Helps you avoid delays because you can visualize your deadlines and track your progress
I like the automation you can do with monday.com. You can automate priorities, status changes, notifications, etc. You may need another solution to create this automation in other tools, but monday.com includes everything. The Gantt view for project planning is also pretty good. The interface is another area where monday.com shines. It is colorful and visually appealing. You can paint with colors, and there are multiple views. If you are the type of person who wants all of your information displayed linearly, you can set it up in lines. It's the best tool for evaluating timelines and projects. The most challenging part is deciding how you want to display your information, but as soon as you know what you're doing, it's effortless to view where you are in the project and who's involved. You can set up a simple project in under five minutes, but a super complex one might take a few days. I think it's straightforward if you know how you want to organize your information. monday.com is accessible to non-technical users but takes a lot of time. They have many tutorials, and you can easily use monday.com if you can take the time to go through them and learn. When you initially create a project, it's only a board with lines on which you enter the tasks. You have some columns with the task owner, status, deadlines, etc. It is not that easy to understand all the features and how you can use them for your case, which is why people contact me. When you implement the tool, you decide which layout to use and what information you want to disclose. I've seen clients who have been using this for three years, and they still only know how to do things one way because they haven't taken the time to understand all the features. It's crucial to spend time at the start and learn the tool. I don't think the learning curve is that huge.

A modular, easy-to-use solution that needs to improve support and include automation
There are one or two annoying things. For example, if you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself. That's annoying. If you have five items in the drop-down list or if you have a hundred, it's just pathetic. It makes no sense that you have to do that because I've never seen it not work before in any other system that I've ever worked with. If you make a list of things, most solutions automatically put it in an alphabetized order. Or it'll put it in date order, but there is some order. It doesn't just go randomly in the order you create them. For example, I might load about 20 neighborhoods into a drop-down list, starting at "a" and ending at "z." But I might miss one of the "b's" and two of the "c's," so I add them, but they are added after the "z." Then I have to go to the bottom of the list, click on the one that starts with "b," and drag it all the way up to the "b's." That's just a pain in the butt.

Quotes from Members

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

Pros

"It allows us to know in advance when each part of the project would be finished, and thus optimize our time."
"Integrations with Slack and integrations as a whole are wonderful."
"The boards and the sub-boards are great."
"I love the automation and level of customization available for the automation."
"The tagging and notification features are great."
"I like planning out steps within an item with dates."
"Monday.com colors are friendly to the eye."
"The power of the dashboard that the solution gives you means you can do risk, timeline, and cost-benefit analyses for your initiatives. It gives you a complete perspective on the impact of your future decisions and initiatives for the upcoming quarters."
"The fact that we can build our own modules on the solution is really quite attractive, and it's not overly complex."
"The most valuable feature of Vtiger CRM is automation."
 

Cons

"Monday is one of the more expensive tools available."
"The workload widget should work with the time-tracking column for more accuracy in managing team resources."
"Coordination with different social media platforms would be a convenient feature."
"Perhaps a direct interface integration with social media channels would be ideal."
"The solution shouldn't let the system directly pull out Outlook (the Windows default mail system) whenever we click on an email address."
"The dependencies and Gantt chart could be better."
"I'm not such a fan of the infinite scroll to the right."
"It would be great to have better email integration so that you could have all of your inboxes consolidated there."
"If you make a drop-down list of something, it doesn't automatically alphabetize the drop-down list. You have to manually go and drag items up and down and alphabetize them yourself."
"The mobile design could improve in Vtiger CRM. It could be more user-friendly."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"Fees are paid monthly per user."
"The licensing cost is not that high for monday.com. However, if you need an implementer, the cost is high because there aren't so many monday.com professionals."
"It was fairly reasonable. For everything we were using it for, it was fairly reasonable."
"The pricing of monday.com was a little bit high for us, especially here in South Africa, compared to Basecamp."
"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."
"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."
"We tell others it's about $2200 for a ten-person plan and it can be adjusted; it's easy to scale."
"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 price doesn't change when you add users. It's a flat fee, and that's attractive."
"We are using the free open-source version of Vtiger CRM."
