Monday.com
I’m exploring various scheduling tools for employees
The current system is on Google Spreadsheets, and we need much more control and workflows to stop errors
However we would love to keep the flexibility of a spreadsheet system
And not have the cost of a specific scheduling SaaS product which is in the realm of £40k per year for 600 employees.
What is Monday.com?
Is it a spreadsheet with automation and workflow?
- There is good undo (Trash)
- Keyboard shortcuts looks good
- Multi select looks good
