Direct comparison
NuvenarHub vs Monday Sales CRM.
Monday Sales CRM is a CRM built on Monday's project-management engine. Current published pricing (monday.com/crm/pricing, verified June 2026): Basic $12/seat/mo annual, Standard $17, Pro $28; 3-seat minimum, GBP shown at checkout. Teams switch to NuvenarHub when they want a CRM-first tool instead of a Kanban board that happens to track deals. The headline gap is communication: Monday has no native WhatsApp inbox and no native calling, so a five-seat sales team ends up with Monday plus Aircall plus a WhatsApp tool, where NuvenarHub Pro at £480/mo bundles all of it.

Who wins where
Honest cases for each.
NuvenarHub wins for
- Teams whose primary need is sales pipeline and customer comms, not project management.
- Founders who want WhatsApp and calling inside the CRM, not as separate vendors.
- UK service businesses where the buying conversation happens on WhatsApp, not over email and Slack.
- Teams that want a flat-monthly price instead of per-seat scaling.
Monday Sales CRM wins for
- Teams that already run all internal work on Monday and want the CRM to fit the same paradigm.
- Project-heavy agencies where every client becomes a multi-board project after the deal closes.
- Operations teams that need the same tool to handle CRM, internal projects, OKRs, and intake forms.
Migration
Switching from Monday Sales CRM.
Monday's CRM exports to CSV per board. Import to NuvenarHub takes about 30 minutes for a typical 1,000-deal pipeline. Custom columns map to NuvenarHub custom fields. Automations rebuild in our visual workflow builder, usually faster than translating Monday's recipe model. A 30-minute migration call with a senior engineer is free if you want help.

Questions on switching.
If the answer is not here, send the question to support@nuvenar.com. Replies inside one working day.
- It is a CRM workflow built on top of Monday's general work-management engine. The fundamentals (contacts, deals, pipelines, automations) are there. The gaps are communication channels: no native WhatsApp, no native calling, no native broadcasts. Teams that live in those channels stitch three vendors together to fill the gap.
- Monday CRM Pro: £120 / month for 5 users. Plus Aircall (£25 / seat = £125 / month). Plus a WhatsApp tool like Trengo (£20 / seat = £100 / month). Plus Mailchimp for broadcasts (£40 / month). Total around £385 / month. NuvenarHub Pro at £480 / month bundles the same surface area without the four-vendor admin overhead.
- Lightly. Each won deal can become a project record with stages and tasks. For agencies running heavy multi-board project workflows, keep Monday for project management and use NuvenarHub for the sales and customer-comms side, with a one-way sync from won deals to Monday projects by Zapier.
- We have a visual workflow builder that does the same job (triggers, conditions, actions across CRM, messaging, calling, email). The trigger library is smaller than Monday's, but covers the 95 percent CRM automation case (deal stage change, time elapsed, message received, payment outcome).
- Project management depth. If your team's main job after a deal closes is delivering a multi-week project with sub-tasks, status reports, and time tracking, Monday is the better tool. The CRM bolt-on is fine, the project engine underneath is mature.
- For a typical 1,000-deal pipeline, plan for half a day. CSV export from each Monday board, import to NuvenarHub with field mapping, rebuild of the top 5 automations, WhatsApp number setup. A senior engineer walks through it on a call if you want.
