When & why to run GoodDay with ClickUp
A free plan for the whole team vs. a far bigger track record.
GoodDay gives 15 users unlimited projects and tasks at no cost and $4 a seat after that, which undercuts ClickUp on both counts. ClickUp customizes far deeper and carries 9,760 reviews against GoodDay's 149. Pick GoodDay to run a small team properly on nothing; pick ClickUp when you need the configuration depth and the reassurance of scale.
Automation Blueprints, make them work together
The real payoff is the stack. These are concrete GoodDay ↔ ClickUp workflows worth building.
New GoodDay task to ClickUp delivery space
Task Created
Project = Client Intake
Create Task
Teams trialling GoodDay for intake while delivery still runs in ClickUp avoid rekeying work during the migration.
ClickUp completion back to the GoodDay dashboard
Task Status Changed
Status = Complete
Update Task Status
Keeps a GoodDay reporting view accurate while the work itself is still happening in ClickUp.
Setup steps
The Zapier/Make path, start to finish.
- 1
Create a Zapier or Make account and connect both GoodDay and ClickUp (authorize each via OAuth).
- 2
Create a new Zap/Scenario with the trigger, GoodDay: Task Created.
- 3
Add a filter for the condition (Project = Client Intake) so the workflow only fires when it should.
- 4
Add the action in ClickUp (Create Task) and map the fields from the trigger data.
- 5
Test with a live record, verify the result, then turn the automation on and repeat for the other workflows.
Edge cases & rate limits
What breaks in production: plan for these before you scale.
- Field mapping: GoodDay and ClickUp fields rarely map 1:1, normalize dates, currencies, and dropdown/picklist values explicitly.
- Pick a source of truth per field to avoid two-way syncs overwriting each other in a loop.
- GoodDay: Advertised per-user rates assume annual billing. Monthly costs about 40% more: Professional is $6 rather than $4 and Business $10 rather than $7.
- ClickUp: Automation runs are capped per tier, heavy workflows hit monthly limits.
- Zapier/Make task usage is metered: high-volume workflows can burn through your monthly task/operations quota, so batch where possible.
- Watch API rate limits on bulk backfills, throttle or batch to stay under each tool's per-second/per-minute caps.
