Overall Satisfaction with monday.com

We use monday.com in a variety of ways here.
1. First and foremost, we give all team members and departments training on monday.com so that they can use it to optimize their day-to-day or build workflows to fit their use cases.
2. We use monday.com to track company OKRs. We have company level boards (high level), then department level boards (low level). Our system works well, but functionality could be better. I believe there are items in the roadmap that will help.
3. Initiative tracking - general company initiatives
4. Ops workflows - we have a sync with Salesforce where opportunities get pulled in from SF with relevant metadata. Once in monday.com, our Ops team is able to delegate and track work that must be done for each opp.
5. Product management - we use monday.com to track our internal Product development efforts, everything from roadmapping to sprint tracking, bug tracking, etc.
  • 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
  • Recipes could use some work - would be cool to have better recipes for sub-items (related to my next point)
  • High to low level boards and linking (ultimately need better rollups)
  • Linked views of databases would be amazing... similar to the table views, but not
  • Faster UI for larger databases ( I know this is being overhauled - awesome!)
  • Would be great to be able to display last comment in a table column, or being able to drop in a comment in a table column and that populate in the comments
  • Ability to hide table views and reorder table views - PLEASE :)
  • This is really hard to quantify... Time savings for our Ops team - countless
  • ROI - medium, but could be higher with some relatively low level of effort updates requested in the forums
Really easy to get started, but not quite as easy when you get into the really advanced stuff. We often run into roadblocks when trying to build out workflows that come to a grinding halt because there is no viable solution or we have to settle for plan B.
Our CSM, Jonathan is AMAZING! He was only introduced to us a few months ago, and we've has fairly limited interactions so far, but he's an absolute legend! He seeks to understand our problems, workflows, etc. and carefully considers a positive outcome for us within the system's capabilities. He's a wealth of knowledge and we're really lucky to have him.
Positive in terms of reliability. I can only recall a few instances of downtime in the past year, which ultimately left us in a scramble, but only for a few hours.

Do you think monday.com delivers good value for the price?

No

Are you happy with monday.com's feature set?

Yes

Did monday.com live up to sales and marketing promises?

Yes

Did implementation of monday.com go as expected?

Yes

Would you buy monday.com again?

Yes

I really love monday.com, but there are some areas that are lacking and have been massively sought out by the monday.com community that are easy wins but still under consideration by the product team...

Well suited - for teams that need a quick and easy solution.

Not well suited - advanced users that need to crush and build out complex workflows that work without being super hacky.
