monday dev

Avantages

Super easy to set up, and you can keep things basic if you like, or get creative with your tracking. In this way, I know that my team and I are covering all the bases. Our company's record-keeping and responsibility are both enhanced by the software. The responses to inquiries and requests from the support service are prompt, and the help videos are excellent.

Inconvénients

Perhaps this is the cost that new businesses must pay. When you realize the potential of Monday.com and Notion. For a new business, it might be challenging to afford both Notion and monday.com. It may be really convenient to receive a discount for utilizing both applications.

Avantages

I love the ease of use for most of their features. They are pretty fantastic with their Ui and Ux (Cx) and they make "Mondays" somewhat enjoyable because the Monday.com experience gives you something to look forward to (if you like organizing your work/life into neat categories, buckets, and reports).

Inconvénients

Everyone has the case of the Mondays on Monday while using Monday.

Joking aside, this software is pretty great on the surface. It makes a lot of sense for what they are trying to accomplish and they do a great job. They have Ux down.

However, I've really struggled with Monday.com in trying to 'grow' beyond their molds and default workflows. They have a lot of enhanced features (plugins, webhooks, triggers, etc) that certainly make integration easier, but as I got further into the weeds with Monday.com their Ux and understanding of advanced needs became more shallow IMO.

To link tasks into higher order buckets (think sub tasks -> tasks/stories -> Epics -> Projects) the entire thing kinda works... kinda doesn't.

Understand what they are up against tho - they are struggling to build a tool that meets everyone's needs - I get that - and for me, it didn't always measure up in the ways that make it work for my needs.

The base/entry paywall package was already kinda more expensive then other free software (or software being offered by my org) but as I kept wanting to do more and more advanced features I found myself having to pay more and more. It became cost prohibitive for me to continue to try to make Monday.com work.

Avantages

Its ease of use, the flexibility to change practically everything, colors, views, etc. is simply addictive and thus improves the working times of your entire team.

Inconvénients

To take advantage of this tool 100% you must pay, the free version is very limited and this forces you to have to pay a little, but it is very cheap!

Avantages

The thing that I like the most about Monday.com is the ease of use and automations. We don't need to provide users with extensive tutorials, just a small demo and they understand Monday.com pretty well.

Coming onto automations, they can take some time to setup, but once done, they are well worth it and saves a ton of your time.

Inconvénients

Software integrations - Monday.com still needs to catchup with respect to software integrations. They are still a lot of integrations that are missing. Plus every integration needs to be approved by an admin and there's no way to turn this off.

Avantages

Overall the interface is well designed; nice colors, fonts, spacing, etc. The tooltips on icon menu items is useful as is the ability to collapse the sidebar navigation.

Inconvénients

You have to upgrade your plan to even use the Timeline view feature, which is a basic feature for competitive apps. Our teams prefer to use the Kanban/Agile style of workflow, moving defined tasks of work through stages of production.

Avantages

I wanted to try monday, to start a project, to manufacture homemade stuffed animals, to know how long each person takes to make said stuffed animal, the workers found it intuitive.

Inconvénients

In general it is quite simple, the project tracking guide was really interesting, if you want to apply tracking to your project

Avantages

Flexibility, intuitive interface, powerful features and automation capabilities.

Inconvénients

Steeper learning curve for more complex customizations. While the core functionalities are user-friendly, delving into advanced features and automations can require additional time and effort to master.

Avantages

customizable + friendly, efficient and prompt support + automatic rules to update different sheets + dashboard

Inconvénients

no Turkish version, it is the main difficulty for implementation. There is a Gannt chart option, but it does not adapt to changing data set durations, which is not practical.

Avantages

Monday.com is great for project management. The application is pretty straight-forward and has smooth navigation. The application contains the well suited Kanban- boards and provides streamlined overview of overall project, and is favourable when it comes to customization and editing. The pre-built project templates saves time when you're starting from scratch and its pretty much easier for the basic setup and implementation on your desk.

Inconvénients

The only cons, I find in the application is that- you need to upgrade to Pro to utilize the overall features. If you're thinking to start with Basic plan then there's limited features, even the Maps, Charts and Calendar are available in upgraded plans. If you're implementing Monday.com for small work-spaces then I would suggest you to go with Standard or Pro versions.

Avantages

The multiplicity of administrative tools within the application, their precise organization, and their compatibility with the required tools is the best thing that exists within this application

Inconvénients

Mobile access speed is not very suitable all the time

Avantages

1. Services (SaaS) consumption model.
2. monday.com architecture and objects granularity as workspaces, boards, items, subitems and fields.
3. Workflow management using a variety of available automation.
4. Rich and evolving API interfaces.
5. Reporting and analytics views.
6. Out-of-the box mobile application.

Inconvénients

1. As a SaaS service the underlying Amazon AWS services can impact monday.com's performance and availability.
2. It is possible to create only "empty" new items and subitems using automation.
3. There is no option to create "new" items and subitems using a "template", which "template" for example contains comments or other content.
4. Predifiend automation options can be limiting when creating workflows.
5. Some API interfaces are not well documented and require a time-consuming "trial-and-error" approach.
6. Reporting and analytics views are created using a UI only and can be misleading as there is no way to edit the underlying code as a filter/group by details.

