Overall Satisfaction with monday.com

Used it for both Commercialization, product readiness and short & long term road map planning. One of the biggest business problems that Monday.com addresses is engaging all stakeholders in the readiness of products. Monday.com helped organize weekly readiness calls, while keeping the project on track for launch and holding stakeholders accountable for assigned tasks.
  • Ease of use
  • project planning
  • product roadmap planning with multiple widgets to select from
  • Exporting of Gantt charts for PowerPoint Presentations
  • Easier integration needed with Microsoft Azure ADO
  • Date Completion versus Due Date versus Completion Status - The completion status was often wrong, even though the project was completed by the due date. Seems to have corrected itself over time. So maybe there was an issue (bug) that was fixed.
  • Ability to report out on overall strategic roadmap to the executive team
  • Allowed a benchmark approach to be easily managed with clear ability to identify when the project was at risk
  • Saves time when putting together PowerPoint presentations involving resources, benchmarks, tasks, etc.
I feel like I only used a small percentage of what Monday.com offers. Excited to see what else Monday.com can do for myself, my team and the company. From what I can tell, there are 200+ templates to use for a variety of areas: SWOT Analysis, 30-60-90 Planning, Jira Projects Progress, Marketing, Agile project management, risk management, and much more.
I did not ever need to use the customer success manager. There needs to be an NA for this question. The good thing is if I never needed a customer success manager, than I guess the Monday.com really is user friendly!!
Overall performance was excellent. I never ran into an issue of downtime using Monday.com. If there were going to scheduled down times for Monday.com, there would allows be a message beforehand warning users.

monday.com & Collaboration

We currently use it for our product readiness weekly calls. This allows all stakeholders a chance to see the status of the project, see what tasks are assigned to their team for completion and provides visibility for risks and successes.

I use the project management capabilities, especially to ensure we are hitting ALL benchmarks. I can easily see if a benchmark is at risk of not being reached. When that is identified, Monday.com makes it easy to apply updates.

Evaluating monday.com and Competitors

  • Price
  • Product Features
  • Product Usability
Product features and usability are the top two. I need people to be able to jump in and not have to worry about a complex system for tracking.
I would not change anything.
