"Good Sharable Spreadsheet"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

The biggest thing I dislike about this program is how updates into the spreadsheet do not automatically save. I have had people update the sheets and assume it would save since it is done online, and then get back to see that all of their work has disappeared. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Great spreadsheet program that has a lot of templates that can make work efficient and organized. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Great way to keep track of company resources and assets!"

5/5

What do you like best about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

I am impressed with the usability, ease, and ability to make our resource management as detailed as we want or need, or it can be elementary for some needs. I like that it gives us the flexibility to adapt the tool to our ever-changing business needs. What we need today could change at the drop of a hat, and SmartSheet Resource Management is the go-to in any scenario! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

I can't come up with a dislike. I can adapt the sheet to be whatever I need it to be. I can add or subtract columns; I can choose what and how those columns are filled; I can choose what to do with my sheet, so, in all honesty, I do not have anything I dislike.

"The ultimate integration"

4.5/5

What do you like best about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

The integration between Smartsheets and Resource Management allows me to view project progress on one easy to use platform rather than having to view 2 different softwares. This allows me to see real time updates and gauge deadlines Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I wish that the time entry user interface would have an easy way of clearing out estimates for the day rather than all entries on the sheet. Keyboard shortcuts to allow for quick entries and navigation through the different lines would be helpful Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

5/5

What do you like best about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

"Needs an update"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

I only use Smart Sheet to submit tickets on and follow up with customers once management has made an update. Everything I touch before sending it to management is great. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

When you have multiple tickets being returned to an agent to follow up on the layout is hard to read. All tickets should be sent back to an agent as 1 ticket and not multiple. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Difficult to use depending on the customized set-up"

2.5/5

What do you like best about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

I like that RM automatically saves my time when I document it throughout the day, without erasing. It is easy to make updates. It also shows how much time you should be documenting according to client contracts, which is helpful in staying organized and accountable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Resource Management by Smartsheet?

Trying to navigate the system to find the timesheet portion is difficult. Smartsheet allows for a list of customizable workspaces, projects and services. Each selection will take you to a different Smartsheet, similar to an excel file. Finding the right project/service may be easier to find depending on how it is set up by the user. I wish the menu on the left would list the spreadsheets needed daily. There is a section for recent files, but I do not see the most recent smartsheet I have used.
