Smartsheet User Group Event Experience

3/19/2025

 
​Reported by: Shahirah Abdul Aziz
My First Experience at a Smartsheet User Group Event 

Attending my first Smartsheet user group event was an exciting opportunity. I was looking forward to gaining insights from professionals on how they use Smartsheet in their workflow and learning directly from Smartsheet experts about the platform’s features.

The Journey to the Event
​

To make it to the event on time, I had to wake up at 3 AM and catch a train from Ipoh to Kuala Lumpur. The two-hour train ride gave me a chance to rest a little more before the big day ahead.

Upon arriving in KL, I made my way to the event venue at St. Regis Hotel. At first, I was a bit confused as there were multiple events happening at the same time, but I managed to find the right location and arrived on time.
The Event Begins
​

The event started with breakfast, where I had the chance to connect with fellow Smartsheet users. It was refreshing to exchange experiences and hear how others incorporate Smartsheet into their workflows.

Once inside the conference room, the excitement built up as everyone gathered, eager to learn and improve their Smartsheet skills. The session kicked off with an introduction to the speakers, followed by a talk from Mr. Chad, a Smartsheet user, who shared how Smartsheet has significantly reduced his team's workload by streamlining data collection through Smartsheet forms and automating repetitive workflows. He explained how the platform helped improve efficiency by minimizing the need for physical documents. After his talk, there was a Q&A session where attendees asked about his experiences and best practices.

Robert, the host of the Smartsheet User Group event, was also there to engage with the audience and answer additional questions.

Next, Smartsheet experts Tina and Felicia presented advanced features like Resource Management and Control Center. These tools streamline project planning by optimizing resource allocation and automating project setup, significantly boosting efficiency and reducing manual effort for teams.
Networking and Personal Growth

​Once the main session ended, many attendees stayed back to network and share their experiences. As someone who tends to be shy, I saw this as an opportunity to step out of my comfort zone and engage with others. I also took the initiative to distribute our company’s keychains as small tokens, symbolizing our interest in future collaborations.

After the event, I worked alongside my colleagues, Rick and Vivien, to complete some tasks before heading out for lunch. Beyond the learning experience, the event also helped strengthen my bond with my team. We had meaningful conversations during lunch and dinner, making the day even more memorable.

The Journey Home
​

After a long and fulfilling day, I boarded the train back to Ipoh. Exhausted from all the activities, I fell asleep on the way home, reflecting on the great experiences I had that day.

Attending the Smartsheet user event was not only insightful but also a stepping stone for me to grow both professionally and personally. It was a day filled with learning, networking, and collaboration—one that I will remember. If I attend the next event, I will aim to engage even more deeply with the sessions, connect with a wider range of professionals, and explore how to apply the advanced features I learned to real-world projects.

To capture the highlights of this amazing event, I also created a YouTube video showcasing the Smartsheet User Group event. Check it out here:
