Editorial verdict

Visual PM with geo-priced AUD cards, not AU-only hosting

monday.com Work Management is still the visual, guest-friendly option, but the AU-visible yearly cards are A$14 / $19 / $30 excl tax, not the stored USD $9 / $12 / $19 as if they were AUD. Guests, Gantt and 250 automations start on Standard. Dependencies sit on Pro advanced columns. Workload/resource management is Enterprise. AWS APAC exists; help does not promise every Australian account is Sydney-only.

Best for
Teams of 3+ people who want highly visual, customisable project management with strong automation. Particularly suited to marketing, operations, creative, and cross-functional teams that value flexible workflows and Australian data residency.
Not ideal for
Buyers who need proven AU-only hosting, 1–2 person teams that would hit the 3-seat paid floor, or anyone who needs workload views without an Enterprise quote.

Overview

monday.com is visual work management platform with customisable workflows. Founded in 2012 and headquartered in Tel Aviv, Israel, it serves Australian businesses.

Feature highlights

These highlights come from vendor documentation and editorial analysis of public sources. They are not firsthand test results or a claim that every listed capability was exercised in a trial.

  • AU cards A$14 / $19 / $30 excl tax

    Yearly Work Management cards for an AU visitor. USD list remains $9 / $12 / $19 annual. Tax extra. Min 3 paid seats.

  • Guests and Gantt start on Standard

    Guest access, Timeline, Gantt and 250 automations/month are Standard. Basic is boards and viewers only.

  • Dependencies on Pro; workload on Enterprise

    Advanced columns (dynamic dependencies) are Pro. Resource management is an Enterprise line, not Pro.

  • APAC region is not every AU tenant

    Some APAC accounts host in APAC AWS. Help also maps Oceania to US. Credentials stay US. Not AU-sovereign.

  • Do not mix CRM/dev/service prices

    CRM, Service and Dev print different AUD tables. These figures are Work Management only.

  • ISO + SOC on the trust centre

    Trust FAQ: ISO 27001/27017/27018/27032/27701 and SOC 1/2/3. HIPAA listed. PCI is the billing processor, not monday.com.

AU Compliance Scores

These scores apply to Australian tax, payroll and banking capabilities where they are relevant to monday.com. They are SoftwareHQ editorial judgements from public documentation, not firsthand product tests.

Not applicable means this product type is not scored on that dimension (for example BAS lodgement on a CRM). Not supported means the vendor does not offer it. Unknown means we could not verify it from public sources — that is not the same as unsupported.

BAS LodgementNot applicable

Project management tool. BAS stays in accounting software.

STP Phase 2Not applicable

No native AU payroll.

Payday SuperNot applicable

No payroll.

Modern AwardsNot applicable

No payroll.

GST HandlingNot applicable

How this review was made

Reviews separate vendor documentation, editorial analysis and firsthand records. They are not interchangeable.

  • Vendor documentation — Public pages from monday.com and other sites. Recorded HTTP(S) URLs are listed under Sources. A source URL is a document we recorded, not a claim that every sentence on this page was checked against that URL.
  • Editorial analysis — SoftwareHQ's written verdict and scores for Australian buyers. The header score is an editorial assessment, not a user-review average, not a lab result, and not a number derived from how many evidence records exist.
  • Firsthand records — This review has no firsthand observation records, trial walkthroughs, or screenshots from a logged-in SoftwareHQ account. Missing tests stay not tested.

This page does not rank products by speed or security from documentation or from evidence count.

Checked by SoftwareHQ Editorial Team. There is no named author profile for this page; attribution stays with the SoftwareHQ editorial team. How we test and the editorial policy for scoring, independence and affiliate rules.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does monday.com offer Australian data hosting?
An APAC AWS region exists (Sydney launch 2023; help updated 31 May 2026). Some APAC accounts are hosted there. Help also says Oceania can default to US, credentials stay in the US region, and sub-processors may be outside APAC. Israel processing is disclosed. That is not AU-only sovereignty. You cannot move region after data is stored.

AU visitors see AUD on monday.com/pricing (8 Sep 2026). Work Management yearly cards: Basic A$14, Standard A$19, Pro A$30 per seat/month billed annually, excl tax. USD yearly list is still $9 / $12 / $19. Price follows billing country. Monthly-billing AUD was not captured on the yearly toggle.
What is the minimum number of seats on monday.com?
Free: 2 seats. Paid: minimum 3, then buckets (help, 6 Sep 2026). A 4-person team buys 5 seats.
Does monday.com integrate with Xero?
No first-party Xero SKU on the Work Management cards opened this check. Treat accounting sync as marketplace/Zapier unless you verify a named app.

monday.com/trustcenter/faqs: ISO 27001, 27017, 27018, 27032, 27701; SOC 1 Type II, SOC 2 Type II, SOC 3; GDPR, CCPA, HIPAA. PCI via the billing processor.
