monday.com Reviews

I run a marketing team that utilizes Monday.com for all facets of marketing and creative, including: graphic design, web design and development, copywriting, photography and videography, online syndication, radio scripts, and much more. 

We have a team of 13 people with a variety of skills and backgrounds. We utilize Monday to log all of our projects and to keep on task. 

I particularly use it to see our team's workload and ensure that I assign tasks and deliver all necessary information to the team members when we initiate projects. 

Monday.com is our central hub for project management and keeps our team on track to deliver assets to our clients on time and facilitates collaboration between our creative department and stakeholders alike. We use Monday to gauge how many projects each team member can handle at once for scale, to determine how often deadlines are hit or missed, and to centralize our entire task load into one place allowing visibility to all team members and management. We utilize the functions in Monday.com to see how many tasks we receive from each of our clients, what types of tasks are coming in, and keep track of our team members' productivity. Without Monday.com we would be lost.

The customization of dashboards and the ability to see all tasks from a bird's eye view, along with the ability to categorize types of tasks and which clients have requested them to allow us to use the tool to know how much workload we can handle, and at what point we need to add more resources to our team. 

We use it to log projects and tasks. It provides us with data to know how and when to scale. We see which team members are heavy on tasks and if we need to add more resources in the future with certain backgrounds - graphic design, web development, etc. 

The user experience of Monday.com is exceptional. It's very easy to navigate and customize to our needs. It's an outstanding product.

We'd like to have the ability to start a screen record or screen grab that a user can initiate from Monday.com. Then we could start a recording or screenshot directly from the project management tool and upload it directly into a task. If it needs to be redone, you simply don't attach it. If it's good to go, post it in the task and tag the needed resources to see it.

A ticketing system for outside users should be researched. We currently integrate Typeform into Monday.com and have outside clients make requests there that populate Monday with the details. Monday.com should create its own ticketing system so clients can make requests that assign to our team, receive a ticket number, and get updates as we move the project along. Once the project is finished, the requestor receives an automated email letting them know it's complete.   

I've used the solution for two years.

This is a very stable solution for growing a business, and with the ongoing updates, it continues to improve. 

My opinion is that Monday.com is a fantastic tool for scalability. 

We have not had many reasons to contact support, however, when we have they've been extremely helpful and efficient. 

We previously used Wrike. It was a good product and we adapted to its capabilities. The customization of Monday with the dashboards promoted us to make the switch to Monday.com

It was simple and straightforward to set up. There were a few learning curves, but the video tutorials were very helpful. Once we got a solid understanding of the functionality, it was very easy to use. 

We used an in-house team.

ROI is difficult to calculate. We use Monday.com to organize projects for roughly 20 clients. Whatever the number is, it's extremely favorable and a very solid investment.

I'd advise new users to think ahead to how many users you might want to integrate into this tool. It has great capabilities and functionalities and can be integrated into more than one department for organizational workflow. Consider how many people in the organization can use it to improve workflow and err on adding more users than not.

We did not evaluate other options. 

I work for a luxury wedding planning company. We use Monday.com for everything. There is a team of five of us, some of who work remotely. Monday.com helps us organize information internally between employees and also with our couples as we go through the planning process. 

For example, we have an internal board where we have organized all of our vendor contacts, login information, and content creation too. For the couples, they are able to access a board dedicated to their wedding and share feedback with us, all in one place - no more chains of emails.

Monday.com has improved our efficiency by having many different options on how to organize your information. We use the boards to track the progress of vendor research, contracts, upcoming payments, and even to plan our social media posts! It's also nice to have the information all in one place where our couples can access the board and track our progress, give us feedback, and even update items that they've checked off of their checklist. 

Monday.com is a must-have for any individual or business in the event or wedding planning industry.

Besides the boards that we use daily to organize our information, we love the survey aspect of Monday.com too. 

It makes it so easy to create a survey with different answer options for our guests, and Monday.com effectively collects and organizes the answers for us, which can then be directly exported to an Excel spreadsheet.

For example, we have set up a survey for couples who are organizing rides to and from the airport for their wedding guests and we can change the answers to have multiple choice answers, dropdowns, or even leave a space for the guests to type in their own answer. 

Once all of the data is collected, you can view it all on Monday.com or organize it in a spreadsheet, which we normally do before sending it to the transportation coordinator.

