id=\"clickups-pricing-is-more-flexible\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp\u2019s pricing is more flexible<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the first things anyone looks at when choosing between 2 products is their price. Here\u2019s a side-by-side comparison of all the pricing plans of ClickUp and monday.com:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th rowspan=\"2\">Subscription plan<\/th><th colspan=\"2\">Paid annually<\/th><th colspan=\"2\">Paid monthly<\/th><\/tr><tr><th>ClickUp<\/th><th>monday.com<\/th><th>ClickUp<\/th><th>monday.com<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Free<\/td><td>$0<\/td><td>$0<\/td><td>$0<\/td><td>$0<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Unlimited\/Basic<\/td><td>$7\/user\/month<\/td><td>$9\/user\/month<\/td><td>$10\/user\/month<\/td><td>$12\/user\/month<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Business\/Standard<\/td><td>$12\/user\/month<\/td><td>$12\/user\/month (3 users minimum) + AI credits<br>(2,000 credits\/month = $20; 4,000 credits\/month = $40; 8,000 credits\/month = $80)<\/td><td>$19\/user\/month<\/td><td>$14\/user\/month (3 users minimum) + AI credits<br>(2,000 credits\/month = $25; 4,000 credits\/month = $50; 8,000 credits\/month = $100)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pro<\/td><td>\/<\/td><td>$$19\/user\/month (3 users minimum) + AI credits<br>(3,000 credits\/month = $30; 4,000 credits\/month = $40; 8,000 credits\/month = $80; 20,000 credits\/month = $200)<\/td><td>\/<\/td><td>$24\/user\/month (3 users minimum) + AI credits<br>(3,000 credits\/month = $37.5; 4,000 credits\/month = $50; 8,000 credits\/month = $100; 20,000 credits\/month = $250)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Enterprise<\/td><td>POA<\/td><td>POA<\/td><td>POA<\/td><td>POA<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Even though the prices are fairly similar, there are some crucial differences between the <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/plaky\/clickup-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">pricing models of ClickUp<\/a> and monday.com. Generally speaking, monday.com offers an additional pricing tier when compared to ClickUp. In total, that gives us 5 <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/plaky\/monday-com-pricing\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">monday.com\u2019s pricing plans<\/a>, while ClickUp offers 4.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"946\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.coms-team-size-picker.png\" alt=\"monday.com\u2019s team size picker\n\" class=\"wp-image-14947\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.coms-team-size-picker.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.coms-team-size-picker-381x300.png 381w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.coms-team-size-picker-1110x875.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.coms-team-size-picker-768x605.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.coms-team-size-picker-15x12.png 15w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">monday.com\u2019s team size picker<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickUp doesn\u2019t define team sizes, and you\u2019ll pay for as many paid users as you invite. However, you can\u2019t use monday.com\u2019s paid plans for less than 3 users, and you pay in increments of 5 or 10 users, regardless of how many team members you have on your account. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For instance, if you have 33 people on your team, you\u2019ll still have to pay for 40. The pricing isn\u2019t disclosed beyond this number, meaning you\u2019d have to contact sales to find out how much the app would cost you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When it comes to discounts for nonprofits, monday.com is more transparent with this information. It offers charities, nonprofits, and nongovernmental or social change organizations 10 free seats on its Pro plan and a 70% discount on extra seats. On the other hand, ClickUp does offer discounts to nonprofits and students, but you have to contact sales for details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1<strong>Plaky Pro Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Looking for the best project management tool for nonprofits?

Namely, ClickUp offers its AI features as an optional add-on, while monday.com has added AI to its Standard, Pro, and Enterprise plans as an obligatory paid feature.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This means that monday.com\u2019s Standard plan, which used to cost $12 seat\/month, now costs $12 seat\/month + $20, $40, or $80, depending on the number of AI credits you choose to purchase, and purchase them you must. In other words, you don\u2019t get to choose whether you get AI credits or not, you only get to choose how many you get, which makes ClickUp a much better option when it comes to pricing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<div class=\"container plaky-gradient-landing-2 pt-5 ps-lg-5 z-0 mb-5  \" >\n    <div class=\"d-flex flex-column flex-lg-row align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-between gap-1 gap-lg-5\">\n        <div class=\"banner-text text-center text-lg-start text-white\">\n            <span class=\"translation-block lh-1 fs-16 text-white\">\n                Free project management software            <\/span>\n            <p class=\"translation-block mw-300 fs-12 mb-2\">Invite an unlimited number of team members, create an unlimited number of project boards, and get pre-designed templates for every industry on Plaky by CAKE.com\u2019s free plan!