Great Project Management and Creative Ideation Tool

Kommentarer: Monday is a great CRM, project management and sales tool. Even though, I believe they have many features to upgrade and improve.

Fördelar:

I like Monday simple approach to create tasks and organize ideas with labels. The collaboration features are very flexible and that's something my team loves.

Nackdelar:

I believe certain aspects of the user interface are distracting, for example the strong colors highlights can confuse the focus point of the screen you're at.

Good Tracking System

Kommentarer: At first it was a great tool to play around with to figure out the best way to track our event and who was working on what portion. The quick look at the colors to see the progress was great. There was a place to put notes and mention people in posts to let them know there are tasks waiting for them. However, the customization was not the best. If you added one column to a section, it added it in for all sections. I did not have the time to take a deep dive but maybe if we got a higher package we would have more functions to organize. It was encouraging/discouraging to see the progress of the event and held people to be accountable for their portion. However, having to update this daily as we got closer to our event got too laborious to do. In concept, it's a good tool, but was not the right fit for my company and I.

Fördelar:

That I was able to see what my co-workers were working on and their progress with the task. They used easy-to-view color-coded options.

Nackdelar:

You are able to clearly see the progress of your co-workers, however, it is hard to make updates or edits to the task. There is an area to make notes, however, it is not in the front for people to see right away. You need to click in to the whole task. Also, when you make a column for one section it creates it for all. Some columns are not necessary for each section and can be confusing when updating.

Good for planning but has a learning curve

Kommentarer: It is a great product, but I feel like it is not a great fit for me and my business, or I found it difficult to learn and set it up how I want it to serve me and my business.

Fördelar:

I like that you can customize and plan your workflows and your project boards. You can set up different boards for each project and set a workflow according to time and the different tasks that are necessary for each project.You can see all your project deadlines and tasks in a calendar so you can also see where you need to focus on. I use Monday.com only for myself, but teams can be added and tasks can be assigned, but they can be tracked and you can be notified when a task status changes. I think this is very helpful for teams.

Nackdelar:

Personally, I find it difficult to use. Although it has many great features, especially when just starting, I found it difficult to know how to add tasks, or how to create a proper workflow. If you just use the boards for standalone projects, it is easy to use though.

Projet Managment is a breeze!

Kommentarer: Overall, excellent! I mean, I have used several PMS like Trello, Slack, Jira, Wrike and the likes - Monday.com is the fireworks and the linchpin in the industry. If you have critical projects to manage (which I'm talking about project managers) this one is indespinsable.

Fördelar:

Workflow Configuration. Here, you can configure your workflow to your hearts content - supported by hundreds of there available widgets. Automation. A killer feature of Monday.com I haven't used or found with some other PMS. It does a good job of nudging everyone of everyday tasks. Customizability. Fairly user friendly. Customized modules, visuals, workflows etc. You name it. Customer Support. Best customer support with high product knowledge.

Nackdelar:

Price. This can be expensive for solo users. But, then again they have free provisions for single users with threshold in it obviously. Technical. This can be technically taxing at first. Can be complicated for first time user, which is understandable for a Project Management Software with wider and deeper span. Glitches. Some of the function tends to glitch sometimes. Such with you colorize text to emphasize it. Tends to go against the user.

Övervägda alternativ: Jira, Trello och Wrike

Anledningar att byta till monday.com: Monday.com got it all. This has been developed with end-user in mind. We've tried Jira - which is also the reason why we find Monday.com because Jira works almost opposite of Monday.com. Monday.com is a breeze to use.

Great for nonprofit start ups

Kommentarer: Monday has allowed us to cost effectively scale our services to meet the demand of our Warriors in need of mental health services.

Fördelar:

The flexibility to build a customized product that fits our needs. Monday allows us to create automations that help communicate and roster clients into services.

Nackdelar:

The user interface can get a bit burdensome to make all the automations work.

Övervägda alternativ: Airtable och Google Sheets

Anledningar att välja monday.com: We needed automation to organize and communicate with our clients and vendors.

Tidigare programvara: Google Sheets

Anledningar att byta till monday.com: Monday.com has the flexibility we need to build out our systems while still being HIPPA compliment. This is a very rare combination but luckily, it is at a very attractive price point that allows us to scale our operations.
