Why monday.com Might Not Be for You
Updates Should Help, Not Hurt
monday.com’s inconsistent user experience and disruptive updates makes work harder. Sudden changes break things without warning, leaving teams scrambling to adapt.
Rather than supporting your workflow, monday.com forces users to adjust to the platform, wasting time and creating frustration.
"Monday can bring in new features that sometimes aren't helpful to us, and then we have to change the structure of a lot of things, to fit with new updates."
— Fiona D, May 2025
"Whenever Monday updates, it breaks my automations; however, I receive no warning or notification of this. I only find out when an automation that was supposed to fire fails to do so."
— Verified User in Higher Education, May 2025
