What is Solution Manager?
Solution Manager is an application developed by SoftwareX for Smartsheet Solution Administrators and Creators. It provides a suite of tools to apply bulk updates, permissions, and actions on sheets and assets with similar structures across multiple assets at once. More details are available here
Who Can Access Solution Manager?
Solution Manager is available to all Smartsheet users in the US "Region". Interested users can begin a free Solution Manager plan via this link—no payment details are necessary. After logging in with your Smartsheet credentials, select a tool to deploy updates or navigate to the pricing page on the left-hand side rail to view the paid plan details. Solution Manager users can deploy changes to assets owned by users in their plan.
Is Solution Manager Secure?
Solution Manager handles and transforms Smartsheet data, but neither SoftwareX nor the Solution Manager app logs or stores customer data. To ensure user data is protected, we have implemented an OAuth Flow that requires users to sign in using their Smartsheet credentials. This process guarantees that users log in the same way they would to Smartsheet, inheriting any 2-factor authentication or SSO policies put in place by their System Administrators.
SoftwareX keeps fundamental customer details such as name and email in a secure database that is not exposed to the internet. Confidential data like API keys are encrypted, accessed as needed, and refreshed frequently. It's important to note that we do not retain any Smartsheet content, ensuring the privacy of our users' data.
