No nonsense AIO project management tool

Pros

Ease of use and how we can collaborate with other team members.

Cons

Sometimes it's confusing to find pages and go search for items, and there is a limitation to prefix use cases.

Solid all in one product

Overall though, especially as a user I'm very happy with the product and it works the best out of all we have tried, especially also for the other non IT/Development departments that struggled with utilizing other solutions before

Pros

It is a fully fledged all in one solution for Product Development.
We use it from creating and tracking high level goals to individual projects and even our ticket system is here.
Added to that it has a robust set of supporting features like Documents, Graphs, and Video recording (for help videos etc.)

Cons

It can be unreliable, from just beeing very slow in general, to loading issues that keep cropping up where I can't edit Task descriptions because the field is just in a loading loop.
To a lesser degree for a user but for me as an admin:
Upselling, they are constantly trying to upsell you, from AI to courses to the business plus plan (which on their pricing page they don't even list, but they love gating little things behind)
Similiarly they love to tell you how easy it is to add a user in the middle of a month, but remove one and suddenly you have "an open seat" that you should quickly fill since you are already paying for it. Those and other examples just make the practices feel very money grabby and I'm kind of fearing them taking away features just to add into another extra premium fee.

Reasons for Choosing ClickUp

We wanted an all in one product that was easy to use for our non technical departments to manage their projects as well.

Switched From

Jira

Reasons for Switching to ClickUp

Same as the reason we switched, Asana was not as feature complete as clickup

The app is not easy-to-use, productive, efficient. No bug fixing. only money & time lost.

The App was an aim to help Project managers in their work and life, and instead - it makes it more complicated. The bugs are not fixed, the features are not improved. I reported many bugs since a year (wrong filters working, statises not visible, wrong data tracki g and much more), but the company did nothing about it. We get info about an updates every month on our mailboxes but none of the crucial bugs was ever fixed. I have 300+250 tasks on ClickUp, they are not able to tell when they would be able to fix those, so no Roadmap. I am a Project manager and product Owner since many years and I havent seen that kind of Roadmap Management in my lifetime. I lost much money and time cause I was not on time with many tasks and what was the cause? The ClickUp shows different tasks on different lists and somehow many on them are not visible, even if I use date Filter or due date "last 7 days" etc - we cannot trust this App, and instead of giving some Roadmap, we still do not know whether its good to move 1000 tasks somewhere else or what. And it has been since almost a year.
Sometimes I got answer like "We cannot estimate the time but its in the Review" for 15 weeks... And sometimes - no info for long time, promising they are working on it and then - tadaaam "We are not working on it cause its only you who reported that bug and we prioritize bugs and issues Based on the number of reporters". Omg. It is unbelieveable.

Of course you would get AI updates, some integrations etc, but the crucial things like reponsiveness, productivity, reliable features, bug fixing, filters working properly, lists showing right tasks every moment - this is something you cannot See.
ClickUp Team, info that developers are working on sth for weeks, months or you cannot estimate the time is neither empowering their businesses nor saving their time money / nor giving them overview of how the Projects are going and whether they should perform some actions etc. Whasn't that the aim of the App?

If I loose more than 50€ once again due to the bugs, I am done of waiting… Please, think twice while choosing the app. Especially if you don’t want to have your work disruptive.

Moreover, I got info “We have only one report of this issue, the issue doesn't block workflow, and there are viable workarounds using the web and desktop apps.” -> the ClickUp team told be that I could use computer to workaround this. Really? heavy computer everyday with me, those days? Web app is terrible, no responsiveness at all.

Really, I was about to have “The Highest Rated Project Management Platform” “ClickUp's easy-to-use product management software keeps your team productive, efficient and headache-free” “ClickUp's productivity platform is constantly improving as we release new features requested by our clients every single week.” ar they told avout the app, and unfortunately no progress in those really crucial bugs and features. The slogans on the websites are not real.

Pros

Maybe the layout, I thouth it would be useful. I like the dependencies.

Cons

The app is not easy-to-use, productive, efficient. No bug fixing. only money & time lost.
In My Work, opening a task and returning to the view places you back at the top of the list
Statuses not appearing when adding a status filter
tasks are not getting displayed in My Work > Overdue > See All of the mobile app.
Task with DueDate for today are missing in MyWork - Today section. Also shows tasks missing from Everything List]
Mobile Home V3 | In My Work, opening a task and returning to the view places you back at the top of the list
Home | Mobile | Tasks missing from My Work on the mobile app and browser]

The statuses are not working properly
The lists and due dates and not working
The web site is not responsive

How could I trust the App as I do have 5 tasks on my TODO list for today and then I got 25 email notifications that those tasks are overdue? Where those tasks were hidden for 24 hours? And Its the same with many functionalities. We cannot trust statuses, Dates, lists, progress...

Mobile Home V3 | In My Work, opening a task and returning to the view places you back at the top of the list - could you imagine having to review/change the due dates and every time scrolling to the bottom (200+ tasks on the list) to change the date of one particular task? It last 1.5hours every few days.

Extensive Project Management Platform

My overall experience was pleasant as generally, coming from Google Sheets, Click Up is a way lot better in terms of project management.

Pros

Tons of features to use.
Gives holistic view of projects and provide tracking notification on what needs to be done on a certain day versus deadline.
Tasks can be assigned via POCs and group of POCs and they will get a notification for it.
Project duration can be tracked through summation on start and end time.

Cons

As a first time user, these tons of features can be intimidating hence it would need a few hours to be familiarized on all the features.

Alternatives Considered

monday.com and Asana

Reasons for Choosing ClickUp

Google Sheets can be very messy and manual hence we've looked into a more automated solution that is Click Up.

Reasons for Switching to ClickUp

By far the selection criteria involves pricing and tons of useful features and Click Up was able to satisfy both.

Intuitive Productivity Tool

ClickUp was a great addition to our team's tool kit, it's very easy to use out of the box
It's nice to not have to dedicate a couple days to learning a new tool

Pros

All of the team agreed that ClickUp is very easy to use without a learning curve
We also like the GUI
Some of our team has started using it for their personal tasks

Cons

The emails, for every status change, perhaps its something that the admin of the account can change, but it gets overwhelming
