monday work management pricing table
Pricing checked: Aug 10, 2026
Official factConfidence 98%1 linked source
The current US pricing page displays Free at USD 0 for up to two seats, Basic at USD 9, Standard at USD 12, and Pro at USD 19 per seat per month under the annual-billing selection. Paid plans start from three users. Enterprise requires a quote. The page also offers monthly payment, but the reviewed public extraction did not bind separate monthly amounts to the exact work management plans, so those amounts are not recorded.
Official pricing pagePricing cautions
- Paid plans start from three users: A team with fewer than three paid users may still be billed for the minimum paid-plan seat quantity.
- Automation and integration use is metered by monthly action limits: Standard has 250 actions for each category, Pro has 25,000, and Enterprise has 250,000; exhausted limits can pause workflows until reset or upgrade.
- Enterprise price and exact terms require a quote: The public page does not establish an Enterprise amount, billing state, minimum fee, or contract term.

Scoring method
How the score is calculated
The score uses the category-specific buying dimensions below and their displayed weights.
This page is based on public product information, official sources, structured feature data, and multi-model AI evaluation. It is not a hands-on lab test unless explicitly stated. Confidence percentages describe our research indicators, not the probability that a claim is true or a measured accuracy rate.

Why this confidence level
- Evidence confidence uses source level and claim-to-source support; AI claim confidence is shown separately.
- Required-field evidence status measures whether weighted required claims have evidence links; it does not mean every product behavior was independently verified.
- 8 of 8 weighted claims have evidence links.
- 0 A1 documentary official sources and 8 A2 official product sources are linked.
- 2 independent review sources are retained, including 2 professional sources with an explicit hands-on method.
- 4 weighted claims are past the review window.
- No blocking evidence conflict was identified.
Planning and work execution20%
83The product combines planning objects, schedule controls, workload, time tracking, and reporting, which supports both planning and execution in one system; the score is tempered by clear plan boundaries for the most advanced controls.
Collaboration and adoption15%
81Shared boards, guest access, documents, and permission options lower collaboration barriers across internal and external participants without requiring a separate workspace product.
Portfolio and program visibility15%
74Enterprise provides the portfolio solution for multi-project oversight, so program-level visibility is limited for buyers that remain on Free through Pro.
Resource, capacity, and schedule management15%
74Workload and time tracking help coordinate team capacity on Pro, whereas advanced resource directory, allocations, utilization, and capacity tools are Enterprise capabilities.
Automation and integrations13%
73Automations, integrations, and a workflow builder are included, but the action pools are limited by plan and can constrain high-volume workflow use, so the score reflects useful automation with metered boundaries.
Reporting, controls, and governance12%
78Dashboards, private boards, granular permissions, and custom roles support operational reporting and access control, with the broadest governance and portfolio reporting on Enterprise.
Usability, support, and total cost10%
74A permanent two-seat Free plan, USD 9–19 per seat per month priced annually on Basic through Pro, a 14-day Pro trial, three-seat paid minimums, metered actions, and quote-only Enterprise shape total cost and expansion planning.

Detailed strengths and purchase cautions
Why it is worth considering

- Timeline, Gantt, dependencies, milestones, baselines, and critical path support schedule-oriented execution when the required plan tier is selected.

- Dashboards, workload, time tracking, formulas, project budgets, and effort reporting give managers visible status and capacity signals on higher plans.
What to confirm before buying
- Paid plans start at three seats, so a two-person paid team still faces the three-seat minimum.
- Automation and integration actions are metered monthly, and exhausted pools can pause high-volume workflows until reset or plan change.
- Portfolio management and advanced resource directory, planner, utilization, and capacity tools sit on Enterprise, which is quote-based only.
- Critical path is described as a trial feature whose future packaging may change, so buyers should reconfirm packaging before relying on it long term.

GPTAI-assisted buyer perspective81
monday work management fits teams that want configurable project boards, views, dashboards, and repeatable workflows, with stronger planning and governance functions moving into Pro and Enterprise; buyers should check the seat minimums, action limits, and whether portfolio and advanced resource controls require Enterprise for their use case.
- Review confidence
- 81/100
Model details
- Strengths
- The product includes boards, items, columns, forms, documents, templates, and dashboards, which supports structured project setup and cross-team work tracking.
- The product includes timeline, Gantt, dependencies, milestones, baselines, and critical path, which supports schedule planning on the plans that provide those functions.
- The product includes automations, integrations, and a workflow builder, which can reduce manual coordination when the workflow volume stays within plan action pools.
- The product includes time tracking, formulas, workload, project budgets, and effort reporting, which supports execution management for teams that need both progress and effort visibility.
- Cautions
- Paid plans start from three users, so very small teams may still need to buy above their headcount.
- Automation and integration usage is metered by monthly action limits, so high-volume workflows need monitoring or a higher plan.
- Portfolio management and advanced resource controls are on Enterprise, so buyers needing those functions should not expect them on the lower plans.
- Enterprise pricing is quote-based, so buyers cannot validate public terms before engaging sales.

GeminiAI-assisted buyer perspective76
A configurable work management platform that scales from basic task tracking to multi-project scheduling, though teams must balance plan-gated capabilities like Gantt baselines and resource tracking against strict automation action limits.