<\/p>\n            <div class=\"cta-btns pt-4 d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-start gap-4 mb-4 mb-lg-0\">\n                <a aria-label=\"Sign up\" href=\"https:\/\/app.plaky.com\/signup\" class=\"btn rounded py-1 px-2 fs-12 btn-light\">\n                    Sign up                <\/a>\n                                <a aria-label=\"Download\" class=\"text-white px-2 fs-12\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/apps\">\n                    Download                <\/a>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <picture>\n            <source srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/landing-2@2x.png 2x\" alt=\"Plaky logo\" media=\"(min-width: 998px)\" \/>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"max-w-350 img-fluid \" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/landing-2.png\" alt=\"Plaky screenshot\" \/>\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"clickups-free-plan-offers-more-task-management-features\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp\u2019s free plan offers more task management features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you don\u2019t want to spend money on a PM app, you\u2019ll be interested in what the free plans of ClickUp and monday.com have to offer beyond their free trials. Here\u2019s a quick overview of the task management features and limitations of both:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Feature<\/th><th>ClickUp<\/th><th>monday.com<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Number of members<\/td><td>Unlimited<\/td><td>2<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Storage<\/td><td>60 MB<\/td><td>500 MB<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Activity log<\/td><td>1 day<\/td><td>1 week<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Project views<\/td><td>List, Table, Kanban, Calendar<\/td><td>Table, Kanban<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Tasks\/items<\/td><td>Unlimited<\/td><td>200 (up to 1,000 with referrals)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Automations<\/td><td>5 Active Rules, 100 Automation executions<\/td><td>\u274c<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Time tracking<\/td><td>Trial<\/td><td>\u274c<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Dependencies<\/td><td>\u2714\ufe0e<\/td><td>\u274c<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Obviously, ClickUp is more generous with their free plan and can be used for smaller projects or personal use. The only feature where monday.com beats ClickUp is the storage space, as it offers 500 MB compared to ClickUp\u2019s modest 60 MB.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for task management options in general, both ClickUp and monday.com offer basic and advanced features such as:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Multiple project views,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Custom task fields,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Assigning tasks and setting a due date, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating recurring tasks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Recurring tasks are a vital part of task management for any <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/project-management\/what-project-managers-do\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project manager<\/a>, as they cut manual work and often serve as reminders for some activities. These 2 apps let you create recurring tasks in different ways.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In ClickUp, all you have to do is open the date picker and add a recurrence if necessary. This feature is available on all ClickUp plans, including the free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1032\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Creating-a-recurring-task-in-ClickUp.png\" alt=\"Recurring tasks in ClickUp\" class=\"wp-image-14949\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Creating-a-recurring-task-in-ClickUp.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Creating-a-recurring-task-in-ClickUp-349x300.png 349w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Creating-a-recurring-task-in-ClickUp-1110x955.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Creating-a-recurring-task-in-ClickUp-768x660.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Creating-a-recurring-task-in-ClickUp-14x12.png 14w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Creating a recurring task in ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday.com, on the other hand, solves this through automations. You can create an automation that will repeat a task as needed. Automations, however, are not available on monday.com\u2019s free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"monday-com-is-easier-to-set-up\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Monday.com is easier to set up<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">From the moment I opened these 2 apps, it was clear that monday.com\u2019s interface is much more user-friendly than ClickUp\u2019s. Even though the main focus of both tools is on <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/what-is-task-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">task management<\/a> and the feature set is similar, monday.com offers a much simpler interface, and it\u2019s less intimidating to get a project started.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday.com displays only the essential options, which makes it much easier to set up.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"727\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-view-of-a-project-in-monday.com_.png\" alt=\"Table view in monday.com\n\" class=\"wp-image-14952\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-view-of-a-project-in-monday.com_.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-view-of-a-project-in-monday.com_-495x300.png 495w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-view-of-a-project-in-monday.com_-1110x672.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-view-of-a-project-in-monday.com_-768x465.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-view-of-a-project-in-monday.com_-18x12.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Table view of a project in monday.