Wow. I clicked on your channel an hour ago looking for this topic and didn't see anything. I come back and here it is. 😁

OMG, thank you for this video. finally someone did a deep dive into both platforms, and not just some surface level 3 min face value opinion piece. thank you thank you thank you.

Hurry Up and finish Part 2 already. I'm on CU, I'm not going to bother with Monday as I am still learning CU, but your comparisons on the two is working as a tutorial on some items and allows me to step back and consider new ways I can use clickup. I've never been a great project manager, a great ideas person, but clickup is helping me navigate through a project. Than you so much. Love the vid!

Come on! hierarchy is the main reason why we switched from Monday to ClickUp. ClickUp's hierarchy is super helpful in getting an overall view of all your tasks, and in creating your daily to-do list. We found this to be impossible with Monday. Hierarchy is the main competitive advantage of ClickUp over Monday. Well, that, recurring tasks and subtasks (I don't know if they added but they didn't have subtasks about 1.5 years ago).

This is a very fair assessment of both tools! Thank you, Layla. I love Monday and I love ClickUp. Monday has lesser downtime than ClickUp but I love that ClickUp has live chat available most times of the day.

I cannot find enough words to thank you for this amazing video ... Love your voice!

Price is why I picked ClickUp three years ago.

Glad it was less, because it's an azomg compnay that will always help with any issue.

Always improving.

I've done a comparison of Monday and ClickUp before, and if you're looking for a really clean interface Monday is a winner, but if you're looking for MORE functionality, I would recommend Clickup. I also really hate how sub-tasks look in Monday, where they look like separate tasks altogether -- it just doesn't look like sub-tasks so its very confusing.

Brilliant comparison and help us to get the right direction, appreciate your time in order to create this video :)

[cheeyuenchan]

fantastic effort as usual - u r truly the guru - looking forward to part2~!

[wildfoxcreative]

Keen to see part two. Thanks for this video Layla, very useful!

I might not be a most practical person, so for me it is always - design first 🙂So went the Monday route. In fact, we looked into the likes of Jira, Asana, Smartsheets and Click-up too. Ideally we wanted to stay with the MS toolset (Planner, Sharepoint, Project), but in MS case, it is a real mess. As some other part of the corporate is using Click-up already, I have tried to give it few chances, but its visual aesthetics and UI clutter put me really off 😞

But there are things I don't like about Monday either - the Item card (overview) allows just for one column design. When you want to create a summary board of your projects, it allows only 20 boards to be aggregated with the Pro licence. Even an Enterprise plan allows only 50, which still might not be sufficient, so you need to really think about the hierarchy and plan ahead accordingly. We are also used to the checklists (as MS Planner users). In Monday, those are stupidly hidden in the Rich-text editor ....

Layla, your video and the narrative skills are really excellent. I have enjoyed it very much, thank you 🙂

Great comparison video. Well explained and fair. I did compare both on my own for months. For my case, price/value click-up was my choice.

[RezanLevandovych]

Monday is my preference all the way! Clear and straight forward features, easy to use and learn and has CRM functionality and not just for tasks.

[SergentTiToo]

As many people, we started with Monday, then switched to ClickUp as we needed more functionnality.
After 2 years of using it, I feel like Clickup does a great job at Project Portfolio management whereas most softwares become messy when you are trying to manage a large number of projects. In my case, a team of 15 working on about 120 projects.

[AaronCCorbin]

This was awesome. Thank you Layla for such a detailed and thoughtful comparison of the two tools!

[GordonJohansen]

Nice comparison of those three areas. I've seen ads for Monday but when I checked, I too did not like the pricing structure. Perhaps I missed it but the ability to add guests in Clickup is a huge plus in my mind, especially with Monday's higher prices.

[monicasharman]

I was previously with Monday & I really loved its ease of use. I switched to CU because of some of the added functions and the price. I have a team of 3-5. What I dislike about CU is that it does so much (but nothing perfectly) that it has a HUGE learning curve. This means its harder to get buy in and regular use from my staff. To be honest l would switch back to Monday today but the “products” has me stumped. As you mentioned l need to run a crm, and my staff need to manage projects (and we all use gantt charts so l need to use 2 products at a min? How do they accommodate this? Also one of the feature I love and use so much in CU is the chrome add-on to clip web pages and add emails as tasks. Can Monday do this?

[digwillhachi]

I love Monday but their pricing isnt for self employed people. They basically dont want us as customers. Took me a while to get used to ClickUp but love it now.

[mehuljoisar]

Thanks for the video. Do you think clickup will be having better stability in upcoming weeks by any chance ? or should we switch to Monday?
