ClickUp
Docs, tasks and dashboards in one place
ClickUp tries to be the only work tool a team opens, and mostly manages it: tasks, documents, whiteboards, goals and dashboards all live together and cross-reference. The cost of that reach is a settings screen that takes a weekend to understand. Automations are metered per plan, which is what pushes a growing team off the free tier.
Our note
AI is a separate $9 per user a month, sitting on top of a $7 seat. That more than doubles the bill, and it is easy to miss when the comparison with Notion gets settled on the headline price.
Miro
The whiteboard remote teams actually open
Miro is an infinite canvas that a group can work on at the same time, and it became the default for planning work that does not fit in a document. For creators it earns its place on a content calendar laid out as a board, a video storyboard nobody has to rebuild in another tool, or a workshop run with a client who will never install software. The free plan holds three editable boards, which is enough to find out whether the format suits you. Paid plans are per member, so a collaborator costs the same as a founder.
