Kendrick N
CEO
5.0

Kendrick N.: Hi. My name is Kendrick, owner of Kennys Kitchen LLC. I give Smartsheet five out of five. The product I used was Microsoft Excel. I actually created my own sheets, so I was really doing everything myself. And one day I said, "You know what? Someone should be able to help you." I went searching, found Smartsheet; best decision I ever made. Inventory, scheduling, day-to-day operations, checklists, everything I need in one, which is what most businesses like. Getting started with Smartsheet was too easy. All I really had to do was enter my email address and sign up. I did start with the free trial, and the free trial went on for 30 days, but during that free trial, I just couldn't let it go and I've been using it ever since. Recommendations for anyone else using Smartsheet; stick with it for a while. Browse, explore, and look. You'll find what you need for your business, and that's no lie.
