Project collaboration has improved and automation saves time and reduces errors
The best features monday.com offers are reporting, customization, and company contacts, tracking communication, and project plans. All of the features are really important, especially the project planning, which gives us the ability to manipulate project plans, and it's very helpful. Also, tracking our communication is valuable. I love that I can see both my communications and the communications of my coworkers with the company contacts. When it comes to company contacts, I appreciate the ability to have the company as well as various tags, documents, and contact types. It has really boosted our team collaboration, where different departments are able to collaborate within one project, and we are able to complete many projects on time and deliver them to our clients. Our clients have become very happy over time since we started using monday.com. We've been able to complete many projects on time and meet our deadlines. This has really made our clients happy, and they have trusted us a lot. Through automation of tasks which were previously time-consuming and tedious, we've been able to save a lot of time and cost. We've also improved our team collaboration. We can collaborate securely remotely, thereby improving our productivity. We've been able to save thousands of dollars since we started using automation. We're able to save approximately 80% of our time through automation. We've also been able to reduce human risk, where there is no human contact with the data, thereby greatly reducing human error.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"Using the deadline feature to manage priorities has been the most valuable."
"Creating super-smart to-do lists, intern management, and sales leads lists has been huge."
"The features that I have found most valuable include the dashboards, forms, and item and task tracking."
"The templates were always the best part as not starting from scratch made the process so much easier."
"The ability to attach files to boards and truly make it collaborative is the most important aspect of the solution."
"We can have different boards for different needs."
"Automation is great."
"Integrations such as the one for Slack have helped us receive updates on tasks immediately as they occur by other team members."
"The product's most valuable feature is the ease of obtaining information to make decisions."
 

Cons

"It does have some native report widgets, but there are limitations on those. They're still building that capability out in my opinion. The reporting in monday.com is probably the weakest link, but there are third-party apps that you can add in that do some great reporting for you. You can also tie monday.com into a data warehouse and use something like Tableau, Power BI, or any reporting tool that can report out of a data warehouse to get the more in-depth reports that you need. Monday.com will get there, but it doesn't seem to be one of their top priorities."
"We'd like to see cross-board automation."
"I would really like to see the reporting functionality updated."
"My Work cannot be connected to specific line items in boards or subtasks, and therefore it is currently causing a gap in communication with our team."
"Monday.com can be improved by becoming even more simplistic in settings/layout."
"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'd really like to have the ability to have different types of boards within a board."
"As a new hire, it was a bit complex for me to learn and understand how to use Monday."
"The platform's user interfaces could be simplified."
 

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."
"I am using the tool's free version."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"The product is not expensive."
"The price is reasonable for the number of users we have."
"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."
"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 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 product's initial price is quite low, around $100 for a fixed deployment."
