Is Smartsheet just a version of Microsoft Excel?

Can Smartsheet integrate with developer tools like Jira?
Yes, Smartsheet offers a native Jira connector that allows two-way synchronization of data between engineering teams and project managers. This ensures that issues tracked in Atlassian's Jira automatically update the row-level data in Smartsheet grids.
