What is our primary use case?
Our business uses Monday.com to communicate assignments to each of our departments. Our management then receives the notice of the new assignments, can communicate with other staff in an organized location related to the said assignment, and can do all of this for multiple assignments at once.
Monday.com is a very organized and easy-to-use tool.
We also use this tool as a way to track the status of online sales. We only have about half a dozen of online sales active at any time (we are 99% storefront retail, with very rare cases of online sales) and Monday.com allows the storefronts to keep track of the online sale status all in one convenient place that one of our users keeps updated as the status of the sale changes.
How has it helped my organization?
Our business has produced a new level of communication and understanding of work needing to be completed that we did not have prior to using Monday.com. Prior to using Monday.com, we were primarily using texts and phone calls to communicate, but by not using an all-inclusive form of communication, a lot of vital information was lost in the weeds and Monday.com has resolved all of these issues. Monday.com allows us to keep all communication local to the problem in question, while not losing the information needed to succeed.
What is most valuable?
The communication/update section on each assignment is excellent. The ability to ask and answer questions and update each other on the progress of an assignment, while staying in the confines of that specific assignment, while also not disturbing other assignments or adding confusion is a priceless asset.
As I included in my previous answer, we were primarily using texts and phone calls to communicate, but by not using an all-inclusive form of communication, a lot of vital information was lost in the weeds and Monday.com has resolved all of
these issues.
Monday.com allows us to keep all communication local to the problem in question, while not losing the information needed to succeed.
What needs improvement?
There should be on-screen PC/Mac notifications when the website/service is not open on the screen. If they made it similar to a social media notification, that would be a bonus. From what I've been able to find, this is not a current feature with Monday.com.
Another area of improvement would probably be a form of inclusion from outside sources of communication. I would love to be able to read a Monday.com notification on an Apple Watch, use voice-to-text to respond to the said notification, and then have that response get added to the Monday.com assignment in question.
Again, these may already be implemented in some form or fashion, however, I have yet to find them.

For how long have I used the solution?
Our business has been using Monday.com for almost two years now.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
Our company's instance of Monday.com is cloud-hosted and we have no impression of the service halting in the future. We plan to use this service as our sole project management solution.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Our company's instance of Monday.com is fairly small compared to other instances that I have seen. Our company only has around 25 employees that use Monday.com on a day-to-day basis. We keep everything within a couple of pages, and I've seen corporations that have dozens of pages open within their instance with each page essentially being used as an individual storefront. I have definitely seen cases of use where we could grow our company's instance into much more in-depth management, however, we have yet to see a need to.
How are customer service and support?
We have had minimal communication with customer service and/or support, only due to the fact that we haven't needed support in any way so far. Everything has run smoothly.
How would you rate customer service and support?
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We have tried multiple solutions in the past (Asana, Whatsapp), however, have found that Monday.com has been the easiest product to integrate completely into our day-to-day with our staff.
We have a staff of upper-level management that doesn't always want to conform to new technological inclusions into our business, especially on a day-to-day level, and we have had little to no push back on our integration with Monday.com.
All levels of management use it on a day-to-day basis and company-wide, we have had great success in communication and a higher rate of completion by the deadline on projects and assignments created within the Monday.com platform.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is completely straightforward. Our VP had no issues setting up the service for our company.
What about the implementation team?
The solution was implemented in-house.
What was our ROI?
Our ROI with Monday.com is primarily based on job accuracy and completion by goal dates issued by upper management. While we don't directly quantify a financial ROI for Monday.com within our business, we do acknowledge the growth in information retainment, higher job accuracy within our lower-level staff, and higher completion by goal dates company-wide since implementing Monday.com into our business.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
I'd advise new users to prepare to budget around Monday.com being a needed product that is never considered a dropable product. It has become a massive asset to our day-to-day production, and we plan to run full speed with Monday.com as our primary project management tool.
It was extremely simple and easy to set up for our vice president who was then able to individually invite the required staff into our company's instance of Monday.com, and within an hour he had created the infrastructure that we have operated for the last two years.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
As I said previously, we have tried multiple solutions in the past (Asana, Whatsapp). I have found that Monday.com has been the easiest product to integrate completely into our day-to-day with our staff.
What other advice do I have?
Monday.com is a fantastic project management tool that our company would recommend to any company working in any field with a deadline.
