Construction & project management

ClickUp

ClickUp is a work management platform that puts tasks, documents, chat, whiteboards, dashboards, time tracking and automations in one workspace. It is sold to teams that would otherwise run several separate tools, and pitched as software to replace other software.

Work is organized into spaces, folders and lists, with board, timeline and Gantt views, forms for intake, sprint points and reporting, portfolio and workload management, and rule-based automations. Integrations cover Slack, HubSpot, Google Drive, Salesforce, Make and others, and API access is rate-limited by plan. AI is sold as a separate add-on layered on any plan, covering an assistant, agents, an AI notetaker, AI-driven automations and dashboards, and metered with a monthly credit allowance shared across the workspace.

Billing is per user and per workspace rather than per person, so an upgrade applies to every member of that workspace and an organization with several workspaces upgrades each one separately. The Free Forever tier includes 60MB of storage, unlimited free plan members and two-factor authentication. Unlimited adds unlimited spaces, folders, forms, Gantt charts, integrations and custom fields; Business adds dashboards with advanced cards, webhooks, sprint reporting and SMS two-factor authentication; Enterprise adds SAML SSO and SCIM provisioning, custom roles, data residency options and access to managed services.

List prices are published but AI plans sit on top of them, so the effective cost depends on how many AI credits a team burns through. ClickUp publishes a 30-day refund window, prorated billing when paid users are added mid-cycle, and discounts for nonprofits, students, educators and startups.

Best for

Common questions

Can one person upgrade, or does the whole workspace have to upgrade?
The whole workspace upgrades. ClickUp applies a paid plan to every member of a workspace, and payment is per workspace, so an organization running several workspaces has to upgrade each one individually.
What is ClickUp's refund policy?
ClickUp publishes a 100% satisfaction guarantee. A customer who is not satisfied for any reason can say so within 30 days of purchase and receive a full refund.
How is billing handled when paid users are added mid-cycle?
New paid users are billed at a prorated price based on the time left in the billing cycle. Paid users include member role types and people invited to the workspace from within the organization.
Are discounts available for nonprofits, students or educators?
Yes. ClickUp states that it offers discounts for nonprofits, students, educators and startups, with separate application links for each group on its pricing page.
What payment methods does ClickUp accept?
All major credit cards. For Enterprise orders that meet a minimum, ClickUp also accepts bank transfers.
