ClickUp new user setup is overwhelming without guided walkthroughs
New ClickUp users encounter too many options during setup with no contextual guidance on what features to enable or how to use them. The absence of step-by-step onboarding flows forces users to figure things out alone, slowing adoption. This is a UX gap specific to ClickUp rather than a structural market problem.
