Chose monday dev
Monday is better than Jobber, as it gives you a place to see where all the jobs are and what the current status is. Everyone in the company can go to and see that view. It's not dependent on the status of the employee. Excel is much more technical and requires much more work to …
Chose monday dev
It is at least as good as these tools, in many ways, it is better because it is easier to use and setup. It doesn't require a full-time admin like these tools do. It does lack some of the detailed reporting and such that these offer, but the product is still young and growing. …
Chose monday dev
We selected it because of our previous positive experience with monday dev. In addition, it gave us more options to tie in other parts of our business so it’s under one umbrella and then further automate things. The over tracking and monitoring ability is far better than others …
Chose monday dev
I think that overall the way that monday dev stands out among its competitors is the great design layout and also its ease of use. Most platforms have so many steps when editing a project or customizing its view, and when you work with monday dev, you are able to customize it …

User Testimonials
Eksomonday dev
Likelihood to Recommend
Gemini is well suited to help track issues and change requests, projects, bugs, time logs, etc. It is less appropriate for reporting needs or general office management needs.

If you do web programming, code integration with your remote team, and/or software development that requires real-time monitoring of development progress, monday dev is an excellent tool for this. Like its base platform, Monday.com, monday dev is developed and attempts to integrate into a very "new era" organizational system of digital whiteboards, only now focused more on productivity and helping developers to be comfortable in remote work.

Pros
  • Gemini offers flexible framework that allowed IT to build a workflow based process. IT change requests were divided into several buckets: New Change Requests group for business units to submit requests for enhancements and new project ideas, Pending Change Requests for approved projects that are waiting for IT resources, Application Development where we track active projects, Defect Tracking where bugs are tracked during testing and finally Release Management where requests for deployment are tracked.
  • Gemini allows to create custom fields and add them to View, Edit and Add screens. This flexible model allowed us to track additional information on the project such as IT Point of Contact, System Name, Team Name, Testing dates, etc.
  • Gemini has flexible email notification model that allows to keep business customers informed on the project progress. Whenever comment is added by project manager email alerts goes out anyone that is set to watch project progress.

Cons
  • It would be useful for Gemini to offer a mobile-friendly version.
  • It would be helpful for Gemini to provide more granular control over email notification options. Currently, we cannot turn off update type emails
  • Gemini could improve homepage design to provide a dashboard for all projects in the system.

  • Sometimes, it's a little technical to set up. Someone who isn't particularly savvy will have a hard time setting it up.
  • Sometimes there are glitches in the automations.
  • The comments areas can be confusing- how they nest. Things can get lost in there.

Usability
No answers on this topic
This has been one of the better software implementations and acquisitions that I have been a part of in the last 20 years. The ease of setup, use, and training make this a simple and quick tool to implement in any organization. The usability is so simple that the uptime to start using it is nearly 0.

Return on Investment
  • Gemini helped consolidate and centralize projects tracking and status reporting
  • Gemini helped improve defects tracking and reporting
  • Gemini helped streamline release process management, eliminated approval paperwork by allowing ot use comments as electronic signatures.

  • Although the initial operational cost is usually somewhat high, it is really worth considering in an environment with more than 10 employees working together.
  • In project costing (web development) it is quite acceptable and falls within the scope of the final product quote.
  • I don't have exact numbers or percentages (because I'm not in charge of that section) but I can say that it falls within a good to acceptable ROI range.
