Tracking and analytics
Thorough and Adaptable Solution for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
It's thorough and adaptable. It has columns and features for any one organization's need. It helps me stay on track with all my projects, when fully implemented.
What do you dislike about the product?
It is only as strong as its weakest link. I think it's a little intimidating at first, which drives people away. If a few people don't use monday, the boards fall apart (because of subitem dependencies, deadlines, etc.).
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping me keep track of it all. The forms feature is particularly beneficial for my team, as we have franchisees, who submit creative requests that then get populated right into the Ad-Hoc board we have. This, along with repeatable tasks like our blog and email schedule, fits all of our needs.
Monday.com - a good start to the working week
What do you like best about the product?
I have used a lot of work and task management systems and Monday.com is most suitable and flexible for my needs. Creating something bespoke is relatively simple and if you know what you are doing then you can create some quite clever solutions to help with workflow and task management. I used the customer support service and it was quick and responsive.
The learning curve is pretty easy and there are some built in templates and features that are really useful.
This meant that I was able to use it for simple task management quickly, while a few YouTube videos helped with some of the more technical aspects of the system and how it worked.
I now use the system every day to manage my workload and the team are increasingly using it to keep on track of each others project workloads.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are some aspects that caught me out when I first started using it. Firstly, when setting up 'boards' automations can be added without your knowledge and if you don't want to be constantly emailed or have colleagues updated, then you need to know to turn these off.
Also, by default your boards are accessible across the company. I thought the main workspace was a private area, but if all boards are showing everywhere, then you end up with an unmanageable list of projects you aren't involved in.
Also, if you want to do something more complex, it gets very complex very quickly. This means that you may end up with an expert who sets up the boards and understands how they work and where the connections are, but if they leave people will be in trouble. That's not much different from having a specialist in Excel leave and people struggling to keep their spreadsheets working.
Online reviews talk about the good design wearing off once you encounter the systems complexities.
It is important for users to be very clear on what they want the system to do, so they can tailor it to their needs.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An increasing number of complex projects needed careful management. Each project had more than 100 tasks and there were dozens of them, so keeping track was difficult, while workflow wasn't consistent between each one.
I used Monday.com to create a template of the tasks for each project, then each time a new project starts, it is downloaded and used as a reminder of what needs doing and a ticklist to monitor progress.
Now, if I leave a project for a while, I can quickly remember what steps I had completed, as long as I am consistent about keeping notes in the system and ticking off tasks as they are completed.
I am also using Portfolios to automatically show a summary of task progress.

Effortless Task Management with Board Duplication
What do you like best about the product?

The ability to communicate and track tasks among multiple team members.
Exceptionally Organized and User-Friendly

Streamlines Meetings with Easy Task Tracking
What do you like best about the product?
I really like how monday Work Management facilitates task tracking with ease, making it straightforward to keep an eye on various items and assign them to team members efficiently. This feature ensures that tasks are distributed optimally within a centralized system where everyone can see their responsibilities clearly. Additionally, I appreciate how the platform enables us to set clear timelines for these tasks, which brings transparency and clarity to our workflows. This helps in maintaining organized progress, ensuring everyone is aligned with their duties. Furthermore, the process of setting up monday Work Management was very easy, especially since we didn't switch from another platform, allowing us to create and establish our structures from a blank slate seamlessly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find connecting one board to another within monday Work Management to be a bit clunky. It seems like a technical challenge that my team needs more expertise in. Despite our efforts, not everything communicates well with each other. This aspect could be improved to be more user-friendly, allowing any of our staff to manage these connections quickly and efficiently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use monday Work Management to manage tasks and meeting notes, ensuring clear action steps. It centralizes documents, making them accessible for quick reference, while tracking tasks with clear timelines assigned to individuals, enhancing team coordination.
Effortless Organization and User-Friendly Search
What do you like best about the product?
It organizes all relevant items into a single section, making it user-friendly and easy to search.
What do you dislike about the product?
When the website crashes, it often takes a while before it returns to normal operation. Additionally, we don't always need every update, as there can be quite a few sent to us.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We add all of our invoice queries to the Monday board & are all able to see updates from our customers & internally.
It's a good platform, but it has areas for improvement.
What do you like best about the product?
I like the organization within the platform
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that you can't customize your boards more, and even your workspaces with more images.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I like managing multiple tasks and how I can track them.
Exceptionally Easy to Use with Accessible Training
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use, easy to understand and accessible training. Support features provide easy to follow solutions and guidance as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Can be time consuming to adopt for users less adept at software programs/solutions. I expect AI features will improve this barrier.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Consolidates communication on key projects and tasks in a central location reducing emails and missed threads in Teams or other work flow platforms. Allows for deadline tracking and automated reminders to improve adherance to deadlines and provides insight into work load placed on key teammembers.
Intuitive UI with Powerful Automation Features
What do you like best about the product?
I really like the user interface of monday Work Management; it's very intuitive, clean, and aesthetically pleasing. It has all of the features that I could really ask for. I really enjoy the automations, which allow me to automate tasks and reminders and move items into different groupings like a 'done' or an 'archive' automatically. These features help in efficiently managing projects and staying organized, ensuring that tasks are allocated to different people effectively. The system also helps track projects from start to finish and keeps me in touch with my team, sending helpful reminders to stay on top of deadlines. Overall, the platform provides better task tracking than what I experienced with Trello, and the initial setup was extremely easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the only issue occurs when people don't set up boards in an intuitive way. However, this is more of a user issue rather than a flaw in monday Work Management itself, as I find the platform to be very intuitive.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use monday Work Management to allocate tasks, track projects from start to finish, stay organized, maintain team communication, and set reminders to meet deadlines.
