## Smartsheet Reviews
  ### 1. Experience on Smartsheet

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Automotive | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 29, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Gantt chart and schedule. Task duration and predecessors.
Text editing as color, bold, italic and font size. Copy of task,

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Task assignment can only be assigned to people having a valid email address.  I would like to be able to assign them to random group or people as Team Marketing, or Electrical Designer.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use it exactly as MS Project, and share it through my organization and collaborative members.

  ### 2. my smart sheet review

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Matthew  S. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

The ability to add files to the individual lines.    I love being able to save bids this way.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Some of the organizations could be better

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Organization of bids has been much easier.

  ### 3. Great Online Collaboration Tool with many functionalities

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Automotive | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 26, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Functions:
Most useful functions for us are those who support the collaboration. E.g. Automations --> used for wrong user inputs etc.
The tool has also a great integration in other tools like Power BI (Connectors)
Our Sheet admins also likes the summarize functions very much - they said it is great to have one place where all relevant informations are collected and presented together.

Usage:
All in all the tool had a great overview and deliveres a perfect user experience. Though there are so many different functionalities, due to the tabs and the great overview it was easy to find anything you need.
What we also like very much is the design and the colors. The tool had a very beautiful look and feel and our users like to work with it very much.
And also perfect for our and probably many other customers is the customization probabilities: you can send emails or trigger field-warnings etc. in many different scenarios, much better than many other tools can do.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

there are some greater distinctions regarding license topics: 
We´ve had some premium licenses and some standard end users. For example Version History / Activity log wasn´t available for everyone - that would have been perfect for us.
Also IFTTT integration for some topics would bee nice.

But apart from that there is nothing that we dislike.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

used for organizational wide shared sheets and colaboration work for different use cases.
As well as a data basis for some reports in Power BI.
Also very great for is was the Automations functionality: Sending Users automatic email notifications when a Smartsheet was edited, or some inputs are wrong etc.
We also use the template apps for some predefined projects or campaigns.

  ### 4. Why do we need a more complicated excel?

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** George W. | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 14, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Working with other teams and other processes makes this a secure tool. I like the collaborative nature of the tool.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

I need to save after EVERY keystroke? Stop it. I struggle to understand why we need another excel

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Helping work between several groups.

  ### 5. Good for beginners

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** May 25, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It is easy for beginners to get started, as Smartsheet offers a range of templates and training resources. Teams can share and edit sheets easily. Workflows are easy to implement and make processes more efficient.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

There are many limitations; I often find many requests for specific features or functions that are never addressed by Smartsheet.  It requires too many things that feel like workarounds to achieve simple goals (think "helper sheets").  Calendar views appear rudimentary.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartsheet enables transparency of information across and within teams in a virtual environment. Having one source of truth is more efficient than emailing multiple versions of spreadsheets,

  ### 6. i find SmartSheet challenging to use

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Insurance | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 28, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

There is sufficient detail on the logs and easy to create logs

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It is hard to track changes made to logs ...

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

it is allowing us to list all the issues we have with projects in the business

  ### 7. Ok product, depending on use

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Rachel C. | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 09, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet is easy to use and a great place to share documents internally.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It can be really frustrating to get data back out of smartsheet or integrate with other products.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It allows us to make data available publicly on our website and be maintained by multiple users within our organization.

  ### 8. Not the right tool for our agency's needs

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Chelsea G. | Director of Operations, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 27, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet worked great for organizing and writing organic social media posts for our clients! The extremely straightforward layout helped us build, write, organize and send content for approval.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

We tried to run all of our agency's projects out of smartsheet - the way we were using it was not user friendly, it was incredibly difficult to keep track of due dates and communication within the platform. I do want to iterate, the way we had it set up was not conducive to the nature of our work, it might not be the tool's fault! 

However, the customer service was severely lacking as well, so it was difficult for us to troubleshoot or receive much guidance from their team.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartsheet was a good tool in the beginning stages of our agency operations. We needed a straight forward platform to manage content - mainly social media posts. It was perfect for social media content production. Once our agency started leaning toward video production, smartsheet was no longer the tool for us and we switched to clickup.

