> Board-based work management with automations and dashboards

monday.com is a work platform built around boards of items and columns that teams shape to fit their own processes. Its work management product adds dashboards, automations, integrations, docs and forms, and the company sells separate CRM, dev and service products on the same platform. Paid plans are priced per seat with a three-seat minimum, and AI features draw on a monthly credit allowance.

## Key features

- **Boards and views:** Work is tracked on boards made of items and typed columns. Timeline, Gantt and calendar views start on the Standard plan.
- **Automations and integrations:** Both are metered by monthly actions: 250 each on Standard and 25,000 each on Pro. The integrations page lists 850+ integrations and apps.
- **Dashboards:** Dashboards bring data from boards together into charts and summaries for reporting on progress.
- **Docs and forms:** Built-in documents and forms sit next to boards. The Free plan allows up to 3 docs, and private boards and docs need Pro.
- **AI credits and agents:** The Sidekick assistant, AI agents and a notetaker draw on a monthly credit pool: 1,000 credits on Basic, 2,000 on Standard and 3,000 on Pro.
- **Portfolio and resource management:** The Enterprise plan adds portfolio management, resource management and multi-level permissions.

## Good for

- Teams that want boards, dashboards and automations in one tool
- Companies that also want CRM, dev or service products from one vendor
- Eligible nonprofits, which get their first 10 seats free

## Worth knowing

- The Free plan is limited to 2 seats, 3 boards and 3 docs.
- Paid plans start at 3 seats, and the price is set by the team size selected rather than by individual seats.
- Timeline, Gantt and calendar views, automations and integrations start on Standard; time tracking and private boards need Pro.
- Plan totals itemize the bundled AI credits at $10 per 1,000 a month, currently cancelled out by a "special offer" discount of the same amount.
