Straight answers, with the numbers.
How much does it cost to set up monday.com for a company like ours?
Foundation starts at $3,000 for one week: a master board with your stages, an intake form, three automations, a dashboard and a recorded training. Overhaul starts at $5,000 and fixes the monday.com, Asana, Smartsheet, Airtable or ClickUp account you already have. Full System starts at $7,000 for two weeks: every board, money by stage, what you're waiting on, partners and vendors, leads, proposals, permissions and dashboards. After the free review, we send a fixed quote that covers the move from spreadsheets or another tool. With seats at $19 each a month on monday.com's annual Pro plan, a ten-person company on Full System spends from $9,280 in year one.
How long does it take?
Foundation takes one week, from the recorded intake call to the recorded training. Overhaul takes one week for most accounts and two for a large one. Full System takes two weeks, with the migration done inside that time. Your part is the intake call, the final demo and one review session where you click through the structure before we automate anything.
We already use monday.com and it's a mess. Can you fix what we have?
Yes, that's Overhaul, which starts at $5,000. We audit your monday.com, Asana, Smartsheet, Airtable or ClickUp account, then rebuild the boards and automations nobody trusts. We clear out duplicate boards, dead automations and broken integrations, and set up permissions and dashboards around how your company runs. Your data stays where it is, and a recorded training shows your team the new setup. Most overhauls take one week, and a large account takes two.
Can you move us off spreadsheets, Asana, Trello or another tool?
Yes. A script moves your records and tracks each one by its ID in the old tool, so a half-finished run restarts without importing anything twice. We check the counts in both directions before calling it done, and we never delete the old tool. For a Los Angeles design studio, we moved 77 projects and 2,109 tasks out of Asana with zero mismatches. Read the full method.
Should we build on monday.com or buy software made for our industry?
Sometimes you should buy, and each industry page names the tool and says when. Monograph suits an architecture firm whose problem is timesheets, and ServiceTitan suits a dispatch-heavy trades business. For large construction it's Procore, for inventory an ERP and for online giving a donor CRM. monday.com wins when jobs, money, approvals and partners live in six places and you need one system in your own vocabulary. The free 30-minute review gives you a straight answer for your company.
Do you work with companies outside the industries listed?
Yes, we work with companies outside the eight listed. Many of our 90+ builds were for other industries, health and care practices among them, and each one was built around how that company runs. Book the free 30-minute review and we'll tell you what we'd build first, in your own vocabulary.
Who does the work?
Benjamin leads every engagement himself, from the first call through the design, build, migration and training. Before we call the system done, a script reads your live account and checks that every board, column and record is in place. After launch, the care plan keeps the same person on it.
Do you only build on monday.com?
No. Most clients end up on monday.com, and Hawkpoint is an official monday.com partner. But the free review starts with no tool in mind. When it shows that Asana, Airtable or Notion fits better, we build the same packages there at the same price. We design the system first and choose the tool second.
Can monday.com connect to QuickBooks, Gmail, Outlook and the other tools we use?
Yes. We set up monday.com's built-in integrations, such as Gmail, Outlook, Slack, Google Calendar and forms, in the build. Tools without one, most often QuickBooks Online, connect through a small app in your account or through Make, an integration tool. We price that work into your fixed quote before it starts. One rule keeps it simple: the accounting system owns the money and monday.com owns the work.
Will our team actually use it?
That's what we design the build around. Everything uses your words, not a template's. We load your real jobs before anyone logs in, so the first login shows people their own work. Training is recorded, every common task has a short how-to video and the care plan fixes whatever turns out wrong in the first month. The usual sign it's working: the Monday meeting runs off the dashboard instead of a spreadsheet.
Is our data safe in monday.com?
monday.com publishes its security attestations, including SOC 2, ISO 27001 and HIPAA, on its trust and public sector pages, as read on October 6, 2026. Inside your account, private boards and permissions keep fees, payroll and client terms visible only to the right people. Anything a regulator or lender cares about stays where your official records already live. We work inside your account, so your data never leaves it.
How do we start?
Book the free 30-minute review and bring your job list as it is today: a spreadsheet, a whiteboard photo or a tool you half use. You'll leave with a written list of what to build first and a straight answer on whether monday.com is right for you. If it is, your first build goes live within two weeks after you approve the board map.
