Why teams are looking for Smartsheet alternatives

Smartsheet is popular, but users often leave Smartsheet to ProWorkflow for a number of reasons. Here are the top reasons teams switch:

    • Smartsheet’s spreadsheet-like interface can be unintuitive for non-technical users or teams unfamiliar with Excel-style workflows. This lacks many necessary features to effectively manage large complex projects.
    • While Smartsheet starts at a moderate price, key features like time tracking, resource management, and dashboards are often only available in higher-tier plans or with add-ons
    • Expense and budget tracking features are also limited without customization or additional tools
    • Lack of support provided by Smartsheet means users encountering system issues are left stranded.

Why teams choose ProWorkflow over Smartsheet

People often choose ProWorkflow over Smartsheet because they’re looking for a simpler, more all-in-one platform that includes essential business tools without relying on external add-ons or integrations.
