Briefly describe your team.

My colleague is in one location, I’m in another, and we have several freelancers that work with us. Smartsheet is a great tool for us to share documents.

How are you using Smartsheet.com?

We are using Smartsheet to manage all of our projects and tasks, as well as billing. We have also created a customer contact and a web detail summary sheet.

When did you start with us?

May 2007

What issue were you looking to solve?

Data management.

What stood out for you?

I like that you can start with a template and modify it or you can create your own sheet. The reports are very useful, and I like that you can export a Smartsheet into Excel.

What were you using before?

We were using Excel, but didn’t have a shared environment. Every time a document was updated it had to be emailed back and forth. Using Smartsheet has made us much more efficient and has created a central repository for all our documentation.

How did Smartsheet.com address what is unique to your business?

We are more organized with our project management and reporting. We have assigned tasks and a central repository for making sure our projects stay on task.
