Two Ideas to Make SmartSuite Shine Even Brighter!

Hi SmartSuite Community,

I'm an Airtable expert, but lately, I've been exploring other work management tools like SmartSuite, Seatable, and Monday.com. While I'm impressed with SmartSuite's features and permissions, I found Airtable slightly smoother and more familiar due to its longer presence in the market.

However, SmartSuite is catching up quickly with unique new features. To make it an even stronger contender, I propose two key improvements:

1. Formula Formatting Magic:

• Currently, formatting data from formulas is limited, making it hard to visualize it effectively.

• My suggestion: Allow flexible formatting of formula results. For example, displaying dates from formulas directly on the calendar view would be game-changing!

2. Automation Scripting Power:

• While automation is great, the lack of coding options (like JavaScript or Python) restricts advanced customization.

• My idea: Introduce optional scripting within automation for power users. This would unlock a whole new realm of possibilities for SmartSuite!

I believe these additions would make SmartSuite a top choice for even more users. What do you think? Share your views and let's make SmartSuite even better together!
