Not a calendaring program . It focuses on listing tasks, simplifying collaboration, and Getting Things Done
LiquidPlanner is a great tool for Getting Things Done enthusiasts and project managers in general. It allows you to break down your project into multiple steps with best/worst case time scenarios and then gives you a complete picture of the project timeline and tasks in an easy to understand format. The reminders are fantastic! I have used it has a professional with a paid account, and also as a university student with a free academic account. I have used the timer function to record how much time I am spending on a task so that I can bill clients or to just to have it for future reference, it's a nice feature! Uploading documents really makes sharing and keeping things in a central location very handy.

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

"The entire organisation is now on the same page, with one source of truth."
"LiquidPlanner is a great tool for Getting Things Done enthusiasts and project managers in general."
"Its dashboards and reports are the most valuable, and we are able to share these reports and other information with our leadership."
"It gives me an overall view of everything someone is working on. I can go to the My Work feature, click on someone's name, and see all the tasks assigned to that person; their whole workload."
"We've been able to centralize a lot of moving parts on a digital platform that was reached by everyone in real-time (even third-party resources that weren't in the office)."
"Since we moved from Basecamp to Monday.com, we have definitely seen an improvement in how our projects are tracked, and missed deadlines have decreased dramatically."
"The value is that monday.com provides us with an overall picture of how much work a teammate has, and for each team member, and how they're doing."
"Monday.com has helped us to meet all our deadlines by allowing us to be proactive and develop the different reports way in advance."
"The mobile application is an absolute breeze to work with."
"We really like the dashboards, automation, and spreadsheets."
"Shared boards help entire teams to plan out campaigns with ease and clarity."
 

Cons

"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome. For example, I have a hard stop date and I would like a project to end by a specific date, but this is not how this solution works. It sorts of spits out the project date based on your resource availability, dependencies, and so on. This sort of project planning works in theory, but that's not always the case. It also relies heavily on resources entering their time into the system, that is, how much time they worked on each of the tasks so that it can sort of consistently update the project. I know that in a lot of organizations, including ours, it is almost impossible to get them to track the time. In terms of additional features, they can include more integration with Microsoft because integration is going to be a key functionality."
"It is a little rigorous in its methodology and is cumbersome."
"Perhaps my only comment is that it is not cheap but in saying that, it is worth every penny."
"I'd like to see more power and triggers in the iOS app."
"It would be nice to have more customization around the documents, such as different title headings, fonts, etc."
"Opening up a task and adding content/updates could be a little more organized visually."
"My issue is with learning about and taking advantage of existing features."
"The stability could be improved."
"As a new hire, it was a bit complex for me to learn and understand how to use Monday."
"In terms of pricing, it is not the cheapest. They could offer more packages."
"What would be nice is if I had two days between deadlines and adjusted the day if it would automatically adjust the deadlines, even if I had to change one or two that might no longer work, it would save a lot of steps."
"We'd like to see less downtime. There have been times when I really needed to use Monday and it would be down for half a day and saying there is an error with the system."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

Information not available
"The solution is quite inexpensive. For example, we pay $8,500 for 75 users. It's somewhere around $100 a user, approximately."
"It's quite expensive when it goes to the enterprise license. Other tools like Jira cost 5 a month, and then their enterprise license is 38 a month, which is quite expensive for what we can do. It's £500 for a tool on a large enterprise. I'd have hoped that enterprise costs go down, not up. The pro license is £14, and then everything else is much more expensive, which is another barrier for us to adopt because other comparable tools are much more affordable when you have such a high multiplier as well."
"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."
"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."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"The price is reasonable for the number of users we have."
"The pricing of monday.com is worth it."
"We tell others it's about $2200 for a ten-person plan and it can be adjusted; it's easy to scale."
