Great way to quickly organize and collaborate with teams
What do you like best about the product?
The flexibility; it's easy to add and sort information, as well as tag colleagues to specific tasks or line items. The sync to Saleforce is a game changer too; very easy to use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I wish there were more hotkeys or shortcuts. Its closest comparison is Excel, which you can operate much faster. Additional integrations with portfolio management tools, like Addepar would be nice. I do not like the difficulty of creating formulas which reference other sheet - it is way too manual.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We're replacing menial Excel files. We track and monitor projects more productively using Smartsheet. However; Excel is still better to use when needing more advanced analyses.
Used Smartsheet for several data collaborations with colleagues.
What do you like best about the product?
Integration with Google products and its simplicity of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the features are hidden/obscrured. There is definitely a learning curve.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration in a live document vs. sharing versions of a spreadsheet back and forth.
Smartsheet Tool is useful but does have limitations
What do you like best about the product?
I like that I am able to use Smartsheet to complete real-time collaboration across sites on various enterprise level items such as Approved Supplier Lists, Audit Schedules, Program Timelines and RAID logs.
What do you dislike about the product?
My understanding is that Smartsheet can be leveraged for so much more but it is not very intuitive in other uses. The use as an online excel file is very straightforward. The solution would benefit from the addition of how to tutorials online.
It is also limited in how I can leverage the tool for meetings. It would be great to have a ppt integration that allows me to pull gantt charts into a ppt slide. Currently I have to build these out separately which creates extra, non-value added work.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Real-time collaboration across the enterprise is much easier especially when your company has an aversion to SharePoint. It is also useful for creating Gannt charts.
A good easy to use tool

Ease of Collaborartion
What do you dislike about the product?
every task owner requires an account. sometimes the customer is a task owner and they are not using smartsheet so you have to force them to use the tool
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Gant charts, scheduling, collaboration
Overall good experience with Smartsheet
What do you like best about the product?
I like that it sends notifications of changes on the sheet; that I can build a form connected to the sheet which connects to the form; that I can share certain sheets with others to collaborate on projects; that there are grid and card formats and timeline templates that I can use which make starting projects much faster.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like that I can't transfer ownership to someone else on the project and that my company limits licenses because they're expensive. It's too hard to go through the hoops so some accounts just go sitting stale after people leave and no one can get access to that account. I don't use all of the functions so I can't speak for all of the bells and whistles but I'm glad it's simpler to use than Excel in many ways, but maybe it does need some extra features that are only available on Excel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Collaboration is a huge plus. Many of us can access the sheets and we can create interractive projects which can be fun and useful instead of just a boring spreadsheet.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Give it a try. It's like Excel, only better if you're using it to collaborate with teams.
A great place to collaborate
What do you like best about the product?
Creating a Smartsheet for construction schedules is a great way for the whole team (even those not in the field) to see the progress of the house. It's helpful for the purchasing department.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes there are too many "clicks" to get to the sheet that you need.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We use Smartsheet for construction schedules, open issues, and general excel that need to be shared between several people.
For general tracking, not a bad tool
What do you like best about the product?
For tracking across multiple sheets or tracking as you would with Excel, this app is awesome. The amount of data you can manipulate across the sheets is head and shoulders above the competitors I've used.
What do you dislike about the product?
The add-ons can add up, which can make it a tougher sell for full department integration. It's also not as intuitive as I would hope for more of the frills - color coding items, categorizing. You can do it but it takes a bit more time than competitors
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
With the help of Smartsheet, we built out a robust tracking system for our needs. It's been great. I look forward to seeing how it helps our leadership team to better track department status and budgets. The integration of DataMesh and Pivot has already been an excellent boost for budget tracking.
Centralized, but UI is a miss
What do you like best about the product?
Change history and seeing who viewed/updated. Chat/tagging
What do you dislike about the product?
Wish there were more formulas that are found in Excel, in addition to have individual cells have different attributes - such as a checkbox, different drop down options - those make it easier for a checklist with different variables.
Making dependencies is difficult since it requires formulas.
Formatting is horrendous - we still have to use emails for communications. If the formatting was better we would have better adoption. Unfortunately we are looking into other services like Asana that have a more user-friendly userface.

Centralized project tracking - agenda, status/progress, forms. It helps keep people accountable.
Smart Sheets Review
What do you like best about the product?
The features are easy to use and it is good to have simplicity in learning. Any new employee can be taught this software very quickly. Also, The project management is quite simple with the Smart Sheets software as it contains necessary details like dependencies, duration of work and assignments. Besides, their sharing feature is absolutely awesome. It allows to share and get feedback to many others which is very important in staying updated.
What do you dislike about the product?
The cost of using Smart Sheets for smaller firm is too high. Also, I have doubts about the authentication and security. Moreover, it is less functional than MS Project and other competitors. But, they are on a good track.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It is useful for our day to day meetings, keeping track of project actives, deliverable, and milestones. Also, it is helpful in sharing as it is online with multiple other stakeholders.
Recommendations to others considering the product:
Make it free for small companies or less costly
