# Smartsheet vs ClickUp

> Smartsheet and ClickUp overlap across project management, collaboration and workflow automation, but they have built different routes to market. Smartsheet operates a separate AWS GovCloud-based offering with FedRAMP Moderate certification and DISA Impact Level Four authorization, plus government procurement channels. ClickUp lists a substantial commercial compliance portfolio and markets to organizations of many sizes, including public-sector teams, but its public materials and the FedRAMP Marketplace do not show an equivalent federal authorization. The result is a buyer split created less by feature checklists than by the cost and strategic value of admission to regulated markets.

## Achievements

- Smartsheet Gov is listed in the FedRAMP Marketplace at the Moderate baseline.
- Smartsheet Gov obtained DISA provisional authorization at Impact Level Four.
- Smartsheet established government-focused procurement routes including GSA Advantage, the FedRAMP Marketplace and partners such as Carahsoft.
- ClickUp reports SOC One Type Two, SOC Two Type Two, SOC Three and multiple ISO certifications.
- ClickUp operates a startup program offering qualifying companies product credits and onboarding resources.

## Latest updates

- **2025-01** — Smartsheet was acquired by funds managed by Blackstone and Vista Equity Partners.
- **2026-08** — The FedRAMP Marketplace lists Smartsheet Gov as certified at the Moderate level; ClickUp's public trust materials list SOC, ISO, privacy and PCI frameworks but not FedRAMP.