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To compare, ClickUp\u2019s workspace is not as pleasing to the eye. The cluttered look may be partially my fault, as I checked almost all the feature boxes when I was onboarding the app. I had no idea they would all end up pinned on the menu on the left. This menu can be modified, though, and you can unpin features as you like, but I can\u2019t shake the overwhelming feeling this interface is giving me.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"423\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Project-board-in-ClickUp.png\" alt=\"Project board in ClickUp\" class=\"wp-image-14955\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Project-board-in-ClickUp.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Project-board-in-ClickUp-730x257.png 730w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Project-board-in-ClickUp-1110x391.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Project-board-in-ClickUp-768x271.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Project-board-in-ClickUp-18x6.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Project board in ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h3 id=\"both-clickup-and-monday-com-offer-advanced-pm-features\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Both ClickUp and monday.com offer advanced PM features<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The list of options ClickUp and monday.com offer to view your projects is surprisingly long. Here are all the views they both provide:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Table,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Kanban,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Gantt,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Calendar,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Doc,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Workload,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Chart,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whiteboard (monday.com\u2019s equivalent is WorkCanvas),<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Form,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Map,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Timeline, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Dashboard.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickUp also includes a list view, team view, and mindmap, while monday.com has a chart view, cards view, and files view as well. I have to add that ClickUp also offers more board views on their free plan. Specifically, unlike monday.com, ClickUp lets you use the Calendar and List views on their free plan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the great additions to ClickUp\u00a0and monday.com I found very useful is the Whiteboard\/WorkCanvas feature that lets you draw on a virtual board, connect it with existing tasks, and illustrate your thoughts. This is a wonderful tool for remote teams and for brainstorming that eliminates the need to use other apps for the same purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"610\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Whiteboard-feature-in-ClickUp.png\" alt=\"Whiteboard in ClickUp\" class=\"wp-image-14957\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Whiteboard-feature-in-ClickUp.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Whiteboard-feature-in-ClickUp-590x300.png 590w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Whiteboard-feature-in-ClickUp-1110x564.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Whiteboard-feature-in-ClickUp-768x390.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Whiteboard-feature-in-ClickUp-18x9.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Whiteboard feature in ClickUp<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both monday.com and ClickUp enable their users to closely track project and team progress through customizable dashboards that feature summarized results using pie and column charts.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Customizing-a-card-in-ClickUps-Dashboard.png\" alt=\"Customizing a card in ClickUp\u2019s Dashboard\" class=\"wp-image-14959\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Customizing-a-card-in-ClickUps-Dashboard.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Customizing-a-card-in-ClickUps-Dashboard-632x300.png 632w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Customizing-a-card-in-ClickUps-Dashboard-1110x527.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Customizing-a-card-in-ClickUps-Dashboard-768x365.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Customizing-a-card-in-ClickUps-Dashboard-18x9.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Customizing a card in ClickUp\u2019s Dashboard<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Another feature offered by these 2 apps that is very useful for managing resources and projects is the Workload view. It lets you see who\u2019s available and who\u2019s overwhelmed with tasks. With this overview, it\u2019s easier to schedule assignments and plan ahead better.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"964\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9.png\" alt=\"Workload management in monday.com\n\" class=\"wp-image-14961\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9.png 1920w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9-598x300.png 598w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9-1110x557.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9-768x386.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9-1536x771.png 1536w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/image9-18x9.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Workload management in monday.