Make it faster
in progress
Andrei Pascu
ClickUp is slow. When you get good at it, the speed of the app limits your workflow and that's very frustrating.
Here's an example:
When I estimante times for tasks, I click on the estimate button and write something like "5m". After like half a second, I can press "enter" and that sets the estimate. The problem is that little, pesky half a second delay that I have to wait for every single task. The problem is that if I don't, the time estimate will be set to 5 hours even if I wrote "5m".
There are many little things like that (like the cmd+k command) that are annoyingly slow. Sometimes it is faster to navigate manually to a specific task than having to wait for the results to pop up.
They aren't a big issue, they just get frustrating when you really get into the workflow and you're going super fast, but clickup can't keep up.

Hey all, thank you for sharing this feedback with us, and apologies that you’re experiencing slow speeds in ClickUp.
Slow speeds can have many different root causes. Specifics about your environment, account, and impacted features allow us to test, reproduce, and resolve. Please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Technical Support team, especially if you’re stuck or experiencing sudden issues. https://help.clickup.com/hc/en-us/requests/new
Additionally, we are underway with rolling our ClickUp 3.0 in two separate phases: the product experience and infrastructure improvements. The infrastructure improvements will directly target performance & reliability.
We've migrated a small set of our user base to the new infrastructure and are on track to move all workspaces by the end of October. Migration will happen automatically without any action required by your team.
I am going to update the status of this post to “In Progress” while we work on delivering the new infrastructure to all users. We’re listening, we hear your frustration, and we’re going to get this fixed.

I haven't had this issue until the latest update. Switching between spaces takes a while and slows down the workflow. I can spend a few hours just adding tasks between spaces and going to from a space to ensure tasks don't overlap when I'm in list view. The only way I can accurately do this is through the Everything space, which due to the many projects becomes too overwhelming to sort and add tasks accordingly and assigning them under the correct space.

I started using ClickUp (free trial) a week or so ago but it is so slow it is unusable.
I haven't yet upgraded as I'm trying to determine if it's worth migrating my entire project management to ClickUp but it looks like I won't be able to.
Simple actions like moving between folders/lists is cumbersome and makes organizing the workspace virtually impossible.
It's a shame as the tool has everything I want/need but until resolved I will continue using Trello. The desktop app is not much better though I require the browser version anyway.
Here is another speed related thread from 2019 which is marked resolved however new comments are added regularly since the initial post. Even recent comments from within the last month. https://clickup.canny.io/feature-requests/p/web-app-performance-and-speed-issues.
Is there an answer for this coming anytime soon?
