Customer Support No Longer Exists and No Longer Small-Business Friendly
What do you like best about the product?
Nothing anymore. They used to appreciate small businesses and curtail their services to companies of any size, but that is no longer the case. They do not care about a company that pays for fewer than 15 paid members.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their SEVERE lack of customer service, and blatantly ignoring support that a customer needs because the problem has become too difficult or because it's no longer worth their time.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
They were TRYING to help my company move from an annual paid business membership to a monthly paid membership. Doing this would have resulted in more money for them in the long run. But once they figured out that EVENTUALLY (6+ months), we were going to move away from SmartSheets altogether, they stopped helping and just ignored all emails asking for help. This process should have been extremely simple. We've had virtual meetings, exchanged emails for 3.5 MONTHS, and have had the issue (supposedly) 'upgraded' to a higher-up individual on 3 separate occasions -- and yet, still no resolution. Apparently, if you want any meaningful help with your account (technical or administrative) while already being an established Smartsheets customer, you have to pay MORE for any level of 'technical support'.
Frustrating Billing Experience Outweighs Usability
What do you like best about the product?
I use Smartsheet for Marketing Project Management. It helps me track my marketing campaigns and events and share the information amongst multiple teams. I like that it is easy to use and similar to Excel but with more functionality. Tracking when tasks are complete helps me stay on track. The initial setup of Smartsheet was easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
Their customer service and hidden terms are horrible. I was recently charged for 14 users when I am just one. I issued multiple complaints and they hid behind terms that I never saw nor knew where they were. I couldn't get anyone on the phone to discuss. I tried using their support chat, but it was just a bot who couldn't help with anything. When I finally got someone via email they didn't help nor did they offer me any type of refund. My Smartsheet payments go to an account I don't access regularly, so I didn't see it until I was overcharged over $1000 dollars. Horrifying experience. Their policy is no refunds. Billing practices need to be clearer and they need to prompt users when they make changes that will impact costs. I had shared Smartsheets with users with edit modes that weren't under my plan and then suddenly they were. When I added people there was no prompt telling me that I would be charged more.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Smartsheet to track my marketing campaigns and events and share information with multiple teams. It helps me stay on track.

Easy Spreadsheet Sharing, But Pricey Compared to MSExcel

Smartsheet: The Perfect Bridge Between Spreadsheets and Databases
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is widely considered one of the most helpful work management tools because it bridges the gap between the simplicity of a spreadsheet and the power of a database.
What do you dislike about the product?
No Autosave: This is arguably the most "least helpful" feature. You must manually click Save to see changes or for others to see your updates. If you forget and close the tab, your work can be lost.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Single Source of Truth: Everyone works on the same live sheet simultaneously.
Audit Trails: You can see exactly who changed a specific cell and when, reducing accountability gaps and manual errors.
