Lytho Workflow vs. monday.com

It's a flexible program that can be molded to fit most businesses. It's geared towards agencies but we've been able to use it successfully as an in-house solution. It's pretty intuitive for the most part and is easy for new hires or clients to get up and running pretty quickly.

10 all the way. In around 95% of my client engagements in the last 3 years, I have insisted they use monday.com. I think that's around 15 clients during that time period. On every single occasion, the biggest single selling point is the dashboard view and ability to manage complex programmes via a simple, easy-on-the-eye interface. Every Board member I show it to buys it. Where most clients previously had reams of PowerPoint, Gannt charts, Kanban board, etc., they now have a single intuitive interface. It simplifies the process so much and permits the executive to focus on what is really important, as opposed to managing heaps of (largely immaterial) reporting.

• Project requests - can be tailored to fit your exact needs
• Project management - can assign tasks, track time, etc.
• Proofing - robust proofing environment that's easy for clients to learn

Incentivized

• Relatively easy to share boards with external users for collaboration
• monday.com <> Salesforce integration is solid - one of the main reasons we purchased the product, but there have been issues with API overages which shouldn't be happening
• Ease of use - easy to get in and start building

Incentivized

• Some areas are rather clunky and repetitive when it comes to project management, like editing a template once applied.
• Once a review is live, it's very difficult to edit the reviewers unless a current tier is active.
• Pretty expensive compared to the competition.

Incentivized

• Having the ability to export all projects/tasks in a CSV format while using a filter (i.e. date filtering, whom tasks are assigned to, etc.) would help a lot during audits.
• For developers, it would be extremely useful to track code changes on feature requests, such as integration with GitHub.
• The ability to add task dependencies would be invaluable. This would allows team members to be alerted when a project has landed on their plate after those before them have completed necessary tasks.

Teams involved in content creation, such as marketing or editorial teams, could use monday.com to manage the entire content lifecycle. Boards might track content ideas, assignments, drafts, reviews, approvals, and publication schedules, helping teams collaborate and keep content production on track.

monday.com usability is amazing. For so long, my company has been utilizing excel for every aspect of our work, from building the workflows themselves, to project management and actual actions. monday.com not only combined hundred of our excel sheets into 4 boards, it also came with the training teaching us to do so, AND helped every facet of my company be centralized into one software. This has made managing multiple teams and projects easier than I even thought possible.

There have only been 2 instances in the past year where monday.com was down.

Everything performs fairly well. Every now and then there are user errors where an employee will not click "ok" on a note they've created and simply exit out (I do wish that something was in place to prevent this, such as a pop "are you finished?")

monday.com's commitment to 24/7 customer support and dedicated Customer Success Managers suggests a strong emphasis on user assistance. Fast response times and personalized guidance are significant positives. However, occasional variations in response quality and the scope of assistance could marginally impact the perfect rating. Generally, monday.com demonstrates robust support, warranting a rating of 9 for its customer-centric approach.

To have someone walk you thru the features and capabilities of Monday.com is priceless. Someone also coming along later in the contract to see if you are maximizing the program to suit your company needs is beyond helpful. The staff that have provided this training are fun, creative and very patient.

We signed up for the accounts. Created the accounts. Ran the trial version and tested it live while we were running multiple projects and found that it was fitting our needs perfectly. When the trial ended and we were asked to purchase the full version, we did. We have found other ways to use it and it's a breeze.

By consolidating the requests, project management, and proofing without features we didn't need like invoicing it was an easy fit for us. We were able to quickly develop a comprehensive workflow and the gains to efficiency were immediate. Pricing was competitive (at least at the time) and the implementation was very good as well.

Incentivized

We used an excel spreadsheet to track our month end close process previously which created a lot of issues around only one person being able to be in the checklist at any given time. Additionally, we were unable to have excel notify us when a task we need to have completed was done, but Monday.com has completely changed that for us!

For it to work across multiple departments and sites, I would like to see improvements made with integrations and automation. For this question, I am acknowledging not only the addition of internal triggers/automation, but also an expansion on external ones.

Incentivized

• Consolidation of project requests has been extremely helpful.
• The improvement of campus-wide communication is hard to put a price on.
• Our team knows what is due and when at all times. We're saving a lot of time previously spent in meetings.

Incentivized

• I think Monday.com has improved by project tracking by 50% - it makes it easier to track what's happening, who's working on something, when it is due or expected to be done, and what files we need to keep track of.
