I really like Clubhouse, but I'm somewhat skeptical about the free version. (even though it says 'free forever')

In the past two years multiple companies that initially had an affordable plan ( 10 dollars a month or less) for small companies had the same strategy: change the affordable plan to a free plan. And then within a year kill 90% of the features on the free plan and have you upgrade to a full plan much more expensive than the plan you were on before everything became free.

The product is great though, main feature for me is the ability to plan epics at a milestone level.

I don't know why but many project management tools these days do not have a milestone section. Do teams these days not use milestones as a time box for significant feature delivery ?
Yes, before we were using clubhouse someone was doing high-level planning in an Excel/Google docs. A few months later and even marketing is starting to use clubhouse and the milestone planning.

I think it really helps to not have 30 different unrelated stories to work on but plan them at an epic level so at least the things you are working on are related.

Even for things that are not really an epic I now tend to group related features together in an epic to make it easier to keep track and plan. (e.g. grouping 10 minor UX improvements together in one Q3 UX fixes epic)