  ### 9. Smartsheet

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Works well for collaborations, used to have others fill out data.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Wish it had more tools that excel includes

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having users manually input data given with data validation options.

  ### 10. Look for Betters

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Hospital & Health Care | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 26, 2023

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet has good automation features and formulas.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Terrible customer service. There is no transparency on pricing. They will charge you based on your face.
We are an enterprise company with an enterprise plan with a few add ons they don't keep to their agreed prices and always make problems with trials and all types of manipulations.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It is an excellent management platform for tracking and following tasks and data.

  ### 11. A lot of glitches for something that worked a lot like Excel

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** aisha f. | Digital Experience Manager, Social Media, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 06, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I know the reason we use it was because we had multiple users in our group entering in queries and requests and there was a form we could create and manage the information. I also liked that you could attach a file to a row and comment on a specific row.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

The fact that our content would sometime disappear or not be saved especially when multiple users may be working in smartsheet at the same time.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

A form captured the data we needed to have to manage a new content request.

  ### 12. My organization and smartsheet don't provide the proactive training I need to make this helpful

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Avi T. | Manager, Risk Adjustment & Medicare Advantage Operations, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It puts my project management spreadsheets online. It *sometimes* is easy to assign tasks to my team. It seems like it could be helpful if I knew how to actually use it.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Unbelievably frustrating interface without proper training. The columns inexplicably can't be deleted sometimes. For some sheets, I am not allowed to @ or "tag" users in my organization when I want to assign tasks. I get these extremely complicated pop ups asking me to configure settings that I have no time or patience to learn. Nobody from my organization actually sat me down to help me walk through my questions.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Get the training you need ASAP - it's extremely tough to use from the get go and not intuitive to learn on your own (which is what I like and hope for; I think software should be intuitive)

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having stale excel trackers and not being able to assign tasks to specific people. Timelines in static excel charts quickly become out of date. Also nice to find smartsheet easily online instead of digging around my desktop for an excel sheet.

  ### 13. Great but pricey

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Higher Education | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 24, 2017

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet is a robust project management tool for those who are technically savvy and knowledgeable about project management. Features that allow us to link sheets, examine workload, and automate reporting on tasks are great.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

We ended up switching away from Smartsheet for a number of reasons. The primary reason was price. It is significantly more expensive than the other options we reviewed. It is very robust, but most of those features were not useful to team members who were not directly in project management roles. For those familiar with excel, the interface is great but for many it just isn't as intuitive as other solutions. 
Finally, I love that you can access sheets on the app, but updating sheets can be clunky.  For example, when a task is finished, it isn't possible to just recheck the box to show that the task is complete...the entire task opens up and has to be updated....I wish it were a bit more streamlined.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

We loved Smartsheet at first because it is quite robust. However, it was not intuitive for many team members and so wasn't fully adopted and the price was just prohibitive.

I would recommend Trello for a lower priced, easy to implement solution. For those needing a more robust PM tool that is affordable and feature rich, I would recommend ClickUp.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

As a project manager I loved the level of organization Smartsheet brought to our team. However, the price ended up being a deal breaker and it was probably too complex a tool to be fully adopted by all team members.

  ### 14. Redundant, hard to collaborate, easy to generate misleading data

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Biotechnology | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 03, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Indentation of data within columns is excellent.  

More rigidly typed data can be better than unstructured cells in a typical spreadsheet like google sheets or excel.  Collaboration is better than excel but worse than google sheets.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Collaboration - it LOOKS like online collaboration like google sheets, but in practice, it is easy to step on each others' changes.  If one user is changing things, those things don't show up on another user's view, so you can't, say, have five editors working on a sheet together in a meeting.  We work in this collaborative way often, and Smartsheet makes that difficult.

