SaaS Tool Combos
These app combos include standalone software apps that work seamlessly together. They're solid choices to make up your productivity toolkit, whether you're integrating different tools or working within a business suite like Microsoft 365 or Google Workspace.
#1 - The Ultimate Combo 🚀
This combo combines planning, work management, communication, documentation, and website management into one cohesive and powerful tech stack. We handpicked this combo for professionals who want the most robust features to drive each area of their business.
Integrate Slack with ClickUp to turn any message into a task or comment, and set up notification flows. Share tasks with your teammates when having discussions in your channels.
#2 - The Minimalist Combo 🌵
The ideal combo for professionals and teams who want to cut costs and keep more of their work in one place. This includes chat and communication in the context of your work, so we've removed a chat platform like Slack from this list for the sake of "minimalism".
However, if you still need a tool to host your meetings or webinars, Zoom is an ideal addition to the combo, unless you're already working with a business suite like Google Workspace or Microsoft 365. You could use Google Meet and Chat or Microsoft Teams in place of Zoom to cut costs further.
Use Microsoft 365 for Business for your email, file storage, docs, slides, text/video chat, intranet, and more.
Use ClickUp to manage your projects, tasks, workflows, docs, and whiteboards.
For crafting high-quality docs, slide decks, and social media content.
#3 - The Teamwork Starter Combo 🏆
An ideal combo for teams who want to hit the ground running with minimal setup time, and connect all their tools together for a seamless workflow.
Asana is pre-built with the tabs and flows every project needs, like Overview, List, Board, and Progress tabs, to make starting new projects and managing existing ones a breeze.
Integrate Slack with any of the tools in this combo to reference tasks from Asana, docs from Notion, and designs from Canva with your teammates when having discussions in your channels.
Use Canva to craft high-quality docs, slide decks, and social media content for any online channel you use to reach customers. Embed your Canva designs directly into your Asana projects to streamline your design workflow.
Use Notion for writing docs, notes, and bringing content together to create team wikis. We don't recommend using projects in Notion, since you'll get more out of your projects using Asana. But you can preview your Asana tasks in Notion pages. You can also connect Notion to Slack for doc sharing and notifications, and Canva to share your designs with teammates or clients with ease.
#4 - The Database Combo 🏆
An ideal solution for individuals and teams who want to create a database of interconnected projects, workflows, and sets of information. Also useful for building custom interfaces powered by data across your database.
Airtable is like spreadsheet software on steroids, with a twist: you can build custom apps and interfaces within Airtable to power your own workflows.
Integrate Slack with any tool in this combo to reference any item in Airtable, Notion, or Canva and automate notifications of updates to your team in Slack.
Craft high-quality docs, slide decks, and social media content for any online channel you use to reach customers. Embed your designs directly into your Airtable bases, Notion docs, and Slack channels to streamline your workflow.
Use Notion for writing docs, notes, and bringing content together to create team wikis. We don't recommend using projects in Notion for this combo, since you'll get more out of your projects using Airtable. But you can send messages to Airtable, connect to Slack for doc sharing and notifications, or share your Canva designs in Notion docs.
