Smartsheet Empowers Enterprises to Achieve More at ENGAGE Global Customer Conference

ENGAGE ‘19, October 1, 2019 -- Smartsheet (NYSE: SMAR), the platform for enterprise achievement, kicked off its ENGAGE global customer conference this morning by unveiling a number of solutions, partnerships and initiatives designed to enable customers across virtually every industry to drive greater individual and organizational effectiveness.

“I could make a compelling case that fostering the type of achievements that drive innovation, uncover insights, or create value for your customers might be the most important thing your business does,” said Smartsheet CEO Mark Mader during his keynote address this morning. “Our mission at Smartsheet is to empower that achievement in its many and varied forms.” 

Nearly 4,000 customers from all 50 U.S. states and 39 countries are attending the third annual conference in Seattle, Washington.  

Announcements made today include:

• The founding of the Achieve as One Alliance, a cross-functional coalition of industry leaders that will explore how organizations can bridge the gap between people and technology to drive greater organizational effectiveness and achievement. Smartsheet also unveiled research highlighting some of the gaps holding organizations back. 
• A suite of marketing and creative content solutions that enable organizations to drive greater creativity and effectiveness from marketing and creative content activities. They include new content collaboration capabilities acquired through the purchase of an application called Slope earlier this year, three Accelerators for Marketing and a series of planned integrations with Adobe Creative Cloud.
• Smartsheet Aligned, a best-in-class program for the company’s growing community of partners and solution providers designed to drive the creation of new, high value offerings for customers. As an example, Smartsheet also announced today the general availability of an Accelerator for General Data Protection Regulations (GDPR), developed in partnership with global consulting firm Protiviti. 

Smartsheet also disclosed a number of important enhancements to its industry-leading platform during this morning’s keynote:

• Enhancements that make Smartsheet dashboards even easier to use, build and customize. They include a sheet summary widget, new capabilities to customize filters by dashboard user and formatting improvements.
• Conversations in context that help make Smartsheet a platform for both managing and having critical discussions about work. A new panel allows for in-context exchanges at a row and sheet level.
• A new multi-tier capability in Control Center that enables organizations to create and manage project groupings for greater access control and scalability.
• A new multi-select dropdown option in forms, the most popular way to easily collect and capture information using Smartsheet, as well as in sheets.
