Premium Content

For a company created in 2017, ClickUp has enjoyed remarkable success in the project management space — one of the most competitive software markets in the world.

Let’s look at the numbers.

You might begin to wonder, how did ClickUp manage to achieve all of this while competing with project management household names like Asana, monday.com, and Trello?

This analysis aims to share some of the key factors and strategies that allow ClickUp to continue to thrive in the project management red ocean. 

By the end of this analysis, you’ll have learned how ClickUp:

  • Achieves natural product fit
  • Executes a product-lead content strategy 
  • Drives brand awareness through social media and videos
  • Uses feedback to create a better product
  • Handles shipping new features and bug fixes
