Pros & Cons
GGoogle 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.
TeamGantt
Pros
- Gantt timelines with automatic dependency shifting are easy for stakeholders to read, and reviewers report quick onboarding.
- Business plan includes unlimited managers and collaborators at a flat price, avoiding per-seat costs.
- Builder Edition adds construction-specific tools such as lookahead schedules, procurement tracking and Procore sync.
- Exports to CSV, PDF and Microsoft Project, and calendar feeds sync to Google, iCloud and Outlook.
Cons
- No built-in workflow automations, as TechRepublic notes.
- Project caps of 5 to 20 on lower plans mean costs rise as you add projects.
- Documents, wiki and team chat are not built in, so teams rely on other tools.
- Some users report a learning curve and cluttered views on large projects.
