Who can use Work­sec­tion and Monday?

Work­sec­tion ​

Work­sec­tion is for

• Small teams of 10 to 100 peo­ple who want to start work­ing sys­tem­at­i­cal­ly. By divid­ing work areas into projects and tasks with­in projects, Work­sec­tion pro­vides a clear struc­ture. It helps teams orga­nize their work­flows, mak­ing them trans­par­ent and efficient.
• Ser­vice teams that need a time track­ing and account­abil­i­ty sys­tem. Accu­rate time and resource track­ing dur­ing tasks is impor­tant for deter­min­ing project prof­itabil­i­ty with the built-in time track­er and account­abil­i­ty system.
• Non-tech­ni­cal or blend­ed teams. The inter­face of Work­sec­tion is designed in such a way that even spe­cial­ists with no expe­ri­ence in project man­age­ment can quick­ly adapt to the sys­tem and start work­ing with it. This makes the plat­form con­ve­nient for non-tech­ni­cal and mixed teams with spe­cial­ists from dif­fer­ent fields. 

You should con­sid­er alter­na­tives if

• You are a tech­ni­cal team look­ing for a ser­vice that sup­ports prod­uct life­cy­cle man­age­ment tools. Work­sec­tion does not have suf­fi­cient tools for these needs. 
• You need exten­sive cus­tomiza­tion and tem­plate work. In this case, Work­sec­tion may not pro­vide the flex­i­bil­i­ty and cus­tomiza­tion you require.

Mon­day

Mon­day is for

• Teams of 100+ peo­ple look­ing for busi­ness process automa­tion solu­tions. The plat­form offers a com­pre­hen­sive set of automa­tion capa­bil­i­ties that will sim­pli­fy rou­tine tasks and allow you to focus on the more impor­tant aspects of your work.
• Tech­ni­cal teams that need agile sup­port to coor­di­nate the stages of prod­uct devel­op­ment. Mon­day pro­vides all the nec­es­sary tools to sup­port the agile method­ol­o­gy, such as sprints, bug track­ing, back­log, and roadmaps. 
• Sales teams that want to cus­tomize their cus­tomer expe­ri­ence with built-in CRM. An inte­grat­ed CRM helps sales teams orga­nize cus­tomer ser­vice, record con­ver­sa­tions, man­age leads, and improve the sales cycle. 

It is worth con­sid­er­ing alter­na­tives if

• You have a lim­it­ed bud­get for sys­tem imple­men­ta­tion. Mon­day may be too expen­sive for a small team or a start-up company.

1. Track real time spent on tasks. In Work­sec­tion, every task is tracked in real time with a built-in time track­er. This allows you to see how much time is actu­al­ly being spent on each task in real time. 
2. Man­age team work­load. Thanks to the account­abil­i­ty sys­tem, Work­sec­tion allows project man­agers to see how the work­load is dis­trib­uted among team mem­bers. Iden­ti­fy which team mem­bers are over­worked and reas­sign some tasks to oth­ers to pre­vent burnout.
3. Eval­u­ate the prof­itabil­i­ty of projects. Work­sec­tion allows man­agers to eval­u­ate the finan­cial per­for­mance of each project using a timer and cost and time analy­sis reports. This helps them to make informed deci­sions about whether to adjust the price or to opti­mize the inter­nal processes.

Work­sec­tion reports and time tracker

• Timer. The timer makes track­ing easy and accu­rate by auto­mat­i­cal­ly record­ing hours. This allows you to com­pare planned and actu­al per­for­mance and bet­ter plan resources and time. 
• Reports. You can ana­lyze all the data you need in real time with Work­sec­tion’s detailed reports. The reports show how much time and resources were spent on each project. They also show which tasks are tak­ing the most time and which projects are not pro­duc­ing the expect­ed prof­it. You can quick­ly under­stand which projects are in need of adjust­ment and take time­ly action to increase their profitability.

• Account­abil­i­ty Sys­tem. Work­sec­tion allows you to share reports with your clients to pro­vide them with com­plete infor­ma­tion on the progress of the project. To share only rel­e­vant met­rics with your client, you can cus­tomize the report view with fil­ters. Reports can be export­ed to CSV or XLS formats.
• Inte­grat­ed com­mu­ni­ca­tion tools. Work­sec­tion pro­vides the abil­i­ty to cre­ate sep­a­rate teams for clients and add them to projects. This allows clients to see the progress of work. With the help of the men­tion fea­ture, you can eas­i­ly involve your clients in the approval process direct­ly in the project. All dis­cus­sions and doc­u­ments are stored in one place. This makes it easy to access the infor­ma­tion you need.

Com­mu­ni­ca­tion in Worksection

• Ensure con­fi­den­tial­i­ty. Work­sec­tion pro­vides the abil­i­ty to hide indi­vid­ual tasks or con­tact infor­ma­tion from the client. This allows clients to access only the infor­ma­tion that is rel­e­vant to them, while main­tain­ing the con­fi­den­tial­i­ty of inter­nal processes. 

Work­sec­tion task structure

• Sta­tus­es reflect the stages of com­plet­ing a task, mak­ing it easy to track progress and respond to delays or poten­tial prob­lems in a time­ly manner.
• Labels allow you to cat­e­go­rize tasks accord­ing to a vari­ety of cri­te­ria, which makes it eas­i­er to orga­nize tasks and to find a spe­cif­ic task.
