Boards and cards for people who hate project plans
Trello is the simple end of the same job, boards and cards you understand in minutes rather than the weekend ClickUp's settings ask for; free, paid from $6.
Task and project tracking for small teams
Asana does the task and project tracking part without trying to hold your documents too; free plan, paid from $10.99.
A task list that survives being ignored for a week
Todoist strips the same job down to a plain task list you understand immediately, free to start and $5 after, where ClickUp expects a day of configuring.

Airtable handles the same tracking through a spreadsheet-style database you design yourself; free to start, paid from $20.

Boards you can shape into whatever the work is
monday.com is the same shape-it-yourself work platform built on boards, with a free plan and paid tiers from $12.
Where most creators end up planning everything
