Too good to resist
What do you like best about the product?
Dashboard features is the most used feature.It will give you the different team overview along with their % use and allocation on any project. I have a dashboard for my team members(50+) where I can see the insight out for all team member.

It is bit slow.I think Smartsheet need to work on their loading speed. When we change any field or filter it is taking more than 4-5 minutes to load/refresh the page.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's a perfect tool for managing your project along with People. Different types of dashboards are beneficial in reviewing the overall business goal in terms of the allocation of resources.

A fantastic tool for managing large scale projects and teams
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet provides an easy way to collaborate with teams and share workspaces. It is easy to use, and our team was able to grasp advanced concepts quickly with the help of the Smartsheet Learning Center and Smartsheet University. Lastly, our existing skills were easily transferable from Excel, so we did not have to spend many resources on training.
What do you dislike about the product?
Smartsheet has lots of potential, but it has its issues. There are quite a few heavily requested features across the community that we would all like to see come to Smartsheet; I often end up finding a post from 5 years ago on the Smartsheet Feature Requests page that a lot of people would like to see that gets ignored, which is a shame to see as some of those features would be extremely useful for our team and others alike as well.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We have been struggling with various things in Excel; the collaborative features were not great, it was missing functionality, and it was often not the most user-friendly. Smartsheet changed all that with its simple-to-understand design and layout, as well as helpful links that our team could access if we ever hit a roadblock. Smartsheet helped keep everything in one place and helped organise our work considerably.
Efficient, simple and user friendly programme
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to be shared with others. Interlinking of formulas between sheets are straightforward and easy to use. I can also easily access sheets directly from my mobile phone.
What do you dislike about the product?
Even though I tick to stay signed in, for some reason it always signs be out anyway. A better login screen and prompts will be usefull, or perhaps a desktop app?
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We are keeping track of actual sales vs our sales targets. Individual sales staff are able to record and keep track of signed deals. This all is incorporated into one tracking sheet per division.
We are also uploading info for management meetings into smartsheet for consolidation of accounting system, as well as smartsheet records.

Better Project Management & Visibility
What do you like best about the product?
We've been searching for a tool for some time to help us better manage our customer projects. Smartsheet gives us the ability to understand what is due week by week, who is responsible, what the blockers are and much more. The visibility the tool provides is game-changing for us.
What do you dislike about the product?
The report creation is slightly cumbersome, but with some dedicated time and effort it is usually possible to create the report you have in mind. There are some filter limitations also, but like most platforms, there are workarounds.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing deadlines and availability has been a challenge for us in the past, simply because we lacked visibility. Smartsheet has helped us to rectify this issue in many cases. We're able to be more productive day by day, and prioritise the work that needs doing.
Flexible, self-developable and interactive environment for people who are familiar with Excel.

For building grand-scale data-flows and project-processes, users must have basic Excel skills. If they dont, it is easy to misuse the environment. Only applies to grand-scale self-developements.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet is a great environment for interactive data-gathering and searcing, including text and pictures, and transforming this data into a fixed format.
Automated countless tasks along with bringing the team together

The convenience of utilisation and the capacity to collaborate with other teams are key benefits. By designing forms for team members to complete, we can effectively manage our workload and determine priorities.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's a lack of comprehensive training, which means one has to make extra effort to grasp certain functionalities. Furthermore, our current package provides more capabilities than what we're utilising, but we're not familiar with all its features.

The platform facilitates teamwork across our entire organisation, enabling us to collaborate with diverse segments of the marketing team. Additionally, we utilise it to develop our marketing strategies and plans.
Smartsheet Review - Business use
What do you like best about the product?
Whilst working in compliance, being able to clearly show data and store evidence within cells of smartsheet was fantastic. I used this to be able to attain our annual ISO audits with ease.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface does seem a little dated and could do with a revamp 'face lift'. Other than that, the useability of the software; smartsheet is pretty much faultless.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Working in compliance has a range of issues when trying to store data in your own local systems. Smartsheet enables me to store, show, and demonstrate data to any auditor or member of staff needing particular evidence and/or information.
Great collaborative business tool
What do you like best about the product?
Online, collaborative, visual, have found the automations to be very helpful in keeping track of projects.
What do you dislike about the product?
I also use Office 365/Excel Online and I find I switch between them at certain times for different use cases. Smartsheet doesn't autosave, which I find limiting. I like features in Office 365 where you can see exactly who is in a document at the same time with you and can both work together live without needing to save and update. I find Excel 365 seems a bit easier at times to share the documents in a variety fo ways, Smartsheet seems a bit more limiting on that front.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Keeping track of projects in easy to follow Gannt charts, collaboration and assigning information, filling info back into the project with easy to generate forms and automoations.
