Second, ActiveCollab had awesome customer service when I had any issues or questions. This was a big plus because I then knew I was in good hands.
Instead of resorting to emails fir such clients (which is soooo ineffective and frustrating where project management is concerned), you can get such clients up and running quickly with ActiveCollab.
Moreover, I really admire it because it has rich planning features and also high configuration abilities that automatically streamline my projects into a useful way.
Out of the box it is missing things that I would have expected to be present.
Its really easy to use, it has awesome features to create time and ticket reports, if you want to keep track of your time and tickets it is a perfect tool.
We ended up transferring from ActiveCollab to Teamwork fairly quickly because it caused some business problems for us.
I really like the ability to track time, tasks and progress all in one tool. And the speed in which I can spin up a new project is pretty great.
Simple UI, even a stupid person may understand after simple guidance.
It gives our employees different options for what view works best for them for the tasks they're doing, the interface is beautiful, the customer service is great -- very responsive.
Everything is too much grey in grey, they have pain to read (and they hate the dark mode! It's depressing!) the font is too small.
We´re loving the free version and are seriously considering to upgrade. We are a relatively small team, but we´re growing and Clickup so far is looking great for our organization.
Replying via email sometimes not working so i need to use discord for communication.
ClickUp is a great tool for small and mid-sized marketing teams to keep all their projects organized. The best and most important feature we use is custom properties.
Sometime it is pushing unnecessary reminders which are so irritating.
I think the ease of use, i like the simplicity of having it served as a SaaS so i can login whenever i want and get collaboration done. There is also a function to make it work in Msft Teams - great.
When adding new tickets/cards to my boards, I often experienced delays. A couple of times some of the cards I've just added were lost.
Ricardo: Hi, my name's Ricardo. I'm CEO. I give ActiveCollab a five star rating. For more ratings like this click the link below. Before ActiveCollab I was using Trello, which was doing the job all right. But after using Collab for a short time, I realized that it is was more beneficial for our company to use. I chose ActiveCollab because of the ease of use for the communication between our team. Everyone understood how to use it perfectly clearly. That's why we decided to stay with ActiveCollab. When we first started using ActiveCollab we were up and running within a few hours. We had all our projects posted, all of our tasks posted, and the team was already logged in and everyone had their account created. Before we knew it, we were sending messages to each other, adding notes and comments. We've been moving forward since then. My recommendation for any company or someone that's out there looking for a collaboration software such as ActiveCollab is to go ahead and go for it. You're not going to regret it. You're going to have a good time with your team on there. Easy communication, fast tasks, fast comments, email notifications. I highly recommend it.
Cassandra: My name is Cassandra. I am a market content specialist at Bloom Growth, and our company is around 75 people big, and I would give ClickUp a five out of five. I've used a lot of different project management tools such as Asana, Trello, Monday, JIRA, and all of them pale in comparison. ClickUp really is superior and it's my project management tool of choice. The reasons that I choose ClickUp are kind of far and in between. I was one of the first adopters of ClickUp years ago and used it as a free user for a very long time and got so much value out of it. And as I changed jobs, I changed project management tools and nothing was as good as ClickUp. I would always tell my managers, "Hey, I know we're using this project management tool, but couldn't we maybe try ClickUp? You can try it for free, and then you'll fall in love and understand that you don't want to use the other tools." And the company that I'm with now, they did that and we're seeing great results because of it. The reason that I personally choose ClickUp not only for work, I use it in my personal life too. You can label things, you can categorize things. There's just so many different options to customize your project management. Gantt charts, lists, boards, different views, different colors. Just if you're a visual person and want to see your boards and lists and things to do in a different way, in a way that resonates with you, maybe your project is pink and all you're looking for is pink. You can do that with ClickUp and I really appreciate that. And the new tools, like the ClickUp Brain. Game changer, it helps my work so much, saves me time. And yeah, I think that's it. When I first started using ClickUp, it was essential that we managed all of our projects and I found it very simple to manage them through ClickUp. It was intuitive and easy to use. It was easy to customize things to what I needed to do. At the time, I was using spreadsheets to use data entry points, and all I would have to do is update the CSV and upload that to ClickUp. And all of my tasks magically got there and it just made my workflow so much easier. And as a manager at the time, it was really easy to teach to my incoming employees and just show them how simple it was to use. So from day one, it was just, "We use ClickUp, this is how you use it."There were hardly ever any questions. And if there were the support was there. I would hop into the chat and somebody would be with me really quickly, which kind of blew my mind because you don't usually get that. But ClickUp has been at the top of the game, in my opinion, since the beginning and since I started using it. If you're considering using ClickUp for your company, I'd say go ahead and do it. Don't wait. You'll be happy that you did. There are so many project management tools out there that will promise you productivity because of their project management platform. I've used a lot of them, and ClickUp is the one I always come back to. It's like it's home.
