What do you like best about the product?

If you could mix together Facebook, X (Twitter), and Dropbox and use them to get your work done, that would be Monday.
A simple, yet powerful and intuitive platform to work in which all the updates are like Facebook posts, and every replay is like a Twitter thread.
A great advantage of Monday is that you can easily communicate and share files with coworkers across boards and keep them in the loop.
The latest addition to the Monday platform (2024) is an AI assistant. This new tool can help generate tasks, build formulas, summarize documents, improve text, etc. It is still in BETA; however, it is helpful. Also, they improve the core engine, and it loads faster.
Depending on the team's needs, you can customize a board for your team's needs; however, Monday has template boards for sales, marketing, project management, and so on.
Boards are the starting point. When you create one, you can invite users and ad roles. Each board can have different pulses (think of them as tasks or projects). Each pulse can have its name. You can upload and store files for that specific pulse in "info boxes," which I, as a graphic designer, find quite useful. You can create updates, which are like comments, and tag colleagues as if you were using X (Twitter).
Every time you create an update, you can tag a coworker. He will receive a notification through email or on Monday as well. That way, you know your communication flows. Also, there's an icon that allows you to check who has seen your update.
Monday offers integrations with a wide range of tools and external platforms, including Gmail, Microsoft Teams, Adobe Creative Cloud, Slack, Linkedin, Hubspot, Zoom, Zendesk, and Shopify, to name a few. Each integration offers different options within Monday, but at the end of the day, you can do everything on one single platform.
Another cool feature of Monday has to do with automation. You can generate simple and very helpful scripts to accomplish several tasks. An example is to notify a team member when the status of a pulse changes; that way you don't have to do it manually, Monday does it for you!
Finally, Monday offers a wide range of tutorials and help pages; therefore, if you are a new user, you will find valuable help right away. Also, Monday keeps improving every day, and usually each month there are webinars to learn about new tools and improvements.

What do you dislike about the product?

Regarding things I dislike, there are really few.
When you search to find a pulse through all the different boards on your account, there is an option to search in the archived items, unfortunately, that option is always disabled, which I don't like because most of the time, I search for items that are already archived.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Before using Monday, I was using email, an excel sheet, and dropbox to keep track of my projects.
More often, I started to miss emails, and I forgot to reply or follow up with the client. Later on, I forgot to update the excel sheet, and dropbox links were placed in emails and, excel sheets as well.
With Monday, I can do it all in one single platform and even get reminders or alerts when a due date is coming.
Monday helped me to save time, to make communication fast and efficient, and integrate several services and tasks in one single place.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

If you are moving around from one tool to another, switching all the time from excel sheets, to email to managing files, and trying to follow up with clients, and customers, you will find Monday quite useful. All the integrations, automation, and flexibility will be of great help for you, your team, and even clients.
You will find Monday as the place to integrate all your work flow and find a board dedicated to your special needs.

What do you like best about the product?

Automations in Monday make things easy to use and manage items. It is easy to record actions and keep track of new and old items. I have also used Monday to track a latest release of templates and coordinate new changes that needs to be changed for an existing template.

What do you dislike about the product?

Automations are somewhat limited in how many actions automations can do. I would like to be able to create an automation that does multiple actions instead of making multiple automation that do one action

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

The problems that we solve using Monday are gathering and collecting information on projects, as well as keeping schedules and tasks on task. I primarily use Monday to collect data on projects and schedule when the project can be started and completed.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

Monday is an extremely useful tool to organize tasks and manage projects and information.

What do you like best about the product?

Monday.com is a great project management software tool. We use it to manage a variety of projects, from marketing strategy to social media calendars, copywriting, email automation and full website design and development. I love the visual aspect (clean interface, bright colors, simple UX) and the ability to create templates for almost any kind of project—short- or long-term.

What do you dislike about the product?

My only real dislikes are the inability for shared users to reorder their boards (can get messy quickly if you're subscribed to more than a few) and the fact that "folders" are essentially invisible when trying to automate or visualize/track projects. For example, to see total tracked time for all users who are working on any social media calendars, each calendar has to be added to the report rather than automatically selecting all boards within the social media folder.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

First, the ability to see an entire project from start to finish and know the status at any time has been very helpful. Templates have helped us streamline and better use our time on long projects. Automations and integrations have allowed us to create repeating tasks up-to-date and scheduled accurately. Time tracking keeps us accurate with our project estimates.

I most enjoy the ease of organization when categorizing and managing projects. It's super easy to see exactly where a project is at with a quick glance.

There are lots of different ways to use Monday and communicate on there, and you can customize how in-depth you get with it.

You can't individually manipulate column titles of different groups on the same board. Sometimes there is downtime and bugs.

What do you like best about the product?

One of our biggest struggles has been communication within our organization: both company-wide and inter-departmental. One of our employees discovered Monday and it has aided greatly in improving communication across our organization. We have a few employees who have become super Monday ninjas and they keep us all in the loop when it comes to features that would aid us and keep us moving forward.

Monday's platform really makes it easy to see/share/update everyone in the organization as to who is doing what, when. It is intuitive and allows for even our more novice users to learn quickly.

Some of our users complain that they get too many emails, but that's few and far between.

It has integrations with many of the other programs we use such as Box. We have been using for over a year and it is now our main hub for managing project tasks and communication.

What do you dislike about the product?

Nothing! We even had an issue with a integreation with another program last year and their support team was able to rewrite an interface to better support our need. They are able to adapt the program to almost any need you may have.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

No problems - Having this be our hub for all project task tracking and communication helps us avoid managing multiple spreadsheets and documents seperately and helps us minimize the use of email internally for communication.

The only con is sometimes i find it hard to navigate to different boards but that could just be my.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have created a check-off list and gathering point for every construction job, so multiple users can log in edit status and see what progress each job is at no matter where they are, from staff in the field to workers in the office. I even use it for myself to track my sales and Christmas party list.

User interface looks great and makes it easy to use. My company is able to organize projects and loop everyone involved. We also keep directories and contact information available to all who need it as well.

Nothing. Perhaps, the default notifications are set to notify all users with each update. You'll have to turn it off so it doesn't overwhelm the new users.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

We have used Monday to create workflows that will enable all new staff to onboard in a shorter period, and with less training. Our staff are onsite a few days a week and work the rest from home. Monday enables us to be transparent about progress and communicate easily in our model.

We use Monday to create simplified weekly and annual workflows for positions in the school that can be overseen by supervisors

We track key measures through dashboards so managers and upper-tier managers have access to key data.

What do you like best about the product?

Monday does the work of at least 3 or 4 individual products and keeps getting better. There are also many integrations and they keep updating and adding regularly. It combines spreadsheet with todo list and project management functionality. I also love that I can use it it on desktop, iPad, and phone.

What do you dislike about the product?

Being web-based it is occasionally slow or down for short periods. This can leave you without access to your workflow. We regularly use the map function and it can be a bit buggy sometimes.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?

Monday has helped to streamline my workflow and communicate better with colleagues throughout a project. Previously used 3 or 4 other programs to do what Monday does. We recently eliminated a huge, unwieldy spreadsheet and replaced with a Monday board and the transition has been great. Streamlined workflow allows much more to get done with out entering info in multiple locations.
