Smartsheet is a great tool!
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is very easy to use. I use it to manage my capital project budgets and schedules. I also work with consultants that use it to help us track project plan reviews. My favorite feature is the ability to add files and comments to individual rows. I also like the ability to automatically create row drop-downs that help me consolidate reports and spreadsheet views.
What do you dislike about the product?
I would like more functionality regarding emailing to sheets. I have the outlook add-in, but I havent found it very useful because it is slow to load and implement.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
There are two main features I love about Smartsheet, the first is the ability to add files and comments to specific rows. The second is the ability to automatically create row drop downs. Both of these features make Smartsheet a better tool than Microsoft Excel for managing project budgets and schedules.

What do you dislike about the product?
It's a great tool but not very intuitive and is somewhat complex.
By having countless options to do the same thing but in a different way, we end up getting complicated with simple tasks, I believe that it should have more support to know all the functionalists and videos on Youtube teaching in all languages.

Automation and creating reports from project data is HUGE timesaver.
What do you like best about the product?
Consolidating data from multiple sheets into dedicated dashboards or reports has dramatically improved work efficiency. I like the time-saving features, as Smartsheet helps me create various unique reports to track multiple projects and tasks simultaneously. What sets it apart from other software solutions is that it allows users to add many tasks/files/details at once effortlessly. Besides, the boards can be easily shared with unauthorized (e.g., partners) users without additional costs.
What do you dislike about the product?
Building portfolio estimations and metrics with complex formulas and implementing automatic calculations for dashboards can be time-consuming, which is a significant drawback of Smartsheet. Moreover, the inability to schedule automatic updates for reports and dashboards is another aspect that I find frustrating. Changes or "automation" cannot be reflected in reports until the required sheet is opened.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet has been instrumental in managing workloads and completing multiple tasks simultaneously. My team can now keep track of various ongoing or upcoming tasks and goals, allowing directors and managers to always stay on top of team activities.
Positive Experience, Easy to get Started
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet helps to organize information similar to Excel or other spreadsheet data tracking software. The ease of sharing information across team members and to different devices is one of the best perks. Keeping task lists, action items, and general project logs in 1 place across many users saves time and streamlines efforts.
What do you dislike about the product?
Sometimes the simplicity of Smartsheet can be its downfall. However, there are many great tutorials on how to customize or increase your knowledge to use more of the tools offered with the program. I sometimes find it frustrating that simple tasks are not intuitive along with icons that may not be familiar in certain menus.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Mainly, Smartsheet aids in streamling task management and overall project management workflows. It is used to collaborate between team members and project consultants to review upcoming milestones, action items, due dates, and general tracking.
Smartsheet delivers
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet has allowed us to create an ecosystem to track and visualize project status. The ability to have a single page feed multiple dashboards, as well as having dashboards informed by different sheets, has been a game-changer.
We've also improved the utilization of trackers, increased the consistency of meeting deadlines, and provided up-to-date information by leveraging the automation features available. The wide assortment of templates mean we don't have to build anything from scratch, which has saved us countless human hours.

What do you dislike about the product?
Overall, we've been pleased with Smartsheet. I wish we could utilize more advanced formulas like I can in Excel. However, the convenience of team members not having to be as savvy to utilize formulas or scripts to automate largely outweighs this problem.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet helps us solve support requests through the entire project life-cycle. We're able to roll up to various dashboards, minimizing email back and forth when teams need updates. It's solved the issue of tracking people down when we need updates; they are automatically reminded when they haven't inputted the necessary information. This alone has saved us a substantial amount of time.
Versatile Tool with Easy Setup, Minor Customization Limits
What do you like best about the product?
I use Smartsheet for a lot of things like project trackers, timelines, inventory management, asset management, content trackers, and even run of shows. It's easy to use in many cases and allows us to share sheets easily with people both within and outside of our organization. Smartsheet makes it easy to gather information in forms and automate it as well. I really like the ability to create dashboards to curate information visually. It's valuable for managing multiple projects simultaneously, grouping related sheets, and for presentations when we need to showcase data and information. The initial setup was very easy.
What do you dislike about the product?
It has some limitations for customization. Customization of the sheets toolbar is limited, you can only make certain changes to the whole row versus individual cells and vice versa. I think it lacks a little in the timeline aspect as well, in order to automize it.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use Smartsheet for project trackers, timelines, and inventory management. It solves management and tracking issues and simplifies sharing sheets. It helps gather information, create dashboards, and automate tasks, which is valuable for managing multiple projects and presentations.
Great program, easy to use
What do you like best about the product?
I like how we can upload documents, photos and everyone on our team has access to them no matter which work site they are on. It is also very easy to create graphs and charts to show how we are tracking month to month
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be difficult to login on certain web browsers and it can take several attempts sometimes.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I am unaware of any problems that are being solved at this point in time.
A super powerful tool once you get the basics down
What do you like best about the product?
I've been really impressed with how powerful Smartsheet is. Especially when your trying to deploy a process across many users, it makes standardizing things super easy. I also liked how you can have a sheet that is the source of truth for information but then pull that data in on other sheets where it's relevant.
What do you dislike about the product?
The learning curve is pretty steep at first. I think it depends on how many templated sheets your organization puts together as that helps give you a starting place. It has also taken some getting used to being that there aren't tabs. It makes it a little more difficult having to link to every sheet you might want to navigate to.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It solves having to share out sheets for every functional area that teams are using a particular tool. It allows you to set up as an administrator and have everyone work off their own versions. This saves a lot of time in getting something out at scale.
Easy out-of-the-box solution with many many features
What do you like best about the product?
I find it sleek and easy to use, especially with little or no training from the start. It's similar enough to Excel or Google Sheets so it makes sense to others as well. I think the trainings & webinars done by our company's Smartsheet CSM are very valuable.
What do you dislike about the product?
I find the sharing of sheets aspect to be a little confusing. Especially if I'm trying to find a sheet from my company that should be public. I'd like it to be easier to search and discover valuable public sheets in my org.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I mostly use Smartsheet as a way to track my projects from a high level and provide visibility to cross-functional teams. Similar to how I used to use Trello, Smarthseet organizes my work into tiles that I can progress through stages. It also has an easy way to add notes and add collaborators if needed.
Reviewing Smartsheet Account
What do you like best about the product?
The most helpful thing about Smartsheet is that multiple people are able to work on a document at one time. Unlike Excel or other programs where you can only have one person working in it at once, Smartsheet allows for better team collaboration and an enhanced user experience
What do you dislike about the product?
I think the initial most difficult thing to get used to when using Smartsheet is the differences between it and other programs like Excel. I wish that there were more readily available training programs, or a more basic support team that was able to assist.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The biggest issue that we were trying to solve when looking into switching over to Smartsheet was finding a way that our project teams could all have access to and edit documents in live time together.
