As a data engineer working across several projects with different teams, monday.com is used by our project manager and team members to track tasks between individual persons, where each one is assigned a set of tasks including ownership, deadline, and status for team collaboration purposes.
We view data in dashboarding and reporting formats.
In my recent project, my team members and I were working in other countries, so each task was tracked with a list of tasks set up to monitor status, owner, and deadline.
We tracked the percentage of task completion for visibility on progress and needed improvements.
Everything was tracked using dashboard features and workflow automation, sending notifications, reminders, and status updates without coding.
We visualized projects through various charts including Gantt and timeline views, which were useful for planning tasks and collaborating with the team.
We managed our tasks using the drag and drop board, adding columns for current project status, ownership, and deadline tracking.
We used dashboards to build custom dashboards with charts or KPI widgets to track project progress, enabling us to identify overloaded or underloaded team members and ensure team utilization.
We connected with tools and apps including Google Workspace and Zoom to share updates with customers on task progress and deadlines, supporting collaboration not just within our team but across departments including finance, IT, and sales.
