Welcome to Smartsheet!
Overview
Smartsheet is a dynamic workspace that empowers teams to manage projects, automate workflows, and rapidly build new solutions—using no-code tools they love.
LMU has established a subscription to their Higher Ed licensing package which is available to staff via a chargeback costing model.

Licensed vs Unlicensed Users
User type and permission level both impact how a user can interact with Smartsheet.
- Licensed User - A Smartsheet license is required to create new content (sheets, reports, dashboards, forms); modify sheet structures (add/move/delete/reformat columns), and manage resources.
- Unlimited sheets, reports, dashboards, forms, and file storage
- Smartsheet Dashboards
- Ability to track solution adoption, updates to content, sharing, and more via Activity Log
- Access to the Smartsheet University training portal
- Access to Smartsheet Support and Smartsheet Coaching.
- Ability to create automated actions such as approval workflows, update requests, and more
- Access to the LMU Smartsheet Customer Success Manager (CSM) for assistance with your Smartsheet goals and objectives.
- Box integration to attach files directly to Sheets
- Unlicensed User and Free Collaborators - It is not necessary to purchase licenses for individuals who will be collaborators (i.e., those who need only to view sheets and update rows). A Sheet owner may share a sheet with any individual who needs to collaborate as a viewer and updater - no license required for the collaborator.
Smartsheet for Faculty & Students
Smartsheet offers FREE Smartsheet Student Licenses to faculty and students who attend accredited higher education institutions. Once verified, faculty and students can achieve even more by gaining access to the Smartsheet platform, Smartsheet University, and Smartsheet Certification.
