PW
Project manager at WITS
Effective project tracking enhances decision-making but requires improved subtask hierarchy
I would like to have the ability to create more than two levels of subtasks in monday.com. It was a significant challenge as I often wanted to make a task dependent on another group, but it was difficult. It would be more efficient if it were easier to establish dependencies across different groups.
Willem Lambrechts - PeerSpot reviewer
Managing Director at Drebbel
Offers the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting
We do a lot of analytics and reporting ourselves. We don't necessarily use all the features that Pipedrive provides, but it's very helpful at least. It has streamlined our deal-closing process. We use it for everything. When we create a lead, we put it into Pipedrive. That lead can be converted into an opportunity, which we manage through our whole pipeline. This includes having all data related to the opportunity in one place. Once the deal is closed, we use Pipedrive to follow up on the invoices until they are paid. We also manage sales commissions and payments to our salespeople through Pipedrive.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"monday.com is an excellent tool to follow your project timeline to see where you are and where you want to go. It's super flexible. Thanks to all the automation, you can do practically anything with monday.com."
"I love that status updates move items from board to board."
"Monday.com has been helpful to us in multiple ways, however, primarily it has been great in the ability to think through details and assign them to different coworkers."
"We have many different automations set up for different use cases."
"Integrations with Slack and integrations as a whole are wonderful."
"The scalability is unlimited."
"It has allowed our small team of five to deliver more projects on time and with quality as well as instill trust with clients that their projects do not fall through the cracks."
"We use the status column quite frequently and the search bar to easily find specific customers and orders."
"The biggest and the best feature is the view that you get when you log in. You have a board like Kanban when you log in, and you've got a column on the left and several other columns that move to the right, depending on where you are in a particular deal. If it's a prospect or someone who is just looking, you move it along the process, and it really helps you keep track of where you are."
"The solution is pretty easy to use and intuitive."
"Pipedrive makes it easy to understand who I'm talking to at a glance. It has all the activities, node features, opportunity interface, deal interface, and time drive deals.The sales process is extremely simple, which saves me time and energy. I can send the document for e-signature and make the most out of my deals. I can automatically send emails and phone calls. You need to do only a little API programming. It offers massive flexibility. You can run an entire enterprise on the platform. The ease of use facilitates huge adoption."
"It's very flexible and we can really fit it into our business model."
"The most valuable feature is the ability to create timelines and custom fields."
"Pipedrive's most valuable feature is reporting and insights. The CRM shows the database and lets the salespeople arrange their daily activities. The insights are essential from a management point of view because it helps the sales staff improve or adjust their whole sales cycle, activities, and quality."
"The most useful thing is the ability to create multiple pipelines and the flexibility in filtering and reporting."
"The initial setup is straightforward."
 

Cons

"The web page can be a bit buggy at times, especially after I switch to a different tab and then come back to the Monday site after leaving it idle for a few minutes."
"I would love to be able to hide rows visibility. Currently, this is only available for columns."
"It has more limitations than we expected."
"The marketing notification emails from Monday.com are really poor and of little value to the user."
"We need the product to keep adding automation - specifically more subitem automation."
"Constant updates mean the service is down sometimes, which isn't ideal."
"The solution could use a more streamlined Google Calendar integration."
"Automation is often glitchy for us. Maybe we have too many automations set up?"
"The form builder works even though it has some shortcomings...Also, the forms don't have the ability to avoid or stop people from signing up if they don't have a corporate email."
"You must pay more if you need an additional feature."
"The tool's APIs are challenging. It should also be compliant with HIPAA, FINRA and GLBA. The data centers should be within US so that they are compliant with regulations."
"New features sometimes seem bolted on rather than being smooth."
"The integration possibilities with other systems could be better as well. We use it in connection with Octopus CRM, and there's room for improvement."
"Pipedrive has some weaknesses against Salesforce. The documentation of Pipedrive could improve. They need more qualified documentation because I had to fix my colleague's work to correct the reports because they did not find how they can do it, or develop reports. There are some misunderstandings about how to do reporting."
"The automation process is challenging."
"In future releases, I would like to have a highly intelligent integration service where you can easily connect PipeDrive with other tools, even if you are not a developer."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"The pricing of monday.com is worth it."
"The product is not expensive."
"I rate the tool's pricing a six out of ten."
"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."
"I wasn't involved with the licensing, but I believe it's negotiable."
"The price is reasonable for the number of users we have."
"monday.com's pricing is fair compared to its competitors, although it is a bit more expensive than most of them. It's more expensive than Jira, Zoho, ClickUp, and Trello. But it is fairly priced when you compare the kinds of features and the capabilities that you get and the ROI."
"The project manager would be responsible for any licensing fees. As an end-user, we just follow suit."
"On a scale of one to ten, where one is a low price, and ten is a high price, two or three. For us, everything is expensive because this is a startup, but for a normal company, it should be peanuts."
"Pipedrive keeps increasing the prices, which is becoming a bit annoying. It was reasonable when we started, but now they're increasing all the time."
"As of now, the pricing and value are quite good."
"The product is expensive but provides valuable services."
"Pipedrive is relatively more affordable than other solutions."
"The solution's pricing is excellant. It costs 65 dollars a month for top tier plan."
"We pay $1000 a month for the tool."
"The solution is affordable."
