Overall Satisfaction with Smartsheet
We use SmartSheet in place of Excel worksheets that multiple people need to have access to manipulate the data. We use it for meetings/departments that need to assign items- the reminder function allows us to 'set it and forget it'. It is great for collaboration as we have different locations.
Pros
- Ability to have multiple people access data at a time they need, without worrying that another person may have the sheet 'locked' as often happens when working with Excel.
- The ability to set automatic reminders. I use it for those things 60, 90, even 365 days in the future. I tell it when I want to be reminded and I get an email in my inbox telling me a task needing attention (much more effective than the task function in my email that I am great at ignoring).
- The formatting capabilities allow for a lot of data to be managed effectively.
Cons
- The conditional formatting is not as robust as in Excel.
- We have been able to collaborate more as a team, as well as my 1 man HR department has been able to use it to become more efficient with tasks that normally would be hard to track.
