Monday.com vs. Wingmate

What is Monday.com?

Since you’re researching CRMs, I’m sure by now you’ve seen a Monday.com ad. Monday.com is one of the biggest players in the CRM marketing space. Monday.com was the first CRM on a mission to be simple. Before companies like Wingmate and Monday.com, every CRM was an incredibly complex program that seriously took weeks to understand. The only organizations that used CRMs back then were typically large enterprises that could afford close to a million dollars on implementation and training their staff. Since then, these two CRMs that we’re talking about today were able to make CRMs available to any type of organization and from there, spread like wildfire.

Monday.com is built like a scheduling program with additional functionality to perform like a traditional CRM. Very easy and simple to use, the CRM is ready to go out of the box and can be used by any industry. However, when you design a product for a general audience, it’s very difficult to meet the needs of different users. A hairstylist salon has far different needs than a waste hauler or an HVAC service company. To be fair, I’m sure contact organization and tracking abilities are relevant to both, but it’s important to consider which aspects of your sales strategy are most important when it comes to choosing a CRM. Many users have experienced difficulty with its ceiling of capabilities compared to other more intuitive & powerful CRMs. There’s nothing more frustrating than building around a program and finding out you’re not able to complete a part of your process due to an application’s functionality ceiling.

Pricing Comparison:

Monday.com has a base price of $10/month, as well as a free version. Looking at the CRM market, Monday.com is definitely one of the most affordable CRMs. Some other more powerful CRMs can cost any company more than $50/month per user, where they could also resort to Monday.com’s free version. Although affordable and competitively priced, users must consider what they need out of their CRM, there’s no point taking a dollar-store fishing net when you’re going deep-sea fishing.

Wingmate on the other hand is priced slightly higher per user. But with that, comes more power and an intuitive platform. In terms of functionality, Wingmate has been able to take the ability and functionality of a larger CRM, but tie in the simplicity & user-friendliness of a smaller CRM like monday.com. Simply put, you get what you pay for. Check out what our customers have said about our CRMs capabilities here (customer stories page).
