C level has visibility into the entire timeline and status of an initiative, and real-time reporting saves work
It is meant for non-technical users. As a matter of fact, for technical users, it may seem kind of naive or non-sophisticated or something. But for non-tech people, it's a visual treat because it has functionalities and capabilities suited to their business function as well as flexibility in terms of customization to make it adaptable. monday.com is very flexible. We created workspaces for every team and they have the flexibility to create and define their own processes and data points as well as their approval processes. Viewing projects and timelines via Gantt charts in monday.com is a native functionality. The power of the dashboard is that the solution enables you to do risk, timeline, and cost-benefit analyses for your initiatives. It gives you a complete perspective on the impact of your future decisions and initiatives for the upcoming months, quarters, and years. Based on the different levels in the organization, there is visibility into what each function of the organization or each department is up to. As a manager, it gives you a live update of the tasks and any particular changes. You can track the entire project for your teams and for other teams as well. Creating a new project in monday.com takes a few seconds. If you have the templates created you can generate a project via automation. If you have a standard WBS (work breakdown structure) for every single project, you can trigger automation. When the project is approved, within a fraction of a second, the entire WBS is ready for you so that you can start putting in your updates and data. There are around 200 templates available in the solution, and that gives you a baseline to start from, whether you are doing agile management or waterfall. Once you select a template, boom, it creates a baseline structure and you can start. And even if you want to create a new project, it's still pretty simple and a matter of a few seconds.

A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation
There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The solution can be customized for individual projects and quite easy to use."
"The analytics view is very powerful with Gantt charts and multiple chart visualizations."
"I love that status updates move items from board to board."
"The automation feature saves us hours of time reviewing activities, sending reminders, and sending emails."
"Monday.com is the best platform for working with project organizations."
"You can create a group of tasks and can write down sub-tasks under each task."
"It has helped us be super creative with how we divide our boards between departments."
"I really enjoy all the additional columns you can add to your Monday pulses to cater to what information you need."
"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."
"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."
 

Cons

"Perhaps a direct interface integration with social media channels would be ideal."
"One item we feel we is missing is more board templates that would allow us to work within the agile methodology."
"We have always wanted to be able to perform a global search for a phone number."
"I archive the data, but I don't know where to find it or how. When I was testing, I thought I saw all the archived files sorted in no order and without knowing where they came from."
"It would be nice to have more custom automation and also to simplify some steps to better manage a team and a workload for projects."
"The ability to implement a timetabling functionality would be really useful for an education provider."
"There are some small usability issues which can be an inconvenience."
"We can send emails from monday.com, but when it comes to the format, we don't necessarily want to always have the monday.com logos. We want to be able to make the emails we send out from monday.com, especially if they're coming from a specific person, look like they would if they were coming from our Outlook."
"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."
"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"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's definitely affordable. I don't think it is necessarily the cheapest, but it's definitely not the most expensive. The price is well worth the value that we get out of it."
"I am using the tool's free version."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"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 wasn't involved with the licensing, but I believe it's negotiable."
"The pricing is totally fair. I don't have any issues with it."
"The project manager would be responsible for any licensing fees. As an end-user, we just follow suit."
"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."
"The price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