I would love to be able to have a chat option with Monday.com's IT so that if I'm looking to add a new view or experience to our planning boards, they could easily talk me through the best option. 

For example, we are looking to fully use Monday.com for every aspect of business, but there are too many options for us to scroll through, and I feel as though it would help us to go over exactly what we're looking for and a Monday.com specialist help us out because I'm sure they know more of the offerings than we do. 

I've been using Monday.com for over a year now.

We use the solution for project and team management. 

We use this to track project timelines, hours used, and the teams assigned to work on them. We also connect with clients in different time zones using the Monday.com platform and it has been working great for now. 

There are some things I think it should implement, however, overall, it is a great platform to use for big or small teams. The organization capabilities are the main draw. I wish it had a better integration with Google Drive to share assets though. 

Overall it does what we need which is to keep the team and projects aligned and organized.

We are a company with overseas teams and the platform helps us be all connected and updated in all of the projects we handle on a daily basis. 

We also connect with clients and stakeholders on any updates a project may need to have. 

We also use it for onboarding clients and new team members. This helps streamline the process and makes it very easy for everyone to learn the tool since we can set it up as different steps they need to go through. 

Everyone is happy with this solution and also with the new features they launch every month. 

The solution is helpful for managing statuses for projects, notifications, and comment sections. I especially like the dashboards where you can combine info from different boards into one. 

I like the system's integration features since they allow me to streamline my work process. The UI/UX is simple and easy to use, making it easy to see where projects are and where they are headed. I particularly like how we can post summaries and project ideas in clearly accessible locations. 

Everything we do is documented, which is useful for both internal and external purposes.

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. It would also be nice to integrate a billing system in it for agencies to bill their clients.

There are some features that are overcomplicated to implement and that are not great for the user. I don't want to have to call someone every time I want to set up new automation or special board to get help. 

There are some things we would like to be able to do that the platform doesn't have integrated and a lot of other platforms are needed to make it work. 

I've used the solution for almost two years.

We've had a good experience so far; all our questions were answered or solved.

Positive

Yes, however, this one is the one my current company uses.

We did the setup in-house.

The pricing is a bit high for the enterprise level and it doesn't offer that many extra features.

Yes, however, it was not my decision to go with this product.

There are things to improve, however, they are constantly adding new features for the users.

As a national medical practice consulting firm, we use Monday.com to manage all of our team member's daily tasks and all our client projects. We also use Monday.com to manage all of our marketing, website, and speaking engagement projects, as well as our lead nurturing process. 

We have created boards for each client and are sure to keep track of items that we've worked on for our clients by month and have created a time tracking column where we're able to log how much time was spent and bill our clients accordingly. 

We're able to seamlessly stay on top of all deadlines for our marketing, website, and speaking engagement initiatives and Monday.com is a huge contributor to our success in staying on top of our lead management.

Monday.com is an amazing project management tool. I cannot say enough great things about it. 

It has helped us to stay organized and on track with deadlines. We're also able to effectively manage our to-do lists and can easily track what deadlines are overdue, due today, due this week, and due next week in the "My Work" section. 

We love how we can create boards specifically focused on one topic and have all tasks and projects pertaining to that in one place. We can communicate well as a team in the updates section, add notes, links, files, etc. The platform is always updating so there's now a collaborative doc we can use similar to Google Docs and also we love the automation.

The features of Monday.com that our consulting firm has found the most valuable include the time tracking column, the ability to create multiple boards for each specific client as well as projects/tasks pertaining to a specific area in our company (marketing), automatons that move items once they are complete as well as automation that notifies our team when a task is complete with specific details we've customized (who completed the task, for which client and how long it took them to complete).

The "My Work" section is my ultimate favorite part of the tool. 

Making adjustments to the My Work section so that it includes deadlines for multiple columns on a board instead of just one column, would be very useful. Since the update/transition was done not too long ago from the previous " My Week" section, this has been a major flaw in the My Work section. Many of our boards have multiple deadline columns and it would be great to see all of the columns in the "My Work" section, not just one. We believe this may be an issue for multiple teams, not just ours.

I've used the solution for three years.

I'm very confident that Monday.com is a stable solution. The team is great and they're providing wonderful customer service. They are extremely knowledgable, skilled, and innovative - creating a seamless platform that is always growing and improving to be even more efficient!

Monday.com has given me one of the best customer service experiences I've ever had. They are extremely responsive and helpful.

Positive

We previously used HighRise. It was not a strong enough tool for project management. 