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group pro-tip\"><div class=\"wp-block-group__inner-container is-layout-constrained wp-block-group-is-layout-constrained\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\ud83d\udca1 <strong>Plaky Pro Tip<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Curious about how ClickUp compares to other apps? You\u2019ll find detailed comparisons in these articles:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/clickup-vs-asana\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">ClickUp vs. Asana<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/plaky-vs-clickup\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Plaky vs. ClickUp<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"clickup-is-more-transparent-with-its-ai-prices\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp is more transparent with its AI prices<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Almost every <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/task-management\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">task management tool<\/a> has started adding AI features to their offer, and ClickUp and monday.com are no exception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickUp manages its AI features through add-ons. All paid plans are AI compatible, meaning you can purchase the AI add-on and expand your feature set.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here\u2019s the overview of ClickUp\u2019s AI pricing plans:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table class=\"has-fixed-layout\"><thead><tr><th>Pricing plan<\/th><th>Yearly subscription<\/th><th>Monthly subscription<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Free forever<\/td><td>$0 (trial)<\/td><td>$0 (trial)<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>AI Standard<\/td><td>$9\/user\/month<\/td><td>$14\/user\/month<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Everything AI<\/td><td>$28\/user\/month<\/td><td>$33\/user\/month<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can also purchase:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The Talk to Text add-on for an extra $9\/user\/month \u2014 for voice dictation,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The AI Notetaker for $12\/user\/month \u2014 for smart summaries and searchable transcripts, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>AI Super Credits \u2014 $10 for 10k credits.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">To compare, monday.com doesn\u2019t offer any AI credits on their Free plan. Their cheapest paid plan includes 1,000 AI credits\/month at no additional charge, but without the option to buy more. The only way to get more monthly credits is to move up to a higher paid tier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for monday.com\u2019s Standard, Pro, and Enterprise plans, AI credits can be purchased per month, regardless of the number of users you have. Here\u2019s the breakdown of AI credits costs per paid tier in monday.com:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Pricing plan<\/th><th>Yearly subscription<\/th><th>Monthly subscription<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>Standard<\/td><td>2,000 credits\/month = $20; 4,000 credits\/month = $40; 8,000 credits\/month = $80<\/td><td>2,000 credits\/month = $25; 4,000 credits\/month = $50; 8,000 credits\/month = $100<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Pro<\/td><td>3,000 credits\/month = $30; 4,000 credits\/month = $40; 8,000 credits\/month = $80; 20,000 credits\/month = $200<\/td><td>3,000 credits\/month = $37.5; 4,000 credits\/month = $50; 8,000 credits\/month = $100; 20,000 credits\/month = $250<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>Enterprise<\/td><td>Starts with 20,000 credits<\/td><td>Starts with 20,000 credits<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"clickup-offers-integrations-to-all-pricing-plans\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp offers integrations to all pricing plans<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both ClickUp and monday.com offer hundreds of integrations with other apps that allow you to connect all the information you need.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once again, we can see that monday.com excludes its free and Basic pricing plans from using integrations, while ClickUp offers its 47 native integrations (including Zapier and Google Calendar) to all its plans, free or paid.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"352\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.com-integrations-grouped-by-type.png\" alt=\"monday.com integrations\n\" class=\"wp-image-14964\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.com-integrations-grouped-by-type.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.com-integrations-grouped-by-type-730x214.png 730w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.com-integrations-grouped-by-type-1110x326.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.com-integrations-grouped-by-type-768x225.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/monday.com-integrations-grouped-by-type-18x5.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">monday.com integrations grouped by type<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday.com has 200+ native integrations, but limits them across its more expensive paid plans in the following way:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Standard plan \u2014 250 actions\/month,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Pro plan \u2014 25,000 actions\/month, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enterprise plan \u2014 250,000 actions\/month.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u200b\u200b\n<div class=\"container plaky-gradient-bundle pt-5 ps-lg-5 z-0 mb-5  \" >\n    <div class=\"d-flex flex-column flex-lg-row align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-between gap-1 gap-lg-5\">\n        <div class=\"banner-text text-center text-lg-start text-white\">\n            <span class=\"translation-block lh-1 fs-16 text-white\">\n                Improve your collaboration with CAKE.com Bundle            <\/span>\n            <p class=\"translation-block mw-300 fs-12 mb-2\">Need more?

