monday dev vs. Roadmunk

If you do web programming, code integration with your remote team, and/or software development that requires real-time monitoring of development progress, monday dev is an excellent tool for this. Like its base platform, Monday.com, monday dev is developed and attempts to integrate into a very "new era" organizational system of digital whiteboards, only now focused more on productivity and helping developers to be comfortable in remote work.

Roadmunk allows us to configure and share customized views of our roadmaps. As a platform, it has demonstrated progress in its scalability and performance, which has accommodated the growth our team has seen over the last two-plus years. Particular strengths include configurability and customization, along with options for views, exports, and sharing with internal and external audiences.

• Collaboration – Roadmunk makes it very easy to work and edit within a team structure.
• User Experience – The usability of the product made it quite easy for the entirety of the team to hit the ground running (i.e. very little training was required).
• Rollups – Each product line and therefore each product owner could easily focus on their particular roadmap without having to sort through the master roadmap making it highly efficient, while at the same time making it quite easy to pull all updates into one high-level document.

Incentivized

• More customization in automated tasks
• Ability to send visual snapshots of reports and dashboards
• Integrated reports from dashboards in dev and work management

• The fact that you have to add a date to everything; dates stick to people’s minds.
• Connecting bars to milestones; unclear which to use when.
• Collaboration isn’t great; can’t track changes, add comments, etc.

We are very likely to renew, because it has been really useful

While monday dev is an excellent ally to organize and work in harmony with your team, there are still certain important aspects that need to be improved. They are minor, but if corrected, they will help improve the user experience when using it.

Performance has improved meaningfully over the last 12 months or so, especially in our views that contain many roadmap items. Some challenges remain, however, particularly when changing the timeline and in scenarios of multiple users interacting with the roadmap simultaneously.

Our experience with Monday dev support has been good

The Roadmunk team has been great to work with...whether proactive communications about new features or the occasional outage, or when we reach out to them with feature requests, assistance/support, or even license management and renewals - they are top notch.

Monday is better than Jobber, as it gives you a place to see where all the jobs are and what the current status is. Everyone in the company can go to and see that view. It's not dependent on the status of the employee. Excel is much more technical and requires much more work to set up.

Roadmunk has an actual product management workflow design built into it vs trying to use eg generic e-post-it software like Trello. Trello is better at free-forming prioritization, which is actually much better than (again) the awkward item navigation in Roadmunk, but the other Roadmunk advantages post-prioritization win out in the end.

Incentivized

• We can more easily grab the KPIs for our quarterly reviews.
• There are no automatic charts or reports I can pull for the quarter. Everything is manually gathered.
• Doesn't give us job costing.

Incentivized

• Roadmunk has reduced the number of meetings that product needs to attend with customers by 20-25%
• Roadmunk has eliminated a whole set of churn in our workstream management tool (JIRA) by abstracting the planning step away from the steps where we monitor work progress
