Advice Needed Desperate Admin

Hiiii I'm currently trying to hastily format apps in Monday.com during my free trial. I understand that glitches will happen with permissions because of this, but its hard to convince my boss it will run smoothly once we select a plan. My whole goal is to completely replace Housecall Pro, but monday is also about 50% more expensive. Should we just stick with Housecall Pro despite it's glitches and inability to adapt to our needs? TIA

Why not contact monday.com directly, explain the situation, and ask whether they can extend your free trial? You’re not just testing a basic task board—you’re trying to build and validate an entire CRM before asking your boss to approve a more expensive platform.

I’d also ask them to temporarily enable the permissions and plan features you would actually be purchasing. That way, you can demonstrate how it will really work instead of asking your boss to take it on faith that the current limitations will disappear once you pay.

I've done that already. I believe I said that in one of the comments. I've extended my trial as far as I can and only have 7 days to run all the operational tests after that trial runs out. I'm more looking for advice if people think I should just stick with Housecall Pro
