year we've barely ever had any problems with ClickUp and there might have only been one or two times when it wasn't operational for us due to a global emergency. Moreover, when we had a problem once with renewing our licenses we've been contacted directly by our account manager and taken care of in a very professional way (with a due refund as well). The exceptional customer service makes us firmly believe that ClickUp is just the right tool for us.
Yes
We were able to stop using TimeCamp and Asana and instead swap them for just ClickUp instead. Thanks to that we do not have to worry about integration between those systems, which was often breaking up for us, thus leaving us without a much-needed tool for time tracking.
  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
Product features were generally the key for us to move over to ClickUp from Asana. We've been looking for a system that would be the most flexible and spent tens of hours on exploring the market. ClickUp was simply the fruit of our long research into what system would be best suited for our needs.
I wouldn't really change our evaluation and selection process, as we believe we've made a great choice of picking ClickUp as our main system to use.
  • Implemented in-house
No
Change management was minimal
It wasn't too difficult for us to change the management as we were working on Asana prior to moving to ClickUp, so when it comes to task management the systems are fairly similar. However, where it comes to time tracking, data management, office management etc. ClickUp has allowed us to enhance in all of those fields immensely when compared with other systems.
  • Creating our own workflow suited to the needs of our organization
Using ClickUp is fairly easy. There are multiple guides on how to use all of the functions in the system. An organization wanting to start working with ClickUp should simply try it out and see how it would like to adapt its workflow to the possibilities the system gives the users.
  • Online Training
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.
We've only had one problem with ClickUp for over a year and it occurred when we were about to renew our subscription for the paid licenses. Thanks to exceptional customer service we've been able to resolve it fairly quickly and on top of that ClickUp has refunded us quickly with an amount that was due. We've barely ever come across such helpful customer service, so that's a big plus.
We haven't purchased a premium support as we're not an organization big enough yet to see the value in it. We barely have problems with ClickUp that we wouldn't be able to resolve on our own, therefore we're happy with the current plan we're using for over a year and plan on keeping it.
No
As stated earlier, we once had a problem with the renewal of our yearly licenses for the paid membership. ClickUp resolved the issue quickly and delivered an exceptional customer service, thanks to which we were able to focus on our work, instead of dragging this topic for a long period of time. We've been directly contacted by an account manager dedicated to our account to enhance the process and that helped a lot as well.
There are multiple services you can use ClickUp for, data management, time tracking, task/project management, reporting, API integrations, and just so many more. It's just up for you to decide how you would like to use it in a way best suited to your needs.
  • Time tracking - a simple timer on tasks
  • Project management - easy to structure the tasks and projects
  • Search tool - easy to find anything even if you have hundreds of tasks and data stored on your workspace
  • You can find guides for everything, so it's rather just a matter of spending your time on learning something and not a problem of how difficult it is.
Yes, but I don't use it
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.
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.
