Project or work management platform
Not a CRM - fails on core objects, pipeline stages, status, resolution, value, scope of work, expected close date, actual close date, opportunity owner, linked buyer, schedulable activity types, opportunity reporting; record preservation unresolved
Core objects
Not at all
The API's own object-model guide enumerates a strict Sheet > Column > Row > Cell hierarchy with no separate Person, Company, Opportunity or Activity object types. Everything a buyer calls a 'contact' or 'deal' is a row on a generic sheet distinguished only by buyer-chosen columns.

Verification: Verified
Pipeline stages
Not at all
The column-type reference lists Dropdown List as a generic value picker with no ordering/position metadata and no concept of a stage object. Any 'stage' sequence is a buyer-created dropdown column, not data the vendor's model carries order on.

Verification: Verified
Status
Not at all
No opportunity object exists to carry a shipped open/closed field. The column-type reference offers only generic Checkbox, Dropdown and Symbol types that a buyer could repurpose, not a native status field.

Resolution
Not at all
No native won/lost field or stage-metadata equivalent ships anywhere in the documented column types or object model; any won/lost value is a buyer-built dropdown.

Value
Not at all
The column-type reference documents Text/Number as the only numeric column type; there is no dedicated Currency/Money column type, and no opportunity object for such a field to live on. A currency symbol is display formatting on a generic number column.

Scope of work
Not at all
No line-item/product object or description-box field ships on any native record, because no opportunity record ships at all; what's sold would be captured in a buyer-built text column.

Verification: Verified
Expected close date
Not at all
The Date column type is a generic, buyer-labeled field with no reserved 'expected close date' semantics documented anywhere in the column-type reference or API guide.

Actual close date
Not at all
Same generic Date column type applies; no vendor-reserved actual-close-date field is documented.

Opportunity owner
Not at all
Contact List is a generic column type for names/emails on any row; there is no opportunity object and no shipped owner reference distinct from created-by.

Verification: Verified
Linked buyer
Not at all
No opportunity object exists to carry a shipped link to a person record; cross-sheet references are a buyer-built formula mechanism, not a native field.

Record preservation
No verdict
No vendor page found that states a retention or archival policy for sheet rows, or confirms whether reports/dashboards include historical as well as current rows. Since no opportunity or 'closed' concept ships natively, no documentation addresses this directly.
Verification: Pending vendor verification
Structured lost reasons
In part
A lost-reason value would be a buyer-built Dropdown List column, but Report Builder documents Group and Summary (Count) functions over dropdown columns, so the buyer-built field is countable in native reporting - the documented exception for buyer-built fields.

Verification: Verified
Email sync
In part
The Smartsheet for Gmail add-on documentation describes a one-directional capture tool - copying email content, sender, subject and attachments into row comments - with no two-way mailbox sync and no send-from-Smartsheet capability.

Verification: Verified
Calendar sync
In part
Vendor help documents two separate one-way mechanisms: 'publish' pushes Smartsheet dates to Google Calendar with no changes syncing back, while 'overlay' brings external Google Calendar events into the Smartsheet calendar view as read-only items. Neither is a true two-way sync of the same record.

Verification: Verified
Schedulable activity types
Not at all
No Activity or Task object ships with the platform at all - only generic rows on sheets. There is no vendor-fixed set of activity types (call/meeting/task) and no native schedulable-type mechanism.

Verification: Verified
Opportunity reporting
Not at all
Report Builder's documented summary functions (Sum, Count, Average, Min, Max, First, Last) are generic column aggregations with no native stage-to-stage conversion rate, win rate, or revenue forecast metric shipped for any object, since no opportunity object ships to compute them from.
