User-friendly interface simplifies project management but it requires stable connectivity
We primarily use monday.com for project management within our department, which includes sales, operations, and engineering monday.com makes it very easy to input any information. The style and format are user-friendly, making it practical for our needs despite some network issues. The need for…

Easy to understand with fair pricing and lots of unique features
We use the desktop version of RationalPlan, and It seems some desktop software has the ability to share a document as a web view. This would be a nice feature allowing us to share our plans with clients without needing additional software. This may be something that is offered in the RationalPlan cloud plan. However, it would be nice for the desktop version to have this ability to bring it one more step ahead of the competition. As a side note, RationalPlan does have a free viewer as well.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"The flexibility to create any sort of format has been very valuable."
"It saves me from having to interrupt my team to get simple answers I can look for myself."
"I enjoy being able to switch between different views of a board, such as Gantt or Kanban, as this provides alternative ways of viewing tasks and managing workload."
"I have found the automation very useful for reminders."
"With the work boards easy to convert to Gantt charts, valuable time is saved when preparing for project meetings."
"The solution is easily scalable."
"We can have different boards for different needs."
"All employees can access it so everyone is in the know of what jobs are coming in and what jobs are going out."
"Support is top-notch whenever help is needed."
 

Cons

"It does have some native report widgets, but there are limitations on those. They're still building that capability out in my opinion. The reporting in monday.com is probably the weakest link, but there are third-party apps that you can add in that do some great reporting for you. You can also tie monday.com into a data warehouse and use something like Tableau, Power BI, or any reporting tool that can report out of a data warehouse to get the more in-depth reports that you need. Monday.com will get there, but it doesn't seem to be one of their top priorities."
"The solution could be improved by adding more plugins for Adobe (not just Photoshop) and adding a plugin for Discord."
"I wish there was an option to pay for one-on-one technical assistance rather than watch tutorial videos."
"Monday.com can be improved by becoming even more simplistic in settings/layout."
"It is difficult to create templates for repeat use cases."
"We would like to connect with email solutions such as Outlook."
"If I have 20 items that all have a deadline of 3/24, I'd love to be able to update them all at one time rather than individually."
"We'd like integration with SharePoint so that it becomes easier to find and share files stored in SharePoint."
"We use the desktop version of RationalPlan, and It seems some desktop software has the ability to share a document as a web view. This would be a nice feature allowing us to share our plans with clients without needing additional software. This may be something that is offered in the RationalPlan cloud plan."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"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."
"We tell others it's about $2200 for a ten-person plan and it can be adjusted; it's easy to scale."
"The price is reasonable for the number of users we have."
"Though I am unsure about the product's pricing plan, there is a need to make monthly payments towards the licensing costs attached to the solution, and it operates on a per-user plan."
"It was fairly reasonable. For everything we were using it for, it was fairly reasonable."
"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."
"The pricing is totally fair. I don't have any issues with it."
