monday.comPipeline CRM
Considered Both Products
monday.com
Chose monday.com
monday.com feels like it offers a lower barrier to entry as well as more versatility, extensibility without becoming too complex. Atlassian is geared more for larger companies requiring a greater degree of granular controls.

Both platforms have a number of integrations (though, …
Chose monday.com
I used Pipedrive in my previous roles, so I did not evaluate monday.com as an alternative to Pipedrive. Similarly, Salesforce is not positioned as an alternative to monday.com for us. We currently use both Salesforce and monday.com, as they serve different purposes and …
Chose monday.com
monday.com does more than just a single function like other tools.
Chose monday.com
Planner is very hard to figure out. Insightly is a good resource to keeping track of customers and their info but for tasks, monday.com is far superior
Chose monday.com
Workfront offered a more intuitive user interface, which made team adoption easier. It also included additional products that aligned well with the needs of our Dev, Work Management, and Service teams.
Chose monday.com
Atlassian Jira, Jira Service Management and Jira Work Management
Chose monday.com
I actually found clickup easier to use and they had better features for recurring tasks
Chose monday.com
Cost is a big factor as the alternatives stacked up poorly in user costs and built in features. Also, the business was already using a different facet of monday.com so it was a quick setup and we already had experience and people were Jo knew the platform. Less complex and also …
Chose monday.com
monday is more capable and comprehensive when it comes to project and task management as well as the CRM side. However, Odoo is better suited for managing other areas that monday doesn’t cover, such as employee management, payroll, and invoicing. If one were to prioritize cost …
Chose monday.com
Very similar feature-function-wise wise but the UI is the ultimate differentiator that makes adoption so much easier on monday.com.
Chose monday.com
We have not used anything like Monday.com before. We used to do all of what I described on Google Sheets and share them with the company. It was very time consuming and cumbersome to remake new sheets every year, Monday.com gives us the freedom to add on year by year and not …
Chose monday.com
monday.com is far superior to Microsoft Planner and Basecamp, and arguably superior to Trello and Slack Lists as well. Asana (for work management and Zendesk (for request management) put it to shame. My main monday-using client selected it primarily because of its slightly …
Chose monday.com
We have only ever tried one other software that was designed to work similarly to monday.com. I will not name the company but our experience with it was just short of harrowing. The company was friendly and supportive but the product they designed was not user friendly. It did …
Chose monday.com
monday.com is the sweet spot of rich feature set and simplicity
Chose monday.com
I think trello was nice so self-use, but not for a team
Chose monday.com
monday.com is so much better and cheaper. We moved from Zendesk because, in our experience, their customer service was terrible, they kept raising prices, and there was limited functionality relevant to our organization. The tools within monday.com allow us to use it as more …
Chose monday.com
It's been a while since trying Asana, so it's hard to say. I think they are very similar from what I remember, but maybe monday.com has more reporting and customization possibilities?
Chose monday.com
monday.com offer much of the standard tools and seems to be ever evolving. They seem to take feedback and constantly upgrade the tools. If all the tools are there, the differentiating factor might be the cost, any integrations you may need, and the visual "chemistry". To me, …
Chose monday.com
We chose to move from Zoho to monday.com when our company started growing exponentially. Overall, our team was thankful for the change because we were growing at far to fast of a speed for Zoho's tools to keep up with us. monday.com is a better, beefier platform with far better …
Chose monday.com
We decided to go with monday.com because they offered a free tier for nonprofits and because they are easier to use and offered additional features that we could not find on the other choices. Hands down, there was no better choice for us than monday.com.
Chose monday.com
When I arrived at my org, I was initially disappointed to hear that we used something other than Asana for project management. Fast forward just a few months, and I became a complete monday.com convert. While its organization is similar to Asana's, it's user interface, …
Chose monday.com
We use Jira, Confluence, Miro and the full Salesforce stack and it's very reliable as are the other softwares.
Pipeline CRM
Chose Pipeline CRM
We are currently using HubSpot for one of our other companies and it has been great. The marketing integrations that come with it blow PipelineDeals out of the water. On top of that, it also has a ticketing system in it where you can tie customer issues to a customer in the CRM.
Chose Pipeline CRM
The cost is much better and it is much easier to use. Salesforce was way too robust and I never want to hire a consultant to set up a CRM. PipelineDeals CRM has the best visibility of our sales efforts.
Chose Pipeline CRM
We originally used Highrise HQ and it was great for a while. Unfortunately, the simplicity and lack of reporting sent us looking for a new alternative solution. When we came across Pipelinedeals.com, it seemed to fit our needs perfectly. We signed up for a trial and began using …
Chose Pipeline CRM
SFDC was just too expensive and "too much." Insightly was not comprehensive enough, and we found an awful lot of bugs (this was a year ago+). QuickBase is actually excellent, but it requires an advanced technical person to manage and use, such as a QB Developer, and we wanted a …
Chose Pipeline CRM
PipelineDeals is cleaner looking than Salesforce or Cbiz and offers comparable customization. But PipelineDeals will also now be able to integrate with MailChimp, which is very good for our purposes, and while we can't get all the customization we'd like out of it, we've been …

