Centralized workflows have boosted cross-team collaboration and made complex projects manageable
monday.com can continue to improve their AI capabilities. When comparing monday.com to several alternatives when I was evaluating a project and project management, product road mapping, and workflow management platform for us, I looked at competitors such as Asana, ClickUp, SmartSheet, Airtable, and Notion. In my opinion, competitors such as Airtable and SmartSheet, especially followed by Asana and ClickUp, have worked on their AI and generative AI roadmap to combine database functionality with a very user-friendly interface for knowledge management and project tracking, essentially combining both worlds. Their AI is more sophisticated than what monday.com has released thus far. They provide a cleaner task-focused workflow management platform and I think that monday.com can still improve on this core piece of their technology. I think monday.com could also seek to be more process-oriented and intuitive. Other alternatives such as Asana and SmartSheet offer that approach. There is a steeper learning curve to learn monday.com in my opinion compared to Airtable, Asana, and others because I have also used those tools and platforms at other organizations. There is a bit of a learning curve with new users on monday.com because it is not as streamlined as I have experienced with competitors such as SmartSheet or Airtable. The capability sets are great, however, you may need to be hand-held via a monday.com rep when you get started within your organization or view the library of tutorials that monday.com has available. You can also view them on YouTube and that will help you get started on monday.com.

Unified customer service has provided real-time insights and supports flexible, intuitive workflows
We have a customer service application for customer service in a smaller group, and for most purposes, we use the direct platform. It is a unified channel that depends upon the business. We do not use all channels, but we leverage them wherever they are applicable. The interface is intuitive and depends upon the business. Whenever there is a request for information, we come up with a design and then provide the opportunity to see if it is usable or if they would prefer it in another fashion. Out of the box, it is acceptable. It has all the features required for supporting the customer service side. Although we are not using the voice feature, it gives people the flexibility to interact and get real information. Real-time information is available. It includes both a dashboard and the customer service front desk UI.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"We have been able to keep our projects and acquisitions more organized by using the automation features to move line items over new sections based on the status."
"In my opinion, the best features monday.com offers are the AI, then automation and the workflow, which helps business processes to be seamless."
"All in all, we primarily used this software for Project management because it allowed me to monitor the progress of my team, allowed us to manage hybrid programs and operations (and transition seamlessly), and communicate 24/7."
"I generally appreciate a lot about monday.com because I feel it has very few limitations for flexible and agile teams, and I think it is a fantastic tool to support this kind of working environment and team."
"We are a lot more organized, and have transparency throughout key areas of our business thanks to this solution."
"Our company switched to Monday four years ago and it changed our everyday lives."
"My Work helps us really, truly see what is on our plate for a given day in a task list form - we did not have this capability before."
"Monday.com has provided a centralized and easy-to-use area for my team to store all of our information and collaborate together."
"The product is scalable. It works efficiently for changing existing features."
"The technical support provided for all the solutions from Pega is of the same quality since they have their own internal teams and the same mechanisms, which are good for dealing with issues of different users."
"Pega Customer Service is scalable."
"The most valuable feature of the solution is case management and different configurations."
"It has all the features required for supporting the customer service side, and although we are not using the voice feature, it gives people the flexibility to interact and get real information with real-time information available."
 

Cons

"I'd like to see some kind of way to display our data to realtor partners without giving them access to our entire board."
"We would like to have more open boards at one time and more CRM functionalities."
"There are so many bells and whistles that I don't feel like I'm using Monday to its full potential."
"We need more cross-API integration with creative apps in the Adobe Suite and other communication platforms."
"It would be helpful if I could integrate Google Docs with Monday somehow."
"monday.com could benefit from deeper integration with other products that are prevalent within the industry, such as Google Sheets, HubSpot, social media platforms, and various ad services."
"We have difficulties playing with automation."
"I do wish that admins could edit everything, no matter who created a post/board/subitems, etc."
"The only concern I have seen about the product is its prices."
"Pega JVM function needs to be improved."
"The licensing cost could also be improved."
"Improvements are always required, but at this moment, the UI is the key area that is not flexible enough for us."
"The product's pricing needs improvement."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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."
"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 pricing of monday.com is worth it."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"The pricing is totally fair. I don't have any issues with it."
"Though I am unsure about the product's pricing plan, there is a need to make monthly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution, and it operates on a per-user plan."
"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."
"The tool's pricing is flexible, and I rate it four to five out of ten."
"The solution provides licenses to users either based on the number of users or the number of cases that an end user creates."
