Which should you choose?

Fieldwire: Field management app for drawings, punch lists and inspections (by Hilti).

Smartsheet: Spreadsheet-style work management with Gantt, automations and dashboards.

The best way to decide is to run the same week of real work through both — most offer a free plan or trial — and compare how long tasks take, what your team prefers, and the total cost for your number of users including renewal pricing.