All other security features are available only to higher paid tiers. Starting from cheaper plans, let\u2019s break down ClickUp\u2019s option first and then do the same for monday.com.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickUp\u2019s Business users get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Required 2-factor authentication, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Google single sign-on (SSO).<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickUp\u2019s Enterprise accounts get all the available security features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>US, EU &amp; APAC Data Residency,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Microsoft, custom SAML, and Okta SSO,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIPAA compliance, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SCIM provisioning.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enterprise users also get more control over their data with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Custom roles and permissions,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Private spaces,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Session Management,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Guest restrictions, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Restricted public sharing.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, let\u2019s explore monday.com and their offer. The free, Basic, and Standard plans are excluded from any additional features apart from the ones mentioned above. So, let\u2019s take a look at the 2 top paid plans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Those who are subscribed to the Pro plan get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Private boards and docs,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Board administrators, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Google authentication.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enterprise users, however, get many more features:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Okta, One login, Azure AD, Custom SAML SSO,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>HIPAA compliance,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>IP restrictions,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>SCIM provisioning, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Panic mode.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for data control, monday.com\u2019s Enterprise accounts also get:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Advanced account permissions,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Integration permissions,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Private workspaces,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Session Management, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Audit log.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\n<div class=\"container plaky-gradient-landing-1 pt-5 ps-lg-5 z-0 mb-5  \" >\n    <div class=\"d-flex flex-column flex-lg-row align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-between gap-1 gap-lg-5\">\n        <div class=\"banner-text text-center text-lg-start text-white\">\n            <span class=\"translation-block lh-1 fs-16 text-white\">\n                Free ClickUp alternative            <\/span>\n            <p class=\"translation-block mw-300 fs-12 mb-2\">If you're considering ClickUp \u2014 try Plaky, for an unlimited number of spaces, files and teams.<\/p>\n            <div class=\"cta-btns pt-4 d-flex align-items-center justify-content-center justify-content-lg-start gap-4 mb-4 mb-lg-0\">\n                <a aria-label=\"Sign up\" href=\"https:\/\/app.plaky.com\/signup\" class=\"btn rounded py-1 px-2 fs-12 btn-light\">\n                    Sign up                <\/a>\n                                <a aria-label=\"Learn more\" class=\"text-white px-2 fs-12\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\">\n                    Learn more                <\/a>\n                            <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n        <picture>\n            <source srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/landing-1@2x.png 2x\" alt=\"Plaky logo\" media=\"(min-width: 998px)\" \/>\n            <img decoding=\"async\" class=\"max-w-350 img-fluid \" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/themes\/cake-blog\/theme\/images\/banners\/landing-1.png\" alt=\"Plaky screenshot\" \/>\n        <\/picture>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n    <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"whats-better-clickup-or-monday-com\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What\u2019s better: ClickUp or monday.com?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s hard to reach the final verdict in the ClickUp vs. monday.com battle without making a distinction between different use cases. No app is perfect for everyone, so I broke down the benefits for these 3 groups of users:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Developers,<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Marketing teams, and<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Small businesses.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"clickup-vs-monday-com-for-developers\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp vs. monday.com for developers<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When looking for a tool to organize their work, software development teams concentrate on those apps that offer a way to sort their ticketing system and track sprints.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">ClickUp solves all these demands with pre-designed templates and detailed instructions on how to use them. It also offers burndown and burnup, cumulative flow, and velocity charts to track your team\u2019s progress.