Pros & Cons

What We Like

  • Feature-rich at every price

    Even the free plan includes features like unlimited tasks, docs, and whiteboards that competitors charge premium prices for.

  • Unlimited free users

    Unlike most tools with user limits, ClickUp's free tier allows unlimited team members—you only pay for advanced features.

  • Native time tracking

    Built-in time tracking eliminates the need for separate tools like Toggl or Harvest, keeping everything in one place.

  • Highly customizable views

    15+ view types let you see work as lists, boards, Gantt charts, calendars, or even mind maps based on your preference.

What Could Be Better

  • Can be overwhelming

    The sheer number of features and customization options can paralyze new users who just want a simple task manager.

  • Mobile app needs improvement

    The mobile experience doesn't match the desktop—navigation is clunky and some features are missing or hard to find.

  • Performance issues at scale

    Large workspaces with thousands of tasks can experience slow load times and occasional sync delays.
