Smartsheet, the popular spreadsheet-inspired collaboration tool used by millions of people worldwide, is endeared by marketers according to a recent TechValidate survey. Of the marketing professionals surveyed who use Smartsheet to organize and collaborate on various programs, 91 percent say they’d refer the tool to a friend or colleague.
“Marketers told us Smartsheet solves the biggest challenges they routinely struggle with – having better visibility into projects and improving collaboration,” said Mark Mader, president and CEO of Smartsheet. “With its spreadsheet appeal, file sharing, automated reminders, structured collaboration, and anywhere/anytime access, it’s emerged as the ‘go-to’ tool they rely on – whether they’re managing an event like the NCAA Final Four, coordinating advertising campaigns, or opening a new store.”
