Helps us to implement and understand the status of our projects
The initial setup is straightforward. The solution's deployment takes around two months time. We have to set up the solution. We have to put in the data to ensure that the solution is working. We need to fill out our process, our tools, and our data. Two developers were involved in the deployment process. It is a self-maintained solution that requires updates from time to time. I rate the setup an eight out of ten.

Centralized workflows have boosted cross-team collaboration and made complex projects manageable
monday.com can continue to improve their AI capabilities. When comparing monday.com to several alternatives when I was evaluating a project and project management, product road mapping, and workflow management platform for us, I looked at competitors such as Asana, ClickUp, SmartSheet, Airtable, and Notion. In my opinion, competitors such as Airtable and SmartSheet, especially followed by Asana and ClickUp, have worked on their AI and generative AI roadmap to combine database functionality with a very user-friendly interface for knowledge management and project tracking, essentially combining both worlds. Their AI is more sophisticated than what monday.com has released thus far. They provide a cleaner task-focused workflow management platform and I think that monday.com can still improve on this core piece of their technology. I think monday.com could also seek to be more process-oriented and intuitive. Other alternatives such as Asana and SmartSheet offer that approach. There is a steeper learning curve to learn monday.com in my opinion compared to Airtable, Asana, and others because I have also used those tools and platforms at other organizations. There is a bit of a learning curve with new users on monday.com because it is not as streamlined as I have experienced with competitors such as SmartSheet or Airtable. The capability sets are great, however, you may need to be hand-held via a monday.com rep when you get started within your organization or view the library of tutorials that monday.com has available. You can also view them on YouTube and that will help you get started on monday.com.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"I would recommend trying planningIT"
"My personal experience with the product was good, primarily because of the support team's responsiveness."
"ERP approach to IT (edit architecture elements as data using forms, easier for many people compared to drawing / modeling) Hundreds of predefined reports (not only for analysis but also for displaying profiles for single elements like an application including dynamically generated diagrams based on edited data) Very sophisticated meta model (dozens of man years of experience condensed in it) Enterprise collaboration features Web client for the enterprise, either on-site installation or running in a private cloud."
"The dashboard is the most valuable feature."
"I like how you can trigger notifications and reminders automatically when different statuses are changed or updated."
"monday.com saves time and gets everyone on the same page within my team."
"I love the time-tracking feature."
"Monday.com is effortless to use. You can customize it to adapt to your needs and work style. The product is beautiful and intuitive, which makes the work enjoyable."
"The automation process is one of the best."
"Since using Monday.com our productivity has been elevated by at least 35%."
"It's really easy to use."
"The time savings alone is worth every penny and man-hour it took settings up the business profile."
 

Cons

"Only few predefined integrations with other tools exist, most integrations are implemented via an integration module based on XML typically needing vendor expertise."
"The tool is clearly not very intuitive."
"The user-experience, enhanced performance, and in-hand governance can be improved."
"My issue is with learning about and taking advantage of existing features."
"The documentation must be available in French."
"It would be great to be able to pull an activity report."
"There are minor bugs that delete information or don’t autosave information placed. It doesn’t happen often, however, when it does it is inconvenient."
"It would be beneficial to have the ability to toggle between the traditional Monday.com pulse view and a monthly calendar view."
"Having easier access to training videos on how all features can interact with one another would be helpful."
"Service being down happens to often. They need to create a desktop version that stores the info locally so that when their servers are down, I can keep working and accessing my data. Then it could be uploaded when their servers are online."
"We need the product to keep adding automation - specifically more subitem automation."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The solution is expensive. There is a yearly licensing cost. There are no additional costs, only the standard license, and the cloud license."
"The product is not expensive."
"There are features that they're putting in the Enterprise plan that you have to pay for the Enterprise plan to use those features. The Enterprise plan is probably double or triple the Pro plan price, or it may be two and a half times. From a business standpoint, I don't like the fact that I have to pay two and a half times more to use a particular feature."
"The price is reasonable for the number of users we have."
"The project manager would be responsible for any licensing fees. As an end-user, we just follow suit."
"We tell others it's about $2200 for a ten-person plan and it can be adjusted; it's easy to scale."
"The solution is quite inexpensive. For example, we pay $8,500 for 75 users. It's somewhere around $100 a user, approximately."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
