What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I love how easy it is to collaborate with others. I can share updates with multiple people, organize tasks, track progress without needing separate tools. It's super convenient, especially when managing a project. The automation and visual tools also help me understand what's going on at a glance-great for saving time. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

One thing that bothers me is that sometimes reporting feels a bit limited. for example, I often end up exporting data into excel because smartsheet doesn't fully support the kind of reporting or sheet-based summaries I need directly within the app. It would be great to have more dynamic and sheet-based reporting options built right in. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Networking and collaboration have become so much easier with smartsheet. I really appreciate how it helps me to manage multiple projects, tasks and deadlines all in one place. It saves me from the back and forth of checking different tools or chasing updates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I use Smartshares every day, and it’s become an essential part of my workflow. It brings all the data I need into one place, which saves time and eliminates the hassle of switching between systems. The interface is intuitive, and collaborating with colleagues is seamless—whether we're reviewing reports, checking updates, or working through compliance tasks. It’s made my job as a Compliance & Risk Analyst much more efficient and connected. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

I use Smartshares daily, and while I initially found it a bit tricky to navigate, I’ve now become familiar with the layout and features. It’s made a big difference in how I work—having all the data I need in one place saves time and reduces errors. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Smartshares has significantly improved how I work day-to-day. While it took a bit of time to get used to the interface, I now rely on it daily. It centralizes all the data I need, which means less time spent searching and more time focused on analysis. One of the biggest benefits is how it solves collaboration challenges—everyone can access the same information, updates are visible in real time, and it's easy to coordinate with colleagues. It’s streamlined our processes and made my role as a Compliance & Risk Analyst much more efficient. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

Smartsheet can be really useful for team collaboration, especially when working on multiple projects with different groups. Most people tend to use it daily in their tasks, whether individual or group work.

For leadership, Smartsheet offers customizable dashboards that show real-time data on performance and progress. Whether you're managing global operations or tracking a single team’s goals, the platform makes it easy to keep everyone on the same page.

And from an enterprise perspective, our IT and security teams like that Smartsheet is compliant with things like GDPR and has good permission controls—so we can safely manage sensitive projects without worrying about who has access. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

Smartsheet supports multiple users editing a sheet, but it's not truly real-time. Sometimes if two people are editing the same sheet, you'll get a conflict or be prompted to refresh. I'd love to see smoother, live collaboration with changes updating instantly—especially when working with fast-moving teams.

The built-in forms are useful for intake processes, but they lack advanced conditional logic. For example, I’d like to show or hide entire sections based on previous answers, use calculated fields, or redirect based on form responses—similar to tools like Typeform or Jotform.

Comments exist, but they’re not very visible in the overall workflow. A more robust commenting system with @mentions, threads, and the ability to resolve discussions inline—similar to Notion or Google Docs—would make collaboration easier especially when it comes to weekly catch up meetings. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Problem: Scattered Information and Lack of Visibility

Solution: Smartsheet centralizes project details—tasks, deadlines, documents, updates—into one platform.

Benefit to me:

Instead of chasing emails, outdated spreadsheets, or random file links, I can open a single sheet or dashboard and see exactly where things stand. It saves time and reduces confusion, especially when managing multiple stakeholders or teams across departments. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

As someone working in Financial Operations, I rely on Smartsheet every single day and it has become an indispensable part of how I manage tasks, track approvals, and collaborate across teams. It has made working on projects very easy and smooth. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

I have not faced any major issues so far and have enjoyed the app. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Smartsheet helps me solve a lot of problems in my daily work. It saves me from chasing people for approvals by sending automatic alerts and reminders, which is a big help when I’m handling things like payment requests or royalty adjustments. I can keep all my tasks, updates, and documents in one place, so I don’t have to dig through emails or spreadsheets. It also makes it easy for me to work with others—whether I’m tagging someone for input or tracking progress across teams. I use dashboards to quickly see what’s pending or delayed, which helps me stay on top of things without spending hours making reports. Overall, it keeps my work organized, fast, and stress free.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I primarily use Smartsheet to digitize both our internal and customer-facing request and order forms. As a leasing company, it's essential that the process of ordering a vehicle, fuel card, or charging fob is as seamless and efficient as possible. A smooth and fast customer experience is critical to our business.

We also interact with drivers daily, so minimizing the number of calls and emails to our customer support team is a priority. This allows our team to focus on delivering quick resolutions and positive outcomes.

One of the features I appreciate most about Smartsheet is how easily forms can be integrated into both our own and our customers’ intranet or digital environments. Any updates made to the forms are applied instantly, which helps us stay agile and responsive.

