Mostly Great
What do you like best about the product?
I like that you can create forms, dashboards/visuals, create Gantt charts, make lists, and use the platform to make doing business externally a little easier with its ease of use.
What do you dislike about the product?
I HATE that you cannot upload Excel files with tabs of information in one go. You have to upload each sheet individually which makes the process all the more aggravating. Also, when sorting through lists, if you have multiple lists on one page, formatting is very easily messed up.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It's helping us create visuals to go with some of the data with collect. The visuals aid in the understanding of our data for our stakeholders. We're also able to create forms and share them externally so that our users can give us feedback.

Versatile Tool
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet provides a variety of customizable pages to organize, communicate and report data, and offers a straightforward interface for sharing and controlling access with multiple users. It is an excellent project management tool applicable to a wide variety of business purposes. Its lack of some sophisticated features included in some other project management tools is offset by its fast learning curve, flexibility, and ease of implementation.
What do you dislike about the product?
Those experienced in working with MS Excel may find the more limited feature set of Smartsheet spreadsheets a hindrance, and using the Smartsheet interface for functions that are similar between those programs will take a little time to learn. However, many/most business applications for Smartsheet will not require the more sophisticated (and time-consuming to master) capabilities of Excel.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Managing information and projects that requires input and updates from multiple employees. Keeping all project participants updated in real time regarding changes to information and status of assigned tasks.
Good tool for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
Project Management tools, the main page is like Project, but I like that it is collaborative and a live document, also the reminders by mail that you can automate are a great tool
What do you dislike about the product?
The Dynamic view, I haven't understood the reason, but with global files, I can not edit directly in the sheet but in Dynamic view and is really complicated with large files and also takes a lot of time each update
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Being a Project Collaboration all in one file, for example in the past we used Project, so each update was a new "PDF" and we had a lot of versions saved in carpets, now we just access the link and we know there is the last update, also even users without licens can consult timings, before that was the reason we needed to print as PDF to share with all the people involved even without a Project License.
Also notify responsibles in an automated way is very simple

User-friendly, cloud-based way to share spreadsheet information!
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is a great resource for tracking data to be shared across multiple users and even multiple companies. It is so user-friendly and well-formatted that I use it even for spreadsheets I don't need to share with others.
What do you dislike about the product?
There isn't a lot I don't like about Smartsheet. I think that the biggest issue is that I don't know what I don't know and there are probably ways I could be using it that would help me more but I'm unaware of them. It's also at times minimally temperamental when working within cells (copy/paste, etc.) that you have to get used to doing just slightly differently.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am a recruiter with multiple people involved in my hiring efforts due to the nature of our process. This allows me to communicate from start to end and assign tasks to the proper person at the right time, etc.
One of the best Project Management Tool
What do you like best about the product?
1. Low entry barrier - Smartsheet is a combination of Excel and any other basic routing tool, which are both familiar to many teams.
2. Rich of templates - Easy to identify the required sheet and use it.
3. We use it from End to End - Starting from preparing the Roadmaps to handling operations to generating capacity reports

What do you dislike about the product?
1. Sometimes I feel Smartsheet is a bit slow.
2. We would need the option to restrict deleting rows. In the current setup, anybody with Editor access can delete rows, which is the one downside I guess.
3. No option to track time or calculate time.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
1. Easy to sync roadmaps between multiple teams or multiple sheets.
2. We generate a Capacity report and dashboard, which help us a lot in terms of resource management.
3. Split or combine the data and create a view based on user needs

Excel on Steroids
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is a great tool for teams as multiple users can use one sheet at the same time, and functionality to add images, comments, and most importantly, attachments, make it a vital tool for our team.
What do you dislike about the product?
Smartsheet can occasionally be glitchy and the Proofing system especially needs improving. It is one of the key tools our team uses, but could be improved by having proofing stages and more automation.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I know that the company has invested more in the WorkApps which would likely benefit my company but I have not conducted real reseach in to it. I also know that Brandfolder could be a problem solver for our company but we are already tied to a DAM system in a long contract.
Great software, easy to use!
What do you like best about the product?
It is quite user friendly and integrates well across the platform (ex: dashboards, reports, linking cells, etc.). The templates are helpful and it feels like a fancier version of excel. I use it as my homepage when I log in in the morning, for agenda/ meeting minutes, approval requests, financial trackers, calendars, etc. - it can be used in many different ways and I like that they can all speak/ link to each other easily.
What do you dislike about the product?
There's nothing I dislike but I would love to see more advancements in the dashboards. In addition, I wish we could save non-SmartSheet items in our SmartSheet folders so that you could save relevant documents in the same place however I appreciate that SmartSheet has the attachment feature within a smartsheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps us organize and track information in a simple way that can be read and easily understood across our organization - helps our teams collaborate more. It helps to save me time, especially the workflows feature as it sends email notifications when certain tasks are complete. It also helps me track historic information that I can then refer back to. It also allows us to share information externally through the publication feature so that we don't have to spend time re-creating an external version of the content.
Almost unlimited integrations and a vital documentation and communication tool!
What do you like best about the product?
The number of available integrations you can use is definitely Smartsheet's greatest advantage when compared to similar tools. As a project manager, I use Smartsheet to track project progress, team availability, and release preparation. Soon, I'm looking forward to utilizing other features, like dashboards and WorkApps, as soon as I have time to learn how those features function and what I need to do to set them up. I use Smartsheet every day at my job.
What do you dislike about the product?
Some of the integrations available within Smartsheet are challenging to set up initially. Fortunately, plenty of support documents and videos guide you through the entire setup.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet helps me to track project progress from sprint to sprint and accurately create more precise timelines for project planning. I also use Smartsheet to track and quickly reference team availability during sprint planning meetings to better estimate how much work can be accomplished during the sprint and which departments might need to plan for less work, given upcoming holidays or time off.
Simplifly process
What do you like best about the product?
It's so easy to build a form, you don't need to be an expert to be able to build a form, and this brings so much quality to our users based on the form submissions you are able to create the automation, which is a big plus.
Also started using Dynamic views and I was able to create a business process to be followed easily by my team and also provide the information from previous requests raised by our users.

What do you dislike about the product?
There are some functions that definitely need to be improved ASAP. Like the hyperlink feature, you cant choose if it will open in a new tab or the same, and this has different behaviours in embedded forms that you can not control. Also
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
An easy way to people submit a request for a team. Every SmartSheet we have, we can have a form interface to connect with our users with a very simple UI that does not need any specific training.
