I use monday.com to track project progress, update team members, and coordinate deliverables for various departments. It is also very useful for creating and distributing surveys to our various stakeholders, with instantaneous results as they come in. The features in the software are easy to use and intuitive, what you see is what you get! I would recommend it to any organisation, large or small.
Pros
Colour coding for project status
Live updates on project progress as they happen
Ability to share files and discuss online
Update Feed (inbox) is a new useful tool, all updates in one place.

I find the features and choices available in constructing our surveys particularly useful, they allow for multiple different formats for questions and answers with the ability to add logos, etc. to quickly allow the user to identify who the survey is from. They can choose to be anonymous when answering, and it really is such a useful tool for our community members to air their views.
I use monday.com to plan, track, and manage ongoing projects across different sectors. It helps our team organized and increase visibility of each different project we are working on. We used to use an excel spreadsheet to communicate and track projects' progress, but now with monday.com it is easier to track and share within our team.
Pros
Visually intuitive
Easy to share (by email)
project management specialized
Cons
automation
automation
automation (calendar function)

Project Management where you have multiple parties involved, and you want to constantly update the progress. There are so many visual ways to present the project tracking, but users also need to be educated and trained to use it. Overall, it is a helpful tool for us to use as a team.

monday.com is a fantastic interface for specific project management tasks. Its harder to us when one team is working on multiple projects at a time and managing that team together while working off separate boards can be cumbersome at times.

Currently, we use the monday.com app to centralize the demands of the marketing team, all tasks whether they are content, design, production are registered and monitored on the monday.com. We were having trouble visualizing how many demands there are on the agenda for the week and who is busiest. Now with the monday.com application it has become very practical and productive. monday.com's ability to customize was what caught our attention the most, so each manager can assign elements according to their needs and different situations.
Pros

Useful integrations that make your routine easier
Intuitive and customizable dashboards
Possibility to share the view of the board via URL

Improve dependency functionality, making it easier and automatic to populate

the ease of use of monday.com make it a useful application to use day to day and anyone can picku and use it day to day without any major training.
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.
Pros
Ease of use
project planning
product roadmap planning with multiple widgets to select from
Cons
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.
Likelihood to Recommend
I think it is great for many of the following areas: High level roadmaps, Commercialization, Product Readiness and Project Planning. It depends on what the needs are of a person, but any of the areas I mentioned would be a great reason to use Monday.com. There are so many more features that I did not use.
