5 Powerful Use Cases Most Teams Overlook — And How to Unlock Them

Smartsheet is more than a spreadsheet with pretty views.

It’s a full-blown work automation platform that, when used correctly, can replace dozens of tools and save hundreds of hours.

But most teams are only scratching the surface.

At AgilizeIQ, we help companies go beyond the basics and build Smartsheet systems that automate, track, and scale operations — without extra headcount or clunky tools.

Here are five underutilized Smartsheet features that can transform your workflows:

1. 🧠 Automated Workflows

Set up alerts, approvals, assignments, and status updates that trigger based on changes in your sheet — no code required.

Common use case: Auto-email subcontractors when their status changes to “Approved to Start”.

2. 🏗️ Master Dashboards

Dashboards are not just for showing metrics — they’re powerful command centers.

Common use case: A portfolio-level dashboard showing live project statuses, overdue tasks, and financials — all in one place.

3. 🔁 Row Reports for Cross-Project Views

Create smart reports that pull rows from multiple sheets into one view — filtered by team, status, region, etc.

Common use case: See all “In Progress” work orders across 100+ jobs in one clean table.

4. 📎 Form Submissions + Attachments

Smartsheet forms can collect data, files, and photos straight into the right rows.

Common use case: Field teams upload site photos directly to the job row — no emails, no chasing.

5. 🔌 Integrations (The Game-Changer)

Smartsheet can integrate with tools like QuickBooks, Slack, Google Sheets, Toggl, and NetSuite — even if Smartsheet doesn’t offer it natively.

Common use case: Sync QuickBooks invoices into Smartsheet daily to track payment status at a glance.

🎯 Don’t Just Use Smartsheet. Maximize It.

Most businesses barely tap into what Smartsheet can really do.

That’s where AgilizeIQ comes in.

Smartsheet automation systems
Custom integrations
Scalable dashboards and project templates
