Smartsheet
A spreadsheet-style work management platform for running projects, portfolios and automated workflows.
About Smartsheet
Smartsheet is a work management platform that combines a familiar spreadsheet-style grid with project views, forms, reports, dashboards and automation. Teams can track work in grid, Gantt, board and calendar views, build formulas, collect requests through forms and keep everything connected to the other tools they use.
It is aimed at teams and organizations that manage projects, programs and processes at scale: PMOs, IT and operations groups, and service-delivery teams. Plans separate paid Members from free Contributors, and the Business plan adds free Guests, timeline view, workload tracking, admin controls and unlimited automations. Enterprise adds portfolios, scenario planning, SAML-based SSO and directory integrations.
Smartsheet has been adding AI features, including conversational AI inside the product and a way to connect your data to external AI tools. Pricing is per Member per month, with monthly and yearly billing and custom pricing for Enterprise. The homepage claims customer results such as faster PMO deployment and more projects per manager; these are vendor-published case studies rather than independent benchmarks.
