Smartsheet Reviews and Ratings

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I generate detailed routing sheets for implementing security protocols and contingency plans. The spreadsheets help me identify and prioritize security risks in the data we handle. The notes and comments allow team members to participate. The reports are perfect for presenting metrics. That way, we make data-driven decisions. Charts are very helpful.

Smartsheet is perfect for the digitalization of the data. Also, we use the software for perform the data visualization and management specific task.Every company with sensitive data needs to maintain secure and safe their information. Also, every project or protocol needs tracking and this software helps to improve the workflow's team.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The main way I use Smartsheet is for project management and event management. We do a lot of exhibitor conferences here and Smartsheet is ideal for planning, tracking and assigning tasks as there are a LOT of moving parts when attending a conference as a vendor. Being able to attach PDFs and images to line items comes in very handy with signed agreements, latest versions of marketing collateral, etc.

Smartsheet shines for collaboration. When you have multiple people involved with planning events Smartsheet makes it easy to share and collaborate. For instance, multiple people can be in Smartsheet working at the same time. Also setting permissions for exactly those who need to know is quite easy with Smartsheet.

For data analytics and general spreadsheet purposes Excel is better but for project management and event planning Smartsheet is superior.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Smartsheet is a dream for project management. It makes it easy to stay on top of multiple competing priorities and work collaboratively with a team. It also makes it easy to analyze your productivity and work patterns after the fact with robust reporting functions.

Likelihood to Recommend

If a team is working on a large number of projects with defined stages and competing deadlines, Smartsheet is ideal for keeping everyone on track and informed. It could be seen as "overpowered" if you're just working on stuff on your own.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Smartsheet mainly for project management to help track activities progress, dependencies and completion rate. Its very simple to use and fosters collaboration between both remote and co-locate teams.

Likelihood to Recommend

We use Smartsheet for all kind of scenarios: from a simple task list to a complex project plan. From resources availability tracking to Budget forecasting and tracking.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Majorly we are using Smartsheet for the Project Execution stage, where it helps to track the various activities, and we can easily coordinate and share it with our team members.

Best part about Smartsheet is its readymade dashboards which are very useful to update to the higher management and we can easily take a glance of overall project status.

Well Suited -

Smartsheet is very well suited in Project execution stage. We can easily notify all the team members when their tasks are due. We can create project dashboards to see the project status anytime. we can easily create reports for particular scenarios.

Less appropriate:

At the project planning stage I would prefer MindManager as it provides good visual representation and easy to understand.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

I use Smartsheet very often. Whenever I would have traditionally used Excel, instead I now use Smartsheet as my go-to application whenever I need to make a spreadsheet. The best thing about Smartsheet for me is that it is a collaborative tool. It is veyr nice to be able to leave comments, and make edits on a live document that is shared with my peers.

Likelihood to Recommend

Smartsheet in my opinion is well suited for any Excel-based project where you need to share that document with multiple teammates and the document requires a lot of editing and updating. Any scenario where you need to do extensive calculations and making of picot tables, to my knowledge Smartsheet does not have such capabilities for advance calculations and data manipulation

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

Smartsheet in our company is used as an alternative to typical Spreadsheets because employees can save a lot of time by using automation to collaborate with other employees. Every department that is using Smartsheet replicates their typical manual processes into automation provided by Smartsheet. To create Automation no coding skills are required, so employees feel empowered to create their own solutions and save a lot of time on repetitive tasks.

Likelihood to Recommend

I am an advanced user of Smartsheet, so I help create solutions for different departments based on their business needs. In general, Smartsheet is considered as Project Management Tool, but this part of Smartsheet is only the tip of the iceberg. What I love about Smartsheet is that whatever requirements from businesses are coming we can fulfil them with basic smartsheet functionality.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Smartsheet to record and report on all of the services provided by our organization. We are grant funded and so we need to report to our granters in very specific ways. Smartsheet allowed us to build a really complex and robust array of functions and reports to fulfill this need. We have 30 people using the software, and everything is text-based entries or attachments.

Likelihood to Recommend

Will probably be a waste of money and time, just use Excel. Would not recommend it for what we are using it for, it is the wrong tool for grant reporting or most kinds of reporting. I would recommend it to people wanting to trick people into using Excel over Word documents, or just for keeping company data in one nicely searchable place. Good for really non-tech savvy users who know how to do basic data entry into Excel.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

The smartsheet is used for creating schedule and sharing with stakeholders. It is basically helping us in keeping track of the project particularly for our large scale projects. We mainly used it for task management and automating the work flow. Since reporting formats are mostly not found in project tracking tools but smartsheet provides this feature which we find it very convenient.

Likelihood to Recommend

Smartsheet potrays as best automation tool in order to streamline the flows while there are security issues as the sensitive information could be leaked from cloud based platform. On the other hand limited customization has also refrain us from using the software to the full capacity because all the needs are not catered by the software.

Use Cases and Deployment Scope

We use Smartsheet in multiple applications:

<ul><li>Task tracker including input from online forms.</li><li>Project management planner and dashboard.</li></ul>

Likelihood to Recommend

Overall it's a decent app. We found quite a bit of an issue trying to use their gaant template when it comes to functionality and what this tool can and can't do. Some aspects of this tool are limited (even to the more advanced accounts). Their support agents were not able to help us when it came to templates.
