5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

It is fast, simple and has tons of integrations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Linear?

Nothing much that I dislike, I just miss having the ability to add multiple people to a task, for example when someone else has to takeover a task for a short period I shouldn't need to change the main assigne. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Focused, Intentional Workflow with Smooth Shortcuts and Clear Issue Tracking"
5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

I like how Linear keeps everything focused and intentional. The keyboard shortcuts, smooth workflow, and clear issue tracking make it easy to stay productive without feeling overwhelmed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Linear?

One downside is that Linear can feel too minimal for some teams—there aren’t many built-in customization or reporting options. If you rely heavily on detailed analytics or complex workflows, it may feel a bit limiting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Transformed Our Workflow with Clean UI and Seamless GitHub Integration"
5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

It completely transformed our development workflow. The UI is clean and simple, and the github integration makes tracking tickets a breeze. Pricing-wise it also is better than other competitors.

The support is superb and even offers a dedicated slack channel. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Linear?

Sometimes the features can be a bit rigid, since they have their own philosophy or why things exist. I don't mind it, as we've always been able to adopt them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Save time through efficient team collaboration and task management."
4.5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

Linear ensures that nothing is missed in work, and it's especially great for knowing what specific members are working on when collaborating with global team members. Also, by integrating with Slack, you can set Slack messages directly as Linear tasks, so nothing is missed, and when various ideas come up, you don't have to record them manually, saving time. The initial setup was very easy, and I liked that the UI was easy to understand. I also like the shortcut feature. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Linear?

There isn't any yet! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Simplifies Project Management with Robust Free Plan"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Linear?

I worked at an AI tech startup that used Linear for all of its project management, and it was great for organizing our work. I liked that we could make tickets for anything, and the section for comments helped a lot, especially with its integration with GitHub. I could push and make comments directly to show my teammates using the magic word commands, and they could leave comments on my git that I could see in our Linear. I liked how simple it was; there was no onboarding needed, it was very intuitive and easy to get started. The free plan was robust; we ran our entire startup off of it, and there was never a need to pay for the full version. I used the 'make a ticket' feature the most, along with the comments section to keep up with everything. The comments were how I'd tell my co-worker to check my work or that a section was ready for code review. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Linear?

The magic words got confusing, and I didn't know the exact purpose for some of them. The structure for the magic words was just confusing and unexplained, so we just used them however we wanted. It would be easier if there was an explanation of what each magic word did, and if the magic words could pop up in Git. I had to type them in myself, unlike in Git where you might get a label pop-up.
