AI Generated Summary
AI-generated. Powered by real user reviews.
- G2 reviewers report that Smartsheet excels in providing a comprehensive project management experience, combining the familiarity of spreadsheets with advanced features like customizable workflows and automation. Users appreciate the ability to create clear dashboards for better visibility and real-time collaboration, making it a powerful tool for teams.
- Users say that Avaza stands out for its exceptional customer support, with many praising the responsiveness of real human representatives. This level of support is particularly beneficial for small businesses that may require more hands-on assistance as they navigate project management and time tracking features.
- According to verified reviews, Smartsheet's implementation process is often highlighted as quick and intuitive, allowing users to get up and running with minimal hassle. Reviewers mention that the platform's wide range of tools feels straightforward, which is crucial for teams looking to enhance their productivity without a steep learning curve.
- Reviewers mention that while Avaza offers a user-friendly interface and effective timesheet features, it may not provide the same depth of project management capabilities as Smartsheet. Users appreciate the customization options for timesheets, but some feel that the overall project management tools could be more robust.
- G2 reviewers highlight that Smartsheet's extensive feature set, including task prioritization and dependency management, is a significant advantage for mid-market companies. Users find these features essential for managing complex projects, whereas Avaza's focus on small business needs may limit its appeal for larger teams.
- Users say that while Avaza's pricing model is attractive, especially with a free entry-level option, Smartsheet's investment is justified by its higher overall satisfaction ratings and feature richness. Many users feel that the value provided by Smartsheet's advanced functionalities outweighs the cost, particularly for teams that require more sophisticated project management solutions.
