I prefer Jira over every alternative I've tried (...Monday.com).

These tools shine with structured data rich field types. The core assumption that unlocks their power is that every row of data in a given tab has the exact same schema. While powerful, this assumption also creates rigidity.

That's £1.5k per employee, so if it's an annual contract they didn't pay, that's $150 user month? Seems _wild_ expensive. If that's accurate, no wonder Monday.com is able to spend so much on paid ads.

A 500-person company generated a ~$500K+, unpaid bill on Monday.com, which implies a cost of about $1,000 per person.

random product and services related to my overall browsing history, eg. Amazon Etsy Ebay etc or B2B services like Monday.com.
Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Appearing as a targeted B2B service ad based on the user's browsing history.
I've done several such integrations already (...Monday.com...).

I think the big problem with stuff like... Monday.com etc. is that the boss knows about it. Even if it does help, you're no better off as an employee because that's just the new baseline.

What if you could use your existing web-based tools like Notion, Basecamp or Monday.com to manage your files properly. Not just upload them as attachments.

With Monday.com or other startups... the typical assumption is that they are doing their best to stay in business and deliver and improve that tool. It's all they have. So your incentives are credibly aligned.
Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Implied as a business tool to depend on, contrasted with Google's non-core products.
A good comparison against your front page would be against monday.com or Asana who start with use-cases and practical application.
Hacker News • HackerNews • Use case: Used as a positive example of clear product positioning and use-case presentation for business users.
I find this a lot more intuitive than something... made for a large business like monday.com.

In my experience it’s better to keep KPI publishing separate from task tracking, though.

I’ve seen a lot of companies using Monday.com for non-tech projects and the endless flexibility generality of the tool leads them to just waste a ton of money and time.

There are literally hundreds of webapps helping w project management - Monday.com being one of them. Not everything you build have to compete.

plus a bunch of heavy web apps (think: ... monday.com)

these tools could never be adopted despite the org size growing to 1000+ people in my larger team. It was a big pain point.

Bitly and Rebrandly have customers... like... Monday.com

The article is really about (2) - and yes, those are vulnerable to vibe-coding. If your product's core value is we connect X to Y and show you a dashboard, that's now a weekend project.

It beats dribbling out licenses piecemeal and living without core functionalities (looking at you monday.com) to stay within the lowest payment tier where I can see that 10 minutes-employee-time per month.

It's secondary function is to properly fix and place tasks that you might sync from 3rd party apps like monday or clickup.
