Intuitive Resourcing View – The visual allocation grids make it really easy to see who is overbooked, underutilized, or available. Drag-and-drop scheduling feels natural compared to traditional spreadsheets.

Scenario Planning – You can run “what-if” scenarios for staffing and project timelines, which helps project managers make informed trade-offs before committing resources.

Integrated Time Tracking – Team members can log time directly against assignments, keeping resourcing data connected to actuals without needing a separate tool.

Portfolio-level Insights – Reports and dashboards show capacity, demand, and utilization across projects, making it easier for leadership to plan strategically and avoid bottlenecks.

Seamless Smartsheet Integration – Since it’s part of the Smartsheet ecosystem, it plugs right into broader project plans, dashboards, and workflows without a lot of manual duplication. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Limited Granularity

– It works very well at the project/role level, but it’s not as strong when you need detailed task-level resourcing or highly complex dependency management.

Reporting Constraints

– Built-in reporting is good for utilization and capacity, but more advanced/custom reporting sometimes requires workarounds or exporting data.

Time Tracking Adoption

– The time entry feature is simple, but adoption can be hit-or-miss; if people don’t log time consistently, utilization data can become unreliable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Our designers need to have a licence in order to move from RM back to Smartsheet. For example to view the Smartsheet listing from the link in RM. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Resource profiles can be customized, and the ability to create managed resources that do not count toward overall license costs is a significant plus when you're working with contractors or trying to do pipeline planning. The overall implementation for our team went well, as it is a straightforward view of timecards and worklists. Our team worked in the system daily. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Updating schedules or worklists is extremely tedious with the limited copy/paste functionality, and there is no ability to bulk update dates or push dates out based on dependencies. For projects that had lengthy worklists, one delay requires manual adjustment of all of the remaining tasks that are scheduled which became nearly impossible to manage. The customer support was generally responsive to an inquiry but largely unhelpful, and unable to assist with issues that arose. The system was a bit glitchy overall, too, sometimes creating duplicate scheduled tasks or not registering a task in someone's timecard, which could easily ruin someone's schedule. The schedule view was also hard to navigate as it is very clunky and slow to work with. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I would like to edit on screen resourcing Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The different ways to display like card view and grid view

How updates are show as the users enter data or complete tasks

Most views and layout is similar to other software I'm familiar with making it easy to use and setup

I am able to link different projects and view the information.

I have not yet disliked anything. Smartsheet is my top 1 Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It takes the data from Smartsheet Project Management. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not very intuitive tool to work with at the beginning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I use Smart Sheet to track the time I spend on each project, making it easy to see where my hours are allocated. I update my projects daily and submit them for approval from my manager to help customize my schedule. Smart Sheet’s integration with Sheets lets me export and reorganize the data, allowing me to focus on specific projects as needed. It’s been a great tool for optimizing project management and time efficiency. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I've recently noticed an issue with the Smart Sheet interface—certain options aren’t visible when trying to select them. To access those options, I’ve had to reduce the browser size, which is something I discovered when trying to add a "report something else option". Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Easy to use and connects all the relevant softwares into one place. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It's not collaborative in real time like Canva or Google Doc/Sheets etc. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Pros: Price, not the least expensive by overall value is there

Visually layed out for ease of entry and use

Overall good choice

Implementing the tool is easy Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Cons: The only con I can think of is that (unless) I am not able to figure out how to do it is that the ability to work with others simultaneously is not available. We often have to save then refresh to both see what we have updated. Seems like a easy ask but there mat be a reason for it. Just not sure. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It is very easy to use and very flexible. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
