Overall Satisfaction with Microsoft Excel

It is used across the whole organization, but mainly by my department. We use it to track metrics and trends. Some of my favorite features are the conditional formatting, and pivot tables, as well as allowing other sheets to communicate with each other. The other issue Excel addresses for us, is allowing us to stay organized and keep our data in one place.
  • Tables
  • Functionality
  • Conditional Formatting
  • Allow to conditionally format charts
  • Ease of macros
  • setting up things for exports
  • Allows us to really see trends, makes our marketing more effective
  • I like that I can pull data from previous workbooks, instead of having to rebuild new ones from scratch
  • Pivot Tables changed our life
Excel is my preferred product. the code is much simpler to understand than googles code, and overall looks much better than that of Google. Adobe is okay, but not meant for anything very complex. Even if I work in other software, I always make sure to finish my final product in Excel

This is very good if you are tracking limited data, and can automate it. If you are tracking large amounts of data that cannot be automated for whatever reason, a different software should be used. Also, sometimes things go wrong with macros so if you do not have a background in programming it would be very hard to fix the issues if they are more complex.
