Linear is a fantastic tool for small teams that want to work efficiently. It’s refreshingly opinionated, which is exactly what you need to avoid getting stuck in the nonsense that comes with other similar tools. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It took me a bit too long to set up all my workflows, custom statuses, and everything else. It would have been much easier if there were templates I could customize to fit my needs. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I find Linear very comfortable to use compared to most apps. The design and UX are so appealing that they actually make me want to use it. Tags are particularly comfortable for organizing tasks. I also love the design of the platform, which makes it feel intuitive and user-friendly. Plus, the management system in Linear means I don't need to constantly control engineers; they're effectively managed by deadlines within the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I don't like that I have to pay per person. It becomes costy if you have 10 people in the team. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the clean, minimalist interface and the overall simplicity of the platform. Unlike many project management tools that feel cluttered with features and dashboards, Linear feels light and easy on the mind, helping me to be focused on my tasks without feeling overwhelmed.

Sometimes, the desktop app becomes stuck and requires a full restart, which can be annoying when you're neck deep in a task. Although, the platform is clean and minimal, certain functions could be more intuitive or accessible. I’d love to see the platform become more user-friendly in terms of navigation, especially. These small issues can make the experience feel a bit tedious at times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love that all the conversation can happen off Linear as well, like in Slack, so I don't have to leave Slack to update things or open new ones. From Slack, we can open different types of tickets that are then assigned and filed based on predefined Linear workflows. This greatly speeds things up on our end, as there's no context switching.

I find the UI can sometimes be hard on the eyes because everything looks visually flat. I feel like Jira had them better organized, for example. I'd suggest making it less flat, visually. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is easy to use, you can easily track cycles and create projects and issues easily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The tool is very good, but the reports aren't very user-friendly, and it's sometimes difficult to calculate metrics that help the team measure, for example, velocity, tenure, etc.

Integrations with QA tools could also be improved. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

As a Sr. Product Manager, I use Linear every single day to manage sprints, prioritize tasks, and keep the team aligned. What I love most is the clean, minimal UI and how effortless it feels to plan and track work. The speed is unmatched compared to other tools—no lag, no clutter, just a smooth experience. The keyboard-first navigation and shortcuts make me significantly more productive. I also appreciate how well it integrates with tools like Slack and GitHub, giving me a streamlined workflow across product and engineering. Linear makes it easy to stay on top of roadmaps and execution without feeling overwhelmed. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

One limitation I’ve felt is with epics management. Currently, epics feel too lightweight—I’d love the ability to create a full-fledged epic structure, where I can build modules inside an epic, and within those, create tasks and subtasks. This would allow more depth and hierarchy in planning complex projects. Right now, we make it work with tasks and projects, but for bigger initiatives, a more structured epic framework would be a huge value add. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Some advanced features have a learning curve, and limited customization options can be restrictive for certain workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I really like the UX and UI of Linear. It's very intuitive and stands out so much that many companies have been copying their UI. I also find the support great. I discovered a bug and it took me just 2 seconds to find the contact form, submit it, and the bug was fixed within hours. Additionally, the initial setup of Linear was very easy.

Nothing much Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Fast and smooth interface that makes it easy to track and manage projects and issues. I use it daily. The desktop app is easy to use, the user interface makes it easy to switch between projects, my issues and general work. It also integrates well with slack and github.
