Yesterday we held our first meetup about ClickUp. Our community already includes 45 people interested in ClickUp and topics related to project management and planning. Around 20 ClickUp users gathered in front of their screens for the first meeting.
Since the group includes both beginners and power users, we established a common foundation. We showed what ClickUp is and what it can do – ClickUp offers a comprehensive range of features.
Not without reason, ClickUp’s claim is: “one app to replace them all”
The All-In-One Solution
In ClickUp, you document and organize the big W-questions:
- Who
- What
- When
- Why
- How
- Where
The advantage of ClickUp is that you enter all information about tasks to be completed once, and then you can display them with different views, filters, and levels of detail to immediately answer the above questions.
The information is transparent and easily accessible to all team members at any time.
From Simple to Complex
This flexibility and range of functions can be overwhelming at first. You might not know where to start. It’s therefore worthwhile to begin with a simple scenario in ClickUp and then literally grow with the tasks.
Perfect for Agencies
At the meetup yesterday, Haeme showed us how ClickUp is used at Morntag. All projects are recorded in one space. Each project then has a folder with different lists. To ensure that the overview is not lost, some higher-level boards provide orientation.
One of the higher-level boards represents the lifecycle of projects and acquisition. New leads are created here and documented until completion.
A large amount of information quickly accumulates on the boards. It’s good that all team members have their own inbox that filters out exactly the information that’s important for daily agency life from the vast amount of data.
While the Morntag team consists of 5 members, ClickUp can also be easily used in larger teams. At Edupartner, we organize the entire sprint planning for media production with about 20 specialists.
Our ClickUp Community
We here at the Publishing Blog are convinced by ClickUp and would like to share our knowledge and experiences in the community. That’s why we’ve created a meetup group that caters to both beginners and professionals.
We meet regularly, usually once a month. After yesterday’s kickoff, we will probably look at various use case scenarios live in the March meetup. The ClickUp professionals can show their settings and thus inspire the beginners.
Our next meetup is expected to take place on March 3, 2021. Interested parties can join the group at meetup.com and receive all information first-hand.