The platform is very well suited for our nonprofit programs that serve low-income clients who need diapers, wipes, and period products. It has helped us run our programs, capturing information and allowing us to view the data for reporting purposes. The ability to filter data is very helpful by allowing us to categorize information to get a better picture of the progress of our programs.

It is great for managing multiple sales people and the ability to see where the company is in sales cycles. Great for our forecasting. The ability to track email opens has helped us with next steps as well.

Pros
  • I like summary of subitems, especially with subitasks as subitems and add item tracking for each subtask it can show total tracked in parent item. Similar with other columns, like numbers, status, date.
  • Dashboard features, Many kinds of dashboard view available, we can utilize on the basis of requirements.
  • monday.com workform is very powerful, easily share form link when submitted it will create line item in board with provided data.
  • monday.com automation is very helpful in order to automate steps with specific rules and easy setup.
  • monday.com also provides integrations in order to automate processes if need to integrate multiple app together. or need to transfer data between multiple apps.

  • Flexibility: It provides the flexibility to set it up how you want to use it. Customization is beyond what you probably want or need.
  • Reporting: We were able to setup all types of reporting and tracking.
  • Ease of Use: While the platform was powerful, it was always easy to use.

Cons
  • The desktop app for Mac seems to have a few issues with visual glitches appearing on screen, it only seems to go away when I close the tool and reopen it
  • Subtasks don't show on the individual users to-do list, only main level tasks
Read full review
  • I wouldn't say no areas for improvement exist, but I will say that PipelineDeals takes customer input, shared product roadmap, and supports what they have very nicely. What they provide works out-of-the-box. Improvements can always be made with respect to pre-packaged integration with 3rd party services/solutions, and with extended attributes, but you also want to avoid something that attempts to boil the ocean.

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.

If we can integrate and easily export and clean all of our data such that it can be used for multiple purposes, i.e. outreach to guests, sending out newsletters to subscribers, doing research and tracking progress, we will definitely renew

Usability
It's really about ease of use. I use Click-Up as well, which I really enjoy, but monday.com is a lot less complex to use. Its structure is a bit easier to understand and I got accustomed to the functionality very quickly. I have not explored enough of its functionality to comment any further but it's a really great tool for tracking progress and for capturing absolutely everything I need to save, including ideas, brain-dump, insights, continuous improvement on tasks and processes. I am lucky to be able to use monday.com as a member of my client's team.

The user interface is simple and easy to navigate. Anyone who is overwhelmed with some of the more complicated CRM systems will definitely enjoy the simplicity of what PipelineDeals has to offer

Performance
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?")

Support Rating
monday.com only really care about accounts that have 20 seats or more. While this is great for monday.com, it pushes smaller organisations to evaluate alternatives. We rate monday.com highly in our organisation because key staff have already got good experience with the application and we know we will get to 20+ seats one day. But, till then the billing model and lack of permanent enterprise features is a dread.

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.

Alternatives Considered
monday.com feels like it offers a lower barrier to entry as well as more versatility, extensibility without becoming too complex. Atlassian is geared more for larger companies requiring a greater degree of granular controls. Both platforms have a number of integrations (though, Atlassian may have "more" because of it's marketplace and longer tenure), but monday.com may be easier to configure, though with potentially more limited functionality. monday.com definitely lends itself well to getting a business off the ground with simpler automations and the ability to grow you to the point of "graduating" to a more specialized tools.

Scalability
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.

Return on Investment
  • By using monday.com as an enablement tool for templated onboarding plans, we have been able to begin calculating the number of manager hours saved through our work (not defined yet).
  • monday.com's reporting tools also allow us to more easily report on the productivity and output of our team since we keep up with all projects and subitems in monday.com.