A bigger problem, though, is with the premise of the Gantt chart view.  My organization uses these charts for scheduling projects.  This use leads to misleading results because the Gantt views are not correctly resource-aware.  If I set up task dependencies, the Gantt view will auto-compute dates.  These dates don't understand things like team capacity.  Either you can have perfectly serial execution (each team can only be assigned ONE thing at a time) or parallel (each team or resource can have ANY number of things at a time).  Neither of these dates is correct, but because the tool generates PRECISE dates, people seeing the chart will assume that they are correct as written.  The tool leads our organization to make mistakes in a way that a different tool would not.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Unless you really know what you're doing, Smartsheet is the wrong tool.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use Smartsheet primarily for scheduling projects.  When the project schedule is well maintained and vigilantly policed for changes and problems, the schedule is very clear.  When not as well maintained, the schedule is misleading.

  ### 15. It really doesn't improve productivity as well as our team hopes. also its expensive

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Staffing and Recruiting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 23, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

The ability to send automated notifications. also dashboard functions as well as the ability to review stuff within a calendar view.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

The filtering and ability to rearrange and sort data.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

its not doing anything that Excel cant do. We had it implemented by someone who doesn't actually know how to use it. 

we could do with a  lot of training to learn how to use it properly

  ### 16. Smartsheet for consultants 

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 25, 2017

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

As a consultant, I tried out Smartsheet as an alternative to file-sharing an Excel spreadsheet with multiple users. We used Smartsheet as a living document to track project management tasks and timelines. One benefit is not having to be concerned over version control, since multiple users can collaborate on the sheet at one time. I also enjoyed the ability to easily attach documents to assigned rows. Gantt charts are incredibly easy to set up for an easy visual of project timelines. 

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet is certainly not meant to be a replacement to Excel. However, even for simpler projects the functionality is quite limited. We ultimately decided to stop using Smartsheet because we did not realize major benefits compared to collaborating on an Excel file using a file-sharing platform. I did not find this platform to be much easier than using Excel, which would have influenced our decision. I also do not believe this platform would be a good solution for larger companies. It's a better fit for students or small teams of professionals. 

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Bare in mind that Smartsheet is not intended to replace Excel functionality and is more project-management focused.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used Smartsheet as a living document to track project management tasks. However, again it did not provide enough benefits beyond Excel that made it worth keeping our account. I would only recommend this platform to someone who is not currently using Excel primarily and would only use it for small jobs such as task-tracking. I believe it would be a better fit for students than professionals. 

  ### 17. Doesn't seem terribly useful

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

The upside is being able to disseminate a Smartsheet both internally and externally to gather inputs/data/etc

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It has relatively limited functionality beyond data collection. It's basically like Google Sheets with way fewer functions.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartsheets solves our need to collect data from external parties.

  ### 18. Difficult / clinky to use

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Gambling & Casinos | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 14, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Cloud-based and communal editing, and that's about it.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It's very much Microsoft project in the cloud, but without any better ease for use. Managing resources, linking Jira tickets, and changing anything around was a bit of a chore. I prefer to use a roadmap tool, than this.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Easy Jira use. Create pipeline to make generating project plans easier / simplier. It's still classic Microsoft Project.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Wanted to create a project plan, waterfall and agile, to show progress on development and administrative projects. The jira link didn't update the sheet well / smoothly, so it was just better to manually update between the two platforms.

  ### 19. It feels like a clunky version of Excel or Sheets

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 16, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I am honestly not a fan.  There's nothing about it that feels like an advantage over other spreadsheet tools. It seems to have nice graphing & charts, but it takes a lot of work to figure out how to use them.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It isn't intuitive to navigate. From what I understand, things like pivot tables are modules that are only available for purchase and not included.  It's not easy to color code things. Another issue I just noticed is that it's telling me there's a new version of Smartsheet available and that I need to refresh.  I refresh & get the same message.  Over and over and over.  It's a web-based tool.  Why does it not refresh itself?

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I am so sorry to say this, but I've used Smartsheet in two different companies now and wished they'd just use a standard spreadsheet. I cannot figure out what the benefit of using Smartsheet over another spreadsheet solution is.  It feels like it's harder to navigate but has fewer tools.

  ### 20. Pretty steeply price fancy Excel.

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** June 09, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

UI is pretty nice, allows for pretty simple graphs.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Cost, product is very very over priced. The feature set you get for the price you spend is just not enough. Lacking simple things like Single Sign on, without spending WAY too much.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Really think hard about what you are trying to solve with Smartsheet.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Giving some teams an easier shared Excel sheet to work with customers.

