Good project management capability, low data analytics for big data.
What do you like best about the product?
Project management. The tool is used for this purpose in our organization and helps us to monitor and manage our project accordingly. Its ability to work with google workspace is also really good
What do you dislike about the product?
lacks some data analytics capability or is too clunky when creating reports. The visuals created in the report are also not as visually appealing and do not have a lot of creative freedom.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
We manage a lot of projects and the functions made available in Smartsheet make it easy for us to track and manage these projects well. Combined with the connections it has to the Google Workspace we use is a big plus as well.
Google for project plans only

The project plannin g functions are amazing
What do you dislike about the product?
it is very useful for project planning but not robust enough to be a true Agency platform
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The project planning tools are very useful. I like that I can share a plan with someone who does not have an account.
Good experience but the training can be more intuitive
What do you like best about the product?
It is similar to excelsheet and relatively intuitive to learn. The dashboard could be useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
the training video sometimes doesnt respond to the clicks and is slow to respond. No way to fast track the learning. The training is really long.
The license/user access part is a bit confusing to explain to stakeholders.

Smartsheets Review
What do you like best about the product?
I like Smartsheets for the easy user capaility. Smartsheets easy user ability has allowed others in the compnay to build sheets, reports and dashboards to help organize and maintain data.
What do you dislike about the product?
I dont like the reporting capabilites very limited to any data pluging or creating forumula from reports. It must be in a sheet to do so which can be annoying
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheets is helping solving keeping track of Capex Budgets, project schdules and raid logs.
Useful scheduling software
What do you like best about the product?
Once you've got used to the way smartsheets works, it's a great tool for project management. It takes time to set up but worth investing the time up front.
What do you dislike about the product?
The time needed to set everything up, but once a template is set up, it's much quicker.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Time management and forecasting
Global Project Manager Review
What do you like best about the product?
Never have to worry about saving the document or Software crashing. The project plans are available at all times from any computer that is connected to the internet. In addition, the team members can view changes in live view without disrupting the workflow. Lastly, connecting multiple sheets with referencing them helps to navigate through multiple project programs in a faster and more efficient way
What do you dislike about the product?
The dashboard creations are very tedious. There is no resource requirement or management tracking tool incorporated like other platforms. Would like to see a feature for quickly calculating the resource requirements
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
The referencing of multiple documents connected to a product or portfolio help is
Merging versatility and robustness in work management
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet is great for working on projects. It helps to keep everything organized and is famous for managing work well. It's super useful for lining up everything you need for a project, like important dates and resources.
What do you dislike about the product?
A minor downside to Smartsheet is the lack of more advanced features like Gantt charts in the basic package. For businesses needing these features, it requires an upgrade, which may not be preferable for all.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Smartsheet is instrumental in promoting team collaboration and communication, which often pose a challenge in large projects. With its powerful sharing and real-time updating features, it fosters better coordination and eliminates the risk of information silos.
Smartsheet: The good and the not so good
What do you like best about the product?
Smartsheet makes it much easier to program similar features you'd want to incorporate on an excel type sheet. I like that it automatically allows for different views such as calendar and gantt charts. It's easy enough to link between sheets for more robust cross-referencing, and the automation features help save on programming time as well. I like all the template options available and although I haven't delved into every feature, if I spent more time with it, I'm sure there would be plenty of other features I would find useful.
What do you dislike about the product?
At one time Smartsheet used to load in seconds, for the past year though, it has been painfully slow, which makes me want to convert over to excel for some things. It used to be my go-to spreadsheet option, but now I feel like I need to pick and choose when to use it. It is also not great for collaborative work. I am currently using it to track many timelines, but when many people are using the same smartsheet, things quickly will get saved out of order. I don't know why it happens, but it is a real pain to have to correct. The last thing that I wish it had was a tab feature like excel where you can quickly reference other smartsheets instead of having to open a new window for each sheet. Having the ability to customize the look of the sheet by freezing rows to always have info at the top of a sheet or combining for a header type feel would also be nice, but I understand the limitations there because of how it functions.
What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
My department does not currently use any project management software like Asana or Monday, so I'm using Smartsheet to program the same functionality that I would get from a PM software. It helps with tracking timelines for projects, send reminders to people for when things are due, keep track of project status, track incoming requests, track employee vacation requests etc.
Great for scheduling and interactive working, but can be overwhelming
What do you like best about the product?
I really like that it allows for immediate updates and concurent use, it is rarely buggy and the scheduling function is great (I love the predecesors option). I like how customizable it is and the highlighting changes feature is a god send.
What do you dislike about the product?
It can be a bit overwhelming due to the many options. I personally like this, but if compared to something like Monday's which simlifies scheduling a lot more, it can be difficult to use without training and offputting to people not used to using spreadsheets for scheduling purposes.
i would also like it if it was possible to assign tasks to more than one person.

What problems is the product solving and how is that benefiting you?
Having oversight over an entirely product development schedule that involves multiple different departments, that everyone can edit and changes to timelines are immediately applied to the whole schedule is incredibly helpful to collaboration and time management.
It is also good for efficient assignment of tasks while also acting as a record of activities, especially if tasks are being requested by multiple people.
The template/shell function saves a lot of time and helps retain information and knowledge throughout personel turn over.
