Easy to assign projects to the staff with an easy followup of the progress. The customer service is incredibly supportive and very responsive to us.
This was a pain and eventually I stopped attempting to work around the lack of features I needed.
Super happy with the (relative) ease of use and love the templates etc. Easy to transition from e.g. Excel to Monday.
I don't like the "info boxes" feature because I feel it's limited. Textareas are tight and there is very limited text formatting, and the fact all boxes are collapsed by default.
A great software that enables us to be happy individuals in business life. Easy to use, flexible and functional, a product with excellent service.
Some of the metrics or field that i need to be on the report is missing and no possible way to include it to the report as the customization of the report is not flexible enough.
I pretty much like this platform because this platform could really help me organize our projects. It is really easy for me to track the progress of every project I am working on.
The layout is confusing and hard to follow the chain of events in each task.
MindNode makes mind mapping fun and easy, allowing me to quickly and easily create visually appealing diagrams that help me to organize my thoughts and ideas.
I'm not currently working but have become terribly reliant on the software at this point as mentioned in the pros above. Other than that, I can't think of anything.
For those of us who are creative but like to/need to have our creativity focused on a topic, it’s very helpful. You can add and delete with ease, change colors, etc. I strongly recommend this.
The iCloud sync sometimes leaves me high and dry when in flight mode. I thought that the file was downloaded but then realize it's still up in the cloud, when I'm up in the air and no way to sync.
Good interface, nice colours and themes, and a simple UX make for a pleasant experience.
After finishing a mind map, printing in a readable format is difficult. Especially if it is a larger mind map.
Mindnode is easy to use and syncs flawlessly across devices. It is beautiful to look at an easy to navigate.
Perhaps allowing me some customizations but those are very specific to what I do so it should be no concern to most.
Amber: My name is Amber. I'm an IT project manager for a healthcare company. The company size is about 5,000. Also, the product for Monday, I would rate it a five. So I was using Asana prior to monday.com and the reason why that wasn't really working, lack of features. So that product didn't allow a lot of implementations as monday.com allows. Meaning when I'm working with a team, I'm able to just go ahead and put in all of their resources. So the resource management was really great. If there were any files, like large files, it was easier to share out with the team using monday.com so everyone could have access to it. Asana, unfortunately, it just allowed me to track task, but working with a larger sized team and a bigger company, monday.com was perfect for that. I chose monday.com basically for my team and my team's size. So I was able to allow my team to get acquainted with the monday.com product. A lot of them were used to using Asana. A lot of them were used to me tagging them in their task, but I showed them that that tool for monday.com allowed me to go a deeper depth with them and dive into really what their assigned tasks were individually for the team. So they were able to keep track of that. Also, I was managing about four plus projects at the same time, so it was a lot easier for me to go ahead and create different tasks per project for team members. So I worked with the digital team, I worked with creative, I worked with the real estate team. So all of that was just easier to keep separate and just allow those teams to really go in and own their task and own their individual projects that they were doing. When getting set up with monday.com, it really didn't take very long because as a project manager, I am trained to use a lot of different resources and tools. I liked the layout of it a lot better, again, than a lot of the other project management tools that I've used in the past, like Asana and Jira. monday.com just had a very simple design and layout, so it was very easy for me to go ahead if I needed to add anything into projects. Like again, the file sizes were very large for our teams, because they were very large projects. So getting set up took about, I'd say a couple of weeks, but first off the first week was training the team members on using that tool. So they were really happy with the training that we provided for them for that week-long training. Then the second week was just going ahead and doing the trial run with the team to see how again, the team liked the product. They did find it a lot easier to work with again, because when you're managing four different projects and there's about 12 people per team, they like the simplicity of being able to own their task and be able to go in and make their own edits and share their files, sizes, however large, throughout the team. So it took about a couple of weeks, but the team definitely was appreciative of me implementing that tool. So the advice I would give to anyone interested in trying out monday.com, first off the pricing, depends again on what you're looking for. The product is great, so I recommend doing the trial run with your team. I know a lot of people from different companies might have smaller companies, and they're used to using that product like Asana. Our company was much smaller and we really didn't have the funds to try to venture out and try a bunch of different products, but monday.com was recommended to us, so we decided to give that a trial run. Based on the pricing, we were able to afford it. So if you're interested in using that product, do your research, find out what you're looking for specifically. You might not need as many resources as a larger company does, but it is nice to have that benefit for your team members so that they're able to just complete their task on time, keeping track of their own individual projects. They can own that. So yes, just definitely go ahead and do your research. It depends on what company, again, you are. I was healthcare, so for us, our healthcare team was a much larger size, and that product just fit with our team.
Francois L.: I am Francois. I'm the president of Aliter Concept. We're a small company dealing with human resources needs, conferences, workshops, and trainings, and my rating for MindNode is five. I've been using MindNode for almost a decade now. I can't remember the other names I've tried. But you name it, you've got it. Any kind of software that deals with mind maps, I've tried it. I've tried several before choosing MindNode, and I just can't remember the names. But they were numerous. I used to do mind maps manually, and I always felt constricted by the size of the sheet. With MindNode, there is no size. It's forever. It's infinite. That's one reason. The other reason is I'm not that good drawing stuff, and with MindNode, we can write stuff but organize it in such a way that it's literally a mind map the way that these professional mind mappers do it with drawings. But I don't like drawings. We can use drawings with MindNode. I don't. So I like it. I can move things around. I can start with something very, very simple, and it explodes with something really complex. We use it for projects. We use it for planning. We use it for course design. It's awesome. It's awesome. One of the things about mind map is it's supposed to be easy. And one of the things that I hated with most software is it was not that easy. With MindNode, it's a cinch. You basically write thing, you click enter or tab, and it does it. You can reorganize it very, very easily. In fact, it's so easy that I talk about my MindNode to all my clients. I even show them how I design my stuff using MindNode. And I tell them, "Try it. It is so easy. No explanation necessary. You just open it, type, enter. That's it. It does it by itself. It's really super." Whenever somebody tells me that mind map seems daunting, I tell them, "Use MindNode." Whenever somebody tells me Excel spreadsheets are too complicated and they're not so intuitive, I tell them, "Use MindNode. Whenever somebody tells me they have to design a new PowerPoint presentation and they feel limited by the PowerPoint templates, I tell them, "Use MindNode." Whenever. So, use MindNode. As soon as you need to think, you open a MindNode document. You start writing stuff. It just pops out of your mind. So, it's a very, very, very strong recommendation. Use MindNode. It's easy to use. It's awesome. It's so useful, and anybody can use it, and you can share your documents. This is really an extraordinary product.
