Current behavior

The current list limits per Space are:

Business: 400 lists

Business Plus: 1,000 lists

Enterprise: 1,000 lists

The problem

These limits make ClickUp unworkable for any business that manages many clients, each with multiple objects or locations, property managers, facility managers, trades companies, and building service providers.

The natural ClickUp hierarchy for these businesses is:

Space → all clients (one space per business area)

Folder → each client

List → each building or object

Task → each job or service at that building

A mid-sized trades or facility management company might have 200–500 clients, each with 5–50 buildings. That is easily 2,000–25,000 lists per space, far beyond the Business Plus limit of 1,000.

The forced workarounds all create new problems

Splitting clients across multiple spaces clutters the sidebar and breaks cross-client reporting. Making each client its own Space results in 300–500+ spaces, which is unusable. Flattening the hierarchy loses navigability. None of these are real solutions.

The ask

Business: 400 → 5,000 lists per Space

Business Plus: 1,000 → 10,000 lists per Space

Enterprise: 1,000 → Unlimited

Property management, facility management, and building trades are a large ClickUp user segment.

Have a lovely day
