You pay for seats nobody uses.
monday sells seats in bundles. A team of 7 buys the 10-seat bundle; a team of 12 buys 15. People have asked for per-seat billing on monday’s own community forum for years.

Why teams look
beyond monday.com.
Automations start on the second plan.
Basic has no automations or integrations. Standard has 250 actions a month, which reviewers say an active team uses quickly.
SourceMeetings and chat live somewhere else.
monday has no built-in video meetings or team chat, so most teams also pay for Zoom, Slack or Teams.

TO BE FAIR
What monday.com
does better.
- monday.com has a much larger integrations marketplace, and separate CRM and dev products if you need them.
- monday.com Pro includes time tracking. Snappi does not have built-in time tracking yet.
HOW TO MOVE
Three steps.
Keep monday.com running meanwhile.
- 1
Export from monday.com
Open the board menu in monday.com and export the board to Excel. Open the file and save it as CSV.
- 2
Import into a Snappi board
On a Snappi board, open the arrow next to New task and choose Import tasks. Snappi recognises a monday.com export and maps the columns for you. Item names, groups, status, priority, dates (including a timeline’s end date) and descriptions come across.
- 3
Invite your team
People who edit count toward the package; people who only need to look, like clients, join as free viewers or single-board guests and never count.
- Start on Free with no card for boards, tasks and messages, and run both tools side by side while you decide. Free takes 7 people, and more at $4 a month each. Meetings, calls, forms and automations start on Starter, which also includes 250 AI credits a month.
- Pay monthly if you would rather not commit to a year. On a paid package, a month when fewer people than the package’s threshold use Snappi and nobody meets, calls or uses AI costs half (the Quiet-Month Promise, up to 3 times in 12 months).
- On Team with yearly billing and still locked into another tool? We credit one month of overlap on your next invoice, checked by hand, so you are not paying twice while you move.
- Cancel any time; your plan runs to the end of the period you paid for.
- One price for your entire team, with the people included; viewers, board guests and meeting guests are never billed (meeting guests count toward the meeting’s people limit).
- Every board exports to CSV or Excel whenever you want your data out.

Questions about moving
What comes across from monday.com?
Item names, groups, status, priority, dates (including a timeline’s end date) and descriptions come across. People, comments, attachments and custom fields are not imported; invite your team and add those as you go.
How big an export can I import?
As big as you need. Snappi imports in batches of 500 tasks, one after another, and makes any groups (lists, sections) that do not exist yet.
Do we have to move everyone at once?
No. Start a free Snappi workspace for one team or one project while the rest stay on monday.com. Move the next board when you are ready.
What about meetings and chat?
Video meetings with guest links, recording, screen share and a whiteboard, plus 1:1 voice and video calls, start on Starter, so there is nothing extra to buy for them once you are on a paid package. Direct messages are on every plan, Free included. The AI note taker is paid from AI credits (250 a month from Starter) or notes pages, which Free can prepay for.
What if we need help moving?
Write to the Snappi team through the contact page. Agencies in Sri Lanka can ask about the Founding Agency offer, which includes moving one existing system across with you.
