Considered Both Products
ClickUp
Chose ClickUp
I still use both. ClickUp is a little "bigger" and has some more tunning over details. When someone ask me about which to choose, my answer is "you must try them"... start using both and you'll find the best using them and asking users how they feel.
Chose ClickUp
The big selling point of Notion is that it is completely customisable. I would say ClickUp is only slightly less customisable and because the framework and support is there in ClickUp, it is actually faster to onboard people too. ClickUp gives businesses a better foundation to …
Chose ClickUp
Access is great - but not a shareable cloud environment. Monday.com is a close second - CU pips them at the post at this stage. It does become difficult to switch so the choice of tool at the beginning is very very important. The continuous improvements in CU gives me a lot of …
Chose ClickUp
We used ClickUp because if offered the most versatility, while still remaining functional and efficient for our entire company. ClickUp offers features that save time for every team member, and it was very easy to implement and integrate within our company.
Chose ClickUp
Love how ClickUp allows tasks to be opened in their own little window, where you can then see additional info. Monday.com forced us to have every field visible as a column, which lead to really complicated and difficult to navigate boards. ClickUp's Lists are cleaner, more …
Chose ClickUp
I walked away from so many other products that I tried primarily because I wanted to have a task and productivity tool that allowed me to re-envision my 'data' at the task level. I wanted to be able to have Gantt views and dashboard views and then dive in deeper with comments …
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is more efficient than all of these tools combined. Trello only has one type of view, kanban. You can't customize it to list, dashboard, or calendar. Notion is much harder to manage my company's departments and connect everything like ClickUp. Notion doesn't have the …
Chose ClickUp
More customization and ease of use.
Chose ClickUp
It combines them all with a user friendly interface and a really nice workflow. It keeps work in as less places as possible which makes it easy for new colleagues.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp has the best UX by far. It also has the most necessary features and the fewest unnecessary features.
Chose ClickUp
Clickup feels a lot more complete and professional.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp's features were far superior in terms of what we could do for project management and flexible enough we could adjust it to our use case. We found Notion too basic and Monday.com too restrictive. ClickUp is the perfect blend of what we need and their new features often …
Chose ClickUp
I did not make the decision to move to ClickUp, but I did provide feedback and hear feedback from our internal team about how ClickUp centralizes a lot of the company wides resources into one space. I feel that ClickUp provides more dynamic workflow building beyond Jira and …
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is definitely a marked improvement in just about every way from Redmine. UI, functionalities, usability- all of it has been a much better experience in ClickUp. As for JIRA and AirTable, I think ClickUp's overall layout and organization style trumps those sites by …
Chose ClickUp
We liked ClickUp for the flexibility, the ease of set up, ClickUp university, and the price.
Chose ClickUp
All of them are based on activity management, however ClickUp stands out in several areas: integrations with other tools, management of several spaces simultaneously through views/dashboards, the vast majority of the tools listed do not allow me to have visibility of everything …
Chose ClickUp
Notion, Clickup is easier and it is better looking
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp is by far the most easy to use, superb interface and functionality. The notifications are far superior too.
Chose ClickUp
The best feature of ClcikUp over others is it's customization as well as hierarchy. Departments, clients, operations become easier to manage if the hierarchy is setup in a good way that can allow your business scale without altering it repeatedly.
Customization is another …
Chose ClickUp
It has been probably around 4 years. A big part of the decision between monday and ClickUp (CU) when we decided on a platform was the pricing model of CU was more suitable. There has been massive updates since we started using CU. So not sure how it stacks up now
Chose ClickUp
Much more flexible and complete, you can shape it for your liking.
Chose ClickUp
ClickUp can be very simple, yet very advanced. That helps us get started while providing something we can grow into as well, to avoid a future switch again.
Flowlu
Chose Flowlu
Just super easy to use in comparison to most
Chose Flowlu
For me, Plutio has a lot of functions and it is hard to understand in the short time. In the other hand, Flowlu has a great U.I and I spend less time learning, understand and process it. Also, I choose Flowlu because it supports to create multi company departments in one account.
Chose Flowlu
We have used other finance tools like Quicken. Flowlu may not have all the features as the others and is still maturing, it has all the basics we need. These other tools also do not have task/project management or HR tools which we can also use. This is the big plus. The …
Chose Flowlu
We previously used Bitrix24 and decided to switch to Flowlu because it offers a CRM with better features.
Another reason was the possibility of financial integration that allows setting up the invoice system and payment gateways, making it easier for our clients to order and …
Chose Flowlu
Essentially, Pipedrive is just a CRM system. On the other hand, Flowlu is a platform that combines CRM, Project management, and invoicing in one place.
Chose Flowlu
In the past, we used Asana and SuiteDash for a brief time and finally moved to Flowlu. Flowlu has a cleaner interface and is much more affordable compared to Asana
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu is all in one platform. Other platforms we being using are limited in features. Some of the software we have been using have strong CRM but very limited feature on project management, similarly tool we have been using for project management is limited in CRM, financing …
Chose Flowlu
ClickUp is an established project management tool we used and Flowlu just has so many more relevant features to actually run a company.
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu is a platform that helps you manage all of your operations with a single, central dashboard. Not only does Flowlu help with tasks like billing and inventory but it also provides workers with the ability to capture all their important data for later reference. It helps us …
Chose Flowlu
I just like it better, it is more logical, and feature-rich of course. CNAME is a big plus also.
Chose Flowlu
Although Omnifocus is a great software. It has reached a saturation point where there is little improvement happening in the last few years whereas flowlu is so open to new ideas and implements them quickly since being a web app.
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu was better than every alternative I explored. Flowlu is the above-average "jack of all trades" which covers most business aspects.

