Great automation and date tracking with easy assignment capabilities
What is our primary use case?
My office is a boutique immigration firm. We use Monday to keep track of our active cases from beginning to end.
It helps us organize our different departments and keep track of who had what case and how they are working on it. We use Monday to provide guidance on different cases from beginning to end. We also use Monday for administrative tasks and projects. We are able to organize our different departments and sort out important cases on Monday. The automation helps everything run smoothly.
How has it helped my organization?
Monday has greatly improved the accountability everyone in my firm has regarding cases. Case managers are able to quickly assign cases and we can keep track of the entire process on Monday.
We are able to see all the active cases we have on a day-to-day basis and quickly assign them if they are unassigned. We have been able to organize each department thoroughly and separate them as necessary. We also have used Monday to aid in administrative tasks throughout both offices. It aids in our office-to-office communication as well.
What is most valuable?
We thoroughly enjoyed the automation to help us see where our cases are going next. The entire visual aspect of Monday is also a great resource for our firm as it makes it easy for us to point out certain things and for our management meetings to go smoothly.
The ability to track dates and times we need cases to be completed has been of great use to my firm. Our attorneys are able to monitor and track our cases with ease every day as they please. It has greatly improved how we track out cases and hit our deadlines.
What needs improvement?
Having more integrations for different specialties that use Monday would be great. Monday is awesome as it is, however, expanding would also be helpful.
Monday should have people reach out to different heads of businesses in different sectors to see how they use Monday and create more templates and maybe even videos on how they use it so there are more ways for people who are just starting out to find more examples to see how to tailor Monday to their needs.
I met up with a specific immigration attorney who helps immigration firms organize and pull their business to more paperless solutions she introduced us to Monday and showed us how she uses it and we tailored it for our needs.
For how long have I used the solution?
My office has been using Monday.com for over two years.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
We only used paper to "assign"/give assignments and Excel to track our cases. It was hard to keep track of who had each case and how they were doing with the assignments. The papers would also get lost in files or paper stacks, so a lot of assignments were falling through the cracks. It was hard to maintain and the switch to Monday was excellent for our case tracking. On Monday, we are able to notify those who are newly assigned to a case and track their work as well. All of our case tracking and assignments are easily visible to everyone in the firm so that nothing falls through the cracks if it is put on Monday.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
Having someone from Monday work with you on your needs for Monday is a great way to get started. It helps you see the price you should go for.
Which other solutions did I evaluate?
We met with an immigration attorney who works with organizing businesses. She said Monday was the best one so we stuck wiith it.

Using Monday has been instrumental in keeping our team of devs and admins on the same page for every task.

Great project management Platform

personally, as an employee, I don't have any issues, but editing work time may cause project leads not to know they genuinely work or not, also the finance managers cannot make correct expenses about the project.

Recommendations to others considering the product:
great platform to share work updates by creating the channel. a useful platform for software management companies
Highly recommended "one size fits all" tool
What do you like best about the product?
Monday.com has found a balance of being super customizable and as such is a great option company wide. There may be some departments where it isn't as good a fit as a niche, specialist product. But, because it is so customizable, if a business needs to find a unified solution for all departments then Monday is a great option. It's typically much cheaper than a niche specialist product is as well.
What do you dislike about the product?
Touched on above, but there are some departments that may have industry specific needs that make Monday.com not as great a solution for their niche needs as a product designed specifically for that industry/department. I've seen this get much better over time with more tools geared towards specific use cases, and I expect this to continue to get better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Currently, Monday.com is used as a place for different departments to hand off and pass around tasks so that everyone is on the same system using the same standards. However, departments are still able to customize how they handle the tasks tracking internally, and so it strikes a nice balance between customization and standardization.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
A great general use alternative to expensive niche products.
I have no idea how we would function without this
What do you like best about the product?
User friendly, organization updates are able to be seen almost immediately.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't have any tips on how to improve!
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Every company policy/guideline is viewed and discussed here, scheduling/task management/viewing tasks everyone is working on in real time.
