rewarding, easy, great community assistence
What do you like best about the product?
When I first started using it I was a beginner but it didn't take long for me to get the hang of it, soon after more ideas flowed and the impact has been incredible.
Automations, reminders and alerts are our key – taking care of the mundane we all forget. These not only helped us save a significant amount of money but also greatly reduced errors. In fact, some areas are now nearly error-free, which is remarkable.
It’s very user friendly with only basic MS Office like knowledge required, especially if wanting to use cross sheet formulas – these are amazing for reporting and data collection.
During Covid Smartsheet allowed us to operate business as usual with no loss of productivity, laptop or Mobile App access a breeze. Given that it’s all online too I’m flawed that it’s never once gone down! Amazing.
The Smartsheet community is amazing, their exceptional in support. Their responsiveness is fast with many offers to assist, and the solutions they provide are truly exceptional. The best part? It's all available for free! This level of support is nothing short of inspiring and adds even more value to an already outstanding platform. If you're considering Smartsheet for your business, I can't recommend it highly enough.

What do you dislike about the product?
Recent backend changes have introduced a new search feature to the 'Move to sheet' automation, requiring us to search for sheets individually instead of using the previous tree structure. This change seems a backwards move when managing a significant number of sheets (we have 73) Previous user-friendly method showed all sheets in a tree system and much better.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Communication across various business units and involving the right people at the right stages is a critical aspect. Smartsheet has played a pivotal role in streamlining this process. Sales to Design, getting all the right information is critical, Form access and mandatory fields mean we now get what we need.
Construction realm coordinate between members and dispatch is greatly enhanced. Automated "request update" actions ensure that not only are materials ordered well in advance but also that the orders are received at the warehouse! – something so simple as a remote print is now confirmed as received, brilliant.. External Contractors can see what we have them booked on, dates, times, duration by referring to their dashboards, contributing to a smoother workflow.
With new sale activations from reps fed through a form has led to improved contract payment terms accuracy upon activation. In cases where this step is overlooked, the "update request" automation prompts sales to correct. This simple gathering of right data has significantly increased our deposit cash intake from 20% to an impressive 46.5%, much to the delight of our finance team.

Is very useful for make simple automation process
What do you like best about the product?
The best of smartsheet is the automation process that we can make for a company, because is simple to use for the users, is easy to configurate, is visually aceptable. I like best of smartsheet that usually they are trying to incorporate new features for improve the system.
What do you dislike about the product?
For me, the visualization part of smartsheet, for me is not easy to make a visualization as is easy in Power BI or Tableau. I think taht it could be a point to improvement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The automation of workflows, we was trying to solve the problem of not getting some approvals by mail all the time and to have the control on how many request we have to manage per week, per month, etc.
Good tool for charts and tracking projects
What do you like best about the product?
I really liked the Jira to smartsheet connector. I used this for my team to track trends for an enternal IT Service desk. I was able to pull in Jira ticket data based on topics, totals, status, etc. I used this data to create easy to understand charts which made it easier for our business teams to understand what types of issues we are seeing the most. This helped us then figure out where process/feature improvements should be developed. We also used smartsheets to track progress for different in flight projects and assign reminders on what is needed next and who to follow up with.
What do you dislike about the product?
The process for manipulating data in order for the chart to actually read it can be clunky. It is also not always very clear what is needed to be updated in order to have the chart read the data correctly. If a function does not work, sometimes it is not clear what needs to be updated or where the logic breaks.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The main problem that Smarthseet solves for us is the ability to display Jira data in a readable and digestable way. The widgets that come with Jira are not very user friendly and very limited in their ability to provide usable information at a high level.
Smart... sheets!
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is a great all around tool for automation, data collection and visualization, as well as team organization. Forms and sheets are intuitive to build. Converting between different views is a huge strength here, grid, calendar, cards, etc are all flexible depending on what someone wants to see.
What do you dislike about the product?
The chart building in the dashboard builder is not as intuitive as other systems like Adobe Workfront. It should be more drag and drop and flexible with how you arange the groupings of the data. There are not great resourcing and capacity management options for teams that do not use Smartsheet to project manage all work. From Demos of Smartsheet Data Shuttle and Table, it only seems to be able to add new data but not look out for any data that was removed in an upload.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet is solving the need to be more automated in our communications across an internal digital product development agency. As a central operations team, we use Smartsheet to automate reminders, obtain request approvals on various processes (travel, training, language translations) as well as track our team's work and plan communications/deadlines on a collaborative calendar. Smartsheet has saved us time in sending out manual reminders and allows us to be more transparent in our workflows.

Marketing planning and scheduling
Easy to use for tracking your programs
What do you like best about the product?
For me the biggested upside with Smartsheets is the ability to easily share program schedules from a Cloud location, allowing multiuple people the ability to see my updates in real time and not having to email or share local copies of a program file.
What do you dislike about the product?
There are no easy methods of doing a roll back on a file if you want to view previous schedules.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being able to share schedules across a distrubted organization is simplcty and ease.
Smartsheets for Learning and Development Metrics
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheets enable me to collect and report data from pre and post learning and development activities. I appreciate the ability to create custom reports from multiple sheets, relevant to various audiences.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like to see more options in Forms that enable them to be used as a survey. In particular, I'd like to be able to create a table in forms with two fields--one for the text and one for a response. I would also like to see a dashboard wigit that combines both a table and a graph. This would improve communication and be inclusive for those that prefer to see data in a table and data in graph form. Another improvement would be the ability to add a trend line to a bar graph.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use smartsheets
User friendly project management tool
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful part of smartsheet is the ability to put into practice without the need for downloading and dealing with microsoft project. Its very intuitive for staff to pick up and includes most major features needed for a gantt chart tool. Especially in times of hyrbid work environments, its very helpful
What do you dislike about the product?
Relying on a web-based tool is risky. There are some limitations to the user configurations and formatting. The cost is can quickly ballon but overall its worth it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Writing laboratory and maintenance schedules across multiple sites and multiple users. Also it is used in gantt chart planning to visualize the schedule and critical path. We have also used some of the templates for employee reviews and request forms
