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.
Zenhub
Chose Zenhub
Zenhub is purpose built for Github users and provides just the tools you need to run Agile sprints without any extra complexity or fluff. Azure is a much more "enterprise" solution in which you drown in all of the available options, very similar story with Jira (pricing is also …
Chose Zenhub
Zenhub partners with Github and it's nice to use both in tandem, ultimately Zenhub has the project management capabilities we were looking for. Additionally Zenhub has a really user-friendly platform that is intuitive and not much training was required for any of the team …
Chose Zenhub
The only other program we tried that had somewhat seamless integration with our GitHub projects is GitKraken's Globoards. Globoards has a long way to go to compete, though it does have a read-only option for boards so it can be displayed corporately as an information radiator …
Chose Zenhub
I have used Workfront in the past, which in my experience, is best with a traditional waterfall methodology, similar to Microsoft Project and the other more traditional project management software projects. ZenHub is truly designed around the agile methodology. Other products …
Chose Zenhub
Way better than competition if you use github because it seamlessly integrates without doing anything. You don't need to duplicate your issues, etc. As long as your devs already use github and github issues this will be a no brainer and simple to implement. With JIRA or Trello …

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.

Zenhub is incredible for the below areas: Burndown Charts, Release Reports, Velocity Tracking, Control Points Charts, Cumulative Flow Diagrams And if there is a bottleneck in your workflow, ZenHub identifies it. The most important aspect is serving as a collaboration tool for areas that are impeding implementation projects. For example when working with non-standard ERPs and having to document ERP integrations this tool is very helpful

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

  • ZenHub continually adds to its reporting suite-- that truly allows you to track forward motion and see what issues may be the cause of any delays.
  • Both our technical and non-technical staff can understand and use the functionality.
  • We like the flexibility of being able to provide labels to our stories that can be customized to the way our company does things--- such as knowing if an epic is part of a module or a stream.
  • We also like the flexibility of the number and labeling of the pipelines--- again, very adaptable to our organization.
  • The filtering is very useful--- with and/or conditions, and allows people on different projects, doing different functions, an easy way to view what is important to them.

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.

  • Sometimes, updates to a GitHub project can get lost if they're made through ZenHub. You do need to open the GitHub project occasionally, as you don't have exactly the same ability to modify issues and milestones from within ZenHub.
  • It's great to be able to see your projects from within ZenHub, but sometimes you'll need to check in on the GitHub project itself, as well.
  • I've run into some problems with updates getting lost on occasion. I think this happens when you do the update from within ZenHub instead of from GitHub itself. I also don't have quite as much control over my issues or milestones from within ZenHub.

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.

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.

Once it's up and running it's easy to use. It needs a little consideration to get set up perfectly for your own needs, but that is the same for any feature-rich software.

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 good, but quite honestly, I haven't needed any support since 2015. As I remember, I was required to open a ticket and had to wait a few days for resolution. I give it a rating of 8 because of the lag in getting a solid resolution, but it was resolved adequately.

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.

Every other tool I have used has been for organizing tasks and work only. There were some of the other features, but none of them had the ability to do everything we need to manage a project from start to finish

Way better than competition if you use github because it seamlessly integrates without doing anything. You don't need to duplicate your issues, etc. As long as your devs already use github and github issues this will be a no brainer and simple to implement.

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.
