It is very user friendly, but extreemly versitile.
What do you like best about the product?
The versatility, we use this from full production (fully automated and linked workshop production) to simple meeting agendas that all stakeholders can contribute to. Easy to establish a sheet and then build and evolve, a real efficiency time saver.
What do you dislike about the product?
The fact that you can't add highlighting or bold to some text within a box, you can only do the whole box.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We were printing sheets for each stage of production, we now have a fully digital workshop that works on seamless automation. Or sheets go from forecast to dispatch, including picking, assembly, QA dispatch, and even a dashboard linked in for live updates.
One of the best applications for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Best parts of Smartsheet are that it allows collaboration and sharing of information very easily to lots of people. The Dashboards function means that visibly it is easy to see which projects are on track and when they are falling behind.
What do you dislike about the product?
The excel like features are not as user friendly at times, especially setting up Vlookups and performing calculations within a smartsheet. I end up spending sometime in the help function to understand standard excel formulas which work on Excel but do not on smartsheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet allows me to schedule Enhancement projects, track timelines, and assign tasks to team members. It is allowing me to more productive and see where the time is being spent.
Great For Project Managers and Project Organization
What do you like best about the product?
I like how versatile it can be away from the traditional Excel document that was the norm. This tool is great to keep stakeholders, outside investors, and engagement throughout the entire project life cycle.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish it was a little more automated for project managers. When a new project is created, with the right framework, i wish it would auto-generate tasks that were used previously.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
the use to keep all my tasks aligned to the project that i am working on. It also allowed me to be flexible in changing what i need on the go.
SmartSheet is a shareable and collaborative Microsoft Excel
What do you like best about the product?
I like SmartSheet's ability to be saved and shared real-time. SmartSheet, unlike other online platforms, does not lag which makes user experience very positive. SmartSheet's ribbon pane is also simple and very easy to navigate.
What do you dislike about the product?
At the moment, there is nothing I dislike about SmartSheet. If it weren't for its ability to be shared easily online via email and shareable link, then I would have no use for it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I manage 4 very big projects, all of which are tied to the same initiative. Each project has its own audience and team to support, and having a SmartSheet that is easily identifiable, separate, and built differently for each project allows each audience to use their own creativity in how they want to develop and manage their respective SmartSheet. I find this ability to be fluid with different audiences a key advantage of SmartSheet.
Versatile tool that fills gaps
What do you like best about the product?
Like many companies, we use many tools, and Smartsheet helps fill the gaps in the capability of our other internal tools. Some of our team members use it for project management using the board view; others use it for external communication on projects. It is flexible and versatile, and the ability to share it with users outside of the company with different permission levels is useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
There is a bit of a learning curve with Smartsheet. There is so much functionality; it can be hard to unlock all the potential immediately. Still learning new tricks and functions after more than a year.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
External communication on projects with customer stakeholders that our internal tools do not have the capability for. A project management tool that is robust.
Essential Tool for Efficient Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Real-time collaboration provides a centralized platform for teams to work together efficiently. Team members can easily share sheets, make comments, attach files, and assign tasks. The ability to mention colleagues and tag them in discussions adds an extra layer of clarity and accountability.
What do you dislike about the product?
Learning curve. Educating many people, such as divisions and other subsidiaries, is difficult. While the learning curve is manageable, it may require time and effort to become proficient and maximize the tool's potential.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet solves unorganized workflows and tasks among teams. Smartsheet helps streamline workflows and where teams can track tasks and deadlines. It eliminates any unnecessary meetings and enables more work productivity.
Smartsheet is great for project management!
What do you like best about the product?
We use Smartsheet mostly for project management. Before Smartsheet, we used a clunky homemade SharePoint site format that was very difficult to navigate. Smartsheet has a great layout and we're able to pull data up into reports and dashboards to quickly and easily show stakeholders where a project is at in it's lifecycle.
What do you dislike about the product?
We have had a lot of issues connecting Jira to Smartsheet and then on to Resource Management. This has gotten better over time, but it was a very difficult setup to get right. Mostly because all three systems see time differently, so we had to put some pretty complex calculations in place to make it work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smatsheet is helping us manage projects better and report on the progress of projects (RAID log, status, overdue tasks, etc.)
Is a very useful, intuitive and practical tool for project management
What do you like best about the product?
The fact that it allows you to adjust the sections voices as you prefer depending on the client and project-related needs, and it also allows people who are added later to have access to all communication and documentation. Automations related to message notifications and daily activity summaries are also very useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
I can't tell what are disadvantages, I'm very satisfied with this tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The problem it solves is all the communications scattered in different places and not reaching the right people. Thanks to Smartsheet, all communications and documentation are in one place that acts as a repository, and even people who join a project later have access to everything. Also being able to tag the person you want to communicate with allows to always specifically reach the right people.
SmartSheet is the way to go if you want to save time and have a nice user-friendly interface
What do you like best about the product?
The user-friendly interface and the facility to generate automations whitout requiring technical or coding knowledge.
The facility to generate outstanding looking Dashboards.
The interconnection with other sheets and external tools.

What do you dislike about the product?
Maybe some fine-tuning options on certain aspects are missing.
I'm missing an option to come back to previous data/versions easily in "real-time" more like Excel online/SharePoint does.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It allows to greatly reduce the time required to do "Administrative tasks" such as sending manual emails to stakehodlers asking for updates or reminders (Notifications & Update Request features).
Also it is great to configure and share Dashboards with multiple data sources for people to be up to date without necessity to manually update them.

Work more efficiently with Smartsheet
What do you like best about the product?
I'm a big fan of Smartsheet's comprehensive organisational capabilities. Not only does it allow me to easily monitor various projects, but it also streamlines collaboration and communication between team members with features like automated notifications that remind us when tasks are due or other changes have been made. Other customisation options allow me to create the ideal view for monitoring content or quickly brainstorming ideas. All in all, these incredible features make Smartsheet my go-to project management tool.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that Smartsheet's interface is unintuitive and inflexible, making it difficult to navigate. The search function often returns irrelevant information, making it unnecessarily difficult to find specific documents or data. It also lacks integration with other desktop applications - something I think should be standard for any cloud-based software of its size and stature.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Smartsheet to plan my engineering projects, whether they're major renovations or simple repairs. It helps me communicate the project schedule clearly and keeps everyone on board so that our goals are met efficiently - a bonus I appreciate as an engineer.