On the other hand, be it Wrike, MindMeister, Airtable or Trello boards, they serve well-defined use cases and primarily cover one business …
Chose Flowlu
I would like to say that although they are all great software, I prefer that I get a complete solution that covers my business needs for a fair price. The support that I have received from Flowlu is top of the line. The onboarding is great too. All in all a great software that …
Chose Flowlu
Ease of use wins every time. This was easy to learn and easy to use.
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu has a lot of great features that are especially helpful with project management and team/client communication. The mind maps in Flowlu are a particularly unique feature that's really awesome to use with projects. I like to use mind maps when creating sitemaps of planned …
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu offers an integrated solution that combines the power of CRM automation and project workflow templates, making all the difference when you want to manage customers journey from the moment they are still a cold lead until when they become a loyal customer. And the good …
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu is quick and easy to use, making it simple to configure and set up automations without a steep learning curve. To properly set up workflow automations in Dubsado and other CRMs, you'll need to devote a significant amount of time to tutorials and/or webinars, and even …
Chose Flowlu
SUITEDASH, DESKERA etc… can be a competitor… But Flowlu can stand on its own. With its generous stacking options, this will be a good alternative to the current apps in the market now.
Chose Flowlu
It is really difficult to find the right fit as far as automation because many solutions are not true automation and rather are semi automation wherein a human still needs to push buttons. It is our goal to remove as much of the button pushing as possible. We are still …
Chose Flowlu
Compared to Suitedash and Swell Flowlu is the more mature product, less buggy, more progressive and a team we are trusting on the long run. First of all we are impressed by the transparent positive communication of the Flowlu team, when confronted with critics. Trust is besides …
Chose Flowlu
Tried a few other CRM and one stop project/ client management solutions. Didn't use them more due to the following reasons:
1) Cost Involved - in using it for a long time
2) Technical Knowledge Required - to make use of newer features
Chose Flowlu
Plutio felt a bit disjointed and the UI had some issues, when reported it kind of went nowhere.
Chose Flowlu
Flowlu is easier to use and has more features, with more coming. Clickup feels like it's more 'open' for any type of business with a lot of customization, whereas Flowlu feels like it was created for niches like my own, yet it can easily and quickly be customized for any type …

Likelihood to Recommend
Great for project management, reoccurring task management, building trackers and keeping track of what everyone is up to. Like all software that has great functionality, having solid governance and control over access is essential. I recommend ensuring that your admins/owners have a close eye on what is going on across the space or it can turn into an unmanageable nightmare.

To manage the workflows of our business, we used a number of tools before we began using Flowlu. It combines CRM, project & task management, team communication, invoicing, and account management into a single tool. We are able to save a lot of time and effort by using this all-in-one solution.

Pros
  • Customization of fields in Tickets
  • Integrations with other sites such as Google, Figma, JIRA, and GitHub
  • Combining many apps into one- Ticketing, sprint tracking, form submissions, documentation, file management, and chats
  • Continual improvements. The ClickUp team is always making amazing strides to update the site and make it that much better for its users

  • The system of adding only the features you need by installing as separated modules makes it easy to learn without being overwhelmed by the lots of features.
  • I really like its structure and clear interface. Not wasting much time by searching for the right buttons and settings. Looks like the developers use their own tool for everyday work
  • Flowlu offers a custom domain option to fully integrate fully it into our company toolbox. This helps offering a seamless experience for our clients.
  • The elaborated invoice module was the final argument for us to switch to Flowlu.

Cons
  • Their chat feature was nonexistent, and a revamp was rolled out recently.
  • Their whiteboard function for visual collaboration feels clunky and difficult to use smoothly.
  • Their table view/feature (which is supposed to feel like a spreadsheet) is lacking and makes it difficult to copy/move information.

  • Flowlu should allow user to import their own invoice into app
  • Fellow should have their own email marketing system
  • It should integrate woo-commerce, a big e-commerce platform on WordPress. This will support users will in managing and sending emails to their customers.

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.

I have found Flowlu while searching [for] a collaborative tool for a friend's non-profit organization. As I read the description and made a trial test, I fell in love with the tool. So we are definitely going to renew. Not only because the delivered solutions are great but also because Flowlu's roadmap seems very [promising].

Usability
Far easier to use than any other PM tool. ClickUp is incredibly intuitive and had us saving time and energy within the first week of implementation. In my opinion, PM software should make it easier to focus on the deliverables - it shouldn't take all your time and energy to learn how to use the tool in the first place. ClickUp is a user-friendly tool that actually helps us focus on what's important.
Read full review
It is full of features, there are many ways to perform a single tasks. Overall the experience is great [up to] now, support is also good. We normally get support in a few hours. The best is that everything is very easy and self explanatory so we did not find any issue in onboarding and daily usability.

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.
Read full review
Support is highly responsive and receptive to feedback. There is an integrated live chat script which allows for intuitive and accessible communication. Beyond the official support channels, they also actively manage a Facebook group for other Flowlu users to share ideas and answer questions. Another big pro in my book is having a public roadmap.

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.

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.

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.

  • Creating new projects takes minutes rather than nearly an hour on some other apps.
  • I am probably saving 10+ hours per week on work these days because of how easy everything is to set up. Once I get all my training set up in the Knowledgebase I will save even more time.