Overall, I find Smartsheet intuitive and user-friendly. Creating forms and dashboards is straightforward, and implementation is quick and hassle-free. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

I am yet to understand how to integrate Smartsheets with Salesforce. Hopefully this will streamline things like customers requests queue management for us. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

From my experience, Smartsheet offers the most user-friendly interface for real-time collaboration among groups working on the same projects. What I appreciate most is the ability to selectively share specific sheets or pieces of information across different levels of my organization, which helps maintain the confidentiality of my projects. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

The excel shape and format. I know it is a sheet; however, how can Smartsheet be little bit different from Excel? Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Smartsheet is solving several key problems related to team collaboration and information sharing across different levels of an organization. It enables real-time collaboration on shared projects, which helps eliminate communication silos and ensures that everyone stays aligned. Additionally, its ability to control access to specific sheets or data helps maintain project confidentiality, allowing me to securely share only what's relevant with the right stakeholders. This flexibility not only streamlines my workflow but also enhances transparency and trust within the organization. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

The best thing about Smartsheet would be Automations. It’s the key differentiator, we’ve started using smartsheet sometime back it has helped saved so much of my time and helped streamline so many processes which would’ve required manual interventions Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

The restriction of number of rows you could paste in one go and the number formulas that can reference a cell can make things hard sometimes while working on a simple smartsheet Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

We have large enterprise clients and we need to create Dashboards and track metrics for them and we definitely don’t want any of them to see each others data, so we update a single sheet which feeds into their individual dashboards and publish links to their Dashboard are shared with them, which wasn’t possible earlier. We would have to update multiple google sheets manage charts dashboards etc separately for so many customers.

Next are our internal processes which need reminders, updates etc for the employees which is basically directly done from smartsheet without manual intervention. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

Parent child relationship

per line data storage and communication

workflows

Available anywhere, sharable Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

Poor per cell control like colors fonts and other very standard Excel capabilities

Cost

over simplification of the UI and constant changes ... at a certain point simplification becomes confusing... we're all adults here not in grade school

I want a button and i want a description of the button and a full menu of capabilities to picjk and choose from as I see fit ... not some smartsheet designers next iteration of the UI because that's their Job ... Its a tool I use and I get tired of guessing how to use it because you changed it AGAIN Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

we are a design group ... but NOT digital design or Marketing (which I feel Smartsheet forgets that the world is not actually digital or all about marketing)

Smartsheet allows me to track a portfolio of projects and collaborate with both stakeholders and labor. Smartsheet's ease of use has gone down over the years IMO because of confusing and oversimplified UI. I don't need or want AI or 3rd party integrations forced down my throat or forced into the work styles that Smartsheet thinks everyone needs to be in.

Templates are good ... but see above Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

I love that you can build a database and then build different things from the database. In my line of work, different departments have different needs. But it all revolves a single database so everyone is has access to what they need and everyone can be on the same page. This allows us to build different areas that all connect back to the main data sorce. With the abilty to create a dashboard for a quick overview of whats going on in different parts. It has been a major help to push out business further. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

Only downside I have ran into, is the time it takes to understand how things can work together. It took a bit of trial and error to really understand the full potienal this software has to offer. But once you understand and know your way around, its next level. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It allows us to have all of our Fleet vehicle information in one spot. then allows us to build off of that for different departments to make things more efficent and clear for everyone and what their responsabilties are. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about Smartsheet?

Smartsheet has been an invaluable tool for the projects I’ve been working on. I appreciate the ability to set up automated reminders, attach documents directly to rows, and communicate with team members within the sheet itself. The automation features are especially helpful—once a rule is created, it runs on its own. For example, I’ve set up a rule to automatically highlight vacant spots on my sheet, making them easy to spot at a glance.

I also really like the parent/child row structure, which allows me to organize information hierarchically and collapse sections I don’t need to see. This keeps my sheets clean and focused without losing important details.

Smartsheet offers a wide range of features, and I’m excited to continue exploring everything it can do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Smartsheet?

One feature I wish Smartsheet had is the ability to use tabs like in Excel. Tabs are incredibly convenient when working on related components of a project that don’t necessarily need to live in the main sheet. Having the option to separate information while keeping it within the same document would make managing complex projects even easier. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

Smartsheet is helping me solve the challenge of tracking multiple ongoing projects in an organized and efficient way. Being able to share sheets with collaborators, attach relevant documents directly to rows, create automated rules, and set reminders all in one place has streamlined my workflow. It reduces the need to chase down information across emails or other platforms and helps ensure that nothing falls through the cracks. These features make project management more transparent, collaborative, and manageable. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