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Monday.com proposes development teams use their product monday dev. It relies on AI for categorizing bugs and summarizing documentation. Monday dev also includes Scrum boards, roadmap tracking, and capacity planning. The pricing starts at $9\/user\/month when paid annually, but just as monday.com\u2019s pricing, it requires a minimum of 3 seats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"clickup-vs-monday-com-for-marketing-teams\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp vs. monday.com for marketing teams<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Marketing teams depend on <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/communication-in-project-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">timely communication<\/a> and coordination. This means they need many ways to communicate and a space to organize different roles clearly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Following that thought, here\u2019s what monday.com offers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Simple UI \u2014 Overview <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/project-activities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project activities<\/a> and progress at a glance.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Mirror columns \u2014 Check the status of connected tasks without switching boards.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Capacity planner \u2014 Make sure no one on the team is overloaded with tasks.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On the other hand, ClickUp is no loser in this category as it offers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Integrated Chat \u2014 Communicate with your team in the same space you manage your work.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Whiteboards \u2014 Brainstorm ideas and take visual notes.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Task dependencies \u2014 Keep your <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/project-management-workflow\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project workflow<\/a> coordinated even on the free plan.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Unlimited storage on all paid plans \u2014 Feel free to upload as many files as you need.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"clickup-vs-monday-com-for-small-businesses\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">ClickUp vs. monday.com for small businesses<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Small businesses are mostly focused on satisfying <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/project-management\/stakeholder-in-project-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project stakeholders<\/a> and being as cost efficient as possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Both apps offer <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/learn\/project-management\/what-is-project-management\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project management<\/a> features that I already talked about, which provide a great space for small businesses to organize their workflow and accomplish goals on time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Now, the smaller the business, the more important the price of the tool they\u2019re choosing is. So, let\u2019s compare the lowest possible prices of ClickUp and monday.com for teams of 10, 20, and 30 people in total:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><thead><tr><th>Team size<\/th><th>ClickUp Unlimited (annually)<\/th><th>monday.com Basic (annually)<\/th><th>ClickUp Unlimited (monthly)<\/th><th>monday.com Basic (monthly)<\/th><\/tr><\/thead><tbody><tr><td>10<\/td><td>$70\/month<\/td><td>$90\/month<\/td><td>$100\/month<\/td><td>$120\/month<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>20<\/td><td>$140\/month<\/td><td>$180\/month<\/td><td>$200\/month<\/td><td>$240\/month<\/td><\/tr><tr><td>30<\/td><td>$210\/month<\/td><td>$270\/month<\/td><td>$300\/month<\/td><td>$360\/month<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It\u2019s obvious that ClickUp is the more affordable option, and considering that it\u2019s also not as rigid with team sizes as monday.com, it could be a better option for teams that are just starting out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 id=\"looking-for-an-easy-to-use-alternative-to-clickup-and-monday-com-try-plaky-by-cake-com\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Looking for an easy-to-use alternative to ClickUp and monday.com? Try Plaky by CAKE.com<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plaky is a <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/project-management-software\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">project management tool<\/a> that helps businesses stay on track with their work and increase their productivity. If you find ClickUp too complicated and monday.com too expensive, Plaky could be a great alternative to both.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1200\" height=\"619\" src=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-project-view-in-Plaky.png\" alt=\"Table project view in Plaky\" class=\"wp-image-14974\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-project-view-in-Plaky.png 1200w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-project-view-in-Plaky-582x300.png 582w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-project-view-in-Plaky-1110x573.png 1110w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-project-view-in-Plaky-768x396.png 768w, https:\/\/plaky.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/Table-project-view-in-Plaky-18x9.png 18w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Tracking project progress in Plaky<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Plaky also offers a simple and user-friendly interface, making it a great <a href=\"https:\/\/plaky.com\/compare\/monday-alternative\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">monday.com alternative<\/a>.
