Teamwork.com is a perfect fit for our agency
Ultimately it came down to ClickUp or Teamwork.com for us. Clickup needed someone to help set it all up AND it wasn’t as user friendly.

One platform to solve all your client operations challenges

Say goodbye to performance issues

Client work can be challenging — your project management platform shouldn’t be. Stop putting up with long load times, bugs, and over-hyped product releases that are just a new coat of paint on the same old product, and start spending more time delivering exceptional work for your clients. Because waiting for your PM tool to load doesn’t count as billable time.

Time tracking

Time tracking is the bread and butter of any business doing client work. Teamwork.com’s advanced time tracking features mean you’ll never miss a billable minute again. ClickUp’s time tracking requires you to set up a different app.

Reporting

Teamwork.com offers more robust reporting options than ClickUp to help you understand a project’s overall health, utilization, and performance. Built-in reports get you up and running fast. With ClickUp, you’ll need to build them yourself.

Profitability

With powerful tools to help you stay on (or under) budget, Teamwork.com helps you see how profitable you are at a glance. Unlike ClickUp, you can stay on top of every component of your budget in one centralized place.

How Teamwork.com helped Emplicit make its projects “as profitable as possible.”

Emplicit’s VP of agency production, Emily Lindahl, shares her experience on switching from ClickUp to Teamwork.com.

Transcript for the video 'Emily Lindahl On Switching From ClickUp To Teamwork (Wide)':

We did use Clickup in the past along with a few other different softwares. We really were looking for something that was going to improve our business and also our client's ability to scale with us. I would say everything lives and breathes in teamwork. Our directors of each department utilize the capacity planner to bring in a second set of hands, shift work around if someone is sick and out of the office. It's a way for them to go in, move it to someone else without having to mess up any deadlines or project plans. From a business standpoint, it really has given us less admin time. To focus on making things as profitable as possible.

Only one of these options was custom-built for client work

ClickUp, on the other hand, was built for everyone. The company is strictly focused on growth and user acquisition: this means features are often launched before they are fully tested and speed is prioritized over efficiency and smooth operation.

Wait, can I really manage ALL my client work in Teamwork.com?

Yes. That’s what Teamwork.com was built for. You can manage projects, track time, manage billing and invoicing, forecast budgets, handle complex scheduling and resource allocation, and so much more. In short, if your clients need it, we’ve got it. And of course, you can add an unlimited number of clients to Teamwork.com.

“Teamwork.com is the first project management tool that I've been able to get clients to actually use with me. I've tried Asana and Trello, and clients just ignored them.”
Rochelle Broder-SingerPresident/Chief Word Wrangler
But, does Teamwork.com have the level of customization I get with ClickUp?

Yes! Teamwork.com is extremely customizable. The difference is that our features are built, launched and prioritized slowly over time and are designed to complement and support each other.

“Teamwork.com felt more adaptable than Clickup — which was also feedback we were getting from people that tried both — With Teamwork.com we could adapt more to different ways of doing business and we were always evolving. Clickup felt more boxed in.”
Cathy EdisonManaging Director at HotDog PR agency
Does Teamwork.com replace all my apps like ClickUp promises to?

It can: but only if you want it to. We’ve designed multiple “suite-style” tools you can add: chat, spaces, and more. But sometimes, it’s better to integrate than replace: that’s why Teamwork.com also works with your favorite tools.

“With ClickUp, we would have had to integrate with many other tools. We just wanted a tool we could use as itself: one tool that does it all…”

I’m interested in Teamwork.com, but have more questions

I’m ready to see Teamwork.com in action. Can I get a demo?

Yes! If you want a demo, you’ve got two options. If you want to see how Teamwork.com works in general, you can watch one of our on-demand webinars. Or, you can get a personalized demo from one of our reps. (Just click the “I’d like a product demo” check box.)

Can I speak to someone on the team?

Definitely. Give us a call on +1 844 819 8453 or fill out this form and one of our team members will get in touch.

How do I know which plan is right for me?

If you’re reading this page, you probably have a pretty clear idea of which features your team needs to succeed. Most of our customers compare the features from their “wish list” against the features listed here under each plan. The plan that has the most of what you need or want is the winner. 
If you’re not sure what features you need or you’d like to know what’s best for a specific business like yours, give us a call on +1 844 819 8453 or fill out this form. (This does put you in touch with our sales team: they’ve helped thousands of people choose the best plan and they’d love to help you.)

I still have questions. HELP!

Need answers now? Give us a call on +1 844 819 8453 and we’ll help. If you don’t feel like talking today — but still need answers — fill out this form with your questions and someone will be in touch shortly.
