Why teams switch from ClickUp Clips
Clips lives inside ClickUp
ClickUp Clips is now included on every plan, but recording, sharing, and your video library all sit inside the ClickUp app. If ClickUp is not where your team lives, Clips is a feature you have to go visit. vyds is a dedicated tool that works wherever your team already is.
You are not on ClickUp
If your team runs on Linear, Jira, Asana, Notion, Monday, or anything other than ClickUp, you would need to adopt ClickUp just to make Clips your team recorder. vyds works regardless of what PM tool your team uses, and the viewer never needs an account.
A full recorder, not basic capture
vyds Plus is $5/mo annual with editing, effects, and viewer analytics built in. Clips covers basic capture; AI transcripts and summaries need the ClickUp Brain add-on at $9/user/mo.
Your storage, your data
ClickUp Clips ties your video library to ClickUp. If you ever migrate PM platforms, your recordings move with you only as exported files. vyds Free saves to your own Google Drive - portable across tools and time.
