Smartsheet is a little outdated. Requires a lot of set up to make it work for multiple teams
What do you like best about the product?
Great project management tool for a small team using the same template. You can create project sheets and assign tasks that show up in each individual team members to do list. If you stick to the same template and keep things the same in each project, it will work great. Also you can build some impressive dashboards to demonstrate project progress.
What do you dislike about the product?
If one person strays from the agreed upon template when setting up a project in Smartsheet, that project will not show up in your to do list. this holds true even if you are an assigned person on the tasks in the project. I find this incredibly frustrating because I try to rely on my "tasks" sheet to stay on track and manage deadlines.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Allowing my team of six people collaborate and project manager together in one easy to access place.
Low barrier to entry but current licensing model precludes more-widespread use
What do you like best about the product?
Ease of use has historically been the strength of smartsheet for me. While I have expert-level experience with many project management tools, anyone on my teams capable of using google sheets has the technical knowledge to maintain their own task data. Reducing barriers to information flow has been a driver, but this is now in question due to change in licensing terms.
What do you dislike about the product?
Because we lost the ability for free users to maintain their own task-level expected completion date information, a major draw to the program has been lost and we are considering alternatives.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Timeline development and tracking; connections across projects
Streamlined Visibility with Few Manual Steps
What do you like best about the product?
I find Smartsheet incredibly valuable for creating visibility across different work teams. The automation reduces manual steps and follow-up, enhancing efficiency. I also appreciate the dashboards, which are crucial for stakeholder and executive communication.
What do you dislike about the product?
I don't like the lack of design options in Smartsheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Smartsheet for project management as it creates visibility across different work teams and reduces manual steps, enhancing workflow with automation and dashboards.
Very useful, with some areas for improvement
What do you like best about the product?
Ability to map projects out in advance and allowing the wider team to have access to view and follow
What do you dislike about the product?
Better control over the reminders - possibly set the interval/lead time of the reminder individually like you would on an outlook event - choose longer or shorter lead times as needed. a prompt to start a task and a reminder to finish it off nearer the dead line. Presently email inbox can become overwhelmed quite quickly with things that don't need reminders.
Reminders would also benefit with details of the parent task/sheet, with multiple projects active a generic task description "design assessment" for example could relate to any of the active projects as the reminder doesn't tell you the project title
