monday dev

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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).

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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!

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Gründe für den Wechsel zu monday dev

Vorteile

Flexibility, intuitive interface, powerful features and automation capabilities.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

I do not have any burning aspect on my end.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

Mobile access speed is not very suitable all the time

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

You can easily have a good support during your scrum process

Nachteile

Compare to Jira the user experience can be improve.

Warum monday dev gewählt wurde

Zuvor genutzte Software

Gründe für den Wechsel zu monday dev

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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!

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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

Vorteile

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.

Nachteile

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.

Vorteile

Fantastic collaboration features as well as ease of use. This software is great for most people that are visual learners, the color coding is ideal and easy for assigning tasks in our small office setting.

Nachteile

We haven't found any flaws or dislikes yet of this software. I'd venture to say that the cost per user could get costly for a large organization, however being that we are a smaller office the cost isn't too much.

Vorteile

the ability to look at your overall tasks across a team and areas and filter down using the filter tools on each board are great. I have used this tool to replicate our SCRUM process and once you dial it in the results are amazing. Just keep it simple and make it fit your process.

Nachteile

there is no real way to link a dependence from one task to another. If you need a full fledged gantt chart you may need to stick with more traditional tools. Personal I prefer the Monday methodology with Scrum.

Vorteile

It's extremely easy to use, and gives a visual overview, and at the same time so incredible flexible in how to use that it has replaced several other services for us.

Nachteile

The only left thing on my wishlist is a dead simple functionality for repeating tasks in the timeline/calendar so that we could also get rid of teamweek which we use to easily see and keep track of what each employee is working on/should be working on

Vorteile

-Easy to use
-Visual
-Constantly updated
-Great customer service
-Package options
-Not an excel based service
-Can be filtered to desired visibility (lower sales doesn't need to see management unless desired, warehouse doesn't need to see accounting if desired)
-Highly customizable
-Cross-functional
-Desktop notifications are helpful

Nachteile

-Would love to see it as an application instead of a web-exclusive service

Vorteile

The actual interface is so easy to use and allows me to clearly prioritise work. I like that i can upload files and have an ongoing commentary with the owner of each task. I also like all of the new column options. Links and numbers have been the most useful and we are now using these on every board.

Nachteile

That you can't set up dependencies between boards. For example, if a timeline changes on one board, it would be great if that automatically updated the timeline on another board.

Vorteile

Powerful workflow automation and great integration capability with other tools in use, that allows seamless project tracking and easy to customize and create complex reports in minutes.

Nachteile

We would love to see message integration.

Vorteile

- Has a combination of multiple tools that gives features like Idea Dashboard, Gantt Chart, Timeline Management
- Multiple integrations are possible (Slack, Calendar, etc)
- Time checking for each user
- Free 14-day trial to check the tool

Nachteile

- Not so expensive as its competitors
- In comments, you cannot tag teammates

Vorteile

I love how easy Monday.com is to use. Within an hour of signing up I had my whole project on paper, tasks assigned, and current statuses.

Nachteile

The only thing I would maybe improve upon is to have the ability to add notes or supporting documents below the tasks.

Vorteile

Simple ui, easy to learn processes, solid internal training modules, customizable notification schedules by role

Nachteile

Just a tad too cartoon-ish -- while the UI should be simple, don't want the bright colors and treatments to lessen the impact of the tool.

Vorteile

collaboration and work management for global team to clearly assign tasks and manage projects and bugs' progress

Nachteile

progress tracking in swimlanes and workflows, manage resourcing for engineers sprints and sharing docs across the org

Vorteile

The ease with which we can update each other and add each other to multiple different monday.com- it really makes our Agile processes much more fluid.

Nachteile

That there are no numbers that automatically count the number of monday.com-- this leaves me often times having to count by hand or to calculate the burn rate.

Vorteile

Monday strongest features are its adaptability to your business environment. It allows the creation of boards specific to the way you and your team needs them setup. this includes customizing tasks, processes, inputting of data, etc.

Further, it allows for a manager to have a broad overview of the tasks on the go and what is required to complete them.

Nachteile

A bit of a learning curve in the initial setup, and you need a strong team to implement at an operational level (i.e. what to include, monitor, etc.).

Vorteile

The application features great insight on a specific project and relate it to the company's performance. Advanced customization including dates, status, and appointments of tasks and monitor particular actions that user may do. Heavily relies on active collaboration among team members, which is a great plus.

Nachteile

Automating a calendar invite to an e-mail, making an entry on the board as well as putting a deadline on it can be a feature that can be included in an update, perhaps. Other than that, the application works well.

Vorteile

It is an excellent work manager, I love that you notify with notifications and mailbox messages, it also allows you to filter the way you receive them. The information is presented clearly and is easy to use, very intuitive and fun, has many features that make it a unique app. The functions of the dashboards are an excellent way to have all the control in a big screen, personally I love it!

Nachteile

I have nothing to say against the application.

Vorteile

Monday allows you to build a board for each project and integrate dependencies. Help tips popped up in the free trial to guide you so that the user could be operational as quickly as possible.

Nachteile

I found adding and updating the steps of the projects a little cumbersome. Likely some part of that is user error and newness to the software.

Vorteile

The feature that I liked the most and is the most impactful is the ability to integrate with other software applications to bring in data to Monday.com . It creates a seamless integration.

Nachteile

It needs more templates to help users figure out to get started.

Vorteile

It was easy to create tasks and project. With just a drag and drop and you can already arrange your tasks.

Nachteile

It is a bit expensive to go enterprise and integrate with our SSO.

Vorteile

The fact that organizing schedules in just an app makes me comfortably and eagerly use this monday.com. Our lives and stuffs changes in every single day, the feature of this application that made me'wow' is the capability of assigning anyone on tasks. It will also show how many time used in finishing tasks, when is the deadline, the progress and more.

Nachteile

Sometimes, it's not that authentic and legitimate when it comes to time of working, especially on my case. It can be edited by anyone, and so I couldn't trust it in some ways. A back up time sheet is still needed. Nonetheless, it's all good.

Vorteile

The roadmap template has almost every feature I need. Being able to link boards together make it easy to maneuver through projects

Nachteile

I would like to be able to add more participants, even on the individual version. The project is very customizable, but would like to share it with my team

Vorteile

- having a shearable interface that allows me to update other team members on my progress as well as having their progress tracked
- a flexible tool, updates on the fly, editable by all team members

Nachteile

- a way to chronologically track progress

Vorteile

Simple, intuitive, multi-purpose.

Nachteile

More complex projects or agendas are not as easily managed, however there may be improvements to this aspect in the near future.

Vorteile

Very good tool for team-work. Team members can put their own notes about status of every task and all team can see where the project is for now. So you have visually organized project management what is interesting.

Nachteile

They have a great variety of cost plans what is good, but it is still a bit expensive if you have a big team working on project.

Vorteile

Easy to use, nice interface

Nachteile

Wish we had access to write custom reports on Pusles, Groups & projects
