monday CRM provides control over the entire sales funnel and helps users close deals faster by automating manual work and streamlining sales activities from A-Z.
One of the best things about FollowUp Power is that we can mark things for follow-up several months down the line, which we frequently have a need for since many of our clients are seasonal. For example, we'll get started working with them while they're here in Florida for the winter, then they'll head back north in the spring and not want to hear from us again until they return in the fall. With FollowUp Power, we can then mark them for follow up in the future rather than to have to somehow remember to contact them in the future.
Our Integrated/brand marketing and Lifecycle marketing teams find monday CRM to be particularly useful for project management. Integrated marketing uses monday to build out our yearly promotional calendar, which keeps the entire company informed on all the launch and sale details for the year, across both retail and digital channels. The Lifecycle marketing team uses monday CRM to track individual campaign projects, mainly consisting of email asset creation. There are times when monday is not the preferred CRM platform, such as data and analytics tracking, project performance tracking, or scenarios when immediate feedback is required.
We love the dashboard feature. This is where we spend the majority of our time. The dashboard helps us avoid missing bid dates and deadlines.
The system is very intuitive and a new user will be up to speed within one hour after they start using the system. There is only one place to enter all data. This allows for ease of use and minimizes data entry mistakes.
Every task is date stamped to insure proper work flow and holds the team accountable to each other.
It really needs to have the capability of listing numerous phone #s with a note beside each one ("his cell#", "her work#", "do not call before 9a.m.", etc.).
It really needs to have the capability of listing numerous e-mail addresses ("hers", "his", "her email address at work", etc.).
It would be nice to have a separate general information box where we could put comments in that would show every time we bring up the account (such as "her nickname is Bobbi", "their dogs name is Fido, "their son is currently stationed in France", "husband is going through chemotherapy", etc.), which would help us to remember personal details that are important to our clients.
It takes a while to get used to the UX if you are used to Hubspot or another CRM
We are still testing mass email functionality, it's a little less intuitive vs Hubspot
The quote/invoice forms are not pre-built into the CRM the way they are in Hubspot, so you have to manually set those up. Some might see that as a positive thing because it's more flexible with your respective tech stack, but it required more research on our end to make sure we set it up to flow efficiently.
It's a really easy to use and improve tool, that helps you to quickly master its functions and then helps you to improve the features usage as quickly as you learned the basis. Any doubts you have are easily solved by the contents and tutorials it provides, and if it doesn't solve it, the team is always quick to reply and help you.
When I have requested customer service from monday.com account the person who I spoke with was really helpful but the set up to get a hold of someone in customer service was a little complicated and time-consuming. I had to get a ticket in an email and then wait for a specific person to call me back at a certain time, that's why I gave a six.
My company had already implemented FollowUp Power CRM for Construction before I arrived. I have used other CRM programs in the past, and FollowUp Power is much more user friendly, and I have already seen a direct increase in my lead to customer conversion ratio as well as increased sales
Monday is significantly better. Not only is it more aesthetically pleasing it is just better overall. I feel as if Monday has a better system in regard to keeping track of all the files we have. Moreover, I also feel like the fact that it allows me to tag my other coworkers enables me to have better communication in the office.
I have seen a lot better tracking on my jobs when it comes to scheduling and staying on top of my jobs.
The dashboard is part of my daily routine it tells me exactly what I need to follow up on weather it is calling the customer or checking on the customer.
Payments or what the current status of the job is.
I feel since we integrated to monday CRM, that the speed of our invoicing rate has increased, due to the easier navigation monday CRM provides.
Communication with other peers & departments has become easier to reach out since we all share this platform and able to tag the needed person.
We are also able to view and give reports easier to our VP's/ higher up, providing visibility and graphs of our trending sales numbers categorized by each store with different sales type.
