"Excel on Crack"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

The creativity to make things that work for us. We are a rock-yard, so nothing is tailored to us; everything we have tried isn't beneficial or is needs more than we need. Smartsheets allow us to make things that fit our needs, user-friendly but functional. After the years it has taught us knew things also to increase our productivity. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

Sometimes you need help to create genuinely dedicated sheets. It has possibilities beyond what one can think of, but it requires expert help to accomplish them. AI has helped to close that gap but I do still feel that we don't know the full potential. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"A Game-Changer for Project Tracking"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I use Smartsheet to track my projects in a nice and neat visual way, and I like sharing this with my managers so they can assist in prioritizing tasks if needed. It makes it much easier and quicker to create a nice visual table, and it instantly shows it in other views, like a Gantt chart. I appreciate the ease of use, especially because conditional formatting is very simple to set up and all the possible variables are listed, making the setup very fast. The automations possible with Smartsheet are very good, and I plan to make more use of them soon. The initial setup was very easy, and the sharing and creation of tables is very quick.

"Living Documents for Easy Weekly Project Reviews and Shared Notes"
4/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I love that you can essentially create living documents that can be accessed from anywhere and anyone can be granted access to them. It works great for us because we can conduct project reviews every week and put all notes and follow up items within it so anyone can reference those notes during the week. We put individual stakeholders into columns as responsible individuals and the UI makes it easy for choosing pre-set individuals Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

At least at my company, it's a challenge to get between project documents. I would like to be able to view all the projects even if I can't open them all. Basically I just have to go to the home page to access any of the projects I've accessed recently, but if there's a project I'm added to, I have to ask for the link rather than go through a tree of projects and access it that way.

"Transforms Team Collaboration with Ease"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I like Smartsheet for its ease of use and cloud-based functionality. The ability to integrate with AI is a valuable feature for me. The cloud-based aspect allows me to connect to it from anywhere, even on my phone, which helps with quick alignment. I also find the initial setup to be very easy, and I know the team who set it up found it to be quick. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

It sometimes gets difficult to find the right sheet in Smartsheet. I think it would be better if there was a way to create a board that filters the sheets. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Flexible and Powerful Project Management Platform"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

Its flexibility and ease of collaboration. Smartsheet makes it simple to track projects, manage tasks, automate workflows, and share real-time updates with team members in one place. The interface is familiar like a spreadsheet but much more powerful for project management and reporting. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

Some advanced features and automations can feel complex for new users, and the pricing can become expensive for smaller teams. The platform can also slow down slightly when working with very large sheets or highly detailed workflows. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Streamlined Collaboration and Efficient Data Filtering in Smartsheet"
4/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I like that Smartsheet is an online shared platform that makes it easy to collaborate with others, and provides a wide range of tools/ functions that help with my day to day tasks. for example, I love that you can save specific filter presets. I manage 8 different accounts, all with different data/ information that is unique to each. I like being able to have saved filters that makes analyzing data more efficient. The integration is also very convenient. having the option for the desktop app and the web browser allows me to easily switch tabs on my browser, or for a more focused experience to use the app. The platform is very strait forward to use, and my co-workers before me were always using Smartsheet, so it was easy to learn the mechanics and getting set up. Although I have not yet used the customer support services. I feel that the pricing is pretty reasonable for a professional business tool, and I definitely get my use out of Smartsheet to justify purchasing it every year. I have not personally encountered any AI intelligence while using Smartsheet yet. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

In terms of performance, I have noticed that the web version is a bit slow at times, especially with other users in the spreadsheet. However, I am often working on fairly dense spreadsheets with a few thousand rows of data to load. Also a few weeks ago when I was attempting to login at the start of the day it wasn't recognizing my email and password combination. I attempted to reset my password but every time I went into the Microsoft sign in page it said there was an issue signing in. So now every time I need to sign in it requires me to get a code sent to my inbox that I need to copy in order to sign in. A minor inconvenience to how I used to log in but still an inconvenience.

"Smartsheets Makes Collaboration and Automation Effortless"
4.5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

Smartsheets is much more collaborative than other programs I've used, including Excel. The user interface is simple and understandable. Once you learn to really use Smartsheets the automation possibilities are endless! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

Data visualization hasn't had many improvements in my 6+ years using Smartsheets. The options are minimal and not always the best visuals. There are also data limits when it comes to large datasets over a certain amount of rows. I wish there were better out of the box templates to work with too. The templates included are few and not the best for what needs to be done most times. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Easy to Learn, Powerful Automations That Save Us Time"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I love how easy these are to learn. Since I’ve never been the best with forms or spreadsheets, I was able to figure out how to use it pretty quickly. The automations are also straightforward and easy to set up. The pricing for our enterprise account is very competitive and I have been able to gain so much time back at work. I have been able to automate processes that have been tedious and ensure accuracy of information. My team is actively now using the dashboards as well as the workflows and it's been great. We have integrated it with out site and registration portals and the results are almost immediate. So far haven't needed any support or onboarding assistance for setting any of it up.

"Unmatched Performance and Shareability—A Vital Tool for Our Marketing Team"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

As a marketing professional, my favorite part about Smartsheet is the shareability and the ability to attach any marketing or brand asset to a topic or row so my team can easily review and collaborate in one place. The performance is unmatched, and Smartsheet is utilized at every level within my organization. It has become a vital tool that we will always need in our toolbox.

Going from Excel to Smartsheet was a smooth transition because the platform feels much more intuitive and user-friendly. I especially appreciate the automation features, which help streamline workflows, notifications, and task tracking without needing to memorize complex Excel formulas. For project management and team collaboration, I find Smartsheet much simpler and more efficient to use. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

One challenge I’ve experienced with Smartsheet is around account and ownership management. After an older license tied to some of our projects was accidentally deleted, we lost admin control over several sheets. While the projects are still viewable, managing permissions and ownership became difficult since the original admin account no longer exists. It would be helpful if there were a simpler recovery or reassignment process for situations like this. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Smartsheet Makes Data Collection and Issue Tracking Easy"
5/5
What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I think Smartsheet makes it easy to create and automate customer- or employee-facing forms for collecting and monitoring data. It’s very user-friendly, and you don’t have to be especially tech-savvy to use it.

We use it internally for tracking customer issues, customer feedback on service performed, as well as pulling system data and sharing it in multiple ways. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

One limitation I’ve personally experienced with Smartsheet at All N One is that the platform can be glitchy at times. For example, we created a customer issue tracking form that is supposed to collect issue details from customer service and automatically notify our production and operations managers. However, when users click the form link, it often opens the backend editing view instead of the actual front-facing form. The only workaround is usually closing out of it and reopening it several times until it loads correctly. While Smartsheet is useful for organizing workflows and communication, issues like this can create frustration for employees and slow down day-to-day operations.
