Our take

With teams increasingly moving to remote work across many industries, companies have been reaching for tools to keep operations smooth and communications open. Founded in 2005, Smartsheet is a cloud-based work management platform helping a vast range of companies, from small businesses to large enterprises, plan, track, and report on work.

Like other team collaboration software companies Lucid and Atlassian, Smartsheet saw strong growth between 2020-2022, achieving almost 40% year on year revenue increases through 2022. If the company can continue this success, it stands to make real gains in a global team collaboration market expected to be worth about $20 billion by 2028.

Smartsheet has embedded itself across various industries, with deep integrations with applications from the likes of Salesforce, Atlassian, Google, and Microsoft, leading to it being the first work management sector Unicorn to reach $1 billion in recurring annual revenue in 2024. Whilst remaining broad in application, it is also expanding and upgrading its product offerings; this may prove crucial in further distinguishing itself from well-backed startups like Monday.com and Asana as they begin jostling for market space.
