Let’s be real, switching your organisation’s project management platform can be scary. There are tons of questions to think about:
How do we move our data to the new platform?
Will everyone need a lot of training to use it?
What if it doesn’t do everything we need?
Do I have time to make this change?
But finding the right platform for your team can make a big difference.
Toyin Olasenhinde knows this well. As a Product Manager, he understands that having the right tools is key. That’s why he led the switch from Trello to ClickUp at WoodCore, a cloud banking start-up.
We sat down with him (virtually) to learn more about his experience:
Tell us about WoodCore!
WoodCore is a Cloud Banking Application that’s currently in its Private Beta phase. It’s mainly used by FinTechs, Micro Finance Banks, and other financial service providers.
Basically, we offer a flexible, scalable, affordable, and easy-to-access Cloud Banking Application for these clients.
When you joined WoodCore, were they already using ClickUp?
No, they were using Trello. It was pretty chaotic, project management-wise.
After I joined, I suggested ClickUp to my boss. They agreed, so I set up the Workspace.
What’s your favorite ClickUp feature?
It’s hard to pick just one!
I really like Assigning comments. It lets me turn comments into action items, which is great for small tasks. And adding Custom Fields to List view is super helpful for organising tasks based on different criteria.
What tools do you integrate with ClickUp?
I’ve integrated Microsoft Teams and I’m planning to integrate Slack soon. This makes communication and task management much easier.
How do you use ClickUp to manage projects?
ClickUp is great for tracking activities. We use comments to update tasks, so all the information is in one place. And we track tasks using statuses, log meeting notes in comments, and more.
How has ClickUp improved your work?
It’s made everything more transparent. Everyone knows what’s happening, which means better communication, less duplicate work, and easier tracking overall.
How many hours a week do you save with ClickUp?
I’d say about 18 hours a week. ClickUp simplifies customer communication and project tracking, so I spend less time on admin tasks.
What do you do with the time you save?
I try to rest and relax. But sometimes, I use it to work on other projects.
Any advice for streamlining productivity?
Definitely give ClickUp a try! It’s versatile and can save you a lot of time.
