I'd say Definitely yes for a monestera, especially if you want larger growth. I use both cocofiber poles and moss depending on species. The cocofiber i mist, the moss, i water the moss. I just got new moss poles from 'The moss pole' I haven't set them up though. If you mmean pins to pin the plant in, the moss pole ssells them, as well as other folks online

If we’re talking Deliciosa I will always rec sphagnum moss. MD really wants to sink roots and this is the best bet for them to grow really huge. A word of caution though — fungus gnats looove to breed in the moss. Preventatively you can water your moss pole with mosquito bits/dunks to keep them under control

What about for others, I have like 12 pothos and two philodendrons that I’ve never tried to give support before so I’m curious

what types of philo?

pothos will attach to anything even slightly porous, including your walls lol — sphag or coco coir will work

I was watching the Sheffield plant guy on YouTube, if you’re going to train your pothos to grow vertically, he suggests trimming the hanging vines first (\& propagate them for a fuller pot, or another plant) and then put the pole in, teaching the new vines to attach to the pole.  
I have a pothos starting on a moss pole, but I’m thinking about a wood trellis or a cedar plank from the building store for my Jade pothos. If I could afford it, I’d get a wood trellis from Treleaf on Zella. But being from Canada with the USD to CAD xchange, I can’t justify the cost 😞
