Smartsheet
Best for Spreadsheet plans with Gantt viewsSmartsheet turns a familiar spreadsheet into a schedule, with grids, formulas, and cross-sheet references that roll individual sheets into portfolio reports. The Pro plan at $9 per member per month billed annually covers up to ten members and adds Gantt, card, and calendar views, plus automated workflows. Reports and dashboards combine data from many sheets for managers who track budgets and schedules. A 30 day trial lets a team test the grid layout before buying, though there is no free plan. The main limit is that the Pro plan stops at ten members, so a growing team moves to Business at $19 per member per month. Smartsheet fits teams that think in spreadsheets and need Gantt views with formulas.
Price: $9 per member/month (billed annually)
Free plan: Free trial (30 days)
