The Verdict
Smartsheet is built for enterprise and project managers, with a focus on sheets and gantt-charts. TeamGantt targets project managers and construction and leads with gantt-charts and task-dependencies.
On pricing, Smartsheet is the clear winner for budget-conscious users — starting at $9/mo compared to $19/mo for TeamGantt. That $10/mo difference adds up quickly for growing teams.
Smartsheet has a free plan, which gives it a meaningful edge for individuals and small teams exploring their options. TeamGantt requires a paid subscription from day one.
Both tools are a solid fit for project managers — in those cases, the decision often comes down to workflow style and how your team prefers to organize work.
