Slack utilizes one of the slickest ways of setting reminders for you or a team member that would solve Monday’s lack of decent reminder-setting features.
Using simple shortcuts in the “Updates” section of an item, you could set a reminder for yourself, a team, or team member with the exact date.
This is sorely needed for the CRM Emails and Activities, especially when teams don’t have permissions to create automations, but this feature would also be excellent for personal or team-based reminders.
If Monday can’t implement something like this, they should really improve or develop a great way of setting reminders that doesn’t require a dedicated date field and a specific automation.
