Reviews of Subitem Automations, our subitem app for standard boards. This app is new and has no reviews of its own yet.
“The creators of this app are amazing. Responsive and helpful. I reached out about an automation that didn't yet exist and they built it within 48 hrs! I highly recommend this app.”
“Power app for subitem automations. This app is key for my team who sends subitems to be primary items on other boards, linking the two. Essential app for me.”
“The app feels so seamlessly integrated into monday.com that it’s hard to believe this isn’t a native feature. The ability to automate subitems directly based on parent item changes has saved us so much manual work.”
“Has everything missing in Monday's native capabilities. I reached out for support with a broken automation, and they responded and helped very quickly. Also appreciate the free plan is not majorly limited, like many other Monday Apps. Highly recommend!”
“I use Subitem Automations to set due dates in my subitems that are certain number of days prior to an event (item) date. When their recipes didn't do exactly what I was looking for, they developed new solutions for me within a week. I highly recommend!”
“This app turned Monday into a project management tool I actually enjoy using. It saves a ton of time and we find new uses for the plugin all the time. The features of this app should be standard in Monday. Thanks!”

Questions about Multi-Level Subitem Automations.
How is this different from Subitem Automations?
This app is built for monday.com's multi-level boards, with up to 5 levels of subitems. Subitem Automations is for standard boards.
Does it work on any board?
No. It only works on multi-level boards, monday.com's board type with 5 subitem levels.
What counts as one action?
An action is anything an automation does for you: one status change, one date update. If an automation updates 10 subitems at once, that's 10 actions.
What happens if I run out of actions?
We email you at 50%, 75% and 100% of your quota. At 100%, your automations pause until the 1st of the next month, when your quota refreshes automatically. We never auto-upgrade your plan. If you need them running sooner, upgrade anytime.
Do I need to be a monday.com admin to install it?
Not always. monday.com admins, or users with app-install permission, can install Marketplace apps. If you're neither, ask your admin to install it.
How does billing work, and can I cancel anytime?
monday.com handles all payments through the Marketplace, so we never see your card details. You can switch to the Free plan anytime and keep your current plan until the end of the billing cycle.
Where do I find my invoices?
monday.com issues all invoices for Marketplace apps, usually on the same invoice as your monday.com subscription. Admins can download them from Marketplace → Manage → Multi-Level Subitem Automations → Billing → three-dot menu → Invoices.
Can I get a refund?
Yes. Every plan comes with a full refund within the first 30 days, and monthly plans can be cancelled anytime. Refunds are issued by monday.com.
