Description:
Welcome back to another solo episode of our podcast, Episode 120 (Pt 2.. Listen to Part 1 for full context: Ep. 116). This time, I take you on an exciting journey of our transition from Trello to ClickUp for project management.
In this episode, I share the process, challenges, and insights we gained while transitioning our team from Trello to ClickUp. This move was a significant one for us. The decision wasn't made lightly, but the benefits it brought to our team are undeniable. Learn about how we trained our team members, tackled initial obstacles, and how we hit the ground running.
Find out why we made the switch, how we kept our team updated, and the importance of being ahead of your clients' needs. Understand how we're managing the continuing transition of our documentation from Confluence to ClickUp, and why the move is well worth the effort. I also share my thoughts on how project management tools need to scale as your business grows.
Join me on this tech journey, exploring the world of project management, and stay tuned for more exciting conversations in upcoming episodes.
