PW
Project manager at WITS
Effective project tracking enhances decision-making but requires improved subtask hierarchy
I would like to have the ability to create more than two levels of subtasks in monday.com. It was a significant challenge as I often wanted to make a task dependent on another group, but it was difficult. It would be more efficient if it were easier to establish dependencies across different groups.
Venu Vashistha - PeerSpot reviewer
IT Manager at a computer software company with 1,001-5,000 employees
Good reporting, quick configurations, and helpful support
It's a cloud-based setup, so there's no challenge in getting everything up and running. The downtime should be minimal. I'd rate the process nine out of ten in terms of ease of deployment. There is a three-month implementation exercise that we control. We have five people who were part of the implementation and maintenance process. They are admins and web developers.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"Being able to customize the boards to our needs as a dance studio with a smaller staff team has been very helpful."
"I like the ability to customize so that we can create a system that works for us, and easily iterate it as things change."
"The structure it has, the sites, the boards, and how easily you can transfer information from one place to the other is great."
"I use the templates function to create standard templates for my project plans that I can easily duplicate and disperse organizationally."
"We can remove, add, and modify a project or task charter easily."
"Monday.com is effortless to use. You can customize it to adapt to your needs and work style. The product is beautiful and intuitive, which makes the work enjoyable."
"The solution is great for notification on changes and updates and Excel exporting and we can easily build and customize new boards."
"The free version provides all the utilities that I need."
"The reporting part is very good."
 

Cons

"monday.com is missing a few features but not many. For example, let's say you're working on a global project for a marketing campaign, and you have the video team working on it. Maybe the video team only wants a board that shows the packages that are related to them, but you cannot do that on monday.com. You can't have the same task in multiple projects."
"It would be nice to have a general section at the top of each group."
"The marketing notification emails from Monday.com are really poor and of little value to the user."
"I'd like better integration with other services."
"The feature which needs more improvement or development is the dashboard."
"I do find the emails too frequent and notifications or inbox for things that aren't tagged for me inconvenient and occasionally confusing."
"The workload widget should work with the time-tracking column for more accuracy in managing team resources."
"I wish the Time Tracking features were a little more robust."
"Some of the reports could be automated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The product is not expensive."
"It was fairly reasonable. For everything we were using it for, it was fairly reasonable."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"I wasn't involved with the licensing, but I believe it's negotiable."
"monday.com's pricing is fair compared to its competitors, although it is a bit more expensive than most of them. It's more expensive than Jira, Zoho, ClickUp, and Trello. But it is fairly priced when you compare the kinds of features and the capabilities that you get and the ROI."
"The licensing cost is not that high for monday.com. However, if you need an implementer, the cost is high because there aren't so many monday.com professionals."
"I think monday.com's paywalls are a little too high. Some basic features are locked behind the premium subscription. Some applications they offer within their subscription model are locked in an expensive package. These applications provide functionality that would benefit small teams, but it's too much money for a startup or a small business."
"The project manager would be responsible for any licensing fees. As an end-user, we just follow suit."