Yes, we evaluated Asana. 

Monday.com is the best and we are huge fans.

Our primary use for Monday.com is to help us with our project management and sales pipeline. 

We use it to keep the various departments connected so that we know what work is coming in, being worked on, and being closed out. 

We also use it to help us track the work the Marketing team is doing, both in terms of branding, document creation, and marketing campaigns. 

We also use it in some instances to share documents with one another. 

We are a small company and monday.com makes us feel very efficient.

Monday.com has improved our organization in that it enables us to stay on track and aligned on the current state of the business. 

It gives us a clear view of what work we expect to come in through our sales pipeline. 

It also enables us to assign clear roles and responsibilities for both incoming and ongoing work, from project managers to account managers and marketing to content development and delivery. 

I am not sure how we would be able to function without using Monday.com on an every day basis.

The features that I have found most valuable include the dashboards, forms, and item and task tracking. 

I appreciate the dashboards as they give me a high-level, 30,000-foot view of the current business and work that I have going on. It helps me understand the big picture so that I do not get stuck in the weeds. 

I find the forms easy to use, easy to brand, and easy to collect data from internal and external stakeholders. 

I love the item and task tracking capabilities because it keeps me on track. 

I would like to see more flexibility with sub-items as well as more customization of branding for dashboards and exported documents. I would like to be able to do the same kinds of actions that you can do with regular items (i.e., move them, batch them, etc.) with the sub-items. 

I would also love to be able to customize the look and aesthetics of the dashboards and exported documents so that I can share them directly with both internal and external stakeholders while giving them a branded experience. 

I've used the solution for three years.

Monday.com is highly stable.

Monday.com is highly scalable.

Customer service and support have been fantastic.

Positive

We did not use a different solution previously.

It was straightforward and easy to learn how to use and set up. Monday.com has great support and tutorial videos. 

We did the setup in-house.

It's all very easy and affordable - it is worth it

I was not the one to do the research.

My company is a publishing company. We use it for various different reasons. For example, Monday.com helps us to allow for greater connectivity throughout the company and to better manage various projects both internally and externally. 

It allows team members to create different teams and is perfect for the case of project management. 

Team members know who is working on what and when the assignment is due. It's also great in terms of tagging other team members for updates, comments, and links as well.

Monday has improved the company through its integration features. For example, being able to manage various teams and projects within the company. Team members know who is working on what and when the assignment is due. 

It's also great in terms of tagging other team members for updates, comments, and links as well. In addition, Monday has Slack integration which helps to notify me or other team members when they are tagged or if there's an update which is a really great feature. I don't go on Monday every day so being notified through email and Slack is helpful.

The features I have found most valuable include the Slack integration which helps to notify myself or other team members when they are tagged or if there's an update which is a really great feature. I don't go on Monday every day so being notified through email and Slack is helpful. 

Another feature is how customizable it is for our teams which allows for greater creativity. One of the things that is especially valuable is the status updates and the options available for those. 

One last feature I like is the fact it's allowing the use of Google links/Google Drive.

Monday, the service, can be improved with even greater integration and configuration. It would be great to get company-specific features depending on the specialty of the company. For example "technology, small business, publisher" etc. 

Another feature that would be beneficial is a Google Calendar integration. It would be great if due dates can be added to the calendars of specific team members. This would help to keep team members on top of projects, especially if the individual does not go on Monday every day.

My company and I have been using this product since the beginning of 2021. It's been a great service so far and we are constantly figuring out new ways to use and improve how it integrates into our company. 

It's a very stable solution that has allowed for proper management of teams and projects.

My company and I have an overall good impression of the scalability as it has been extremely helpful. 

We've never had any issues and customer service and support has been overall satisfactory.

Positive

We never switched, this is our first service.

The setup was a bit complex as the company was still navigating exactly what we needed to utilize it for. We are constantly adding more ways to use Monday as the company and teams grow.

We implemented it through an in-house advisor.

We normally advise the setup cost, pricing, and/or licensing will be very company-specific. 

No, we did not. This was our first option.

We use the product for tracking clients, client sales progress, legal matters, tasks, and subtasks, and also as a repository for certain key deal documents or links to those documents.  

It's very useful to store all the key background files (existing docs, term sheet, structure chart, list of parties, and their contact information) in a group that is easily accessible every time the matter-specific board is open.

I've also used it as a common dashboard shared with clients so they can monitor progress without having to call or email me.

