NEW design & UI propositions, please take a look and comment

With the recent updates to the navigation interface and a lot of complaints from our users, I created how a simple and effective layout should look like. The current layout takes too many clicks and also the interface is getting too cluttered.

Smartsheet should be simple and effective, with the most as possible data in the viewport. Data has to be the primary viewport, not 1000 options and functions, which they should reside in the Menu / row option, as they are not needed daily.

Other users please join the discussion and let the Smartsheet knows your suggestions.

I'm confused. Do you work for Smartsheet?

I don't have issue with your suggestions other than it still does not help me navigate my sheets... which used to be simple.

Nice job! I like the suggestion for the left side the most. I think that we will see some refinements to the new design soon.

Happy Holidays & Happy New Year!

Best,

Sheet shows BLANK rows, there is a "MOVE rows" worflow, is that why?
Is it possible that a workflow that MOVES rows to another sheet too basically do a CUT/PASTE (like in Excel), and then you are left with BLANK rows on your original sheet? I cannot think of any other LOGICAL reason why this would happen. The users enter the data from an Intake Form, it gets placed onto this sheet. They do…
Sorting not working?
Hi. I have a sheet where I am sorting dates by ascending order. But the sorting functionality doesn't seem to be working. Instead of bringing all items with date values to the top of the sheeting and sorting them in ascending order, it leaves a gap. Is it a result of the "Next Review Due" column containing a column formula…
