Smartsheet vs TeamGantt

Smartsheet

• Teams that are comfortable working in spreadsheets
• Project offices that need Gantt charts, reports and dashboards
• Enterprises standardizing portfolio reporting across many projects

TeamGantt

• Teams that plan around a schedule and want the Gantt chart first
• Teams with many occasional contributors, since Business has unlimited collaborators
• Construction firms, through the Builder Edition and its Procore sync

Smartsheet

• There is no free plan; a paid plan is needed once the 30-day trial ends.
• Pro is limited to 10 Members and is only available to new customers; Business requires at least 3 Members.
• Pro is capped at 250 automations a month and 20 GB of storage.
• The API is offered from the Business plan, and SAML single sign-on needs Enterprise.

TeamGantt

• Paid plans are priced by project count, not per user. Base is capped at 5 projects, 1 manager, 10 collaborators and 150 tasks per project.
• The plan comparison marks critical path, workload management, the Kanban view and time tracking as Business and above.
• The free trial requires a credit card and bills automatically for the trialed plan when the 14 days end.
• The live pricing page localizes prices by country, so buyers outside the US may see amounts in another currency.

Smartsheet

Sheets with multiple views

Work is stored in spreadsheet-like sheets that can be switched between grid, Gantt, card and calendar views. Timeline view starts on the Business plan.

Reports and dashboards

Reports pull together and filter rows from sheets, and dashboards summarize the results for stakeholders.

Forms

Forms gather structured input such as requests, field reports and feedback. Forms are unlimited on the Pro plan and above.

Automated workflows

Workflows can be built from templates or from scratch for tasks such as reminders. Pro allows 250 automations a month; Business and above are unlimited.

Resource management

Shows who is assigned to what, so managers can even out workloads and plan for upcoming demand. Workload tracking is listed from the Business plan.

AI tools

Smart Assist and Smart Columns help with formulas and data analysis, and Business adds connections to external AI tools through MCP.

TeamGantt

Drag-and-drop Gantt charts

Schedules are built by dragging tasks on a timeline, linking them with dependencies and adding milestones. Several projects can be viewed in a single Gantt chart.

Board, calendar and list views

The same plan can be switched between Gantt, board, calendar and list views that stay in sync. The plan comparison lists the Kanban view from Business up.

Workload and availability

An availability view shows how many tasks and hours each person has on a given day. Workload management and team resourcing are part of Business and Builder Edition.

Time tracking and estimates

Hourly estimates and time tracking let a team compare actual hours with the estimate. Both are marked as Business and Builder Edition features.

Sharing and collaboration

Notes, comments and files attach to tasks, and a public share link gives outsiders a live view of the schedule on every paid plan.

AI project creation

A project timeline can be generated with AI as a starting point. The comparison table includes AI project creation on Base, Business and Builder Edition.
