Google Sheets

Pros

• Real-time co-editing, comments and version history make it easy for a team to share one tracker.
• Prebuilt project management and event-planning templates mean teams do not have to build a tracker from scratch.
• There is no extra cost for organisations that already pay for Google Workspace seats.
• Connected Sheets can analyse BigQuery or Looker data with billions of rows directly in a spreadsheet.
• On higher Workspace tiers, Gemini can create trackers and write formulas from plain-language prompts.

Cons

• It has no native Gantt charts, task dependencies or time tracking for real project scheduling.
• Missed deadlines do not trigger automatic alerts, so team members have to be notified by hand.
• Large or complex shared sheets slow down and are easy to break when several people edit at once.
• Timeline view is limited to certain paid Workspace editions.
• Dashboards and reporting have to be built by hand or added with add-ons.
