What ClickUp does well

An automation builder and a wide platform

ClickUp has an automation builder with triggers, conditions and actions. It also offers whiteboards, a chat panel, single sign-on and more than a dozen view types. A large organization can run many of its processes in one place.

A free plan for a whole team

ClickUp's free plan takes unlimited members and unlimited tasks, with 60MB of storage. A team of any size can start on it at no cost.

A toolkit you shape yourself

ClickUp offers mobile apps, data export, goals and AI assistance. Teams design their own hierarchy of spaces, folders and lists, and build their processes on top of it.

What Shaire does well

Ready on day one

Every workspace starts with six statuses, a list, a board and a page tree. Your team can start tracking work right away. Workflow rules and custom fields are there when you want them.

A flat price for the workspace

Shaire is €20 a month for the whole workspace up to ten people, and €59 up to twenty-five. On ClickUp Unlimited, ten people cost $70 a month and each new person adds $7.

Custom fields, forms and time tracking built in

A list owner adds a typed column from the grid, with no migration and no administrator. Intake forms file straight into a list. A timer keeps running while you move around the app.

ClickUp sets out to replace the other tools a team uses. It gives you spaces, folders, lists, more than a dozen view types, automations and chat, and you decide how they fit together.

Shaire is built for teams of 5 to 25 that want task tracking and documentation in one product, ready the day they open it.

Ready the day you open it

A new ClickUp workspace starts with a structure to design: which spaces, which folders, which views, and who looks after the automations. That flexibility suits a team that wants to model its own processes.

A new Shaire workspace starts with six statuses, a list, a board and a page tree. Your team can file its first task right away. Workflow rules and custom fields are there when you want them, and nothing has to be set up first.

Tasks and docs in one product

In Shaire, task tracking and documentation are both native, with one search box and one permission model.

A page can hold a live filtered task list that stays current. A checklist line in a document can become a task that links back to the line it came from. A milestone carries the writing that explains it. You do not paste links between two products and hope somebody keeps them up to date.

The price for ten people

ClickUp Unlimited is $7 per user per month billed yearly, which is $70 a month for ten people. Billed monthly, it is $100. The AI tools cost extra per person.

Per-seat pricing puts a price on each invitation: the designer who wants to follow one task, the freelancer joining for six weeks, the support person who needs the technical notes. When each one costs money, some are not invited, and the context ends up in a chat thread.

Shaire prices the workspace. The Team plan is €20 a month for up to ten people. The Growth plan is €59 a month for up to twenty-five. Every feature is on every plan, and the plans differ only in team size and storage. Your eleventh person moves the price, not your fourth.

Leaving on your own terms

An owner can close a workspace without contacting support. Day zero cancels the subscription, removes our webhooks from your git provider and hides the workspace. Day thirty destroys the data. In between, the workspace can be recovered.
