Pros

“It is a flexible and effective tool for organizing projects, tracking tasks, and collaborating with team members. Once you become familiar with the features, it makes managing workflows and keeping information organized much easier.”
JE

Jennifer E.

Office Manager

“Overall Smartsheet offers many various functions from multiple project views, real time collaboration, live Dashboards to third party integrations with other software including Google Workspace and Microsoft 365. ”
SH

SHANNON H.

Insurance Team Lead

“Highly Versatile and Flexible: It is not limited to just grid views; it allows users to switch between Gantt charts, Kanban boards, cards, and calendars to visualize data in different ways.”
NB

Nicholas B.

Owner

Pros

“The 3D item library isn’t huge, but they are constantly making updates and this isn’t a critical need of mine”
EW

Erica W.

Owner

“Basic functions require constant workarounds.”
AB

Ashley B.

Iead Designer and Business Owner

“At the moment, not being able to enlarge the floor plan when doing the scale/initial measure (would like to be able to get a more exact measure).”
KB

Kim B.

Residential Designer

Cons

“It’s Not a Real Database:** Even though it has database features, at the end of the day, it's still restricted by row limits. If you're trying to track a massive amount of data over a long period, it starts to lag, and you run into caps that force you to archive your older work.”

HUMAN RELATIONS

“What I like least about Smartsheet is that it can honestly feel like a bit much when you just need something quick and straightforward. Because it tries to be a spreadsheet, a database, and an automation tool all at once, it comes with a few frustrating pain points:”

HUMAN RELATIONS

“There were also a few frustrating limitations where the familiar layout made certain actions seem like they should be simple, but copying and reusing projects, formulas, formatting, or dependencies could be more cumbersome than expected.”

COO

Cons

“It feels overpriced for what you get, and the lack of professional polish makes it hard to trust for client-facing work.”
AB

Ashley B.

Iead Designer and Business Owner

“Furniture sourcing doesn’t update automatically, creating unnecessary headaches.”
AB

“Limited compatibility: DesignFiles may not be compatible with all file formats and design software, which could limit the types of files that users can store and share on the platform.”
