GoProject vs ClickUp
ClickUp is a broad cloud work management platform with a large range of features and integrations. GoProject takes a different approach: fewer modules, but deeper process management in a system that runs in your infrastructure and gives organisations the administration, access and audit capabilities they need.

Why teams move from ClickUp
The problems we hear most often, and how GoProject addresses them.
“Our security requirements call for keeping the data in our own infrastructure.”
GoProject runs in your data centre, private cloud or isolated network. The system needs no telemetry and no connection to the LTECH infrastructure.
“Test cases and test runs live in spreadsheets beside the tool.”
Test management is built in: test cases with steps and expected results, test plans, and cycles for regression, smoke and acceptance tests, run step by step. A failed test becomes a bug on the spot, and every cycle is tied to its release.
“There are many features, but the team needs only a few of them.”
For each project GoProject lets you switch on only the modules it needs. Switched-off modules are available neither in the interface nor in the API, so the team sees only what its work needs.
“Automation has a monthly run limit.”
GoProject automation has no monthly run limit. Rules can be started by events, a schedule, SLA thresholds, Git events and incoming webhooks. Hourly limits guard against loops and runaway runs.
“Filters are not enough to find what happened to the work earlier.”
The GoProject search builder supports AND, OR, brackets and the history of changes: for example, work items whose status changed to Blocked in the last sprint. Saved filters can be shared with the whole team.

Where ClickUp is ahead today
We say this openly too. In these areas ClickUp offers more today, and GoProject still has work to do.
- iOS and Android apps and a free plan to start with.
- ClickUp Brain AI capabilities.
- A wide range of integrations and features.
- Timers, timesheet approval and hour budgets; GoProject offers time tracking without budget management.
- SAML support in the top plan; GoProject does not support SAML at present.
Moving from ClickUp
Import the data straight from your ClickUp workspace. Connect ClickUp with a personal access token and choose for each space whether a space, a folder or a list becomes a GoProject project. Tasks are moved together with their custom fields, comments, work logs, watchers and files. Statuses are moved with their transitions open, and you can configure the workflows and automation you need in GoProject after the import.
