A stable product that ensures better team coordination and better project management in an organization
What is our primary use case?
I use monday.com in my company for work management, project management, and task management.
How has it helped my organization?
With the use of the tool in our organization, we have had a good experience with better team coordination and better project management, but one cannot modify it.
What is most valuable?
Though the product's interface is quite simple, it lacks some functionalities. There are some automation areas that work quite well in the solution, but the product lacks in certain items when it comes to implementation.
What needs improvement?
Mostly, the sub-items in the organization of the project are areas where improvements are needed. Though it offers full customizability, the table is an area where the product's performance is not quite up to the mark. From any improvement perspective, the solution should consider the aforementioned areas where it lacks.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have experience with monday.com. I use the solution's latest version since it is a SaaS-based product.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability-wise, I rate the solution a nine out of ten.
More than 200 people in my company use the solution.
Our company has plans to increase the usage of the solution in the future.
How was the initial setup?
The product's initial setup phase was straightforward.
The solution is deployed on the cloud.
The solution is always ready to use since it is available in the cloud, but you need a week or two to get the product working correctly.
For the deployment, you mostly create your team and invite people, and you complete the templates and dashboard. The longest part of the deployment is related to the dashboard, as you need to customize the dashboard to your needs.
At least two people with technical knowledge are required to take care of the deployment and maintenance of the product, but as it is a user-friendly tool, anyone can manage it.
What about the implementation team?
Our company's in-house team managed the product's installation.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
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.
What other advice do I have?
Those who plan to use the solution should take time to dive deep, test, and try to customize the product to meet their needs.
I rate the overall product a nine out of ten.
All round great productivity tool

Ok for simple projects

It's very straightforward compared to heftier platforms like Jira. Very intuitive and easy to manage individual items.
What do you dislike about the product?
It's dreadful if you have a large number of projects and you need to manage resource across those projects. You can only get combined data across up to 20 boards at any one time so doing capacity planning or time management doesn't work. The reporting is dreadful - you cannot manipulate the data to get what you need - you're mostly stuck with what it gives you.
