It looks pretty useful at first, but when trying it out, there are a few glaring problems with it. One of it is that you cant copy and paste cells. You are unable to highlight multiple cells in smartsuite which means you can delete multiple cells as well. This makes it a no go. Another one is that ctrl+z doesnt work in smartsuite. How do i undo an action then? Seems like they thought of more advanced features, but its basic features are severely lacking.

You may already have a video about this, but what would be the best way to transfer data (including attachments) from clickup to smartsuite? My biggest hurdle with clickup is user adoption. I think that people get confused by views sometimes just being different views of underlying tasks and other times they are documents or whiteboards or something completely different. Also, people get confused by the fact that tasks can be really anything, including notes. I'm definitely open to trying smartsuite

Hey Joseph! I were in your shoes, my action step would be to contact SmartSuite directly via their chatbot that appears in the corner when you log in. They're actually offering some insane amount of hands-on onboarding help for new users (that's totally free). I don't know for sure, but I imagine they could help you get your data swapped over. Alternatively, you could also use CSV export from ClickUp and CSV import from SmartSuite. :)

I use clickup although admittedly not as well as I could and I do love it. However my audience will not cope with clickup, they are definitely the group you describe in the video as not tech savvy or struggle to learn new tools, in fact most of them are die hard paper based people. I'm thinking Smart suite looks promising. Also as health professionals the permissions focus is very attractive. I'll be playing around with it more in a dummy environment my audience would typically use it for and see how it goes. Definitely keeping a close eye on this playlist to learn from you :)

@LaylaPomper Жыл бұрын
Hey Tacius! I think SmartSuite and ClickUp are focusing on different avatars. SmartSuite's main advantages are currently: ease of use, stability, ability to manage data vs. just tasks, and permissions/control. Meanwhile, ClickUp is better for flexibility, the generosity of their free plan, task management features, and a variety of innovative features like Whiteboard and Clip that aren't common in competitors. :) Both are great options, it really comes down to what you need most!

I think I’m giving up on clickup it’s just too clunky. The fact that you can actually do something with the roll ups, more than just have them displayed in another table.

1. Would Smartsuite be a reasonable software to compliment with Clickup? Or would they be too similar? I am thinking of using it to content creation and research. 2. When you need a doc-feature wit organising for the business, as for example course implementation and so on - would you reccommend one of these tools as a good enough alternative? Or would you recommend Evernote/Notion as a compliment?
@LaylaPomper Жыл бұрын
1. Yes! In that capacity, it can be a database complement. They have a several key overlaps of features (like My Work/task management) but I think for something as complicated as content creation there's an argument for splitting it up. 2. I personally think these tools can do a good enough job with Docs! However, if you need to write a novel or do really intensive research, I'd probably venture into Evernote, Notion, or even Obsidian. However, for normal note-taking and casual writing, I think this can fit the bill!