  ### 21. It's not bad, but not what I would go with

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Transportation/Trucking/Railroad | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 25, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It's decent as a project management tool, cool color schemes

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

A lot. It's just not intuitive to the user. Unfortunately, most of us are "Excel Trained" in the sense that it created a foundation for spreadsheets and formulas. Of course, there is a disparity between Excel and Smartsheets in the sense that they are two different products, but I feel that it is so foreign like a language I never heard of. Make writing formulas as easy as excel and replicate many of those tried & true key formulas.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The organized data source that we can trust like our bible where multiple collaborators can work towards the same goal for a project, but with different responsibilities. It's good for collaborating but if you have any sort of data tables to input or manipulate like a BI system, forget it.

  ### 22. A decent MProject alternative with minimum features

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Aviation & Aerospace | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 30, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It's relatively quick to start up a new smartsheet gaant chart.  The hotkeys are useful for speedy filling out and changing the levels of groups.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Unfortunately there's a lot this program can't do.  There's no backwards linking, so to determine the start point of a project you have to hack it together using negative time delays.  There's no easy way to setup repeatable subtasks and change them for multiple components other than copy pasting.   And copying too and from excel/googlesheets is always a bit of a nightmare.  Additionally the grouping system of files and who is able to access what is confusing, and you regularly have to invite people to see new smartsheets despite the settings that should have let them see it already.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Start with a simple project you understand well before working on more complex projects. This will help you understand the capabilities of smartsheet before you get bogged down in the unknowns of your project.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The typical schedule and planning problems.  It's fine for finding quick insights, but longer duration use by teams is difficult to encourage.

  ### 23. Okay for some, not okay for complex projects

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** February 14, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Simple and easy for non project professionals to use.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Lots.    There is no successors functionality.   Not able to view critical path with those that are close (e.g., a second line that is only 1 day off the critical path).   Resource management not fit for a large project.    Gantt chart has only three options on the time scale.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Used for ERP projects with multiple teams involved.    
Also using for simple (100 line) mini projects --- where Smartsheet is best at.

  ### 24. Basic Functionality is present, but can be time consuming to use

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Information Technology and Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** January 21, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Provides a shareable space to note upcoming tasks and items to be completed. I also like that it shows items in red if they are overdue.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

I find it a bit clunky to use or modify. Project plans rarely stay static, and adjusting the dependencies can be a tricky web to untangle. At that point, it's not saving me time.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Works well at a high level, but if you need more detailed and changing project plans it can be tricky. The integrations with Resource Management don't always work as designed, but I'm sure they would be valuable!

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

In my daily work, I work with clients and external partners. This gives everyone a high-level view of what to expect and who is accountable for tasks.

  ### 25. Smartsheet review

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Financial Services | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** April 05, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

The automatic date calculation is helpful

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Date calculations are not intuitive and easy to mess up.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

I probably would not recommend it to colleagues, there are better choices.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Have used for Project Management, since it's a SaaS its easy to access from anywhere.

  ### 26. Not user friendly

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Real Estate | Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** March 30, 2022

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It is nice having all project plans from the team in one place.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It takes a long time to get s project plan set up how you want it, even if you use a template.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Having each project plan and status visible to leadership.

  ### 27. Helpful Tool

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Marketing and Advertising | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smart sheet has been a helpful tool for our Brand Sales team to create a database that is used by every sales and marketing team member at ViacomCBS. It's a resource for everyone to have bookmarked in their tool bar that links to other important and helpful documents hosted elsewere.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

While our brand sale's use of smart sheet has been extremely helpful, our company also has access to Google Drive which I believe is a duplicative tool. Everything that our teams are using smart sheet for can be done in google drive and it would be very helpful for everyone across the company if we could use one system and not both.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Our Brand Sales team uses this to host all important documents, trackers, schedules ect in one place for everyone across the company to access. It's easy to navigate.