Avantages

Monday.com is incredibly useful for strategic planning and project management. The tool allows you to keep track of a multitude of projects all at once and allow you to really develop a visual view on the projects going on in every team.

Inconvénients

Sometimes I wish there was more ability to link multiple boards or have more customization within the fields so that I can automate some updating. As a UI, it's okay but sometimes it's not so easy to know where to begin or which type of board you need to use so you need to spend some time diving into it.

Avantages

With monday.com, it is easy to plan, track and manage projects.

Inconvénients

I do not have any burning aspect on my end.

Avantages

Among the things I like best about the software are board variety, automation, and integrations. The idea portal shows you what's coming next, and they constantly improve and add new features. There are many resources to help you learn the features - if you want to become a power user. I have very few complaints about the software.

Inconvénients

There is not much I can point out. However, in some cases, I have had difficulty understanding or implementing automation.

Avantages

You can easily have a good support during your scrum process

Inconvénients

Compare to Jira the user experience can be improve.

Avantages

It's very easy to onboard and use, unlike the giants that are JIRA or VSO, Monday is very easy to learn as well as customize to your needs.
Their Timeline feature is the best thing they did. I hope they bring it more front & center. We base most of our workflow around it.

Inconvénients

They lack basic features that other products had for ages - subtasks for example.
Their pricing is not very competitive, and doesn't make a lot of sense - it comes in brackets/buckets - so whether you have 26 or 50 users, you pay the same price. And even then, the price per seat is high.

In addition, they have a lot of small bugs that come from time to time in the UI, which makes it annoying to use.

Their support wasn't a lot of help either when we talked to our of their customer success people.

Avantages

Monday.com is 100% plug and play and intuitive from the start. Task breakdowns are simple, structure is easily understandable and for the most part, customization is a breeze - be as granular as you'd like. The setup works incredibly well for agile projects and will be a big hit with list makers.

Inconvénients

It's somewhat difficult to manage creative projects or projects that have creative pieces in Monday. While there is room for comments, threading is difficult and collaboration is tricky. It can also be tough to see which project pieces are dependent on other tasks quickly.

Avantages

The software is feature-rich and easy to use. It's very flexible so it can meet almost any need you have from creating workflows, tracking tasks, managing contacts, or managing a complex project. It has a robust, easy-to-understand interface, excellent reporting capabilities, and flexible admin controls. Their mobile app is easy to use.

Inconvénients

The only thing I don't like about the software is having to wait for all the up and coming features to be released. It supports sub-items for each task, but some of the more robust support for subitems are still being developed.

Avantages

Monday.com is integrated into a wide variety of services. Among these are the dropbox, excel, G suite, slack and Trello platforms. There are an infinity of templates for projects, and all are completely customizable and adaptable to our work needs. With this software it is quite convenient to monitor the working time of each member. We dare to recommend Monday.com as a versatile, economical and very convenient to use service. Maybe it's the first project management platform so customizable. It is ideal for conducting surveys, and for subsequent monitoring. There is also an excellent and customizable group chat available.

Inconvénients

You can not manage any project retrospectively, and for unified communication it does not have an audio and video conference system, nor does it allow for routing of calls. Calls can not be recorded either, and fax can not be managed. Another lack of service is that it does not offer the possibility of doing email marketing referring to our project.

Avantages

We call it Excel on steroids.
Easy to create tables with great formatting options and great visualization.

Inconvénients

Relationship between different tables which make it in some cases to track tasks from different teams on a central page

Avantages

- Ease of use
- Customization
- Design
- Endless use cases

Inconvénients

- Price
- They release new features all of the time which can sometimes have a negative affect on other features or board responsiveness

Avantages

Monday.com is really customizable and easy to use! I feel like the visuality of the whole software as it allows you to quickly find out what you need to know. I also love all of the integration options!

Inconvénients

Monday.com doesn't support dependencies on the timeline, which was something that I really wanted to input into our timelines for my team. I feel like it would push my team members to get something done if they knew another piece was waiting on them.

Avantages

I used monday.com for a very long process in one of my work tasks that involved multiple people. I was very easily able to map out each step and each person could tick off when they had completed their job so we could constantly see the progress being made.

Inconvénients

In the end my colleagues found trello to suit our needs overall but I believe for certain tasks this is the perfect tool.

Avantages

We have recently added Monday.com to our team and if you're an Agile type of business where you want to easily assign tasks and share ideas, information, then this is the right software for you. This software has helped us with taking accountability for each backlog task or project. It is a great way to know where your weaknesses are as a team, since it's visual, it's easier to for all of us to see the big picture.

Inconvénients

Sometimes the system freezes. I personally am very pleased with the software and hot it has helped out team to optimize our backlog. Before we used to do it by hand and sticky notes.
