Overall Satisfaction with monday.com
We use monday.com to centralize our project and task management. Previously, we kept track of our tasks individually, then sent a weekly project report to our managers, but we had no visibility into other ongoing projects. monday.com allows for greater visibility into current initiatives, which is addresses our pain point of lack of communication. We use the tool to manage the creation of marketing emails, paid ads, email performance reporting, and misc tasks. Plus, I have created a private board shared with my managers for a larger project of mine. The only things that don't make it to monday.com are quick last-minute tasks.
- The accordion effect: can zoom in and out to see a broad overview of projects or detailed updates.
- Customization: Can make your boards look however you want, and add all kinds of extra info.
- Communication: Anyone can view tasks and make a comment that appears via email and via a Slack integration.
- Outside of thy main table, when you create a table with widgets, hyperlinks never work as intended. The links widget works fine, but in the text box widget, hyperlinks never actually work. You can click and click all you want, set it to open in the same tab or a new tab, etc, but it just won't open.
- We definitely let fewer tasks slide with monday.com. When there is a record that everyone can view and ask for updates, it prevents us from forgetting what we had committed to do.
Sometimes there are outages but the impact is very minor!
