Similar Problems
surfaced semanticallyClickUp space templates are limited with no preview before applying
ClickUp users cannot preview space templates before applying them and find the available template library insufficient for diverse team workflows. This blind selection process leads to wasted setup effort when templates do not match expectations. Teams need more template variety and a preview mechanism to reduce trial-and-error setup time.

Users find ClickUp's pricing expensive for personal use or small teams and wish for a lower tier, or the ability to opt out of unused features to reduce cost. Reflects a recurring tension between feature breadth and affordability for smaller customers. A structural pricing-model complaint common among project management SaaS tools.
ClickUp Project Templates Are Hard to Discover and Use
ClickUp users cannot quickly find or apply project templates, slowing team setup and onboarding. Templates exist but are buried in the UI, making the feature effectively invisible to many users. The discoverability gap reduces the tool's value for new projects.
ClickUp workspace navigation is confusing and view preferences do not persist
Users find it difficult to navigate ClickUp settings and workspace creation flows. Compounding this, view type preferences revert to defaults instead of remembering user choices. These two issues together increase daily friction for regular users.
