Everything you need to get your work done

Built for client work
ClickUp is new and sold to everyone. Its mission is to change productivity for every business, everywhere, and its $537.5 million in funding has led to a bloated feature-set. The result? It’s too confusing for small businesses and too simplistic for enterprise.
Teamwork was founded in ‘07 and designed its feature set around your client service needs. Every new feature is built, launched, and prioritized so it complements and supports existing workflows. This leads to software that’s intuitive, easy to use, and helps you painlessly manage all client work in one place. We even have a specific plan for agencies.

Scales with your business
ClickUp is disorganized. Its approach to growth is haphazard: adding document features, chat, mind-mapping, and project management into one giant platform. This lack of structure hurts visibility into your projects: vital tasks and key priorities get lost in the chaos and you’re left feeling overwhelmed. Again.
Teamwork takes a scalable approach to growth. Our project management platform is clean, simple, and only includes what you need. This way, you can easily see the big picture. And, to help you grow, we built stand-alone options like desk, chat, CRM, and spaces that help teams do more without overwhelming the workflow.

Easy to use from day one
ClickUp is unfinished and confusing. The paying customer is the ultimate beta user: live-testing the string of new features and building workflows on the go. This makes onboarding chaotic and unpredictable.
Teamwork is simple to set up. Everything you need to start is there the second you log in, with Teamwork Academy to guide you through. And our experienced customer support team is always here to help.

How Teamwork helped Starburst Business Solutions grow by 66%
The right project management solution doesn’t just streamline the way you run projects. It creates peace of mind. And when you’re not stuck in the weeds, you can grow something extraordinary. Coincidentally, that’s exactly what Starburst Business Solutions did.

Now that you’ve seen the features, how do ClickUp and Teamwork’s plans compare?
Right now, ClickUp is all about growth and user acquisition. When you raise a round of $400 million, investors expect major returns. To hit their target, they’ve kept their plans priced for growth. But all good things end… and unlike ClickUp, our plans are going to stay competitive. Because they have been that way since ‘07.

We’ve converted fully to Teamwork, using it for project management and internal operations. Teamwork gives us more agility: more real time updates, better communication paths and saves us time…
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.
Yes. That’s what Teamwork 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.

Yes! Teamwork 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.

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