Monday CRM Key Features

Monitoring of sales operations

Beyond managing pre-sales and post-sales tasks and projects, Monday Sales CRM can also monitor the entire operations of the sales or marketing team. This unique feature allows managers, human resources, VPs or owners to get an overview of the sales team's reps and accomplishments and even staff planning (Figure A). With this, users can plan our entire sales recruiting processes and ensure all reps receive the tools or resources they need to close deals.

Data organization

To get started with Monday Sales CRM, businesses can connect all their new and existing data in one place. Users can import their existing leads, contacts, and accounts from Excel or an API directly into a Monday Board (Figure B). This feature also uses AI to merge duplicate data by notifying users when duplicate profiles or accounts are entered. This eliminates overlap and cleans up organizations' data.

Accessible mobile application

Monday provides a mobile app for your CRM users to access and manage contacts from anywhere and send sales emails on the go (Figure C). In addition to viewing leads and their basic contact information within the app, users can log sales calls through the automatic summary screen. Users can also track activity from anywhere, ensuring everyone is informed with instant access to previous emails, meetings, and offers.

Workflow automations

Workflow automations are pre-established, trigger-based tasks that are completed by CRM technology instead of a human. Users of Monday CRM automations can use a template or create their own to reduce time spent on repetitive tasks. For example, this feature can route and assign leads based on territories or send notifications after leads take actions with high purchase intent (Figure D). This feature offered by Monday Sales CRM does not require any coding, making it easily used and implemented by organizations that lack that technical expertise.
