What is Monday.com?

Monday.com is a cloud-based Work Operating System (Work OS) that enables teams to build custom workflows, manage projects, and centralize work across departments. Founded in 2012 in Tel Aviv by Roy Mann and Eran Zinman, Monday.com went public on NASDAQ in 2021 and now serves over 225,000 organizations worldwide, including Coca-Cola, Universal Music Group, and Canva. The platform's fundamental building block is the "board" - a highly customizable spreadsheet-like interface where rows represent items (tasks, projects, leads, anything) and columns represent data fields. Monday.com offers 30+ column types including status, timeline, people, numbers, formulas, files, dependencies, time tracking, and location. This flexibility means teams can build everything from simple task lists to complex project portfolios, CRM systems, product roadmaps, and HR workflows without writing code. Views transform the same underlying data into different visualizations: Kanban boards for agile workflows, Gantt charts for timeline planning, Calendar views for deadline management, Map views for location-based data, Workload views for resource allocation, and Chart views for reporting. Dashboards aggregate data across multiple boards into executive-level overviews with widgets for numbers, charts, timelines, and embedded content. Automation is a core differentiator. Monday.com's no-code automation builder uses an "if-then" recipe structure: "When status changes to Done, notify someone and move item to group." Over 200 pre-built automation templates cover common scenarios, and custom automations can combine multiple triggers, conditions, and actions. Integrations extend automation to external tools - automatically creating Jira tickets, sending Slack messages, updating Salesforce records, or triggering webhook calls based on board changes. Monday.com has expanded beyond core project management with specialized products. Monday CRM provides sales pipeline management, contact tracking, email integration, and sales forecasting. Monday Dev offers sprint planning, bug tracking, and roadmap management for software teams. Monday Marketer supports campaign management, content calendars, and creative asset workflows. Each product is built on the same Work OS foundation, ensuring consistency and cross-product data flow. Pricing starts at $9/seat/month for the Basic plan (billed annually), with Standard ($12/seat), Pro ($19/seat), and Enterprise (custom pricing) tiers adding automations, integrations, time tracking, formula columns, and advanced permissions. A minimum of 3 seats is required, which can make Monday.com expensive for very small teams or individual users.
