User-friendly interface simplifies project management but it requires stable connectivity
We primarily use monday.com for project management within our department, which includes sales, operations, and engineering monday.com makes it very easy to input any information. The style and format are user-friendly, making it practical for our needs despite some network issues. The need for…

Has resources management and timesheets but could be more flexible
Compared to Broadcom Clarity, there was some flexibility with blueprints, etc. You can create a blueprint for different business groups or different customers. Planview AdaptiveWork doesn't have something like that. If they can build up something like a view price. It's still a traditional way where you have to create different instances for different customers. The PPM solution uses queries if I'm rolling out for different divisions. In that case, I have to create different instances for each region because each division may have a different look and feel. But if I have a blueprint, then it's very convenient. I can create multiple interfaces for different processes. Broadcom Clarity has some access control on those viewpoints.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The free version provides all the utilities that I need."
"The coolest thing is the way the files or documents can be uploaded to subitems."
"The time savings alone is worth every penny and man-hour it took settings up the business profile."
"Integrations with Slack and integrations as a whole are wonderful."
"The automation process is one of the best."
"Subitems really help me stay organized when a project has more than one piece."
"I love being able to "check off" a task by changing its status to "done." It also disappears off the list when you complete it."
"The boards and the sub-boards are great."
"I like the project management solution. It's really nice."
"Clarizen's strength is reporting. Aside from reporting, I also like the ability to create customized workflow and custom actions. The workflow rules are handy. For example, you can create custom fields and dependent picklists."
"Clarizen Slide Publisher has helped increase transparency and communication with project stakeholders for us."
"The feature that has improved our project planning the most is the ability to create custom workflows, which allows us to automate manual tasks that project managers need to perform. The collaboration feature enhances our team's productivity by allowing individuals to see the impact of their decisions on projects owned and managed by other teams."
 

Cons

"We have difficulties playing with automation."
"A little more customization on the UI would be good."
"Automation is often glitchy for us. Maybe we have too many automations set up?"
"Subitems could be reworked a little so that they’re more helpful."
"Email notifications from Monday.com can sometimes not lead to the relevant update I am being notified about, which can be frustrating."
"The solution could use a more streamlined Google Calendar integration."
"The web page can be a bit buggy at times, especially after I switch to a different tab and then come back to the Monday site after leaving it idle for a few minutes."
"I wish there were better notifications and dashboard views with analytics around the status of projects, etc."
"It could be more user-friendly. I think it is too overwhelming, initially, in terms of possibilities and so on."
"If I start customizing too many things, Clarizen tends to get really slow in our environment and especially if I'm tunneled in an environment, like if I'm connected to my VPN."
"One specific area for improvement could be implementing a development environment to test workflows with live production data."
"I felt like the slide publisher isn't that user-friendly. I think it wasn't that easy to use or to figure out because of formatting constraints, or maybe we need to get better at understanding some of its limitations."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Fees are paid monthly per user."
"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."
"The project manager would be responsible for any licensing fees. As an end-user, we just follow suit."
"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 rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"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."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"The product is not expensive."
