Feature Request: Prioritizing Familiar UI and Manual Workflow Creation for Users Migrating from Monday.com, ClickUp, Trello, etc.

As a potential user looking to switch to Bika.ai from tools like Monday.com, ClickUp, and Trello (platforms Bika.ai themselves compare favorably to), I’ve noticed a potential gap in the onboarding experience. While Bika.ai’s AI and automation features are exciting, the current interface and lack of an intuitive way to build manual workflows could be a barrier for users accustomed to the structures and flexibility of these established platforms.

Many of us are looking to replicate our existing project management systems and data structures in Bika.ai before fully embracing the AI capabilities. The current template-focused approach doesn’t offer the immediate familiarity and control that users migrating from these competitors expect.

To better attract and retain users from Monday.com, ClickUp, Trello, and similar tools, I propose that Bika.ai prioritize:

  • Offering familiar UI options or customizable views that resemble the layouts of these platforms.
  • Implementing a robust manual workflow builder that allows users to define their own project stages, task statuses, and custom fields.
  • Potentially providing guided onboarding specifically for users coming from these competitor platforms.

By providing a more familiar starting point, Bika.ai can significantly ease the transition for new users and allow them to gradually integrate the powerful AI features once they have a comfortable and controllable foundation. What are your thoughts on this? Do others feel the same way about the initial user experience when considering a switch to Bika.ai from these types of platforms?

Thanks for the thoughtful feedback, @bourbonblackstudios — this is a very relevant point, especially for users coming from tools like Monday or ClickUp.

We’ve seen similar comments from others, so it’s great to see you sharing it in the community. I’ve flagged it on our side as well so the product team can take a closer look.

Really appreciate you being part of the discussion! :+1:
