Project Portfolio Management – PPM for monday.com: Pricing Update

Starting November 5th, 2024, we’re updating the pricing model for the Project Portfolio Management (PPM) app on monday.com. We’ve made these changes based on user feedback, especially from teams with many users where not everyone needs access to PPM. The new model is designed to be more flexible, so you only pay for the people who actually use the app.

PPM pricing update

What’s Changing?

With the new pricing model, PPM administrators now have the ability to manage a whitelist of active users within the app. This means you can specify exactly which team members have access to PPM, and the number of users can vary depending on the plan you’ve chosen. This change helps organizations allocate resources effectively, ensuring only those who need the PPM features are included.

Pricing Structure Overview

Below is a breakdown of the new pricing tiers for PPM. These tiers vary based on the number of users and the features provided:

Size $/User Monthly  Features
Up to 3 users $10 $30 Standard
Up to 5 users $10 $50 Standard
Up to 10 users $8 $80 Standard
Up to 20 users $5 $100 Standard
Up to 30 users $5 $150 Standard
Up to 50 users $4 $200 Standard + Goals OKRs
Up to 100 users $3 $300 Standard + Goals OKRs
Up to 200 users $2 $400 Standard + Goals OKRs + Budget Management
Unlimited $600 Standard + Goals OKRs + Budget Management

Note: As of this update, the Goals OKRs and Budget Management features are not currently available. This update focuses on the new pricing model, which manages costs based on active users in the PPM app. Administrators can now select specific users who need PPM access, ensuring that organizations only pay for those actively using the app.

If you choose to pay annually, you’ll receive a 20% discount on the total cost. This option is great for organizations looking to maximize savings over the long term.

Important Notes on Switching to the New Model

  • Who Does This Apply To? The new user management and pricing structure applies only to the updated pricing model. Users on the old model can continue as they are without any changes. However, if you wish to switch to the new pricing model, you’ll need to cancel your current plan and sign up for the updated one.
  • Adjustments for Prepaid Licenses: If you’ve prepaid for more licenses than you now need, changes will be reflected at the next billing cycle. This ensures that your organization’s actual needs are met without unnecessary costs.

How to Apply the New PPM Pricing Model on monday.com

By default, billing under the new PPM model will include all users. To adjust this and apply the new pricing for a specific tier, follow these steps:

1- Choose the Right Plan for Your Team: First, select the plan that matches your team’s needs.

For example, if your company has 50 users on monday.com, but only 4 need access to PPM, you should choose the plan for up to 5 users.

2-  Go to App Settings: Open the PPM app, navigate to “App Settings,” and then select “User Management.” This is where you’ll control which users are given access to PPM.

3- Add Users: Click “Add User” to choose which team members will have access to the PPM app. This allows you to tailor access specifically to those who need it and ensures you only pay for active users.

User Management

This setup gives you full control over who can access PPM features, helping you manage costs more effectively by only paying for users who need the app.

Under the new model, admins now have greater control over who can access the PPM app. Only users on the approved list will be able to use the app’s features, while anyone not on the list will see a denied permission screen if they try to access it. This ensures that only designated team members can use PPM, helping organizations maintain both security and cost efficiency by allowing access to those who truly need it.

General Questions

1. Will current users be automatically switched to the new pricing model?

No, users currently on the old pricing model can continue using it without any changes. If you want to switch to the new model, you can either wait until the end of your billing cycle or cancel your existing plan and re-subscribe under the updated pricing structure at any time.

2. What happens if I downgrade plans?

If you downgrade your plan to a lower tier, the change will take effect at the start of your next billing cycle. Your new plan will reflect the adjusted number of users and features, and your billing will be updated accordingly. Keep in mind that if you’ve prepaid for more users than needed, you won’t receive a refund for the difference mid-cycle, but the new lower rate will apply moving forward.

3. How much will my upgrade cost?

If you are upgrading in the middle of a subscription, the unused balance of the current plan will apply to the price of the new plan and start a brand new billing cycle. 

The prorated upgrade charge would be the total plan price minus the unused carryover balance from your previous plan. 

4. Will there be any changes to users who don’t use the PPM app?

Under the new model, billing is by default enabled for all users. However, if a user is not on the approved list for PPM, they won’t have access and will see a denied permission screen instead.
