Smartsheet Migration in Canterbury
Moving Canterbury organisations into Smartsheet from spreadsheets, or out of it into something else. Arriving from Excel is the common case and the deceptive one — the interface is familiar enough that people import their workbooks unchanged, and then wonder why nothing behaves like a project plan.
Why this comes up
The problem
Project plans live in spreadsheets that several people edit and nobody trusts, and moving them means deciding what should actually change.
What you get
What we deliver
- Workbooks restructured rather than imported as they stand
- Dependencies and predecessors established, since spreadsheets have none
- Formulas reviewed, as some Excel functions have no direct equivalent
- Sheet sizes checked against row limits before committing to a structure
- Attachments and supporting documents given a consistent home
- Ownership assigned per sheet, because unowned sheets decay the same way files do

Thirty minutes, no charge, no sales script. You leave with a written summary of what smartsheet migration would actually involve — whether or not you use us.
Working in Canterbury
South East
Canterbury's population swings sharply with three university terms, so retail and hospitality systems here have to cope with demand that halves out of term rather than tapering.

Smartsheet Migration in Canterbury — common questions
- Can we just import our spreadsheets?
- You can, and you get a spreadsheet in a different interface. The value comes from adding what Excel could not do — real dependencies, automatic date shifting, update requests, rollup reporting — and none of that appears from an import. Restructuring is the work.
- Do our formulas transfer?
- Many do, and not all. Smartsheet supports a substantial function set with its own syntax for cross-sheet references, and complex workbooks contain formulas that need rewriting. Identifying those before migrating avoids a sheet that looks right and calculates wrongly.
- What is the row limit issue?
- Sheets have a maximum number of rows and cells, which is generous for project plans and restrictive for operational logs. A structure that assumes one sheet per year of data will meet it, and splitting with reports for consolidation is the design that survives.
- What if we are moving off Smartsheet?
- Expect to rebuild rather than transfer. Sheet structures, dashboards, workflows and cell links do not translate to other tools, and the export gives you data without the behaviour. Documenting what the automation actually does is the part most easily forgotten.
- Do you work with businesses across Kent?
- Yes. We are based in Leicester, United Kingdom and work with clients throughout South East, including Canterbury and the surrounding Kent area. Most collaboration happens remotely, and we travel for kick-offs and key milestones.
- What kind of Canterbury businesses do you usually work with?
- Student-facing booking and ordering systems, and seasonal staffing tools for hospitality operators. Beyond that we work across Higher Education, Tourism & Heritage, Retail, Healthcare and Agriculture.
- Do you cover the areas around Canterbury?
- Yes — we work throughout South East, including Chelmsford, Colchester, London. Canterbury is an urban area of roughly 160,000+, and we take on work across the wider Kent region rather than the city boundary alone.
