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.

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

"In general, this solution is very user-friendly."
"Since I'm using it for a variety of purposes, not just project management, I can customize boards and workspaces based on the needs of that particular workflow."
"With the work boards easy to convert to Gantt charts, valuable time is saved when preparing for project meetings."
"The feature I have found most valuable is the automation aspect."
"We use also integration with Jira, to see the updates so the CSM team can see the update from Jira."
"Being able to see your own personal specific projects makes it that much more accessible a program and is great for work productivity."
"The automation makes moving items around the boards easier and saves us time."
"It allows us to get everyone on the same page at their local terminal without having to sync everyone on ten different software solutions."
"The reporting part is very good."
 

Cons

"Even when the person leaves the team, he/she can still access all the files he/she created."
"I believe the reporting functionality could be improved on monday.com. While some reports are accessible, this area has room for enhancement. For example, including a Gantt chart in project planning would be valuable. This addition could make monday.com more competitive with tools like Microsoft Project. Overall, I think there's potential for improvement in the graphical interfaces and reports provided by monday.com."
"The only thing that I would change, and I'm not sure if this is part of the settings that need to be fixed by the user itself, not by the admin, is that sometimes it would be convenient to make your own categories, and it makes it difficult to constantly go and talk to my boss to get them."
"I have to use a ton of filters to get the exact data I want on an overview board."
"We have difficulties playing with automation."
"Timetracking should be a little more powerful."
"If Monday.com could increase the refresh rate of the site, that would make things a little better."
"I'm not such a fan of the infinite scroll to the right."
"Some of the reports could be automated."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"monday.com is pretty affordable. It's cheaper than Asana. There are four tiers, including a free version. The free version is fine if you don't have any complex projects. One of the most advanced plans is around $16 per month per user."
"It was fairly reasonable. For everything we were using it for, it was fairly reasonable."
"The pricing of monday.com is worth it."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"It's quite expensive when it goes to the enterprise license. Other tools like Jira cost 5 a month, and then their enterprise license is 38 a month, which is quite expensive for what we can do. It's £500 for a tool on a large enterprise. I'd have hoped that enterprise costs go down, not up. The pro license is £14, and then everything else is much more expensive, which is another barrier for us to adopt because other comparable tools are much more affordable when you have such a high multiplier as well."
"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 product is not expensive."
