Assigning multiple people to one task (I see this has been asked before)
I read through some of the threads on this subject. It really is frustrating to not have this feature. One of the primary reasons we started using smartsheets was to have a living work schedule for our employees at my constuction company.

No Bars
I have imported a checklist from excel, set it up as a Gantt (transposed columnar hierarchy,) put in predecessors, and durations. No bars appear on the chart. What's up with that?

Update Request History

Frustrating split of functions vs cost of license types
One very interesting thing for me is the curiosity I get from people around me when they see me using Smartsheet. The low threshold of knowledge to get into it and the "mimic" of spreadsheet (excel) view behind it makes it so much more attractive than MS Project for example.

Combine Kanban flow and Gannt
This might be a post in the category feature/best practice. I do find myself working quite often in a combination of Kanban and Gannt. The feature/best practice I would like to find is a way of handling some tasks as pure Kanban items in card view without soiling my beautiful Gannt view. As an example, if I do need to add…