  ### 28. Not intuitive

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Non-Profit Organization Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 01, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Basic worksheets available to choose from and customize. I don't have to start from scratch

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It's not intuitive; I didn't know where to "find it"...meaning I expected it to be on my computer menu...meaning I have used it before (its been a few years) and am going to try it again and it wasn't listed like photoshop, outlook, acrobat, etc.  I had to ask a coworker how to find it and she sent me a link to a website.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

set your expectations accordingly

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

managing a tenant improvement project since the contractor isn't providing his own schedule.

  ### 29. Spreadsheets for Specific Needs

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Sara O. | Admin Aide, Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 13, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I like that you can add documents and email chains to each row to keep information in one place.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

The interface - which is the big selling point. Personally, I don't like the spreadsheet interface and prefer a different look.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Be clear about what you want to use the program for and what problems it will solve. If it's just adding a SaaS without a clear need, it's just extra work to add in projects.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

It integrates with Word so you can save documents. You can share projects and set deadlines, so it's helpful for collaboration.

  ### 30. Resourceful but did not get enough training to understand its full capabilities.

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Human Resources | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 21, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Different project management charts according to each person's preference, connection with Gmail to email notifications when prompted.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Felt like this would all be possible on Monday.com or Google Sheets in a sense. Smartsheets felt like an in between the two platforms that I don't think we particularly needed.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Onboarding new employees through Smartsheet has been helpful in ensuring multiple team members can stay on top of what's been done and what's next.

  ### 31. Great tool, if you have the budget

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** TK K. | Vice President of Operational Development, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 05, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

We use the Smartsheet forms tool often. It allows us to collect information from our clinicians and automatically populate a spreadsheet. It became very useful during COVID-19 outbreaks.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Unfortunately, to get the most out of Smartsheet, customers have to purchase additional tools. We're especially interested in automating workflows for project management, but the cost of the module is tough to justify when other programs include the functionality.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

The major problems that Smartsheet helps solve include notification of tasks to project teams and collecting data from the field.

  ### 32. Smartsheets review

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Research | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** August 02, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

How flexible we have made our system. Multicomponent spreadsheets and lots of collaboration across teams

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It is a very cumbersome system that, at times, is not user-friendly. Unlike excel, the formating and filtering are complex and not helpful to get to the answers we need promptly (requires multiple attempts to refilter or condense the filter searches to get where you need to be).

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

be very aware when you start what you want to accomplish

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use the system for multi-tracking of trials, shipping/receiving and lab sample tracking

  ### 33. I do not think that Smartsheet is very user friendly.

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Management Consulting | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 01, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I like that it is easy to enter data and other documents into the sheet.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

I dislike how hard it is to move various items through the text boxes and how they do not accept a word document to be inserted into the sheet.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Watch YouTube videos to help guide your experience.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have no idea how to use Smartsheet, even after watching YouTube tutorials.

  ### 34. Not Such A Great Tool

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Suzanne D. | Senior Account Executive/Team Leader - NFP Corporate Benefits, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 09, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Ability to share doc. with others and have updated info. go out to all.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Not able to create multiple tabs in a document like you can with Excel. Makes use of Smart Sheets limited.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Sharing of a document to multiple users.

  ### 35. Smartsheet interface is not intuitive and the language can be confusing

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Public Policy | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 29, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I like the idea of linking sheets to the dashboards for information sharing purposes

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It's not intuitive to use and the design is not attractive to the eye.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

Smartsheet dashboards allow us to present select collected data to other team members

  ### 36. Clunky and Limited

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Computer Software | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** July 20, 2021

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheets feels like an outdated tool for modern times. The UI is clunky, it is challenging to share projects, and the design is not current. I would prefer to use a free project management tool vs Smartsheets.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

UI 
Design 
Permissions 
Slow
Collaboration

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used Smartsheets for project management and collaboration for HR projects yet it was not user-friendly and our partners rarely used.

