What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
HELPS ME TO KEEP ON TRACK OF MY TASKS AND THE INFORMATION OF MY DAILY ACTIVITIES WITH THE POSSIBILITY TO UPDATE AND MODIFY AND BE VISIBLE FOR THE TEAM
Intuitive and flexible in creating and modifying plans
What is our primary use case?
It's mostly for project management, scheduling, and planning.
How has it helped my organization?
Smartsheet mainly helps with project planning, maintaining and updating the plan, identifying and documenting risks, and staying on top of the plan.
What is most valuable?
It's very flexible when creating and modifying plans. It's also quite intuitive.
What needs improvement?
Integration with other tools. Smartsheet itself is good and not costly, but integration could enhance project plan management. For example, updating the plan with the help of triggers from other tools.
There isn't much automation at this time. Improving flexibility in creating and updating plans dynamically would be helpful. There's not much scope for automation right now.
For how long have I used the solution?
I have been using it for a year.
What do I think about the stability of the solution?
I would rate the stability an eight out of ten. Keep in mind, it's only a project planning tool, which is SaaS. It's a single terminal; there's not much else to it.
What do I think about the scalability of the solution?
Scalability is good, but you have to purchase a license for every user. We have licenses for 50 users. It was a small project, and we wanted something simple and effective.
I would rate it an eight out of ten.
Which solution did I use previously and why did I switch?
I used Clarity. It's very costly and meant for a huge scale. It's not suitable for a small project that only needs a planning tool.
How was the initial setup?
The initial setup is very straightforward.
What about the implementation team?
It can be done in-house. There's not much specialized knowledge needed.
What was our ROI?
It was good with project delivery times and cost savings. It was mainly to communicate project plan changes and updates across the board.
There are multiple ways of using it, and it's cheap. If there's a change in the plan, we update it, and it automatically notifies stakeholders.
It's a subscription model and a very effective way of planning any project. You pay about $25 per month for each user. If you want to integrate with other tools, it will not work. But if you just need a planning tool, it's a low-cost and effective option.
What's my experience with pricing, setup cost, and licensing?
There's a trial version and a free version. But if you need additional features, you have to pay. Each license costs a decent amount, $25 per month or something.
What other advice do I have?
It lacks integration. If someone is looking for a standalone project planning tool, I would recommend it. But if you want to integrate with other dynamic activity trackers, like Jira, I would suggest using something else.
