Smartsheets in the work life
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheets allows you to automate and execute flawlessly within the workspace
What do you dislike about the product?
Only thing I do dislike is the complexity of trying to make formulas. Some of the formulas I'm use to does not work.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It saves me time by automating my daily tasks
Very handy Tool but not very intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet allows us to facilitate and organize a lot of internal business processes. It is very handy. I love that it's cloud based and that the messages are never lost, they always come to my email as notifications. It gives a good sense of connection with other coworkers and control.
What do you dislike about the product?
The interface instantly reminds you of Excel, which is great when you're new to Smartsheet. However, once you start working, you realize that what you know from Excel isn't helpful at all. Whatever you need is never easy or intuitive to find, and even Google isn't always helpful.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It helps organize and share projects data, business processes, it facilitates coworking. It's a great solution for remote work.
My Experience Using Smartsheet for Project Management
What do you like best about the product?
What I love about Smartsheet is how incredibly flexible and easy it is to use. It’s a lifesaver for managing all of our different projects and tasks in one place. It has that familiar spreadsheet feel, which makes it easy to jump right in, but it's packed with powerful collaboration and customization features that a normal grid just can't match.
What do you dislike about the product?
While Smartsheet is great overall, it can be a bit challenging to master. The basics are simple enough, but figuring out the more advanced tools can feel like a steep climb if you're not already used to this type of software.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The one thing that constantly trips me up in Smartsheet is that I can't just add another tab. It feels so natural to want to separate different sets of data within the same project, but you're confined to just one page. For teams that live and breathe in multi-tab spreadsheets, this can be a really tough adjustment.
Smartsheet useful for project management - as long as you are willing to learn
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is hugely adaptable, similar to excel but much better connected for project management. It has been really helpful in managing our project and keeping us on track for our twice weekly project update meetings.
What do you dislike about the product?
- It is not the easiest system to use and requires considerable training for non-project management staff, this has made it difficult to get the organisation to properly use it, for example guest users and those that don't use it regualry
- It has a lot of features but these are complex to master, I dont think I use it to its full capability. This is more difficult because the modular basis seems to put additional features, that would seem to improve ease of use, behind a paywall we cant justify paying for.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
It has been really helpful to keep track key dates in our reporting schedule and keep us on track.
a tool that simplifies management
What do you like best about the product?
The graphics are absolutely simple and intuitive, the number of tools available can meet every need, tagging colleagues with automated notifications, the comments section, the ease of adding and removing columns in a specific sheet, the ease of producing reports, the ease of sharing them, and the ability to export in Excel. The simplicity of creating different fields with different data types.
What do you dislike about the product?
I did not find it very easy to make all my sheets communicate with my main database. Creating a Gantt chart, it is difficult to make it interact with a data collection sheet.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I use it to manage all incoming projects, I record them on Smartsheet and the initial activities to be performed on them are automatically highlighted. I also use it to manage my team's activities, I schedule them, plan, and keep track of everything. My team is responsible for filling out fields duly prepared to track project data, and each person is responsible for their activity calendar. Tagging colleagues when their intervention is needed regarding a certain issue by writing the request in the comments section is extremely convenient because it allows for tracking the request and the response. Attaching files directly in the comments section is very useful because everything remains well tracked.
Smartsheet review
What do you like best about the product?
The smartsheet live is very good which allows multiple users to impact a spreadsheet / workflow. As a new user it is very similar to other spreadsheets
What do you dislike about the product?
I believe that for reporting and data analytics purposes Smartsheet should provide a more structured approach to ensure it is compatible with export into Excel to use for PowerBI. Smartsheet could be easier to use and be a user friendly spreadsheet resource.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Live Workflows, linking workflows from quoting to production to delivery.
Polished and usefull tool

Flexible, Reliable, and Easy to Use
What do you like best about the product?
What I like best about Smartsheet is how adaptable it is. It works for simple task tracking but also supports complex projects with automations and dashboards. It’s great for keeping everyone on the same page
What do you dislike about the product?
The only drawback I’ve found is that it takes a little time to get familiar with all the features. Once you’re past that, it’s very effective
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet helps solve the problem of scattered project information. Instead of juggling spreadsheets, emails, and chat threads, everything is in one place. It keeps tasks, deadlines, and updates visible to the whole team, which reduces miscommunication and saves time. The automation features also cut down on manual follow-ups, so we can focus more on actually moving projects forward
Underwhelming Experience with Smartsheet
What do you like best about the product?
I find the setup process of Smartsheet straightforward and manageable. It was not difficult to get started, which helped in adapting to the tool quickly.
What do you dislike about the product?
I am not satisfied with Smartsheet because I can't assign more than one person to an activity with different time allocations. This limitation forces me to duplicate activities, which is inefficient. Additionally, compared to Microsoft Project, my initial feeling and overall experience with Smartsheet have been less favorable. The features that Microsoft Project offers seem more suited to my needs, therefore I do not see enough benefits or distinctive features in Smartsheet that would motivate me to consider purchasing it again.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
I find no benefit in using Smartsheet, as it lacks flexibility in assigning activities to multiple people with different time allocations, forcing me to duplicate entries.
