Highly Configurable Solution for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
I use Smartsheet for project management and it allows us to see all of our projects in a clear view and manage resources effectively. It's highly configurable for our business, which makes it perfect for our needs. The initial setup worked really well.

Nothing to mention - anytime we have looked at alternatives, we find ourselves wanting to stick with Smartsheet.

Effortless Project Management with Gantt Clarity
What do you like best about the product?
I like the simple Gantt chart format in Smartsheet, which helps me see the critical path and understand when specific tasks are scheduled. It's also easy to link sheets together, allowing me to put together an overview and identify when tasks are scheduled simultaneously, which helps manage high demand on teams. Setting up simple projects with a Work Breakdown Structure in Smartsheet has not been difficult either.
What do you dislike about the product?
Understanding the features of Smartsheet to make the most use out of it. I know there are many different tools within Smartsheet, but we tend to only use it for task breakdowns and Gantt charts.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Smartsheet for managing project schedules and ensuring tasks are planned and communicated effectively. It solves the problem of scheduling high importance tasks and helps highlight resource constraints. The Gantt chart and sheet linking simplify viewing task schedules and identifying clashes.
Detailed Planning and Effective Resource Management with Smartsheet
What do you like best about the product?
I find the resource view to be the biggest benefit for us. The project plans are clear and they suit the granular way in which we plan our projects and assign tasks to our team. This helps us ensure that our team isn't overloaded, which is very important for us. People aren't overworked, and they have the headspace to be productive and deliver a great quality product. It's really about managing that workload on an individual basis in a dynamic environment. Also, the initial setup was pretty easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of our people don't like the Excel vibe of the plans. They also don't like the resource view kind of detail. It's specific to people who struggle with those types of documents anyway, and it hampers how many of our people can be really proactive in Smartsheet. But we do have people who are quite adept at using the tool and have no issues.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Smartsheet to manage multiple projects efficiently, especially when facing constant changes. The resource view helps avoid overloading our team, ensuring productivity and high-quality deliverables. Project plans are clear and fit our detailed planning approach.