Monday.com is our centralized location for managing all projects, to-dos, and tasks, as well as for managing a cooperative team.  

It helps our attorneys keep an eye on all relevant parts of a project, from both a high level and in-depth details on specific pieces.  

It is far superior to digging through lengthy email chains that are not associated with a particular piece of a transaction other than through its content.

It has helped us reduce our email usage. And as a centralized system, it helps reduce time wasted on searching or reinventing the wheel.

The flexibility to create any sort of format has been very valuable. That the platform can be adapted for each specific use. The communications piece with other users is also critical, as it allows for task-specific communication that gets stored in a history associated with the appropriate item.

The search function, to identify all tasks that are assigned to a specific person, is critical for staying on top of issues.

The integrations are a useful aspect that will continue to be key for Monday.com to become an increasingly integrated and permanent part of the work tool ecosystem.

My issue is with learning about and taking advantage of, existing features.  Perhaps they need a system that suggests features and offers quick tutorials. I primarily use the basic functions of Monday.com - groups, tasks, lists, due dates, searching, and file uploading.

If there was a way for Monday.com to take over, or interface with, my inbox, such that my email messages became associated with a particular task, group, or board, that would be incredibly useful.  

I also would be interested in a mode designed for parties in opposition (e.g., opposing counsel) to work from the same board while staying synced to some degree with items from other boards.

I've used the solution for two years.

I've never had a problem with stability.

When the number of matters and clients goes way up, a "flat folder" system of listing all boards/folders seems unwieldy and not useful. That said, Monday.com has not had an issue on the technical side with too much content.

They offer excellent customer service and support. The team is responsive to feature requests as well.

We did not use a different solution previously.

It's very simple to set up. That said, thinking about and developing a template took a lot of time and thought.

It's my understanding that we used a vendor team.  

This was set up at my firm before I joined, so my involvement was minimal.  However, make sure you have priced enough licenses for all your users, including assistants, paralegals, techs, etc.

We did not look into other options.

I use Monday for multiple things daily including organizing my sales, organizing events at jobs, etc. 

I work at a furniture company and we have everything on Monday. Basically, to put a production order from customers, we assign boards where we put all the details of that order. Then in the factory, with that same board and with all the information that we provide, they create the product. And then we can see how they are progressing through the production stages. For sales, we can see how much was sold per month, and by the same means, boards are organized to see which customers were sold to. It is a more organized system.

Monday is a platform that we use every day. I can say that it has helped improve the performance of my team. The most important thing is to maintain order, especially if you are in the sales area. We want to keep track of how much was sold per month and to whom it was sold. This helps track that. 

Also, this helps each sales representative to keep their own control and know how much commissions they are going to get for the month. Since we account for everything on Monday, this keeps the team motivated. The sales reps can see how much commissions they have earned for the month and that drives them to want to keep selling more. That's why I feel this platform is a powerful tool. We also have boards where we measure KPIs.

The best thing about Monday.com's dashboards is that they are customizable. People have their own preferences when it comes to visualization. Some like Gantt charts or timeline-based tracking dashboards. 

Also, the design of the platform is nice and clean, it's pretty to look at doesn't look busy, and makes you want to work on it. It is an easy-to-use, user-friendly, and has a customizable interface. 

Also, there are many templates to choose from when you are creating your first board. People can inform each other about what they are working on and where they are in the project. In addition, communication, collaboration, and analysis features allow users to stay on top of their projects.

The program has enough. Maybe they could improve a bit more on how to connect with other apps - especially for CRMs like Hubspot. Monday already has a little bit of everything, however, if it could connect with other platforms it would be even more powerful. The automation that Monday includes are good, however, they should add more. Maybe they need to include spaces where everyone can keep their day-to-day journal. This would be especially useful for project managers. 

In general, Monday is already a super complete app that has everything and they can make integrations with other applications that would be ideal.

I've used the solution for about a year and a half.

I am very impressed with the stability. Monday is a platform that I will be using for a long time to come.

I have been very satisfied with the scalability using this platform.

Technical support is great! They answered all of my questuons. 

Positive

Monday is the first app solution I've used.

We've seen an ROI of around 60%.

Paying Monday, in the end, is for the benefit of a company. It is worth it, especially for medium-sized companies that want to start organizing themselves.

We only looked at one other option, Asana.

Monday is one of the most efficient apps I've used.
