本当の違い
Both offer free tiers, so the real question is what you get when you start paying.
Linear stands out with Keyboard-first navigation and Cycles and roadmaps. Smartsheet counters with Spreadsheet-style project management and Gantt, card, and calendar views.
Linear's Achilles heel: built for devs by devs — non-technical teams will feel alienated by the workflow assumptions. Smartsheet's: it’s a spreadsheet pretending to be a pm tool — power users love it, everyone else gets confused. Pick whichever weakness you can live with.
結論
If you value keyboard-first navigation and 市場で最速・最も意見の強いissue trackerを求めるエンジニアリングチーム, go with Linear. If スプレッドシートに住んでるけど、本格的なプロジェクト管理機能も欲しいチーム matters more, Smartsheet is your pick. Neither is a bad choice — but one will fit your workflow better.
