We recently moved from JIRA to Clickup for task management. Their workload view is simply awesome.
It allows me to see how my team members are occupied at a glance.
I moved mainly because of the pricing. My team member size is 13 and JIRA got only 10 seats in the free version after adding 7 members, it does not allow me to add more.
I used JIRA, Work Management, and confluence.
When I wanted to pay JIRA, I see I got to pay separately for each of their software. Per member per month. That's a lot.
The learning curve was not long for Clickup, but diverting all team members with different technological backgrounds was a tough decision to make.
You know in the automobile sector in Bangladesh, there are a lot of workforces who do not have an academic background.
Moreover, I follow the agile methodology in the automotive sector in Bangladesh!
It was tough to navigate everyone on the team.
However, Clickups got all of the features that a person without an academic background can follow too. Pretty dope.
Clickup did lots of marketing before. Their constant marketing bombardment made me sick of them.
However, $5 per user per month to run sprint, normal task management, and documentation is life-saving for me.
Though I still use their free version as there are no user limits. Surely I will pay them after a while.
Before choosing this platform I tried several others including local software, but that did not serve the purpose.
Pretty much all the component at Palki Motors runs by software.
- Hubspot with automated sales funnel.
- Clickup for project management and documentation.
- CashBook for simple accounting.
- Google Workspace for email, and calendar.
- PiHR for HR
- Slack for team communication
Crazy thing is that my whole team uses those daily.
It is tough to implement the habit to use software, but I force it.
After forcing sometimes the team members see the benefits.
Having software in a company is easy, but making sure everyone uses it daily and properly it is tough.
It's the management's responsibility to patiently force good habits in a company.
