What is our primary use case?
I use Monday in my work. I work for a Marketing and Advertising Agency.
We are a 20-member team. Monday is really useful. The best thing (recently added) is that you can see everything that is asigned to you and keep track on what's on your plate.
As a small team with a variety of roles (like designers, code developers, writers, social media managers, and consultants) it is really useful to keep everybody up to date.
There is a way you can share a board with clients so they can see in real time how is the project running.
The app is great too. You can work even if you do not have your computer near.
How has it helped my organization?
When I joined the company, they already used Monday, however, compared with other tools that I've used in other companies, this is superior.
Monday allows for remote work perfectly. You can see the contributions made by others. You can get notified every time something has been updated.
Monday is a great way to have history and a backup for all the work done. Other tools are just like live chats, however, Monday keeps track of everything.
You can have different roles for every person in your team.
The productivity tool is one of my favorite aspects. You can even track the time it takes you to complete a task.
What is most valuable?
The productivity tool is great, as is task dependency.
You can create specific groups on your boards and give them color codes. This is really useful.
It is great that you can select if you want to see the project in list, kanban, or Gantt. This is something really useful that other tools do not allow you to do. Usually, you have to use more than one solution.
You can integrate Slack, Google, Excel, Drive, or Dropbox.
As a company that uses a variety of tools, it was great to have everything in one place, Monday was the solution.
What needs improvement?
Monday is excellent for collaboration between partners and team members, however, it would be great if there could be a way to have clients on Monday, and not just to share information. That is something you can already do. Instead, we'd like to add a client as a client so they can give real-time feedback, answer questions, and see the whole project and its stages. It takes time to copy and paste things that the client could be adding on Monday, and the team can see it with no problem, with controlled access.
For how long have I used the solution?
I've been using the solution for one year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
The solution is completely stable and trustworthy.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
They are adding some great things, however, a client version would be a really big step.
How are customer service and support?
I've never used technical support.
