User-friendly, offers a wide range of functions, and enhances collaboration within teams
We use ClickUp's pro solution for team project management. We divide our projects into multiple sprints and organize tasks accordingly. I have created a personal space within ClickUp where I oversee the development and design teams, each with its sections for tasks and stages of progress. This setup helps keep everything organized and ensures smooth collaboration across departments. ClickUp can optimize workflow by integrating with developer tools like Git, allowing seamless access to modules and enhancing collaboration. While I primarily use it for tracking team progress and roadmaps, integration with Git would greatly benefit developers who spend more time within ClickUp. Overall, I would rate ClickUp as a nine out of ten. I would recommend it to others.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"We can update tasks and track projects."
"The most valuable feature of ClickUp is its AI recommendation."
"The product has an efficient design."
"The most interesting feature is the ability to share what you are working on with an external entity. The customer has direct visibility on what is being done on a particular project and this provides a lot of transparency."
"It is great for visualization and project task assignments to team members."
"The tool is pretty intuitive."
"The simplicity of the tool is valuable because it has categories and subcategories."
"ClickUp offers a relatively user-friendly experience, especially when it comes to its fundamental features."
"There are two things in particular that I enjoy. The first is the portfolio planning section. Another advantage is that it is highly customizable."
"Overall, our company has all disintegrated systems, and with Planisware, we are getting a very integrated view of my portfolio reporting, cost and load, and everything else."
"We have a variety of different modules, but it is mainly used for costs, risks, and resources."
"Planisware offers integration with multiple tools and provides a good level of customization."
"Planisware has introduced Agile concepts, making it capable of Agile management similar to Jira and other Agile tools."
"The area that could benefit from improvement in this Planisware is the project management tool. I have previously used Project Server, which is a Microsoft solution, and I found it to be more user-friendly as it included a client solution. In contrast, with this solution, the only option available is the online version, making it difficult to create activities, milestones, and other necessary components. This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution."
"The solution is performance-oriented and easily customized accordingly to many areas, such as performance KPI."
"It stands out by automating the intricate mechanics of project execution, eliminating the need for highly technical individuals to manage and reconfigure models."
 

Cons

"ClickUp's interface needs improvement."
"ClickUp can improve the UI for mobile devices. For example, they are lacking some features in the Android version, such as Gantt charts."
"More automation features must be added."
"ClickUp could improve by streamlining its functions and organizing them better for easier access."
"ClickUp doesn't have a roadmap vision and a proper way of planning."
"The email portion, specifically the email automation, where you can add attachments, has room for improvement."
"There is a need for significant improvement in the user interface to make it more intuitive and less time-consuming to become familiar with."
"The tool is not user-friendly."

This is in comparison to Planisware, which offers a more comprehensive solution."
"The biggest con for Planisware is that if you are not a Planisware partner, you don't have access to their functions, making it difficult for beginners and new team members."
"More integration is needed with other kinds of products for better collaboration."
"Its stability should be improved. Its stability is the main issue, but we sometimes also have issues with calculations."
"They do not have anything that can assist customers with multi-year roadmap planning."