  ### 37. Base Product has promise, extra features + consulting fees very high, sales + onboarding was painful

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Jared M. | Sr. Director of Engineering &amp; Architecture, Logistics and Supply Chain, Enterprise (> 1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** September 18, 2020

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

key things: sheet to sheet linking, ease of sharing, reports and dashboards that link from sheets, ability to import source data to form dynamic sheets.

definitely a great alternative for a PM team that wants to get away from local files or project plans that do not provide great visibility. also keeps us having to manually report out of powerpoint or excel on an ongoing basis.

the true power of the product comes together with being able to centralize via permissions through the sharing capabilities while also provisioning via single sign-on.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

The true powered automations come at a high price, making it tough to start out of the gate with all the needed features you need for a successful implementation. in our experience, sales have been terribly slow to get started with licensing and onboarding. We had multiple calls to arrive to the conclusions that price model for anything other than enterprise licenses (i.e. data uploader, pivot tables, control center) was out of our range. if you plan to do add-ons, basically plan like for like to each dollar of services for every dollar of the add-ons.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

do your homework on the integrations and understand the cost of anything past user licensing. will be critical to budget appropriately for time and materials.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

- Delivering project management functionality of project templates, dashboards and reports. 
- Additionally, supporting program and portfolio views and shared centralized area. 
- Establish a common intake form and position ourselves for further automation and capability. 
- Getting files out of legacy check-in / check-out into a more robust and collaborative user experience.

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

  ### 42. Smartsheet is Not Very Smart

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Ellen G. | Ohio University Student, Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 16, 2019

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet does have the capability to be an excellent program due to it's sleek design and range of features.

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet is not user friendly and often makes it very difficult to find the proper function to work on a big project. I find myself constantly googling ways to do something and those who work with me often are asking questions about how it works. It is very difficult to use.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

I would recommend others work with another program. This is very technical and challenging to use. 

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I use Smartsheet within my company to handle internal calculations. This program allows us to handle business finances in a way that is open to all those we work with. 

  ### 43. Information overload...

**Reviewed by:** Kira C. | Associate Director of Donor Engagement , Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I liked that multiple members of your team are able to view what you're working on

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

It's really complicated (at least the project I was working on) It was difficult to tell what was worked on and what wasn't, lots of color coding and assignments.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Take the time to learn the system/get some training!

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We used it to manage a project with a group of 20, we were building and designing a local park. It was nice that everyone could go on and see our progress, but I didn't want to mess with anything with fear of getting something wrong or coding it improperly.

**Rating:** 1.5/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Health, Wellness and Fitness | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It is useful for sharing sheets with other members in your team. Also,it is easy to use and well built

Needs to add the hyperlink to email addresses.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We use it to share sheets to other members of our team.

  ### 47. Smartsheet

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** October 22, 2019

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

Smartsheet offers some templates of its own to assist with project management and other processes.

I don't find Smartsheet to be that "smart" or intuitive. I find it very limited in what I can do, and even the templates aren't helpful when compared to other programs like Zoho.

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

Smartsheet is relatively simplistic, and should be used for simple processes.

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

My team uses Smartsheet to track projects, and the biggest benefit is being able to edit at the same time. Note: that benefit is not exclusive to Smartsheet.

  ### 48. Smartsheet for PR

**Rating:** 2.0/5.0 stars

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Public Relations and Communications | Small-Business (50 or fewer emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 12, 2019

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

I'm honestly not a fan of Smartsheet and don't enjoy many of the functions.

I think Smartsheet could benefit from better collaboration tools. Our team has tried to use Smartsheet to organize client calls/meetings to replace Google Sheets however, it does not seem to be as user-friendly.  

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

We are trying Smartsheet to replace the Google platform, we don't enjoy it as much as Google, however, we have only been using the platform for a few weeks.

**Reviewed by:** Verified User in Education Management | Mid-Market (51-1000 emp.)

**Reviewed Date:** November 11, 2019

**What do you like best about Smartsheet?**

It was easy to use if you have basic skills with excel or word. It is user friendly. 

**What do you dislike about Smartsheet?**

Like I said before, it is souped us version of excel. You can do many of the same things with google sheets that can be linked to forms. 

**Recommendations to others considering Smartsheet:**

It is a ok program, i just don't know whether it is worth the price!

**What problems is Smartsheet solving and how is that benefiting you?**

I have not benefited from using smartsheet no more than I would have using excel.
