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.
Cons
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.

Like I mentioned - the sales team gathers emails of potential customers when we are at Shows, and when we return from the shows, we will take the emails and enter them into an Excel spreadsheet. It keeps things orderly.
Pros
Our sales team gathers emails of potential customers when we are at Shows, when we return from the shows, we typically will take the emails and enter them into an Excel spreadsheet. It keeps things clean, and it’s easy to use. Reliable.
Cons
We don’t have many issues with excel. It’s pretty straightforward both how it is used and how we need to use it. Works well.

Overall my experience with Excel has been a positive one. My understanding of how to utilize certain functions and formulas has saved me time, increased my productivity, and advanced my professional career.
Pros
What I like most about Excel is that it is an extremely versatile software and is useful for any skill level. Those with limited experience will find value in the ability to make sort-able lists or to store numerical values that they can do simple equations on.
Beyond Excel's most basic functions - the sky is the limit. There are so many efficiencies that Excel can help to facilitate, and the functions that can utilized are more plentiful than one can imagine. Users can write "formulas" that will take data from other cells and manipulate that data into something more useful. You can turn your data set into a chart so you can easily visualize the information. You can use the PivotTable function to quickly take a data set and create a table of information where you can easily change the variable you want to analyze. You can instruct an Excel file to pull data from an online source to automatically keep your data set current. You can even write a type of program within the Excel software called a macro. A macro can do all sorts of things but is primarily utilized to automate step by step tasks that are necessary to complete on a recurring basis. A macro is essentially a way to let the software do the boring repetitive work for you.
If you have a set of data and there is something you want to do with it there IS a way to do that in Excel. You might not know how to create the formula on your own, and you may not even imagine that a formula could possibly accomplish what you are wanting to do, but there is. You may have to combine a could of steps to get the result you want, but if you can see the value in doing more work in the present for less work in the future then spending some time perfecting things will save you so much time going forward.
If you encounter a problem and you don't know where to start or what the correct formula is - just use a search engine and type your question in and hit search. There are an abundance of video tutorials and message board postings from other users who have already solved the problem you are trying to figure out.
Cons
My qualms with Excel are mostly superficial in nature. Sometimes changing the axis value on a chart can be confusing. If you have numbers entered into a cells that is a cell for a date or text it will display differently than you want so you have to go and adjust it. Importing data from a source that isn't designed to import to Excel is very hit or miss. However, none of the Cons even begin to sway me away from the Pros

Microsoft Excel is a great tool overall. It has been a great tool to organize information in a work environment. The icons at the top of the excel files make it easy to create and edit information.
Pros
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.
Cons
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.

Microsoft Excel - Review
Reviewed on 19/06/2024
Pros
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.
Cons
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.

It was good. After learning how to operate complex things, it worka wonder
Pros
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
Cons
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.
