Microsoft Excel Reviews

A program that allows you to do calculations without using any other program, except for very detailed analysis (logistic regression) (non parametric regression) (manova).

A program that is so large that it is impossible to use or know how to use all its add-ons.

When an error is made in the analysis, it does not say what caused the error.

It makes it easy for keeping track of money and stuff.

It's a little complicated to understand/use.

It is endlessly customizable. It's obviously great at calculations and typical data analytics, but is also a wonderful project management tool and, with some creativity, can be used in live presentations.

I wish there was more in-depth help within excel when your formula isn't formatted correctly. There are lots of resources online and Microsoft's website, but you have to leave the application.

I use Excel in an everyday basis to collect, edit, explore and visualise data. I do the same thing with Jupyter but for a quick first view on data without coding it's usually the best tools to do this.

The only matter regarder Excel is the lack of connectivity with other product. It only connect with Microsoft Office product.

I like it because it is the most used and everyone knows it

No advanced course, I wish there were explanations in the app

Microsoft Excel is pretty simple to use and allows so many options on what you can do with it.

Takes some time to learn all of the features.

Formulas, macros, graphics and everything you need to work in a good way.

Some crashes occurs sometimes. More shortcuts can be usefull.

Very organised way to handle detailed information

Can glitch sometimes but usually works fine

Using Microsoft Excel, makes it easy to organize things for my work environment. It is easy to save and find those items that are readily used at the top of the spreadsheet for everyday usage.

There are templates but I don't feel the templates have enough choices. For instance, I was looking for a calendar that had weekly dates and daily times that I could customize for daily 24-hour periods but there was none. If it was there in the choices, I really could not find it, and I ended up using different software in order to create the schedule I needed. I wanted to create my own calendar but could not. Anytime I want to try to create something new in excel, it becomes a challenge as a beginner user. The help function is at times not user friendly for beginners. I usually would have to ask a coworker for assistance or go through multiple YouTube feeds to get an understanding of tasks I want to learn quickly. In the case of the calendar, the help function seemed to only refer me to templates based on the drop-down choices.

I like how i can easily create,edit and share any kind of spreadsheet or chart that i create.

I actually have one thing i don't like and that is the fact it does glitch occasionally and kick you out but none of the info is lost so you don't have to start over.

I appreciate Microsoft Excel for its powerful data analysis and visualization capabilities. The ability to create complex formulas, pivot tables, and dynamic charts makes it an essential tool for managing and interpreting large datasets. Excel's versatility in handling diverse tasks—from simple calculations to advanced financial modeling—combined with its extensive range of functions, makes it incredibly valuable for both personal and professional use.

What I like least about Microsoft Excel is how tricky it can be to learn the advanced features. Basic stuff is pretty straightforward, but when you get into complex formulas and macros, it can get pretty confusing. Also, working with huge datasets can sometimes make Excel lag or even crash. And collaborating with others isn't always smooth, especially when multiple people try to edit the same spreadsheet at once.

I could express what i want to find with all of the formulas i can use. Especially "IFs" function, where you can find logical value with a lot of criteria. I love it!, it help me so much

Some times when complex formula applied between worksheet, it says inconsistencies formula.

It has been around for so long. I remember the days of dbase. I think that it now has competition with open office and google docs, but if you do not mind paying for good software you should go for this alternative

There is not much I do not like about excel. It gets right to business and it helps me keep track of expenses.

It is one of the easiest data editor software to use, it has plenty of functions and tools to analyze, transform data, and perform calculations. It is well organized, in the sense that all the primary features are displayed to be easily accessible.

Working with confidential or sensitive data would require some security, something that, Microsoft Excel does not offer. For instance, it is easy for data to be deleted, changed, or stolen in a company setting without knowing who did it.

Excel is my go-to for all of my finance and data management. I also like how you can share your sheets with other Microsoft users. Excel keeps all of my projects on track!

It is a little harder to learn the more advanced technology with excel, and it takes some practice to get good at it.

Excel provide lot of things like data import. Few days back i wanted to import 41lakh record csv which i was unable to do so as per the limitation, but due to addin and data import i was able to do it. So I found it really amazing. Even the functions are also good like we can do maths and other operations easily.
Filtration, sorting are also some more good things.
Even now using onedrive and other tools we can share excel among team, so it gets updated and latest version could be seen by all. Pivot is also good feature when dealing with lot of data

For using excel to the fullest we require some training. As i was importing 41lakh data i was not aware to do it, so i needed to google and youtube, then i came to know such thing exists.
Even after so many years of using this product like from school college days we are using it but I am not aware of all the functionalities. That also shows how vast is excel.

It has a user-friendly interface and extensive capabilities for data analysis.

Some cracks take place with the non-Microsolf systems and older versions of files.

inbuilt formulas
search filter options
ease of use

Not so perfect for data visualization and contains very less formats.

The most I like that you can use Excel for many things, it can save you some money and time using some other services. Formulas is the most important feature it offers in my opinion, it can automatically import and sort data from other sheets and workbooks. Storing the files in the cloud makes them easy to share and use remotely, by your or other colleagues.

Let's say the support is hard to get, you find more support on forums and blog posts.
